Pearson.  Two promotions. Right 'tool' for the job.

Pearson couldn't handle the pressure at Leicester. He will cave under the scrutiny here. Will all end in tears if he is appointed.

Accoridng to Sportsday on the Beeb Gary Monk has thrown his hat into the ring (why wouldn't he!) and so has Ruud Gullit, which is suprising.....

Gary Monk might be a decent manager someday but this is not a job for juniors or for cutting your managerial teeth.

As has already been proven twice, let's hope the club has finally learnt a lesson.

I do not care who the new manager is, as long as the board backs him in getting rid of all of the overpaid assholes who have got us relegated!!!

I'd be reasonably happy with Moyes because of the situation we are now in
but iv'e always found him to be a tad boring, predictable and unadventurous, maybe that's what we need

of course the biggest positive to appointing Moyes would be to shut Saunders heroes up, and as soon as something goes wrong give him a right load of shit about it

I think the same about Gary Neville too. We can't afford to get this one wrong, more so than other. For me that means someone who knows the league and has a record of getting sides promoted in recent years. That criteria alone isn't enough of course; they have to be a good fit for the here and now.

This is  my view too. All candidates are flawed in my opinion, Moyes the least.

Tony Cascarino in The Times would like to see Chris Wilder of Northampton Town offered the job.
