Crikey that was quick. At least we haven't got a game for nearly two weeks, so no rush. Let's hope we get the right Manager in.

The impassive Clarke better just be caretaker - he was/is as bad as Robbie.

Clarke as Caretaker Manager whilst we search for a replacement.

And by 'search for a replacement' we mean 'check who isn't in the shit via the Telegraph'.

Is it too soon to suggest Simon Grayson again.  Especially after Saturday?

I don't like anyone on the poll.  Sean Dyche would be my pick

Pep would be mine, but neither of them are coming.  In seriousness though, Dyche would probably be lots of peoples pick, but there's no prospect of him coming at the moment.  Would have been difficult to get him in the summer, but probably impossible now.

I seriously doubt that if somehow the cosmos misligned and Trevor Francis became our manager I STILL think Gabby wouldnt be anywhere near the first team.

I think the leadership are to be commended for acting so swiftly - also setting a benchmark for the new incumbent that this string of results is unaccepatable.

Mr G Agbonlahor better light a candle and pray it is not Wagner and his valkyries on the way in.  Camping in the forest? Double training? Night training two days before a game?  Master Agbonlahor would wish he had said yes to Reading, or Walsall or anybody.

like others have said the likes of Dyche and Howe etc might well be out of our reach at the moment,
 but I would hope that the new owner/board if they feel someone is the right fit give it a go anyway, you never know
just saying 'he would never drop down a league' and never even asking the question seems a bit defeatist,
those shooting for the moon are getting closer than those who cant be bothered

There is no way in a million years Dr T is going to appoint the faux Dutchman, or I'm a Dutchman's uncle.

If Clarke has to stay in charge for a period of time, his next few games could have a bit of needle.

Wolves (h) - Former baggies boss
Reading (a) - His former team
Fulham (h) - Former Chelsea player
Blues (a) - Well, obvs
