Neil Warnock is 67 years old. We don't need a bloke very much at the tail end of his career taking on this job. He might have had the energy for this 10-15 years ago. He is not what we need now.
Wengers 66

1) Let's never again compare Wenger to Warnock, or even just put them in the same sentence. 2) I wouldn't want Wenger starting a rescue a job on us at the age of 66.

The Rangers manager wouldn't be a bad shout.

Careful now TV I get mullered on here for saying something similar about King and Bernstein.

day to day football manager is a lot more challenging though. It's one thing if like Wenger or Ferguson you've been at the same place for ages, it's quite another when you are asked at that age to start a recovery job. That's the point I'm making albeit a little clumsily.

The point was you implied 67 was too old for football management, it isn't

And the point I made is that I don't a 67 year old bloke with a very patchy career taking on our job as it is right now for any number of reasons. One of which in my opinion is that we need someone with a lot more energy, career drive and ambition to get us going again.

A lot depends how deeply you believe we are in the mire. After all, we may soon click or gel and go storming up the table.

If you are less sanguine however, then Colin is most assuredly a candidate,  hypothetically.

In practice, Tony would never appoint Colin, and is more likely to go for Sven or Glen.

I think Neil Warnock's age is about as irrelevant as Adolf Hitler's side parting. He has far more relevant defects.

We're not sitting pretty mid table , not quite being where we should be, we're 2 points off the relegation spots with no signs of
improving We need someone in who knows how to drag us up the table pronto Let's worry about the long term plan when we've managed to win a few games.

"This job is going to need a confident, almost arrogant manager with unflappable self belief who everyone respects. "

Wasn't that Sherwood?

Who respects Sherwood? Apart from himself.
