It's not our job to appoint the next one.
There are enough useless fuckers at the club who can fuck that up without our input.

However, I'd go for Dean Jones.

The Aussie ex-cricketer?

No, it's time now to go.  Nothing to slightly suggest otherwise.

Him and John Terry would probably get along well.

Ads and Mr Smith usually make their point well, even if I disagree.  Rangers have lost, so that 5nobs oik will hopefully be too busy crying into his ale to pebbledash this wake (McGrath willing).

5nobs will have homework to do, surely?

Dean Smith lost 2/2.

He plays good football but he's a streaky manager and not quick to fix things when team goes a few games without a win.

I'd personally try to tempt someone like Mark Warburton. He's an excellent manager at this level and is the sort who actually thinks outside the box given his previous background outside football so a more modern approach rather than the analogue way we have atm.

Nothing so far including pre season makes me think Bruce will get us up there. Get rid I say.
