Cannot see why Allardyce is thought to be a runner. He left Palace, as he said at the time, to retire from managing clubs. Quite clearly he is now demotivated, does not need either the money or the hassle. The loss of the England job has left it's mark and like so many England managers before him he will never be the same again. The pre-England Allardyce as a candidate "yes"; the post-England Allardyce a definite "No". That also goes for any other former England manger that may be mentioned.

With every manager appointment in recent years I feel my heart sink just that little bit more. I think it'd drop out my ares if we appointed FatSam TM.

Time to whittle the poll down to something a little more realistic.

Sam Allardyce
David Moyes
Nigel Pearson
Dean Smith
PWS


Honestly if that was the options I'd go for PWS at least he's likely to listen to reason and dump c**ts like Gabby and Richards.

I'll just threaten them that they'll be watching endless shite horror films if they don't perform. And make sure they know that when I say "do you want to play a game?" it has a totally different meaning.

Own up. Who is the one person who said Steve McLaren?

Maybe they misread it as Steve McFadden.

So Steve McLaren made the list, but Aitor Karanka didn't!

In which case 'team bonding' would involve 'dogging missions'.

Can we add Stan Collymore to the list ?

Sorry to intrude on private grief.

If the alternatives are Allardyce,Pardew,Moyes,Pearson etc then why bother getting rid of Steve Bruce ? All you’ll get are the same soundbites,platitudes and bullshit but delivered in a different accent. Combined with the same turgid tactics and performances.

As someone once said the definition of insanity is ‘doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results’

This is when Steve Bruce lost all credibility at Stans : A few years ago he said ‘ pound for pound Damien Johnson is the best signing I’ve ever made’ . That’s THE Damien Fkin Johnson !!

Paul Jewell likes a bit of extra marital fun with other peoples wive's outdoors on car bonnets. David Pleat probably knows a good car park to go to.

Definitely on there all along  ;)

If we can get Jokanovic, he would still be my first choice. If we were picking from unemployed managers, I'd go Karanka.

They're not the only alternatives though. Although sadly, a lot more likely than some of the names on our poll.

As we forgot Karanka, if anyone wishes to change their vote to him, or to anyone else, you can click on "Remove vote" and then vote again.
