Will people please stop thinking we need a manager in the same elk as Fat Sam. Why do we? Have we not bloody learned anything? We have a squad with some very good players, probably the most attacking team in the league. Wolves showed last season you do not need a dinosaur from the English league to get out this horrible league.

When we actually pass it around quickly with intent we’re good ffs.

I stepped down coaching Bridport U14 and U16 last season, so am available. The bloke in front of me last night seemed to know what he was talking about. I'm sure he would be my assistant. Sorted.


I was coach of the St Austin's under 11s in season 1977/78 when we won every match including the Wakefield Metropolitan District Cup.

I'm willing to help. Expenses only so that'll help ffp a bit.
I've started managing an U13 this season and thus far we are 3 and 0. Scoring 5 in each game.  More than happy to help out

Trying to compare apples with oranges, Garde came to a premiership club in dire straits and was not able to buy a single player, Bruce came into a championship side and given more than any other manager in the league a lot of which he's wasted.

At some point the club need to think beyond a stop gap appointment and start to build a footballing culture starting with the First Team.
An Allardyce appointment would be the same as the Bruce appointment although Allardyce does have a system and style, it’s just dull and limited.

no one is advocating Sam as the long-term answer - it would be  a short term expediency for the rest of the season with a big fat bonus for promotion. And no payoff.

Someone with a brain. Someone who believes in passing and movement. Someone who "does" tactics. Someone who knows how to build a team of players in their best positions.

It's not that much to ask of someone who purports to be a football manager, is it?

But why do we not want a long term answer now? I don't want Sam or anyone else like him anywhere near our football club,

Nail on head Sam.  It all begins and ends in the brain of the manager.  And everything in between.  It is not about media spin or running through brick walls for the shirt or rolling up wor sleeves, it all flows from the intellectual ability of the man in charge to think lucidity, to think creatively and to think positively.  Play three games, draw all three gets you three points.  Play three games, win one lose one draw one you get four points.  Until we get a manager who accepts that fundamental logic we are are only going one way.  Downwards.

Maybe we could tempt Barry Venison back from his coaching team role in the US?  ;)
