Not advocating we sign him up, but Farke is a decent manager. Dealt a bad hand at Norwich this season.

Not sure about Potter.

Actually think Terry will make a good manager.

Not sure about Fonseca.

Think we should go for Hassenhutti but would also be pleased with Koeman who is a good manager.

i reckon that sooner rather than later, the current Coventry manager Mark Robins will be manager at a premier league team.

Probably Norwich

Isn't Wilder already in the door there?

Going to Middlesbrough apparently.  Wilder that is.  Alan Nixon linking us to the Denmark Manager.

That would be interesting, albeit a gamble. They play good football, but you never know if someone will make the switch from international to club football.

I’m assuming that there is no actual link to Mancini anywhere? That is the exact sort of manager we should be looking at although I doubt he would come.

Koeman meh and not sure he would do much to be honest,

Don’t see what Potter is all about either,

If the owners are serious about Europe then to me it’s time to appoint someone with pedigree if and when Dean leaves.

Yeah, but we find ourselves in a relegation scrap and we need to make sure we get out of it before we start thinking of Europe.

Is there some clever filter on here that will stop the word ‘Allardyce’ appearing in this or any thread concerning Aston Villa?

Yeah, but we find ourselves in a relegations crap and we need to make sure we get out of it before we start thinking of Europe.

It’s not like it’s March. There’s plenty of time we can get a better long-term prospect in and be miles away from relegation.

Indeed, but the more games they give Smith the more it gets to that point. As a minimum I like to see us average at least a point a game. If Smith gets the next two fixtures, we then have to play some of the top four, and we could be well below the point a game average.

I think the earlier we act the less of  gamble a new appointment will be.

Dyche is a dinosaur, 4-4-fucking-2.

And Brighton haven't won in the last 6 either. I don't know who I want. Someone foreign and exciting who I know fuck all about.

We’ve been linked with Kasper Hjulmand He fits that Criteria

Surely he fails on the 'exciting' bit? One material appointment and he didn't even last the season.

No thanks.

He does seem a little Southgate of Denmark if you read his history.
