NotTheMarketLeader Posted 23 October 2017 Posted 23 October 2017 I’d rather have Dyche. He is tactically astute, takes no shit and would engender a positive team ethic as he has at Burnley. This bloke looks weak to me; our players could have him on toast by Christmas. More to the point I want to be entertained.

Sol thewall Bamba Posted 23 October 2017 Posted 23 October 2017 Could do a lot worse. Gets my backing.
Max Power Posted 23 October 2017 Posted 23 October 2017 Had a good career, adaptable. Imagine Appleton will stay on as assistant. We could do a lot worse.
somebum Posted 23 October 2017 Posted 23 October 2017 Yeah, its true. Deal done apparently. Not blown over by this. Close other manager threads

Koke Posted 23 October 2017 Posted 23 October 2017 1 minute ago, Sol thewall Bamba said: Could do a lot worse. Gets my backing. Agree. Could definitely do a lot worse. He's got a decent CV, and for a club our size he could be decent. Southampton finished 8th and got to a cup final under him. He's by no means perfect but considering who we could get Ì will back him.
totbl Posted 23 October 2017 Posted 23 October 2017 At first I agreed with us removing Shakespeare, but I felt bad for him. It then became clear we had no one lined up, and still the names we're (realistically) linked with are either average at best, or very poor. If we appoint this guy, he won't last. It's pretty obvious he's the kind of manager in a season or twos time, we'll be in the same position again, and then we risk becoming a club who changes it's management every year or so with diminishing returns, fighting relegation. From a business planning perspective, the idea of removing someone like CS without much plan as to who replaces him is a joke. Yes he needed to go, but we could have been much more shrewd with it. Honestly, out of all the names mentioned, I'd rather have Nigel back.
Ozwin Posted 23 October 2017 Posted 23 October 2017 Our owners have a decent track record but this just strikes me as a stop gap for someone else further down the line. Deffo not a dynasty forming manager is he? inb4PuelwinsustheCL

Max Power Posted 23 October 2017 Posted 23 October 2017 The thing is, if the short term goal is establishing us as a Premier League team like Saints/Stoke whatever, sometimes you need these fairly dull but steady appointments. As exciting as it is lurching from title win to relegation battle isn't really on and we've found ourself in two after our big moment. 2-3 years of solidity under Puel and we see where we are.

Milo Posted 23 October 2017 Posted 23 October 2017 FFS - dull as they come. Southampton couldn't wait to get rid of him after he bored the fans half to death. Deep joy
TheUltimateWinner Posted 23 October 2017 Posted 23 October 2017 He didn't even do bad at Southampton. Fairly solid appointment.
adam Posted 23 October 2017 Posted 23 October 2017 God nos how our owners or rudkin thinks this bloke is a better bet than dyche. Depressing appointment
