I vote @Ric Flair

....very much scouting...!!!

Your suggestion is very much a Brendan take, on utilising resources. 

Col City Fan as manager(he never stops shouting, so would keep the players honest on the pitch).

Strider as his number two, for balance and someone the players could relate to.

  As for actual players it would have to be Matty James, you just know that his career has more twist and turns to come.

Out of interest and on this subject, who is the best former Fox to go into management?

At the moment I can think of Mark Robins doing wonders at Cov, Neil Lennon did okay for a time at Celtic, there’s a few like Wellens and Grayson who pop their head around the lower leagues.

Going way back Don Revie was a great manager for a time at Leeds.

I’m probably forgetting someone obvious, but can’t think of a former player who has gone on to have a really successful management career.

Mancini.

Marcin Wasilewski - basically if you underperformed he'd feed you to his dogs

Of the players who appeared during our 2015/16 Premiership winning season, who would you most like to manage the club at some point in the future?

What part of 2015/16 season do people not understand 😂😂😂😂

I'd personally hate the idea of one of our legends managing the club in the future.

 

Don't like the idea of knives being out when they have a bad run of games or they are just generally shi te.

E.g. Frank McClintock

 

Before my time but by all accounts a great player for the club in the early 60's, then returning as manager to oversee one of the worst seasons in the club's history.

Don't wait around for Robert Huth ...

 

Huth is now looking into a career as a sporting director, having tried his hand at TV pundit work and finding that it "really isn't that much fun". Berlin clubs Union and Hertha are his ideal destinations with a return to the Premier League unlikely as the 35-year-old considers English clubs "a bit behind". However he has not even watched a game live since retiring.

 

To the question of his last visit to a stadium, Huth replied: "Most recently I was at a Leicester game, last [season]." The former defender went on to describe football as a bubble. Huth said: "Only now, after my active career, do I realise how unimportant football really is.".

 

That's from the Sun, but it jibes with a couple of interviews I've seen.  Personally I want to see him star in the next Batman remake.

A solid vote, but I think you’re supposed to add “one thousand likes and this happens”

I’m not a rep point pusher like some @StanSP

I think you have me confused with @Ric Flair?

 

[DANGEROUS TIGER]

None of them.

[mozartfox]

I would give Keith Vaz a try.  Lots of Eastern European connections. He would keep it tight at the back.

I did it for a laugh once and made a mockery of the whole rep game. Its too easy for someone like me.
