UUnfortunately, I agree with you, as uninspiring a manager as Deano would make. Top probably sees him as Pearson MK2 what with his proper football man (PFM) bravado.

I don’t think Smith was as bad as some fans made out - we had two fundamental issues of goalkeeper and fitness - that he couldn’t solve. Don’t get me wrong, Iversen was an improvement vs. Ward but we don’t lose 5-3 to Fulham with an experienced, quality keeper. Leno has been massive for Fulham, a big factor in their success.
 

And we performed well on expected goals - it was fine margins in the end. 

 

But agree he’s not the right person - we need a younger, more energetic manager who will reform the club top to bottom. A younger version of Pearson. Who that is, I don’t know. 
 

Rudkin, in among his many failings, appears to lack European knowledge so unlikely we get anyone imaginative. It’s one of the reasons why we stuck too long with BR, he was a one-trick pony. 

Agree on that,  I sat there yesterday thinking he’s finally sorted them out. 
 

If only we had got him in a few weeks earlier…..

Gerrard for me. Did brilliantly at Rangers and will have chance to build his own squad from scratch. Either way a new manager needs to be announced sooner rather than later.

He did a slightly below average job at one of his previous clubs so naturally he should be allowed nowhere near ours. Let's go all our for the failed Derby and Leuven manager instead!!!!!

If winning 1 trophy in 3 years in a league where there are only effectively 2 competitive teams, after the end of a managerial, trophy winning era at the other club is doing brilliant,  I'd hate to see what doing shit looks like.

 

Anyway it's Lampard for me....

Experience of the Championship,  promotion experience on a limited budget, has managed in the Prem before- step forward Sean Dyche. 

If we are going to be adventurous it has to be one of these European managers.

All the managers i wanted went and got new jobs by the time our board got around to binning brendan. so i really dont know now. at least dean smith is already here and can start building right now, without us wasting another month getting our 6th choice manager. but im not sure how good he'll be. honestly, i feel like the manager isnt even the most important new thing we need. backroom teams gotta go

I want some young hipster foreign manager I've never heard off, with great hair and fantastic dress sense.

 

Don't care who, just want that. Let's have some glamour.

I'd actually take Neil Warnock if it was an option.  He's no nonsense and would give us a decent chance of finishing around the top 6 at first time of asking.  And he is known for producing teams that are full of graft, which is what's needed in this league.

His success at Rangers was largely down to his assistant, Michael Beale (who is now their manager)

Bit of a daft comment when the departing manager you mention who opened the door for Rangers, who you're also suggesting had it even easier than Gerrard, was our last managerial appointment and did very well with us (until it stopped going very well, of course)

Would like Rafa also but he likes control of a club from top to bottom, don't think Rudkin would be happy with that.

Good. Rudkin can do one
