We’re better off with a good manager that gets poached than a worse that stays.

What about the option of a good manager that stays? 
 

;):P

Secretly I thinks that what Rubkin/Top plan, then they can all the potential managers we wanted were taken!

DANNY BOY! 

Should we read anything in to that statement, Stan?! There's only one Danny in our mix at the moment - and we know you sometimes, have 'insights' into what's occurring at the KP!

It was reported he was on our shortlist when we looked for Cooper’s replacement but compensation made it an issue. It’s our MO to follow up with targets - Rodgers and Potter are two examples. 
 

Hopefully the club learned their lesson having seen how well Corberan did but not pursuing him for the same reason of compensation.

Should have paid compo for a manager and not bought Skipp.

be right, Corberan and Rohl both had/have release clauses for the same amount/less than we paid for Ayew

 

just let that sink in with this club

Top level football is a cesspit. Part of me isn’t bothered about going back, but then again I am conflicted given we want our team to compete at the highest level.

I just want a season of excitement good football and goals, attacking football and hopefully us in the top 6. If we are mid table ish going for play offs and it's exciting decent football I will be happy, I'm not too fussed about trying to compete in the prem anymore. We've won it, tons of teams will never even get close.

Worked out well last season.

 

This is why I am leaning on Dyche as if he did get us promoted he could keep us up and the continuity would be there in the squad to give us a better chance of that happening, plus he has already proved it.

 

RVN could get us up and keep us up with his own team he has 6 months knowledge on the squad and what's needed but still fairly new to management.

 

Rohl we would have to pay money to sack RVN and then pay money to get Rohl and if he did get us up there's a high chance he jumps ship putting us in the same position as the season just gone and again new to management, if anything RVN has more experience than Rohl won a dutch cup and finished second in a similar league.

 

I would get behind any of these though so not really bothered who gets it.

The owners playing dirty tactics with regards to his future despite knowing he wants out so he’s doing the same in return. Personally I don’t think you can blame the guy.

If the quotes in the article are true he seems keen to return to Germany. He also has his sights set on a top league job rather than stay in the Championship.

Forget Ayew, no world beater but he offered something. Edouard is probably the most relevant here. How much was wasted on him?!? The board are clueless.

Yes unfortunately all the signs are him wanting a German job and also our inability to move forward means he’s a no go in my opinion. I do think he would be interested though if we actually had ownership being pro active.

He’s not daft tho as much negativity as there is around us, the last championship manager we had got a gig with a top 7 club, and we are still one of the favourites for promotion.

 

So if you can’t get a job In the top flight, a club like ours is the next best opportunity.

Frank to Spurs, McKenna to Brentford and Rohl to Ipswich before we’ve sacked RVN. Bank on it

Justin Cochrane, Frank's Assistant, is odds on to get the Brentford job (he's currently also working part time with Tuchel & England). He's been Head of Coaching at Brentford for 3 years and its just the sort of 'continuation' management that their Board would go for.

So, McKenna is likely to stay at Ipswich. Rohl MIGHT still be available for us, but I think, even if he came, his keeness to go to the Bundesliga, will mean it would be a short stay.

My money is now going on Dyche (unfortunately). I think Wymsey's intriguing post is hinting that.

gonna say thats pretty sound all around, as Frank was assistant before he got the top job too, 

plus I think McKenna signed a bumper deal at Ipswich not long ago and its meant to be £10mil buyout too

so I'd be surprised if Brentford paid it

If we can get back up fairly quickly with Nelson and Monga/Evans around the team that would be enough pure profit to fund an alright Prem side, if we aren’t super Leicester about it all and spunk it on shite
