Why can't Top just go and get Challinor,  he wasting so much time as usual, when will the man realise he's out of his depth. 

I hope this is another (deep cut) fish and ocean related pun.

He probably could if he wanted. The problem is, he won't want to. It is becoming clear that Top has still not let go of his obsession with Man City, and Challinor will not be regarded as being in that mold. Challinor's teams tend to dominate the ball, but he likes to move the ball forward quickly and rejects sterile possession. It seems Top still believes that possession for its own sake is the way to go. Hence why even if Martin rejects us, they probably won't even consider Challinor.

The club must be mad as a box of frogs. Totally stuck on this idle possession until we give the ball away and concede idea.

Van Persie sacked by Feyenoord. 
What could possibly go wrong with hiring an ex Man United forward?? :ph34r:

Hiring his assistant manager instead sounds like a better idea to me..... :ph34r:

He wants a big fish for his small pond.

Another Dutchman 

Same agent as Dick Schreuder

Not to mention he knows and worked with Ruud... I bet Ruud wanted to bring him here but we didn't have the cash.

 

What is it with us and asking former managers for ****ing advice lol

I can just imagine Top phoning Maresca to ask his advice on hiring Guardiola.

Yep ****ing clueless, just get the best man for the job to win promotion from league 1 at the first attempt. 

 

- Martin has a win percentage of 38%, 1 promotion in 5 seasons. 

 

- Hake 36% 0 promotion in 10 seasons, and most people have probably never even heard of him, I hadn't. 

 

-Challinor 50%, 7 promotions in 15years and lowest ever finish is 5th

 

Only Top would think of employing the first 2.

Hake looks interesting, a few underwhelming spells but did well at Go Ahead Eagles. This is worth a read.

id take him over Martin but he doesn’t blow me away 

 

There's one of these articles written about every coach in the world through the eyes of a briefly optimistic football hipster that was convinced said coach was an incredible visionary who believed in the perfect mix of control, use of space, high pressing, counter attacking, fast direct attacks but also knowing how to build from the back. 

 

I can find you articles about Cooper, Ruud and Cifuentes that will all say the same.

It was first reported we were interested in Martin more than two weeks ago. These discussions do seem to be dragging on a bit, don't they? Anybody else get the sense that Martin is far from convinced by our offer and is dragging it out while he talks to other clubs?
