placidcasual Posted 22 February 2007 Share Posted 22 February 2007 Steve Nicol Tony Adams Fernando Clavicjo Nicol has done a good job with New England. Very good in the regular season but they have lost 2(i think) MLS cup finals whilst he has been in charge Plays defensively when he has to win. Nicol also has a reputation of developing good players, eg Clint Dempsey who has just moved to Fulham. For those of you who don't know who Clavijo is. Has the same problem of winning the "big one" Bio Either of them would be an interesting choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thracian Posted 22 February 2007 Share Posted 22 February 2007 I saw Steve Nichol lots of times. Comparing Nichol and Kelly's playing records is like comparing Arkle with Dobbin. Nichol's teams had a through-the-side attacking philosophy so he ought to have pictures in his mind of what he'd want to achieve. But he's another defender turned manager. Doesn't anyone employ attackers?. Is that the hidden reason for football's pre-occupation with safety first?. Or is it really just the money, the greed and the fear of risk?. ****Steve Nichol played for Liverpool as a defender and midfielder when Liverpool won four English League Titles, three F.A. Cup Titles and the 1984 European Cup. In 1989, he was named Footballer of the Year by England's soccer writers. He also played on the Scottish National Team between 1984 and 1992 and started at the 1986 World Cup in Mexico. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Nicol .

chesterfox Posted 22 February 2007 Share Posted 22 February 2007 Let's just take a brief look at the Pompey template: several managers - mostly unknown no marks from abroad - several sackings including the best of a bad bunch HR - whose return was the only real correct decision thus saving Pompey from the drop. Then come in new investor = pretty profit. What precisely has RK done to upset so much?? I can remember the dross served up last season and the fear of seeing us drop down even further - now admittedly it hasn't been much better this year but we are going in the right direction and I for one feels he deserves a little more respect. We have already had the opportunity to get a big name in Iain Dowie and I am sure there are others but unless there is somebody outstanding I cannot see the sense of getting rid. Things will happen differently - he will either progress and we will improve or it will become obvious that he can take us no further and the decision will be clear.

El_Thief Posted 23 February 2007 Share Posted 23 February 2007 This thread amuses me, thats it, theres no facts here, just completly unsubstantiated rumour! they all are in most parts but thats whats football about, if we had nothing to talk about or moan about it wouldn't be as popular, untill the end of the season we will not know what will happen for sure with RK or playing staff, need to give them abit of chance or we will become a club that has a manager coming and going every 18 months and will be going no where fast, need to have abit of stabilty and faith, you only have to look at west ham and see that changing manger doesn't change ur fourtunes straight the way, sometime abit of time and faith are needed but everyone has there own thoughts an ideas of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geo V Posted 23 February 2007 Share Posted 23 February 2007 Steve Nicol Tony Adams Fernando Clavicjo Steve Nicol is doing well in the States but has been living there for so long that I wouldnt be confident in him being upto date with English players. Adams has failed in his first attempt as manager at Wycombe so I wouldnt bother with him as he isnt ready and the other dude I cant comment on because I havent a clue who he is. As some people think this thread is a waste, lets waste it a little more !! Name 3 managers who you would like to replace RK, with the choices being realistic(ish)!!!! My choices are, in order of preference... 1. Kevin Keegan - Will always be remembered for walking out of England but has taken Man City and Fulham up in similar circumstances to us. He attracts good players and plays decent football. 2. Glenn Hoddle - Did very well at Swindon albeit ages ago, then was doing a great job for Chelsea before England made him manager. Even there he was doing OK before being sacked for being a weirdo . He messed up at Wolves although he drew far too many games with them as apose to losing that many. 3. Jamie Redknapp - A strange choice and it goes against the grain to what my typical thoughts of management are. (that a manager should be experienced). I mention him because out of most pundits out there he seems to talk sense and have a great football briain. Im sure that he has learned plenty for his dad and I would risk bringing him to the club ahead of these so called highly rated people currently in management jobs like Holloway, Newell, Ince and Cotterill who havent actually donn much good where they currently are but seem to be wanted by some fans.

Cheese Me Posted 23 February 2007 Share Posted 23 February 2007 Barking up the wrong tree old KK will be here in the summer! How I'd love to see that. A bit of passion, a bit of enthusiasm and a bit of fun back to the team after years of boring football, cr@p results and no one in charge really seeming to care enough. He may be a bit tactically naive at times (but in the opposite way to Kelly - he doesn't know when to defend whereas Kelly sometimes doesn't know when to attack) but he's got history of getting clubs out of this division and he'd certainly excite the fans.

Ric Flair Posted 23 February 2007 Share Posted 23 February 2007 All 3 sound wafty managers. I wouldn't go near any of them, but i'll back Mandaric should he decide one of these are better than Kelly. Mandaric wants success, he will have to get a good manager to achieve this, so it's in his court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 23 February 2007 Share Posted 23 February 2007 Kevin Keegan would be a huge piece of the jigsaw to make it the ultimate rollercoaster under Mandaric's ownership. I wonder whether he'd come back to management? What doies he do these days? Doesn't even do any TV work does he?. I'd love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
