Re: Next Manager

Steve morison 100%
the u23s play a lovely brand of football, and with so many of them coming into the first team he will at least know them well.

Do you think the first team would "play a lovely brand of football" if Steve Morison took over?

Re: Next Manager

Would be surprised if Wilder came anywhere near us but would be the best we can hope for I think.

Why would it surprise you? He's talked to Forest hasn't he? He was in league 1 with Sheff Utd, it's not like we'd be poaching an established top flight manager.

Just think he'd be looking for a club with a bit more ambition than us. Forest are a bigger club, sounds like he had a chat with them and walked away due to a lack of transfer budget/wage budget as well. I think it'd be even worse here. Not saying it's impossible but it'd surprise me.

But I agree with the above poster that it'll have to get really bad for Mick to get the sack, maybe lose the next 3 culminating with a defeat at the jacks and starting to fall close to the relegation zone. I think WBA and Reading are both teams we'll do ok against though in terms of style so probably win one of the two this week and he won't come under much pressure whilst we're 14th.

How are Forest a bigger club than us? They've not played in the Premier League for over 20 years.

Sadly it could be worse than him

When was the last time big boys forest finished above us?

Re: Next Manager

Personally think he was the right manager at the time

Imagine giving a football playing manager this squad - we would have sank like a stone.

He is doing crap but what is required. Bring through youth and allow the transition from our older players and ensure we stay in the league

Surely what we have can be slowly blended into a decent football team? We have a few players who are comfortable in the ball and players like Morrison and Moore who can do a job. I’d rather implement change and finish 18th than trudge along watching guff and finishing the standard 8-10th as ever.

He loves us too, I love his accent.

Re: Next Manager

Wilder had a pretty blank canvas to work with when he started at Sheffield Utd. They were very impressive in winning promotion to the Championship and managed to keep that momentum. I recall us beating them 2-0 at home when we won promotion but thought they were a very good side. They should have smashed us off the park when Pilks got a last gasp equaliser up there.

Things didn't work in their second season in the top flight for whatever reason.

He could be the man next season as long as we have a much needed clearout and he's left to his own thing, not being told what to do by the transfer committee.

not on day one presumably, but eventually, yes

You would hope he would try and get the best out of some of the youth players who need to come up with MM stripping the squad of any pace and Wingers.
Until. January it makes sense to me.

It's been commented the U23s play very differently to the first team.

Let's not pretend it wouldn't be a huge risk, but until January I think a risk worth taking.

I don't think we are in the position we need to make a change that quickly.

Re: Next Manager

Has anyone commenting got their UEFA coaching badges? I believe we need them now to have opinions on here.

I agree. Anyway i'm sure pro footballers can adapt to passing a ball to a fellow player on the floor
