New Manager.

Re: New Manager.

totally agree, the problems are at Directorial level. We don't have a Board that's the trouble. Two one-offs spins in the Prem getting hammered and relegated have made them think they can solve it all with another manager. Agreed things are looking poor this year.

Re: New Manager.

Apparently he did reasonably well at Hyderabad FC two years ago - until he was sacked for on win in 12. Also sacked for poor results in his last five jobs since 2011. Give us a break please.

It was a joke.

And you’ve just Wikipedia’d him

Re: New Manager.

I wouldn't be shocked if Alex Neil ended up in the running, just looking at who's out of work.

Re: New Manager.

Who can we realistically want?

Throw the dice and gamble Bellamy , Earnie or Blue Matt.

Or another old school manager in an attempt to stay up. The likes of Pulis or Hughton.

Or worse Flynn.

Weve clearly no money so its frees , loans and our own young players.

If we go down L1 wont be easy.

We’ll all hope for some inspiring, forward thinking appointment but will get someone really disappointing, unimaginative and cheap.

Like we always do.

(I only recall being enthusiastic about Warnock’s appointment in the recent past.)

I don’t mind hoofball but it has to be done right.

We look clueless

If he would take it until the end of the season not a bad option

Re: New Manager.

How haven't the club got sacking triggers built into the contract - i.e. lose 7 in a row grounds to be dismissed without any payout.

Is that not usual?

Football is a strange industry where it seems a lot of normal rules/norms don't apply

Hoofball is seen (rightly so) as a negative in football. I don't want hoofball and I'm sure the majority of City fans don't either. Hoofball implies just hit it anywhere, the higher the better! However, direct football is entirely different. In the season we went up with Warnock, we played some wonderful direct football early in the season, most notably when we beat Wolves away. There was a real purpose to it and passes weren't going astray. I could certainly take that kind of directness but I've had a guts full of hoofball.

Re: New Manager.

For me, Morrison until the end of the season. Let's get this appointment right!!! If not we'll be back here this time next season with another new manager thread

We don’t know if he even wants it to be fair.

But if so get him in til Christmas with Hudson as assistant.

Re: New Manager.

I may be completely wrong and naïve, but as others have said, I think the problems run deeper / higher than MM.

McCarthy, like Warnock, is an old school, wiley manager who has been around the block more than enough times. If he's not getting what he wants then, at a guess, I'd have thought he well knows how to show and share his dissatisfaction. I.e.. if you don't back me in the transfer market, this is what we end up with on the pitch. And thus he'll be quite happy to stick this out until they pay him off and sack him. Therefore it comes down to money...on and off the pitch.

Re: New Manager.

Feel like I’d be in a minority but I’d fancy Frank Lampard, has links to Chelsea for loan players and he played some lovely football the year derby lost the play off final
