We need a New Manager

Re: We need a New Manager

I doubt Dyche would come, he could probably walk into any Championship team with promotion prospects, but if we could get him now we should, what's the point in spending millions on players if the the Manager isn't the best you can get?

You see golfers with thousand of pounds worth of clubs smashing the ball into lakes, ponds trees, and bunkers and then a top golfer with twenty pound clubs smash it onto the green, all the gear no idea, that's half the Managers we've had since DJ.

Don't spend millions on new clubs, get a half decent golfer (Dyche) and get his some him decent unbranded clubs and a few old second hand bargains from ebay, having played golf at a good standard for quite a while, he'll know where to get the bargains and how to use them ��

Sorry is it too complicated for you?

It means, the Manager is the most important person at the football club, so spend money on him and let him get the best out of the players

Re: We need a New Manager

I love the way people say who would come and manage us. We are a championship football club ffs, we are one of the biggest clubs outside of the Premier League and since 2009, all bar 3 seasons, have been fighting for promotion / play-offs to the PL or actually in the PL. There would be a queue as long as Sloper Road with people wanting to manage us.

Instead we have some two bob ex-player learning the management trade on the job.

we are a middling championship club these days, any of the teams with parachute payments to spend are going to be a more attractive prospect than us.

could we attract a manager with a bigger reputation? yes definitely, but it is no guarantee of success.

Re: We need a New Manager

There’s too much hysteria on this board after a run of poor results.
For the first time in many years, we have some idea of what the club is trying to achieve.
No, it isn’t perfect, but the grass is not always greener.

We have a club with enormous potential, vast potential fan base and premier league infrastructure but have always wanted managers on the cheap. IMO sometime down the line Morrison will get the sack. We have to realise that we have to invest in a manager not hope that a cheap alternative will come off. The sooner this is done the better!!

Thats what 3,4,5 teams? Theres 24 teams in the league mun. The Lutons and Huddersfields and Coventrys of the league are not where they are based on budget thats for sure, its good management that has got them punching above their weight.

Besides, even if we are just a "middling champinonship club" its no place for a novice like Morison to be learning his trade on the job. Its still a Top 30 job in the country.

Spot on, but with these numpties in charge we will never invest wisely. I mean, this is a club that employed Russell Slade to be their manager ffs.

Re: We need a New Manager

Unable to score against injury ravaged side. Cardiff strolled through the game as if it were a friendly. IMO Steve Morrison not up to the job.

He has to be judged on his first full season. To be fair, what he did in January was pretty impressive. Half the team are out the door in three weeks. I'm OK with him for now.

It's the same old little old Cardiff bollocks all the time with our fans, it's really tiresome

I'm not entirely convinced by Morison and his personality really doesn't help. He's also getting a fair bit more credit than he deserves imo, particularly regarding young players (Is Davies the only debutant under Morison?)

Dalman literally said that Morison wouldn't get the job permanently because of his inexperience.

Sometime down the line ALL managers get sacked. There is absolutely no guarantee a manager will be successful regardless of his CV.

What I will say however is that by guiding us to safety with ease he definitely deserves a chance to build a new team next season.

Agreed In fairness Morrison has done well, but as I've said before don't settle for quite good, plan ahead and get the best Manager we can get when he's available, like Chris Wilder at the time, now Sean Dyche, these quality Managers aren't available most of the time.

Chris wilder didn't want to join us and there is no guarantee that dyche would - why would he - no real investment plan and a dwindling fan base who some appear to not want to give a manager more than a few months to sort out the playing staff mess that is Cardiff City which is no fault of SM

I would like to see someone identify a practical realistic alternative to what we have who by the way I am overall happy with
