Next Manager thread

From a betting point of view when you know these utter idiots running the club have a record of utter idiotic appointments then it's just on the cards we will get a we will be taking our time to get the right appointment announcement leaving Purse with reigns.

Then despite some excellent interest Purse is given the job. Wouldn't be a suprise with these clowns. Worth a bet at a big price.

Tan seemed to like Russel Slade. I'm not saying he will re-appoint the great man but if he turns to him for advice Alex Revell is at Stevenage and would also be cheap and in line with their crazy appointments.

Or one of Tan's Belgian clubs ex managers.

I think a few small bets at managers at big prices are worth a punt.

This isn't a normal board running the club. If you fancy a bet. Think what these idiots will do next.🤣

I'd go for Tony Mowbray

Yeah I said on page 1 I'm less concerned with who than when.

I can see the statements and telling the FAB now'.the board saying they will take this time for a root and branch review, they won't rush, they know they have to get it right determined to so, they are consulting with experts etc, won't make the same mistakes again.

The FAB will lap it up and think all is well and all the right noises. Meanwhile July comes and we don't have a manager......

See Giggs is in the papers (+ Wales on Line), not promoting himself, is he ?

They should have already started the search for a new manager but you can almost guarantee they haven't and we'll be well into the summer and pre-season before someone is unveiled.

And let's be honest guys. It's ramseys if he wants it. 100%

Just listened to giggs come back interview with rio. He's worth a bet.

Giggs isn't a very nice person, although he was doing pretty well with wales before he had to step down, if i recall correctly.

It seems he wants to go to the World Cup. So that will rule him out.

That really should put Gunter , Bloxham , Purse heading or behind Ramsey in the betting.

Personally I'd love Ramsey to take it.

Hugely underrated wales manager.

He moved on Ashley williams gunter ledley vokes etc when all still playing at quite a high level and brought in rodon Mepham brooks and james before they had developed. Very brave thing to do and we still qualified automically in his 1 campaign!

All through wales history after success we then have years and years in the wilderness. It's what s always has happened. Giggs is a huge reason that hasn't happened this time.

It's hard to look past his scum bag characteristics, although we were playing decent stuff under Giggs once he was settled. From a purely footballing point of view, i wouldn't be too bothered if he ended up with us. He's probably more disliked by City fans because he didn't commit to Wales, only magnified by Bale's commitment to the cause.

We were, he also had a decent eye for coaches, isn't his assistant now Arteta's assistant?

I don't know, you'd probably know better than i would :thumbup: My memory is shot, although i just seem to remember us playing good stuff under him (giggs) And he would have some serious contacts in the game ( i would have thought)

He may be, but he's been out a while, but he did do well for Wales, so we could do worse.

I was all for Mowbray instead of Riza, but what went so wrong at WBA, has he lost it?

Bellamy doesn't exactly have a shining halo yet people can see past that.

I'd be more than happy with Giggs.

Strasbourg head coach Liam Rosenior has extended his contract at the club until June 2028.

The 40-year-old turned down multiple approaches from Premier League clubs to commit to the Ligue 1 side.

Under the leadership of president Marc Keller in collaboration with ownership group BlueCo — who also own Premier League side Chelsea — Strasbourg are on course for an historic season by challenging for European qualification. They are currently seventh in Ligue 1 — which could get them there — with only four rounds of fixtures remaining.

Strasbourg have done that only once since 2005, yet even then (2019-20) they fell short of making the Europa League group stage after losing a play-off to Eintracht Frankfurt.

Strasbourg have the youngest squad in Ligue 1 with an average starting age of 21.4 years, according to transfermarkt, and are among the youngest squads in European football history.’

Rosenior, 40, was sacked as Hull City head coach in May 2024 despite being nominated for Championship manager of the 2023-24 season along with Kieran McKenna and Daniel Farke.

A former full-back, Rosenior started his managerial career at Derby County, having been appointed as interim head coach following the resignation of Wayne Rooney in June 2022 and joining Hull later that year on a two-and-a-half year contract.

He was dogshit, hope that clears that up.

Mowbray please.

We need Bellamy, but he's busy with Wales.

Hire new DOF, get Bellers and back him. Can do a Birmingham

I think Giggs could motivate some of these sloppy fuuckers with a quiet word saying "Sunshine, if you don't buck up your ideas, you're going on loan to Elgin City and I'll be popping round yours to see how your missus is doing?"

Throw in a bit of football knowledge and Giggs could be the perfect motivator?
