    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

    We look clueless
    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    Ive heard that we cannot afford to get rid of MM. If we paid him off we'd run foul of the Financial Fair play rules and likely get a points reduction.

    Even off we did it might be the best option as we seem unlikely to get any/many more points with him in charge.

    Just dont hire a new manager. Put a current member of staff in charge and put Mick and TC behind the bar on matchday.

    Very true. Too good an opportunity to turn down surely. Or a poisoned chalice haha

    I think Wilder will choose carefully where he goes next.

    I dont think a club heading down with no money is attractive to him.

    Could be wrong.

    Morrison with two 'r's? (Just when you'd got your head around Steve Morison's name)

    Interesting idea!

    That's funny.

    Sadly, wouldn't he have something in his contract about day to day duties and how much responsibility/power he has what he has control over etc?

    Put him on gardening leave and move up Morison on his current wage with the promise that if he does well he will get a new deal. Always a way around things

    Because even with the shit behind the scenes a better manager would get more out of the team and hopefully keep us up.

    Well that's a difference from your original comment, actually agree with that post.
