I might be totally wrong, but I really don’t see how he can carry on playing with the amount of set backs he’s had with injuries, and if he chooses to go into a managerial role, where better to start
than his home town club?

I have no time for this current board, I think having someone who isn’t financially reliant on the job, puts him into a position of strength

To put it bluntly I doubt he’d take any crap from them

Also at the back of my mind is still the complete f&@Ł up years ago when Toshack wanted to come back as a coach and the board at the time missed a massive opportunity to get a home grown player back

As I said earlier, I might be completely wrong
I see what you are saying and I think he could make a Manager, I don't think it would be advisable here, we are a shit show, and we probably need an experienced old head thats been there and done the type of rebuild we need.
