    Unsurprising comment from you @Loyalbantam@Loyalbantam, His record is there for all to see :

    Taylor.jpg
    As a manager
    Gillingham

    Brighton & Hove Albion

    Hull City

    Wycombe Wanderers

    Not a bad record, but you know that is not the point I was making unless Peter Taylor has applied ?.
    This is his record over all 40.31%.

    I’d back Nolan. However at this stage, I think it’s Bowyers.

    I like the look of those three, for every positive thing a manager out of work has there is also a negative.

    The point you made is that appointing an experienced manager should be the preferred option.
    My point is Peter Taylor fits that criteria yet he was very poor for us, as was Lennie Lawrence, Peter Jackson and Bryan Robson.
    The only managers ever to succeed here are rookies (Cherry, Dolan, Kamara, Jewell) and PP.
    I rest my case

    You rest your case, since when was Phil Parkinson a rookie :( ?.

    I also posted this "I like the look of those three, for every positive thing a manager out of work has there is also a negative"

    Nolan continues to shorten and hanging on with Bowyer.

    Actually in last hour Nolan has drifted slightly and Bowyer back to odds on, as he was evens earlier this afternoon.

    Still think it will be Bowyer, announced beginning of the working week

    Never said he was. Hence I excluded him from the ones in brackets

    Put big money on it then mate.

    I wouldn't myself. Look at this stage it might be Bowyers but it will depend on the interviews.

    Certainly agree on this one, we are carrying too many lead weights on our shoulders and taken too many steps backwards.

    He didn't say he was (hence the brackets).

    Edit. Just seen Loyalbantams reply to you. As you were.

    Looks like it's Bowyer then.

    Fair enough.

    I get where you are coming from Dave. To be fair you have backed it up with evidence. However the last time Taylor got over 40% was in 2009, which was the last time he got a team promoted. Since the it has been a downward spiral.

    So l guess if we were to get a ‘successful’ manager, there is absolutely no guarantee that they will repeat that with us.

    How many managers, who are available, have two previous promotions?

    I anticipate that the chances of a manger getting a third promotion is fairly low?

    I suggest three, as having two previous successes indicate that they are established operators.
