    Yes I agree. For me I would go for Leam Richardson, did a good job at Wigan.

    Well hope you’re right but to wait 5 weeks for him is really underwhelming. The club just haven’t got a clue.

    Yes, a big regret for Neville.
    Got Motherwell into Europe also, a good achievement with both the Old Firm around. Stuart did it without Rangers.

    Am not saying he’s the one I’d of gone for after Hughes but out of the people available I’d rather have him over the likes of Holden etc. the clamour for Richardson also a puzzling one he’s only done well with a massive budget for one season at Wigan.

    He has an overall good win ratio but his tactics appear to be very negative

    I’d just like someone to try play 2 up top get smith off cook and win second balls high up. League 2 football don’t take much tactics for me

    It's madness to expect any new manager to make a difference when the club is being run how it is. Mainly the recruitment side but certainly the CEO needs much more scrutiny.

    I like Richardson because he coached a team to a championship and managed one. I have read up on him and he seems to get into players and has a good rapport

    Yes huge changes needed. Sparky pants needs to resign and Rupp needs to sell up. We need proper football men involved at the top.

    Same number of promotions as Wellens, he even did 90% of the work in the EFL Trophy Wellens won and people were excited to credit him with

    Maybe it’s because some managers just don’t fit clubs but he is hated at Mk

    Remember they had robinson & liam manning who are both possession based managers last few seasons so maybe his face just don’t fit

    Actually after having researching Alexander’s style of play it’s not as negative as I thought he actually played three up front at Motherwell. It clashed a bit with the way MK like to play,
