    Do you not realise Rahic is company staff, secretary, kit man, tea boy, physio, director, & ceo

    Holloway sacked by QPR. Suppose we could do worse than him

    I'd absolutely take Holloway.

    not sure he'll be up for diving straight back into another management role, but if he is and would relocate up here I'd have him.

    You’ve put the wrong Coleman on the list. Chris Coleman - no thanks. John Coleman - very possible, based on the fact he has promoted several young lads into their 1st team and has made more money from them than we have over a similar period.

    I suspect the clock has been ticking a little longer than that. The club have almost certainly known Simon's decision for longer. I would normally expect an announcement early next week. With Edin I'm not holding my breath.

    Sounds like they want a coach, a different ball game to manager

    So VERY, very true, MB. (Now confirmed ....... a COACH)
    The chairmen will be looking at candidates whom they consider would buy into their concepts, rather than listen to (Confirmed by Graysons departure ;) ) some 'Manager' Hell bent on selling HIS concept in team leadership, and building bricks. :)

    Bellamy? Why do you think he’d do a job? What has he got on his CV to make him a candidate? Not for me

    Didn't Warburton leave Brentford because he was asked to work under a similar model as us?.

    They did and offered him a 2 year contract, now back to square 1 with 3 months down the drain.

    A manager with an amazing CV could still fail, it's all about how the man fits with the club and the players

    He is certainly reluctant to deligate so you could be correct.

    And how much he wants to be here, which in Grayson's case was not very much at all.

    I can't imagine us appointing somebody who is already in a similar job at another club, such as Paul Hurst, with the possibility of having to pay some kind of compensation for his services. Which leaves us either with those managers currently without a job for whatever reason, somebody who is starting his managerial career or an internal appointment.

    I'd welcome either Graham Alexander or preferably Grant McCann from the first group.
