    He sounds adamant. He doesn't want the job.

    Take the merchant Farage with you… He keeps threatening to emigrate so his fans can suck up to the grifter …. Surprisingly he never does because his gravy train would end !

    I hope he proves to be successful enough to make him rethink in that case Hudders?

    It's a poor article as it doesn't bother to explain WHY it's an impossible job.

    If the author dug deep, he'd spot the glaring holes within the club.

    I think he has still plenty to give as player and you are a long time retired

    I'm not sure we can gamble on a rookie.
    Cowley would be my choice.

    I think in future years Mac could become a good manager. He as a great playing CV and shown Character in adversity. I think at the moment we need experience. I said no to Paul Cook but if he could reunite with Leam Richardson I think that Partnership could be successful.

    There’s only one … Rupp won’t fund the risk.
    ( His choice)

    Otherwise a very well managed business Jon bar the footballing side .

    When Adams was sacked and Hughes came in, even in defeat to Mansfield, you could see the players had taken on fresh instructions and had more zip in their play.
    It happens.
    Same on Saturday against Swindon.
    Whoever the new manager is they'll hit a dodgy spell and the players will get bored.
    For me it's on the club to have the know how and the plan to notice when the team isn't performing or when there's a change in attitude and act accordingly instead of waiting till it's too late.

    Yep.

    And there's no excuse for not managing the football side properly.

    Each to their own but no one can deny he knows how to get a team promoted whilst playing decent footy.
    But I can also see he's potentially a divisive person akin to Derek Adams so hence the worry.

    He isn't leaving Chesterfield. They're heading for a huge points total.
    They could win the league with 110 points.

    If the crowds are so beneficial why haven’t we used these to our advantage? For me there a hinderance the players are not capable of upping their game every other week for other clubs cup final at VP.

    They were similar attendance numbers and bettered at times under Phil Parkinson and during Stuart two spells as our manager those periods being the best since the Premiership days ?.
