    What are her achievements as a coach. I don't watch too much of women's football. Who has she managed besides England?

    Personally a female coach may well be a famous first. Why not.

    The thought of a female coach had never crossed my mind, however with all the negativity at the moment I’d be all for it! Why the hell not. Everybody would support her fully that’s for sure.

    I very much doubt it if we started losing games I'm sure she would get stick just as a fella would.

    Quite apt really because I think she would be better as a number two.

    Have to say out of all the people being banded around and although no one seems to have any idea (kudos there Edin by the way - keeps it interesting no leaks or anything!) I' say Hope Powell excites me more than any of the other choices I've heard - esp more than the lad from Peterborough who seems to be the favourite at the moment!

    Someone who's never managed a mens competitive game.. Come on. Let's be real here. The mens game and the women's game are poles apart; it's almost a different sport. From the skill level to the transfer market it simply doesn't compare. The last thing we need is someone who's LITERALLY unproven. Christ, we're going to be up against it already next season, the last thing we need is another catalyst in the mix. For all our sakes, let's hope Hope Powell isn't going to become our new manager.

    Well it could be a good incentive to win, adds a whole new meaning to 'play with a smile on your face'

    Doesn't surprise me mate she's a professional, they do well they get the accolades, and vise versa.

    You know this rumour is so daft it could be a possiblity the way our two court publicity, they'd be in the papers for weeks.
