Where do you start on what worries you about Doug King? The most worrying for me are his complete lack of understanding or knowledge of football, and his actions making it seem like he is treating the club as his play thing, and his Doug knows best attitude, I would say are high on my list.

Likely to be when Doug feels he's had enough attention, interviews and the spotlight is dimming on his bouffant hir.

Fucking hell, is anyone else utterly bored shitless waiting to find out who our next head coach/manager/head of franchise or whatever Doug wants to name it, is appointed.

Great football writer who was never surpassed by any of his successor's. I still have a copy of his last pink report, from the Cup Final. I used to love the Preview of the season they used to produce in the eighties full of his articles.

Yep and look how well that turned out!

I’ve got no problem with Eustace He took Kidderminster to the non league play offs twice, as well as the first round of the FA Cup, vastly improved Birmingham and got sacked when they were in the top six, and has made Blackburn a far better team who currently just sit outside the play offs. I...

Must have been hard to interview anyone whilst doing that!

Lets hope he spoke to Frank Lampard Jnr and not Senior

A liddle coddage? Wearing his Covendry Ciddy pyjamas

Neither did Lampard....well unless the Owner/Chairman knows your family.

I hope not!

Its so meh though (if correct) especially if its the case that its a vanity project by Doug based on the fact he is a name and Doug knows people who know him.

I'm not saying it isn't different (although Carsley has coached within club structures, as well as England) what's more important is getting the right fit for our club.

Isnt there a risk with every manager? Look at Sunderland, they employed Regis Le Bris, an unknown who had just suffered a relegation in France. so far he hasn't done too bad. We have to find the right fit for our club.

To be fair to Sexton he had the rug rapidly pulled from under his feet by Jimmy Hill as Chairman due to financial issues, when Garry Thomspon was sold against his wishes, and we allowed virtually a whole first team to run their contracts down and leave.

Id have Carsley over Lampard every day of the week. I don't understand the apathy towards him, but then it would be boring if we all agreed. He's coached an exciting Under 21 Team, won a tournament, is spoken about as innovative and an excllent coach by his players (whom have far more...

IS there a hype for Carsley? I know I would certainly prefer a Coach who has won the European Under 21 Tournament over a journeyman manager who hasn't secured a job for a while and has failed in his last few positions.

He didnt quite get his medallion in the shot

Just saw this, the first post on this thread. Quite a lots happened since then!
