I'v never been one to call for Black to become our new manager every time we need a new one.
But this time round after seeing who is available currently, I don't think it would be a bad shout.
I know he applied for the Blackburn job, so maybe he would be interested in ours.
Who knows.
Never been in the bring back Black camp and at the time Eric Black was sacked i wasn't that bothered, for me he was a win one lose one manager. When Peter Reid was appointed lets be honest that appointment was fairly well recieved Reid had a good record at Sunderland and a provern record of re-building clubs and getting them promotion, how wrong was that. We need stability and someone to build a bit of a dynasty, unfortunately Mark Robins would never have been that man and was always using us as a stepping stone. None of the so called list of probables jump out at me and i see the likes of Owen Coyle being wooed away eventially.
Eric Black's record at Brum and Sunderland under Brucie was good as was his time at Blackburn with Steve Keene, could a Keene/Black partnership be our dream team.
Thats what this club needs and both know their way round the club so why not.
Its a lottery as always but having voted for MR last time i might be on a roll.
Out of all the candidates mentioned none fill me with confidence.
Since Black has been away he has gathered far more experiance and if he has applied for the job then its a no brainer but as i said its still a lottery.
He was replaced by someone who became known as monkey, but don't let anyone fool you at the time Peter Reid was seen by many as a decent appointment with a recent provern record, proved to be no good
