To be honest, think Lee Carsley would be a good pick up.
At the moment would be content with Lee, Frank or Rud, so weirdly excited to see the direction we move in and a new style of play.
its 100% not Lampard - the bookies would not be giving money away - theyve made their money on him, and are just trying to get a few who fancy a bargain
Good podcast where he talks about Doug and Mark. Interesting to hear an owners perspective. Thought Mark did the best job in the EFL but not too be too hard on Doug as decision wouldn’t have been taken lightly. Still thinks highly of him and thinks he’ll get it rightI read that last night and then this morning I saw that the Peterborough chairman is saying that MR would be a perfect fit for Luton.

Ruud van Nistelrooy to Coventry City twist after Man Utd exit
Ruud van Nistelrooy left Manchester United this week and is now among the favourites to replace Mark Robins
Its clearly a done deal
Good players don't make good managers, don't need the media circus, bring back Fadz etc

Are we living in strange times.
The top 3 candidates for the City hotseat are 2 ex-world class players and the current England interim head coach.
5 years ago it would've been 2 ex Bedworth players and the current Aldi security guard.

Yeh but they are too famous innit. Bring back Doyler and Bakes as joint head coach
Play off form from now will not get us in the play offs. Oh and there is the small matter the best forward player we have is out for 3 months.
Top 10 with good football would be a good achievement whoever comes in. This season needs to lay the stepping stones for next year.
Mark Robins, Brian Clough, Franz Beckenbauer, John Sillett... All lousy managers

Yes that Pep Guardilola was an awful player, and Carlo Ancelotti
Great players don’t ALWAYS make great managers but they sometimes do …..
Add Sir Alex to that list of former players becoming crap managers...
I think there’s very little chance of us appointing him. He’ll probably hold out for a PL job.
If we appoint van Nistelrooy, I’ll give you the money myself.
I can't see a PL club punting on him. Likes of Southampton would go for a more seasoned relegation fighter?
People talking like the season is over. The league’s wide open, for play offs especially.
IF we get a bounce and sort the team out we could easily out run together and storm up league.
plenty of time.

Whilst I agree it seems unlikely at the moment surely Doug has to go with an ambitious appointment.
We didn't expect him to spend as big as he did but he has so I wouldn't rule anything out.
It's because the media just get quotes from random comments and take them out of context and whack a misleading headline onI read that last night and then this morning I saw that the Peterborough chairman is saying that MR would be a perfect fit for Luton.

Anyone with a heart will be gutted to see Robins be sacked. You’re right in saying there is a big opportunity to change things up and potentially pick up a coach from one of the elite clubs in the country.
It could be beneficial for us in the long run.
Exactly this - top 2 probably Leeds and SU.
Then you've got absolute bun fight for top 4 - no one is running away, look at Sunderland last week, bang average to me.
However, we do need to start putting run together quick sharp. Fixtures after Burnley are quite kind for new manager also.
Think you’d find it very hard for anyone not to be upset at mark going and very much hope Doug was sincere when he talked about honouring what Mark did here.
But we aren’t going to get him back. Excited to see who they now pick and have a new tactical style to watch ( and try and understand as I’m a nerd like that).
Decision has been made, choosing to be positive as the other option would be moping around upset we scored a equaliser against the league leaders
Yeah remember how Jaap Stam led Reading to European glory? Still can’t move around the streets of Kampen without tripping over locals in Royals shirts.
I agree, we only need to achieve 3 more points every 10 games than the others, and that's assuming the current top 6 stays as it is.
