Have I seen right that Cotterill is the new favourite? Also seen CET reporting that Pressley remains it but sure I seen via skybet that Cotterill had moved to favourite?

I hope it's not him or Evans......

If Pressley came back...

...do you think Fisher and Joy would fit in the boot of a Focus saloon?

As much as I'd like Cotterill, Jackett and even more wishfully thinking, Di Canio, I can see Mark Venus becoming our next manager.

It will end up with MV being a director on the board and a team manager at the same time, God knows who they will bring in this time as a CEO? Just hope it's someone who knows about football, Karen Brady would be good (now awaiting the sexist comments)

Nearly a week after Mowbrays resignation and we have had just a shitty statement from Sisu wishing him well.

Have we started to look for managers yet as I've only seen speculation and nothing from CCFC about the recruitment process.

Did our form dip last year after Venus went upstairs to an office job.Maybe he was the real brains and motivation behind our good start last season.

I think it will be MV, happy to give him a shot the less we have going out on wages the better

I'm sure I read somewhere that Venus didn't want it?

Real apathy about a new manager.

Surely after 6 years out of the game Curbishley's knowledge of League One is going to be wafer thin.

Has he been out of football or just out of management? He might have been scouting or something.

Curbishley last managed 8 years ago !!. The game has moved on massively in terms of player power , the role of agents etc. Next to no experience in League 1.

Not for me.

I'd have him as manager....with Tony Banks and Mike Rutherford as his assistants. I'm sure their technical expertise on the training field would be, you could say, an "Invisible Touch" to give us an advantage in our next game (which happens to be scheduled for Tonight Tonight Tonight).

After all, our whole club is in a Land of Confusion. SISU are In Too Deep after spending far too long Throwing It All Away.

I would go for a young and as yet relatively inexperienced manager. Someone who is known as being passionate about football and has been prepared to speak up when necessary or has been prepared to try different approaches. Someone in the same set as Jimmy hill; someone who could shake up the club and reinvigorate the fans. Personally I would go for Gary Neville...but I'm sure he wouldn't come here. Someone like that.

We tried that with Pressley and look what happened there. I'd have Robins back though.

He'd be my pick out of the more realistic options I've seen.

If we had got rid of these owners I'd go with that, think despite his stint at Valencia he would build a good club and team, stand no shit either, trouble is he'd soon fall out with sisu and be off.

How would it work with Neville managing over here while owning a club? What happens if we got them in the fa cup.

But surely that is what hurt Tony Mowbray isn't it?

He said himself he knew nothing of League One and if Curbishley has been out if the game for 6 years then surely he will know nothing of current League One football or players there either.

As Nick says though, maybe he has been scouting and keeping his hand in or something.

Not knowing League One proved problematic for Mowbray.

Why are people touting Richard Money? Because he used to work here? Very average manager.

Curbishley would need time after being out the game so long, we haven't got time were bottom. And to whoever mentioned Adkins, you see the job he done at Sheff Utd? Woeful.

Cotterill, Evans or Jackett for me. Good League One managers with very recent success.

Curbishley all day long. Charlton went to shit after he left. Performed miracles. You don't lose ability like that.

Jackett did a good job at millwall and wolves would be happy if we got him until the end of season to see how we go
