With Lee Carsley winding down his England commitments, and both him and King living around the Kenilworth area, surely 7/1 is a safe bet at the bookies?

Carsley has already committed himself to the England under 21 job.

Has that officially been decided? He said in that weird press conference last international break that he hoped to go back to the U21s I have a feeling he didn't know what he could or couldn't say because Tuchel hadn't been announced.

If Robins was available and on the list we’d be screaming for him.
There are other clubs out there drooling at the prospect

He’s gone now. What is the actual point of saying this. Let’s move on. Yes he was possibly the greatest manager we’ve ever had. But comments like this just don’t help at the minute.

Not sure why even King would want to employ a manager with no club experience

Has Nicky Butt ever had a coaching job? Seem to remember he nearly joined us as a player at one point.

Or 5/2 depending where you look. Rhys Carr has also come in to 25/1

If we were going to appoint a L1 manager, I'd prefer for it to be Nigel Clough, not Bloomfield... Never going to happen in a million years though.

If the new manager comes from that list, it’s Bloomfield for me. Not excited at all at the prospect of FL but at least Alex Neil has dropped off the radar.

Hoping Robins gets back into management as soon as he wants to and proves his point to DK. Not actually sure he’ll get that many offers at a good level. Current trend is young and / or foreign tacticians. And while Robins was widely admired for what he did for us, you get the feeling that other clubs aren’t convinced he could do similar for them.

TBH, I'm happy to take anyone, apart from:

Keane
Lowe
Schumacher
Butt

Hopefully it is someone not on the betting list. I'd love us to go for a young foreign manager. Sure we won't though. I'd even take Lampard over the four names above.

Totally agree. When we were doing great, Robins was always ignored when new jobs arose. Carrick and Edwards seem to be the darlings of British managers. Robins is too old (at 54) and not good looking enough it seems.

Sunderland approached him when we were in L1 and wasn't he heavily linked with Norwich at one point?

I heard he was seriously considering talking to Stoke when we were in the Championship - I can’t remember which season it was though.

Skubala used to manage the Coventry youth team in the late 2000's, apparently. He's doing quite well at Lincoln with an attacking style.

Stoke sacked Michael O'Neill about that time so possibly... Lives in Derbyshire as well so would have been closer to home

He will be the offered the Norwich manager role at some point but will not want to relocate from Belper
Stoke would be perfect for him or Derby
