Jody Morris keen to work with Frank again tho!!
Nixons saying Doug’s still reviewing names, Lampard in the frame a couple of others keen. Doesn’t seem to think it’ll take long once Doug has picked someone
Sillett - Nah let's get a big name England international, Terry Butcher.High profile name, not a highly experienced coaching profile though. That's the worry.
To be fair we’ve tried all types …..Sillett - Nah let's get a big name England international, Terry Butcher.
Eric Black - Nah let's get a big name England International, Peter Reid.
Mark Robbins - Nah let's get a big name England International...
I was looking at the pattern of fans favourite managers being replaced by High profile English Internationals. Assuming Lampard gets the gig.To be fair we’ve tried all types …..
up and coming ….. Aidy Bothroyd, Pressley
Proven …. Tony Mowbray
Desperate ,.. Russell Slade
Wait til you release the main manager markets are ran by sky bet. "Breaking news here on sky sports news, we understand Russell Slade is on the list for..."I've never understood how there can be betting markets on decisions made by a person/people. You'd have to be a mug to put money on without inside information.
Apart from what we all know. Just seems to confirm that it doesn’t look like we’ve already got someone in mind like a few thought.So Nixon doesn’t know anything then.
Doesn't want to be a number 2?Apart from what we all know. Just seems to confirm that it doesn’t look like we’ve already got someone one in mind like a few thought.
Can’t see anyone else but Lampard at this point. Seems his agent is doing all they can, got sky sports on it, some news outlets and Jody Morris on Talk sport all going on about how he could do a job for us.
Least he wants the job if he gets it
He said he would consider it with Lampard at Coventry but would have to be right dealDoesn't want to be a number 2?
I don’t think it’s a foregone conclusion because we may consider European managers we’ve never heard of.Apart from what we all know. Just seems to confirm that it doesn’t look like we’ve already got someone one in mind like a few thought.

Don’t mind Lampard.I don’t think it’s a foregone conclusion because we may consider European managers we’ve never heard of.
On Lampard, he won’t be as bad people make out. We’re a Championship club.
It’s funny how people look at his struggles at Chelsea and Everton and conclude he wouldn’t do anything here.I don’t think it’s a foregone conclusion because we may consider European managers we’ve never heard of.

Should we consider Gary Rowett he got 6th with Derby the season before Lampard
Fail forever? He's already won the spfl with rangers you idiotYay. The future is bright!!
All joy to the world.
I suppose the best way of looking at it is, he can't be a failure forever. At some point it has to click, even if it is Toxteh U11's, reserves for girls
Don’t mind Lampard.
Think there’s a pile on here. Did well at Chelsea first year and Derby. Don’t think Chelsea second year was that bad. First in his champions league group and not terrible in the league.
Everton was bad but to be fair Rafa Bentiez struggled there, same as Carlos and others. Won’t be the first or last manager to struggle at Everton.
Big strength is developing players which is what he did well at Derby and Chelsea. Not my first pick but think it’s been blown out of proportion.
It’s funny how people look at his struggles at Chelsea and Everton and conclude he wouldn’t do anything here.
If a player couldn’t make it in the prem we wouldn’t write them off as being useless for us?
Obviously management and playing are very different, but I think it’s an interesting parallel.
it wont be Frank - the betting drifting too much
I doubt he has made his mind up yet = as no other strong runner in the betting
I meant Lampard.He said he would consider it with Lampard at Coventry but would have to be right deal
That would be a dreamRvN down to 10-1 suddenly
That's a good shoutBrian Barry-Murphy is one who I imagine has applied and in terms of pedigree it probably doesn't get much better: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5776122/2024/09/20/manchester-city-brian-barry-murphy-interview/
Didn’t he relegate Rochdale? I mean obviously that’s his only job - so has clearly learned whilst at Man City but he’d be more of a risk than BloomfieldBrian Barry-Murphy is one who I imagine has applied and in terms of pedigree it probably doesn't get much better: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5776122/2024/09/20/manchester-city-brian-barry-murphy-interview/
Interesting shout tbh.Brian Barry-Murphy is one who I imagine has applied and in terms of pedigree it probably doesn't get much better: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5776122/2024/09/20/manchester-city-brian-barry-murphy-interview/
Binks is excellent with his feet.As many know, MLS / America is my area of expertise. There is one manager that any overseas club would be crazy not to consider right now.
Wilfried Nancy (Columbus) - French coach who is by far and away the best tactical manager currently in North America. Absolutely brilliant. The two teams he has managed experienced immediate improvement. He plays a high-possession beautiful brand of football. Honestly, I think he is destined for a Ligue 1 job sooner rather than later.
The only downside for his fit with Coventry would be that it would likely require a bit remaking of the backline. He absolutely demands that his CDs be able to pass and be excellent with their feet to the point that he often plays only one true CD with the LCD and RCD being converted fullbacks.
Wilfred Nancy has done an amazing job at the crew. Would be a great shout but like you say can’t see him coming as think he’ll go ligue 1 soonAs many know, MLS / America is my area of expertise. There is one manager that any overseas club would be crazy not to consider right now.

Do you think he would apply though?As many know, MLS / America is my area of expertise. There is one manager that any overseas club would be crazy not to consider right now.

Binks is excellent with his feet.
Bobby Thomas isn’t bad either (yes, I know people will disagree with me on this).
