No money

No chance of turning things round with kids

Seriously what idiot would take it and would we really want them?

This is not a post in support of Thorn more a serious question who would take it?

it's not a question of who would want,
it's a question of whether any sane person would trust these muppets,
economic with the truth to the nth degree,
their own future ? i feel has been totally destroyed,
e.g. 'oh hello i'm ** i used to be a part of sisu,
yes, well don't ring us we'll ring you !
financial disaster looms for all of the protagonists who have been involved,
& by the way, look at yourselves in the mirror,
i heard some kids shout the other day,
'liar, liar, bums on fire'
sisu - bye !!!!

Very simple. No. As AT is finding out, on a hiding to nothing

I'll do it, but only because it'd offer more job security than working for the bleedin Council does in these cut-throat, Thatcherite times. I'll take Torchomatic as my A.M. and cameraman.

If AT had to go I would like him to go back as coach and replace him with Lawrie Sanchez. The last time we had one of the crazy gang we had our best finish in any division I can remember. Very experienced manager as well and would be cheap.

8000 thousand a week and no one would want it?

There's always applicants for managers and despite our current plight the Coventry job would be attractive to many. Do you think a Hoffman or anybody else led consortiumn would stick with Andy Thorn because I don't. Things would be changed lock.stock and barrel in my opinion and geared up for an automatic return if relegated

Gary Hoffman told me personally that if he gets control then AT will be moved from the manager's job, and a new man brought in. He also told me he speaks to AT most days and speaks to RR every day.

IMO if AT goes I would want Billy Davis fantastic record at this level, although I cannot see it without some cash to spend

I heard weeks ago soneone was earmaked for the managers job should the Hoffman bid succeed and was also told it would be a surprise. It's just a pity Hoffman couldn't talk to SISU everyday.

I think Dave Jones is the man i would want, plays the style of football we like, and can work within a tight budget as well as a lavish budget..

Another name that cropped up was Liam Daish,

Hes done a great job in Non league alot like Dean Saunders and Nigel Clough before him. If we are working under a very tight budget surely he would be worth a look???

Aren't all Liam Daishs decisions made by an anonymous set of investors with little grasp of football an no connection to the club?

Hell fit right in!

Dave Jones ? not for me another nearly man and we have had loads of them. New broom entirely for me as was Jimmy Hill 50 years ago. Listening to talk sport i am always impressed with big Dion and his opinions but of course that doesn't make him a manager but someone modern, new and fresh for me, the club needs a new beginning.

No, the "My Football Club" scheme didn't ever deliver the things it promised. The original idea was the investors would vote on the team, who to buy, etc. None of that actually happened, as Daish woulda walked.

Agree about Jones-and he's always had a decent budget compared to ours. And still failed-he was expected to get Cardiff up.

As for Dion...I wonder how he'd cope when one of the players refuses to play because they've slapped in a transfer request, hmmm? If he darkens our door as manager, I will not be going again until he's gone. Which would probably be about 6 months.
