rocksred Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Also heard this. I think Brazil was on the wind up, he said 'Neil Warnock is outside Ashton Gate, more on that next'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Club and Country Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Obviously all jokes etc, but reading between the lines you could certainly assume city and warnock have the very least been in touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midlands Robin Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 He also clearly said he's heard nothing from the club. That doesn't mean he hasn't applied for the job but I thought it was quite clear that he wasn't expecting to be our new boss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alessandro Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 So he basically said, great atmosphere and fans, I haven't had any contact from the club, but I will be busy working for the next few weeks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So reading between the lines I think we can definitely assume that Colin will be eating mainly horseradish this week, is going to watch Star Wars for the 2nd time, is popping to Nemptnet Thrubwell to visit is relative, will wear his favourite blue trackie and will be sitting down with his old mucker, Stevie L for a cuppa to discuss the good ol' days.

42nite Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 If he wasn't coming here, I think he would have stated so. Why wouldn't he? Smokescreens being used maybe? I hope so, get him in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I've said I can't see him being a choice of Mark Ashton But, as you say Brazil keeps pulling his leg and NW is being very quiet and avoiding all digs !! hmmmmmm Brazil also suggested to NW earlier that it would 'suit him till the end of the season' Perhaps I'm reading too much into the exchanges !! # relegationcrisisfever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handsofclay Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 I didn't hear the piece but it possibly speaks volumes, judging from reports on here, that he didn't rule himself out and stated he will be doing something for the next few weeks. He could easily, politician wise, get himself out of the not been approached statement by saying that he has not been approached in terms of the full time managerial vacancy. City have someone else in mind for that in the summer if we stay up. But he has been approached about helping City on a temporary basis, until the end of the season.

Palace were just outside the relegation zone when he left so he hardly left them 10 points adrift. That's two jobs in 20 odd years though, if you go through every club he's been at, bar the two the mentioned he's done a good job. Just seems a no brainer to me.

Midlands Robin Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 I don't know if, given the long long wait we seem to be having here that we are reading too much into these things but, if you compare what Stuart Pearce said a few days ago on Talk Sport with Warnock today. Pearce said he'd had no communication with the club. That tends to suggest he's not applied and the club haven't contacted him. Warnock however, stated that he'd heard nothing from the club. Now that doesn't rule out Warnock having applied for the position but not having heard anything back yet. Reading too much into it? Maybe but for crying out loud City, Either poop or get off the toilet !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtySanchez Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 I listened to the last half hour on Talksport and I think he would take the job as he was shying away from all City related jobs from Brazil. Didn't want to burn any bridges. If not full term, there is probably no-one better at this point. Great knowledge of the Championship, good connections - even if he comes in alongside Pemberton, I can only see a positive from appointing him at this point. Come on Steve Lansdown, call him!!!!!

BobBobSuperBob Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 He also mentioned earlier he thought we were 'waiting to see if we got a couple of results' May have just been his opinion as a pundit but IF he has any indication of this suggests either 1) 'Somebody' (Not NW) has said - 'pick up a bit / improve your position and I'll consider / take it' 2) 'Someone' (NW) has been spoken to about the possibility of him coming in short term if Pembo looks like he's struggling I have no more knowledge than anyone else but I can start to smell a 2) Starting to wonder whether they will bring in NW to help JP as a 'consultant' type if results remain poor On the other hand perhaps I shouldn't be over analysing a show on Talksport !!!!

Heard him talk about us before, he loves the Championship and has admitted his temp stint at QPR made him want to go again If he was offered it till end of season I am absolutely certain he'd jump at the chance Also think he'd come if it was to help JP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie_Turner Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 I get the impression some of the bigger names approached dont want a relegation on their CV and therefore want to see how things pan out - maybe a temporary manager till the end of the season till they decide if to throw their hat into the ring, if of course we are still in the Championship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashtonwurzel Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 From what I heard it sounds like he has applied and is waiting to hear back. If he hadn't applied or didn't want the job he would have said so (ala Pearce). If I was betting man I would say he could be our man until the end of the season with a nice big bonus to keep us up and then re-access in the Summer. Seems like a good option to me. I would be very confident he could keep us up even with the squad we have now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
