But I would take anything coming out of the Mail with complete disdain - unlike the Bristol Post who seem to be on the ball more than any media outlet. I have no idea who the new manager will be but Alex Neil appears to be a good fit as would Gerrard have been. But they can't ignore Hughtons record and should tweak the structure to accommodate him imo - not sure if they'd do that though. Can't be too far from an announcement. 1 hour ago, Roger Red Hat said: Told by whom? 21 hours ago, Kid in the Riot said: First choice was the DJ-punching scouser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather they took another 2 months than give DH the job That's a terrible idea.. Dean will have us top of the league as caretaker whereupon the board will tell him he's got the job.

I understand there is a waiting game to deal with applications and interviews but to be honest, CH was avaliable from day one and if the club really wanted him they would have had the deal done by now. Pretty pissed off with it all (again) to be honest, wanted CH to lead us into 2020/21 but got a horrible feeling it aint going to happen. Well according to the press, Vladimir Icic is going to Watford, Aitor Karanka is going to Birmingham so the only decent job left for CH is ours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re not going to budge on that. You have another three weeks to decide or you’re out” I think the retaining of Holden & McAllister will be an imposition on the new Head Coach that someone like Rowe or Robins would accept but Hughton, Neil or any decent manager would not. Coppell had to accept good old Keefy Millen on top of SL making the vanity signing of David James. Coppell's success at Reading was in no small part due to Wally Downes on the training ground and Nicky Hammond on player contracts / recruitment.

Saunders87 Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 For me - Hughton is the man that we will announce. Breaking it down, Neil and Cook both come with compensation clauses, and both will expect a relatively high salaries alongside it, Neil an experienced manager in the championship with promotions on his CV from the division, and Cook is in demand so is in a great position to negotiate. Holden although thought highly of by some of the board, will be a risk that the club can not afford to make in this current time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep.... the fact that Ashton Gate seemingly don’t understand the value of a ‘team’ that gels and delivers probably behind their desire to shoehorn the new coach into the existing set up. Anyhows, massive risk that Holden and Jamie will soon be gone to rejoin Lee when he gets his new Premier League Manager appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks 01. I don't know any more than anyone else on here. However, this is a golden opportunity to show real ambition and intent in a managerial appointment.

Curr Avon Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 Now let me get this straight. Hughton is the fans' (and my) first choice, but the club's second choice. Cook is the second first choice and Neill is the bookies' choice. Holden is the housewives choice and Robbie Fowler is the choice of people with more money than sense and a vivid imagination. Do we have any other choice? Just asking for a friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
