I wouldn't mind her in charge. She would seriously bust some balls which quite frankly is what's needed. She's worked on the radio a bit and has an oustanding understanding of tactics. She was doing a Spurs cup game last season and picked Mourinho's team selection to pieces early on stating where they were likely to get found out. Proved spot on. It would turn us into a media frenzy a bit but we would gain a lot of traction for being forward thinking etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone who can make bs3 there home, we should model Brentford and Norwich. Why look in Cowley? Does Paul Cook live in Oxford? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely the wrong time for that sort of experiment. Would be an enormous risk and the board would never take such a risk in these circumstances.

sh1t_ref_again Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 Looks like the odds have been cut quite a lot on Cook & Howe, also Appleton & Russel after GMC tweet earlier. I know does not mean a lot as can be just bets placed, but interesting Paul Cook 5/4 Eddie Howe 3/1 Michael Appleton 4/1 Russell Martin 8/1 Danny Cowley 10/1 Alex Neil 12/1 Frank Lampard 12/1 John Terry 12/1 Nigel Pearson 12/1 Paul Simpson 12/1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finley_Smith10 Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 If it’s Russell Martin I don’t think imma be that close to City anymore and will try distance myself, just get let down at every opportunity and every news that comes out is bad.

Sarumred Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 I hope the decision is made fairly quickly and not left until the summer which would mean Simpson in temporary charge for the rest of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reckon it will just be a short-term appointment until the end of the season, can’t see any sense it being Simpson, which almost certainly means it will be until the end of the season!

Totally agree and can be influenced by betting or because of journalist speculation, but still interesting who is coming up or down the betting.

dunsteral Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 I cant see too many candidates wanting to take the job on and keeping our large coaching team simpson, downing, mountain,gilmartin,cisse especially if he wants to bring his own staff with him. So it will either prove to be a stumbling block to getting a new HC or will cost loads of money to pay them all off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
