City1970 Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 2 hours ago, Between heaven and hell said: The way I see it our next appointment will give some indication as to just how serious Steve Lansdown is about taking is on to the next level. In my opinion the likes of Appleton, Tisdale and Warnock would definitely be the cheap options. Sherwood, Pearson and Clark would be excellent appointments but the recruitment of Moyes would send out a clear statement of intent. In our position where we are struggling to attract players we desperately need to appoint a manager such as Moyes so players can see just how serious the owner is to succeed in his quest to take us to the premiership. I think a clear statement of intent will be when quality players sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's probably as much to do with the manager than the club. A quality manager will bring quality players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelts Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 2 hours ago, Between heaven and hell said: No he wouldn't be mate, but he would only be a short term fix and not the head turner statement we desperately need. Big ish name in football. Ideal man to shake this club up. I would back him to keep us up with limited resources , then kick us on to the upper reaches of the championship.

I think this statement was made around the the Nigels got pushed out before the Hull play-off final. I'm sure someone with more time than me can find this interview Yep he praised us as well at that time saying we are a 'proper club in a great old school stadium with great fans who create a hostile and noisy atmosphere who make it difficult for away sides...' He likes us... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goatersfloater Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Seriously though, surely someone is lined up ready to go, I just can't believe we booted Cotts out with only 2 weeks of the window left without already having the wheels in motion with regards to his immediate replacement Please someone tell me that we are now not just starting this process off Common sense would dictate............ah hang on a sec.........

He likes us... Hes also stated publicly his desire to manage us as hes intrigued with us, a city of this size and its always interested him but hes never been asked. Probably 4-5 years ago i heard him say this. However, Pearson please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Warnock has been very complementary about city in the past, even when some douche slapped him during a pitch invasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shtanley Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 After Freddie Sears' ghost goal I seem to recall him being pretty harsh about us, the guy is a ****. He optimises everything I hate about english football, the moaning, the time wasting, the abuse of refs and the boring simplistic style of football.

robin_unreliant Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 So - judging by this conversation nobody thinks the Daily Mail have a clue then? No mention of Colin there - its Appleton or Cooper. If they are at all ITK shouldn't this be a tad worrying? The thought they could be right frankly terrifies me.
