Guest WaggiesQuiff Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Providing an acceptable result against WBA, I wouldn't mind Wade Elliot and John Pemberton staying on as joint head coaches, give them until the end of the season at least, it may work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor10 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 The only way I would accept this is if the only other alternative was Appleton. Credit where it's due to Pembo & Wade. Today was absolutely class & we deserved all 3, but let's not got carried away. It was one game. We NEED an experienced & proven manager. This option is simply a no go for me.

MC RISK77 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Hang on one swallow doesn't make a sumner, they have zero experience of managing at this level...Pearson with Pembo and Elliott kept as back room staff for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numero Uno Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 People are forgetting we still need to get four players in to have a good chance of survival. If Cotterill couldn't get them in why would Pemberton and Elliott be any different? You either need a short term fix like Warnock (if no-one suitable is interested how about a short term deal with a large wedge payable in June if he keeps us up?) or a higher profile Manager who can get the required players in during what will be a hectic ten days or so at the end of the window.

Dynamite Red Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 No. Good result but need to recruit a top manager to sign some players. Well done all the same, great result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done all the same, great result. This. Plus another downside is that it would only be a matter of time before the club would end up sacking them too. They could be with us much longer in their current roles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shtanley Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I have no qualms with them both continuing Untill it starts to not go swimmingly. Mark Ashton and the board will try to sign players regardless. I like this system we just used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chappers Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 No problem at all with this, lots of positives from today, I'm quite sure they can bring a few players in, then either look again if the initial impetus stalls, or in the summer. Looking at today, we need about 4/5 players, including a few older heads. We don't need a panic big name signing, just the players to keep us up. Then look again at things in the summer.

Corsham Alf Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Delighted for Wade & Pembo with their efforts today but let's not delude ourselves- unproven managers seldom do well at this level. We have to move for a proven manager (Pearson or Clarke). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 What I think it might show is that their knowledge of the squad might be key to any new man coming in, who will probably only have gone to bring in two / three players. Those players need to be in the positions we need them most. You'd probably say that if we continue to play 433 (or a variant of it), we only need one central striker. Kodjia will be first choice and we have cover there, albeit not top quality. We probably need midfield cover, and now all of a sudden we might need a wide right forward to cover Wes? Pembo and Wade may be vital to ensuring we go after the right players in the right positions to complement the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidered abroad Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 As others have said, no. Wade is learning his trade as our Under 21 chief and Pembo is clearly a good coach. But managing or Head Coach, needs much more and neither have the CV to do this at present. Pearson or Moyes for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityexile Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Just back, still buzzing. If I get that high twice a season I am happy! Really brave call by the two of them today. However, the only way thiscouod be even considered is if we had a really great manager lined up, but the could not join us to the summer. Even then, obvious risks with our current league position.

He wasn't that good at Liverpool but whilst he did ok at Blackburn that was about 5 or 6 years ago. He's played most games for derby this season though but doubt they'd sell. Not sure I see the fascination if I'm honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Examples being Owen Coyle (took Burnley up to the Premier League in his first season as a manager in England), Tony Mowbray won the Championship title in his first managerial role in England with WBA, Paul Lambert took Norwich to the League One title then won promotion from the Championship to the Premier League the next season - his first season as a Championship boss, Alex Neil took Norwich up to the Premier League in his first season as a Championship manager, Mark Warburton took Brentford out of League One and then took them to the Championship play offs in his first season as a Championship manager....and there are many more examples.
