Admin Ian M Posted November 6, 2023 Admin Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 10 minutes ago, supercidered said: Despite the noises coming from Oxford, I've got a really bad feeling this bloke is going to get the job. From NP to someone who got sacked from MK Dons and manages a team in League one. How depressing. The boys will be doing cartwheels of joy up at the HPC when they get told. My fear is the opposite. Manning has got both his last two teams to play exciting, attacking football. It only fell apart at MK when the owners sold his best two players and he couldn’t replace them (sound familiar much?). I fear that we will appoint one of the mediocre currently out of work managers/coaches instead (which is what an appointment this afternoon would suggest). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marina's Rolls Royce Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 Just now, bcfc01 said: I meant I am not on Twitter. Me neither. But the thing is you reposted that Tinnion said something on Twitter that may or may not be fact. In any event- BT may believe that Manning ( if it is he) is an exciting prospect and I'd tend to agree from the research I've done from a layman's point of view. NP ( and others) has built the foundations for a bright coach to work from so it could indeed be exciting. And what's the point of replacing NP with another in the NP mould?

So, does Smart Turnip have a track record of playing exciting, hard pressing football? Do they have a German connection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProfitInMyPocket Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 11 minutes ago, bcfc01 said: Nope. Not on Twitter, just saw it posted on here somewhere. You said I didn't read twitter or interviews regarding that quote about an inspiring or exciting appointment, yet you didn't either? Absolute waffle. You've just taken what one person has said on here who's probably heard it from our resident manager Ian on one of the podcasts. How about you read twitter or the interviews if you're so certain it was said and prove it. Not one person from the hierarchy has said that in the slightest. So don't expect an inspiring or exciting appointment either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he lost his 2 best players and then couldn't get a tune out of the rest of the squad in League 2. So what happens if he loses 2 of his best players in the summer at City then? Not having a dig at anyone on OTIB, though I seem to ruffled a few feathers. I just don't get how Manning should be anywhere near the best option for the City job. Or is it that he's viewed as the best of a bad bunch? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neuilly Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 (edited) Just listening to TalkSport. They said definitely not Frank Lampard and LM is #1. Mentioned he has a release clause and ‘looks like it will happen’. With Sky saying something similar (Tob Dorsett) it looks like it could well be Manning.

Bobbie Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 1 hour ago, Harry said: Yep. I’ve watched a number of championship teams this season who are streets ahead of us in terms of their style, their quality, their pace, their technicality. We are way behind a number of teams. We are being competitive because we have players with a fair bit of grit, determination, energy. But the way some other teams play - we are way off that still. Is that not a reason to sack Nige?

GrahamC Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 Wish him all the best. As we apparently have a “top ten” budget according to our chairman & the last bloke they sacked for “underperforming” got us to within 4 points of the playoffs, it should be a piece of piss for him to reach the playoffs from here. 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
