I assumed that we can only target 3 managers and no more than that.
So went for Rowett and Rodgers (my preferred choices).
O'Neill as the back up option.

Definitely seems to be a Rowett and Rodgers run-off like the last one.
Koeman seems to have lost a bit of support

Rafa seems to have gobbled up all of Ronnie Koeman's support (although I dunno if Rafa is remotely realistic)

My preference :
Rafa
Brenda
Ranieri
Who I think it'll be :
Bruce
Martin O'Neil
Mclaren
Although I think if we appoint someone temporary then Rafa is nailed on for the summer.

Rafa has to be my #1 choice because he's one of the best managers in the entire league, which is nothing to be sniffed at, and would be a perfect fit for this club I think. If there's ANY sort of indication from his people that it's possible we should move heaven & earth to bring him here.
Rodgers and Giggs are my other choices.

Pretty much a repeat of the first poll I think.
Rowett and Rodgers romping it, but with Rafa stealing Koeman's 3rd place votes - and a surprising (at least to me!) number of votes for MON and Potter.

Come on Grapey, where's Bielsa when we need him?
Albeit PC would probably view him as per Beelzebub.
(You need Mo'N on there as a 6month jobbie too. I couldn't bring myself to vote for him as a long termer) |

I kinda just went with what I think the board would do. Sure Rafa and Mancini would be interesting appointments, but not realistic
I chose MON, Rowett and Rodgers, and out of those 3, I think MON is nailed on

Break the bank for dyche he was interested in Everton, I think we would be a great option for him and for us a manager who runs a tight ship, the ability to work on a budget and if relegation did happen he knows how to get out if the championship

He's established a great relationship with the supporters, seems SO SO unlikely he would chuck that all away to manage a side who will be potentially relegated, and be vilified in the process.. (As an aside I just realised our form is slightly better than Burnley, looking at the BBC table, edged them by 1 point) |

I keep asking the question and no one who wants him can give me an answer as to why. Personally I think he's the last thing we need right now but I'm open to being convinced. |

In 4 years at Aston Villa, when transfer fees were lower than today, MON spent £12O million and recouped £39 million, a net loss of £81 million.
He achieved 3 6th place finishes.

Also tying in average players on long term lucrative contracts to entice them to the club, lot of villa fans will see MoN as the man who started the rot at their club with nothing left in the pot to commence recovery when he departed. |

Do please carry on... Well I know Peter Coates looks carefully at a managers previous record before making an appointment, so he will clearly have these figures to hand. He will have to try and work out how that £12O million would look with inflation built in and I guess come to some understanding of future spending with MON, before appointing him. |

Yep. Also reportedly barely showed up to work. I'm stupefied if the Stoke board want O'Neill. |

So just like Mark Hughes but a bit more successful and little less expensive. |

True, but I think if O'neill comes in it would be as a temporary appointment, a firefighting job to keep us up and grind out the 17-18 points we need. |

The manager doesn't offer players contracts. O’Neill had Lerner over a barrel at the time, he made his demands and the owners put it all together. |

Mikel Arteta would be my choice. If he can do for shaq what he has done for sterling then it would light up the stadium. Shaq no doubt has unbelievable ability, but he needs managing to get the best out of him.

So multi millionaire businessman gives in to his managers demands on a whim ruining the club ? Come off it. The chief exec and chairman are much more to blame than the manager. The manager makes requests the chairman writes the cheques. Whilst O Neil isn't completely blameless in the whole situation it stops at lerners door. |

I really liked him as a player and the team is pretty much set up for someone who has an attacking nature. He works under pep who is arguably the best manager in the world at the moment so to think he has nothing to offer is foolish. He is very intelligent and i believe he will be a great manager one day. |
