I'd be up for giving John Terry a chance if Hughton isn't up for it.

TP will want total control of every aspect of football at the club. And whats so wrong with that? He’s Tony Pulis.

There are some truly, truly terrifying names on that list. It's enough to give you sleepless nights isn't it? Hughton's the stand-out, but Huddersfield will get him you'd think. Monk's done a decent job at Swansea and Birmingham. Adkins has a good record but there's something a bit creepy about him. TP would keep us up no doubt but would split the fanbase straight away.

If we can’t get Hughton, Nigel Adkins and Garry Monk did decent jobs in difficult circumstances last year. Sol Campbell and John Terry as wildcard choices maybe? Would be a massive baptism of fire for both though (Macc Town a very different thing to what Campbell would be walking into here).
So depressing it has come to that type of consideration though and as others have said, the problems go way way deeper than the manager.

What's Chris Coleman up to these days? He'd be close to the top of the list I reckon.

It's too soon for the Cowleys, possibly look at them if we went down.

Didn’t know this thread was running my iPhone 5s and jam jar glasses let me down 😂
Pulis is the nuclear option and I believe there will have already been contact 😳

Out of the list I can only ask myself who would I trust to stop the rot? Who would go back to basics and give us a platform to rebuild? And that’s Pulis. It wouldn’t be pretty. If things were different it would be my choice. But based on where we are now it is who I would trust to sort out the mess.

We need an experienced man to pull us out of the shit and whip these primadonnas into shape - it's TP all day long for me.
This is a relegation battle let us stop pretending that this season will be anything else.

We desperately need a Director of Football because we'll hire another manager and they'll state the players are rubbish, we'll back the new person and the same thing will happen. We need a Director of Football to stop these people making short term fixes and asking the manager difficult questions and deliver a strategic view on what's going on to stop this cycle. You want to spend 4m on a right back when you already have one but no left back?
If this happens we can stop this cycle.

If this turns into a relegation scrap, and Jones is shown the door, I suspect that Coates will turn to Pulis. And if we are in a relegation scrap, he may be the most appropriate man for the job.

I like Nathan Jones but I really would like to see Tony Pulis return he is the one that can rebuild the club now. Please my Coates bring him back

You either go for Hughton or try and suck off Moyes enough to come here, or you go for another Jones style appointment but it's not the right time at all for that. In the current situation, we would have to look at Hughton. But for the sake of this football club, we should never go near Pulis ever again.

One of the very reasons we got rid was reduction in renewals and overall attendance, you would think Pete would be well aware this would happen again.
In a time requring major unity with the fans currently, he would ensure it would be shattered. Literal fighting in the stands kind of shattered. Unfortunately it doesn't look like that unity is going to exist for Jones either if we get destroyed on Saturday. Worrying times.

Nathan has made wholesale changes to the team, discarding players some of whom are arguably better than current starters The resulting performances this season are at best no better than last season; what he is trying to do isn’t working and personally I think he’s out of his depth The problem is that the person/ people responsible for this trail of failure are still there so they are likely to make another mistake Peter Coates loves the club but he’s a figure head; we need a CEO who is competent

The bloke managing PNE last night is the sort we would need if things continue to spiral. No frills, gets the job done on minimal resources.

If you'd have asked me 12 months ago about TP coming back I'd have laughed and told you to go fuck yourselves but it's getting close to the point where he may possibly be the only person available who'd get us out of this mess.
