For crying out loud why do we have to persist in CRAP prehistoric British manager’s? MON like the past few have no tactical idea!
Please Celtic, you know it makes sense.

Does their nationality make them good?

Couldn't care less where any of our managers come from, its a strange obsession.

Fair enough then Let’s give Martin Jol a call if we’re after just ‘a foreign manager’. That fits the only criteria you’ve set, we’ll be flying up the league in no time  |

No. But limiting yourself to the domestic pool of 'talent' does limit your choice!

We should have gone for Nigel Pearson when he was available!

Mad Mick is doing ok in his first month. Lost 6 in a row, got Mick in, then D2 w7. Now in the playoffs. We haven't even won 3 in a row in the last 5 years.

Just a random foreign manager or anyone specific? Just anyone foreign (doesn't even have to be a manager). I'd opt for Antoine de Caunes or if we can't get him, Arthur Bostrom doing Officer Crabtree from 'Allo 'Allo. |

Just a genuinely good manager will do, wherever he comes from.

Anybody else miss Johan? 😊

Not quite that simple is it ?
You can still end up with a Felix Magath or whatever his name is.Or De Boar at Palace. That went well....

British coaches are stuck in the dark ages except the ones who’ve played and been coached under successful foreign coaches. How many British coach’s have had success in the UK over the last twenty years? Not many

The theme here seems to be 'we've had ONE of those odd fanglged foreign buggers and it didn't work out - lets stick with good old locals'. How very Stoke-On-Trent. We have to widen the horizon methinks.

I agree with the op and it’s not a obsession it’s a fact if you look at the better managers in this division there all foreign Also we have stuck with home managers since relegation and look how they have turned out. Time for a change |

Like everybody says it DOESNT matter where the manager comes from.
But that isn't the clubs policy on appointing managers is it? It DOES matter to Coates that they are British.

If you think O’Neill is shit then you really need to get some perspective.
He’s the best manager we’ve had for years, working with a handful of players he can rely on and an awful lot of average dross. Tonight was atrocious, no two ways about it, but going back to square one would do nothing to help us. A good summer window and we’ll be right in there next season.
The problem is, he gave us some cause for optimism after being diabolical since relegation. Does this give him a free ride no matter what? Of course not. But he deserves at least another year to see where he gets us. We are never expected to do mic this season and I hoped as much as anyone that we’d have a decent run and attack the play offs. I don’t see it happening now, but let’s cut the hyperbolic shite out please.
