Someone like Hoefkens would capture the imagination of the fans, but clearly would be a risk. I'd quite like it! Dean Smith? Carlos Corberan? Ryan Lowe?! That kind of manager , yep. He went to Liege fairly recently seen to remember but the way forward, not another Brit. Hoefkens didn't do very well in the league & got the sack he did well in Europe though he'd be way down the list, a bit Lamberty

It’s daft. Roll the dice all the time. There’s not many managers who last. They all seem to have a limited period.

Does paying compo for managers come in ffp accounts? We could have probably brought a £10m striker by now with the amount we have spent, and for what? We love to Rob other clubs managers and then sack them don't we

If Neil was to leave I'll bet my house on a man with a big fat f'ing head. Five pages in and I'm Suprised he's not been mentioned yet, especially being a central defender as a player and favours 4231 which we allegedly have the staff for.
It would be nailed on, experience would be the buzz word. No chance they'd go for a young inexperienced manager and they would be stupid if they did.
I still think Neil has a good half dozen games at least before they even start to get twitchy anyway. He needs to settle on a formation and stick to it so the players can gel quickly because these games will come quick and fast

It wouldn't surprise me if the family went for him either. To be fair, he's light years ahead of Alex Neil regardless of how he's viewed.

He comes across as the type John Coates could get on with aswell, as in he doesn't come across as hard work or an arsehole, infact quite the opposite

We should go female The glass ceiling was broken with Hannah Dingley at Forest Green, we can take that forward with first female permanent coach
Put someone up against her like John Terry , Rooney or Alan Pardew etc who knows the men’s game and can show her the ropes Come on Stoke make history

Scott Parker scares the life out of me.
Could imagine the board would have a right hard on for the two promotions in his CV and the premier league experience.

Parker a name that I noticed… he plays a back 3 too…
It’s an uninspiring list when you consider achievable targets- of which he is one.
Wilder is the obvious Coates choice.
I’d genuine go all in big time on Potter… he’s better off in work than not surely?! Offer him a monstostiry of a promotion bonus and a watchest if promoted.
I’m sure some on here will call me “ deluded” for wanting my club to be ambitious

At one time, he did want the job after all. We’d have to turn on the charm offensive though and basically admit we made a mistake. Not sure Coates is the type to grovel though. Graham will have been bruised by his time at Chelsea. Perhaps we could get his old gaffer Lou to sell the club to him, that we’re another family club like Brighton who can make him feel at home again. Depends also on Potter’s affiliation with us. Has he previously spoken highly of the short time he spent with us? Things like that matter, aside of course from a mammoth salary. That aside, I aso think there is little to no chance of getting him. He’s probably sat tight waiting for the Everton job. If he says no, we move onto a more realistic target.

When he wanted the job before he was the manager of a club in Sweden and we were a Premier League club. Since then his stock has soared and ours has plummeted.

I like Scotty Parker's dress sense and touchline demeanor...
Immaculate style particularly with the cardigans.
I'd be a bit concerned though about a wet Wednesday night. He tends to shun the traditional managers coat and will probably persevere with a fitted suit.
Something of a gamble but could well picture him come May at Wembley play-offs in a smart Italian cotton shirt with top two buttons undone.
Certainly improve on Alex the Jock in the style stakes. Absolutely terrible chavvy choices and sloppy fits.
