Potter must be in with a chance of getting the England job when Southgate fails/leaves in the summer? Even if he’s been twiddling his thumbs for a year?

Potter must be in with a chance of getting the England job when Southgate fails/leaves in the summer? Let's face it, the list of potential replacements would be very limited. Eddie Howe (who seems pretty settled at Newcastle) or Lee Carsley (if they promote from within) are the only other English candidates. I cannot see Southgage staying on beyond the summer regardless of his performance. If he wins it (yay) he walked away on top, if they fail to win it (boo) he walks away amicably.

If we could somehow pull off bringing potter in then that would definitely bring the excitement back but realistically it isn’t going to happen.
Potter is a potter has a nice ring to it though!
I suppose it really comes down to who is interested in the job, I mean who is really going to want to come to a club which is currently sitting 20th in the championship?
If it does turn out to be Eustace then I just hope it’s until the end of the season, no 3 year contract on £1.7m per year.

Eddie Howe twiddled his thumbs for over a year, waited for the right club at the right time, and got the Newcastle gig. If I was Potter, why would I risk wrecking my reputation by jumping into a relegation battle at the bottom of The Championship?

Saudi money without having to live there. Smart man.

String a few wins together and you're soon at the other end. Good job they never told cooper don't do it that year at forest

Looking at the alleged "shortlist" in the email I've just had from "Stoke Live" I can see that Heckingbottom might fancy getting back into work to prove the Blades wrong, but why on earth would Tomasson want to quit Blackburn for us ? And its Stooooke City, Stoke City FC, Are by FAAAR the greatest team the world has ever seen,.......Apart from Barcelona, Borussia Dortmund, Real Madrid, PSG, Ajax, the Shit, Man City, Inter Milan, Chelsea, Juventus, Porto, Arsenal, AC Milan and the Bin Dippers. And its Stooooke City, Stoke City FC..........

Because he thinks he can enhance his reputation while earning loads of money.

Sentinel now reporting that Dick Schreuder is in the race 60% win ration as a manager over 194 matches, admittedly nowhere very interesting but seems to play some good football and has a high goal difference against him Aha! The Stoke legend that is Dick Scratcher rises up after lying flaccid for a while! Thought his game was noughts and crosses anyway (Spike Milligan reference for those old enough to know or care).

Saudi money without having to live there. Smart man. Newcastle will go all out for a big name as soon as it starts going south. They have kept with howe because he has got them ticking with minimal spend so didn't need to change, once that changes they will look for the next klopp, guardiola type.

Only 9 points off play offs so need to get the new man in and get a bump up the table, need to have an optimistic outlook

But the point being he's still getting paid enormous amounts sat on his arse and there's some potentially big jobs coming available on the horizon which he'll fancy his chances at. Or as someone has pointed out above maybe he's got the England gig in mind. I'd let him manage us and England if I had my way.

If he hasn't completely blown us out already that's the kind of imaginative approach we need to be adopting with him.

I think he’s biding his time until Moyes gets the sack They're 9th ffs. Isn't he out of contract in the summer? Word is they are replacing him with talk of him going upstairs, weather he fancies that kind of role who knows.
