Jokanovic?

By my reckoning, that leaves McKenna, Corberan or Carrick? unless it's someone completely left field. Could be Jokanovic, who was mentioned by Dorsett as definitely on the shortlist, but don't think is on there, is he?

Dear God, it really is the hope that kills isn't it?
I'd have been quietly content with Eustace tbh, but with some of the names being bandied about now I can feel myself getting all giddy, and if we do end up with Super John, I'll just be pissed off now...

MC is talking about Corberan
WBA are in dire financial straits and under dodgy ownership

It’ll be just like Stoke to have Santo & Tomasson in the mixer and then spit out Eustace as the new gaffer.
It’ll be a bit like thinking you’ve pulled Maya Jama on a night out until the lights come on at 3am and it turns out you’ve ended up with Miriam Margolyes.

My hope is with the usual suspects not already being installed that we are actually looking and talking to some of these 'good' names being put forward..

You cant tell me that out of ALL the leagues across Europe (JC cant think laterally and explore other regions of the world) AND out of contract managers at the moment, there arent better options than the shit thats been listed over the last few pages....? Manager jump clubs as weve seen so those in positions RIGHT now should be being considered. Amateurish is what it is... this fuckin club, sometimes you just have to laugh at em..... What do you think of Dick Schreuder? Do you know if he's any good at coaching? Any chance he'll come here? He’s very well thought of in the coaching circles over here, but it’s only what you read in the Dutch footy websites and hear in the chat shows….. if Guus Hiddink and Louis van Gaal sing his praises that’s a good indication imo

After some investigations and considering who would be a generally popular choice amongst the fellow oatcakers I've now decided that Nuno is the one we should go for.

Genuine info on saying "nope"? I don't mind anyone trying their luck at being ITK, I don't care if they get it wrong, but lets face it, they love the intrigue, rather than just saying what they know. Because saying what they know puts their source at risk. Why would they do that? Nobody is interested in his source. We just want names of the front runners. How does that put a source at risk? Cryptic updates with a handful of words that reveal nothing, then not even bothering to answer any of the responses following up on that update, just becomes irritating.

It's not hard I reserve the right to call out attention seeking. If he’s not going to share anything worthwhile, don’t bother. As I say, there is no threat whatsoever to a source by dropping a name. Chopper used to give actual names and he got respect for that. Anything else is just an extra thumb scroll that I really don’t need in my life.

We could do a lot worse than look at John van Lumsden. Took FC Haakenen from the fourth tier of Finnish football to the Champions League, before winning Mjitford's first Danish league title in their history. Now sitting top of the Greek table with Palaokis, and also coaching Belgium U21s. Guaranteed to get a bigger job at some point.
In fact, the only negative is that he doesn't exist and I've just made everything up about his career.

It's childish, but "puts his source at risk" has made me imagine that the kit man might get snipered for telling his mate who Stoke's next manager might be.

Go back 7/8 years and the excitement would be in relation to new signings. Now the only time we get to hyperventilate over extravagant names is when we change managers, which is becoming a more frequent event

Ok was told on Monday top 2 targets are Potter and McKenna (lordb) will confirm. Hence why I said either would take a hell of a lot of persuading. If Nuno is possible, get him in
