Villarocker Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Martin O'Neil for me as he at least got the players playing with passion. I too am a fan of Simon Grayson and have been suggesting him since before Sherwood. He has a good record and it would be nice to get someone in with previous experience at the club. I know that doesn't make a massive difference all the time but I do think that it would be nice to have a manager who has the club at heart.

KSV Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Spoiler What about which manager has worked with our current coaches? Are they staying? Will the new manager like Wagner or Bruce want his own team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolves fan I spoke to said his team selections were nothing short of ridiculous and i base my opinion on his observations, he is a season ticket holder who watched the whole thing unfold.

dont_do_it_doug. Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 I'd take Martin, yes. He would do the job. Proper players manager, there would be no questioning their attitude at least. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also got Ireland through a group with Holland and Portugal unbeaten to get to the 2002 World Cup. Not saying he's the best out there, but the evidence is there that Wolves were better off sticking with him (which IMO is also the case with us and Lambert) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREAT_BEARD_OF_ZEUS Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Allardyce would be my top appointment. If he’s thick skinned enough to come back into the limelight straight away, which I think he is (both physically and mentally ) he would at the very least stop us conceding so many stupid goals! Plus he’d be well up for sticking it to Newcastle! Bruce worries me for two reasons – firstly he spunked a shed load of cash on his Hull squad the year they went down and it did nothing. Secondly they went on a really bad run towards the end of last season just before scraping through via the playoffs. Wagner – I admit I know nothing more than what he’s done this season, but on paper he looks like the ideal long term choice. Plus you’d hope he’d get a few loanee’s from Klopp in January!

I honestly can't think of anyone gettable that I'd really like, I just hope he can do the following: Put out a team which consists of midfielders. Puts players in thier correct positions. Wins some games. This would mean he would instantly become the best of the last 3 managers we have hired. UTV. 0-10-0 formation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
