[Archived] Nicko's Thread Part 3

[yoda]

Thats the only name I can think of outside of the UK who would be terrible and interested in the post. Does anybody have any other names that could seriously have been considered?

Really,

What about Eric Cantona,

Then the ###### really would hit the fan

Wouldn't Cantona be able to bring in some big names with his reputation. Our staff would consist of martial arts experts which I feel would only improve our disciplinary problems.

Just a thought for everyone really, would JW really fly out to Europe to meet such a bad name. Jiminy Cricket, if that was true, it shows you what he thinks of his shortlist?

The poetry would go down the pan though!

Chuck Norris?

[Hi Mack]

ooohhhhhhhhhh nicko you tease!

[AndyC]

Allardyce would be a trillion times worse than McClaren.

in your opinion.

i'd be happy with sam. he certainly has something to prove now!

[malk]

That "bloody good reason" would be cold, hard cash. The parsimony of the trust/board is killing the club.

Laudrup maybe but isn't Bilic on something silly like 130K a year (how does he feed himself?). Surely we can offer them something they'd take.

Plus, how many jobs are there that will pay more than we will at the moment?

Thinking about it, surely Getafe can't have paid Laudrup that much?

Thinking about it more, did you mean transfer funds, because that is obviously fair enough.

[my_name_is_Earl]

Is anyone else now at the stage where we will accept whoever as the new gaffer just so that we can get some stability behind the scenes before the summer transfer rush?

I'm getting there but WwB would seriously push that......

[novella]

completely ignore mcclarens international record and he's not too shabby at club level. he would have to lose his defensive approach with us though.

[Mc Love]

As long as its not Paul Ince, earl then i honestly dont mind

[bats]

Nicko do you have any update on the takeover situation?

[my_name_is_Earl]

As long as its not Paul Ince, earl then i honestly dont mind

Just out of interest, why would that be? I haven't made my mind up about him yet and I'm just looking for reasons whether to like him or not.

[Mc Love]

Prob better to keep in the nickos takeover thread. So as not to get mixed up

[madrover]

I don't think anybody could be worse than brain kidd? or woy hodgson! both were a disaster!!

[Mc Love]

I dont like him, and i dont think he would bring anything good to club, seeing that he hasnt had a great history with the club.

[John]

A lot of people within football don't like Paul Ince.........

That's fair enough really. I could forgive him for wht he said if he could bring success but I just can't see how he would be able to handle our current playing staff. If he's not got the badges, god knows what qualifications his staff have?!

he has good ties with inter milan though, might get some decent loan players for us.

[S15]

he has good ties with inter milan though

I particularly like this one...

[promoted2001]

Ince

Pros: Done well at clubs his managed, was a very good footballer back in the day

Cons: No coaching badges, some bad remarks about Blackburn in the past, We'd be a stepping stone, no experience above league 2

BFS

Pros: Did well at a bad club (notlob), a few good purchases in his time

Cons: Newcastle, Quite a few bad bits of business, won nothing, boring tactics, was manager of notlob

McClaren

Pros: Former England manager, good cup runs, his actually won something , Did ok at a poor club (boro)

Cons: England, he looks like a wally in the rain, seemed to freeze up under pressure, England, Quite poor in the transfer market, Did I mention England?

The choice is ours!

[Iceman]

Domenech is now available.lol

[spencey7]

Good lord, we really are clutching at straws with this shortlist aren't we??

Can't see Nicko's reason for not giving us this infamous "new" name - Is it to prevent other newspapers scooping the story?

Please don't be holding back because you don't want to disappoint us Nicko, I can assure you absolutely no-one will surprise us after the week we've had.

[S15]

Why are Bolton and Boro ''poor clubs?''
