Anyones better than them two.

Frank Clark- Forest where bottom when he took over and a season after they finnished third, when we finnished as champions.

Dave Bassett could also be a name. Had success at wimbledon.

Ron Atkinson could also be a possiblility

David O'Leary had experiance in the prem (kept Villa up with no money) before and in the Champions League final

John Gregory had a limited amount of money at Villa and when he left they where top of the league.

George Graham- Dull but will sort the defence out and should stay up

Terry Venables kept boro up all those years ago behind the scean

David Pleat- Prem experiance Successful at Luton

Greame Taylor- It won't be nice and certainly watching but we wil stay up with the turnip.Also had a limited amount of money at villa.

Peter Reid- kept leeds up with a win at Arsenal on the last day of the season NO MONEY

Howard Wilkinson- Won the league with Leeds many moons back.

Joe Royle- took City from the second division into the prem.

Lennie Lawrence- Used to a relegation battle, managed Grimsby and Boro kept them both up. (No money at Grimsby)

Eddie Gray- Gave Leeds a fighting chance in the prem after they seemed to be dead and buired. NO MONEY

These blokes have all managed in the prem before and may just get us out the mess where in.

As you can tell though it has to be anybody BUT Souness and allardyce for me

How about you.

Without being biased why didn't you write a one line appraisal of Allardyce like that.

Allardyce - 3 top 8 finishes, cup final, UEFA cup runs - NO MONEY

Instead you give a list of has beens, perverts and crooks.

Anyones better than them two. Look Below

Frank Clark- Forest where bottom when he took over and a season after they finnished third, when we finnished as champions.

Been out of the game for over 10 years.Are you serious?

Dave Bassett could also be a name. Had success at wimbledon.Ditto

Ron Atkinson could also be a possiblility.As above

David O'Leary had experiance in the prem (kept Villa up with no money) before and in the Champions League final.The guy cannot manage.End of.

John Gregory had a limited amount of money at Villa and when he left they where top of the league.Been scuttling around in the lower leagues before settling for doing a bit of media work.

George Graham- Dull but will sort the defence out and should stay up.Been out of the game as long as Don mackay!

Terry Venables kept boro up all those years ago behind the scean.Not a bad choice but a bit too lairy for my liking.

David Pleat- Prem experiance Successful at Luton.Again been out of the game for quite a while.

Greame Taylor- It won't be nice and certainly watching but we wil stay up with the turnip.Also had a limited amount of money at villa. One trick pony-no thanks.

Peter Reid- kept leeds up with a win at Arsenal on the last day of the season NO MONEY.again been out of the game for too long

Howard Wilkinson- Won the league with Leeds many moons back.Ask sunderland fans what they think of him! :lol:

Joe Royle- took City from the second division into the prem.Would be a good choice.......... 10 years ago

Lennie Lawrence- Used to a relegation battle, managed Grimsby and Boro kept them both up. (No money at Grimsby)

Is he still alive?

Eddie Gray- Gave Leeds a fighting chance in the prem after they seemed to be dead and buired. NO MONEY

Good coach but NOT a manager.

These blokes have all managed in the prem before and may just get us out the mess where in.

As you can tell though it has to be anybody BUT Souness and allardyce for me

Allardyce in desparation but Souey has had his time,and given the concerns over Rovers fitness levels when he left,i think it would be a mistake to go back now.

How about you.

Good God! that list looks like an A-Z of good past prem managers yes they may have done good jobs in the past but have all been out the game far too long would have to say the only names that would inspire me with and would get us out of the current do-do we are in

1.BFS.

2.A.Curbishley.

3>GS-last resort if the other 2 turn us down.

That blue and white tie won't have gone down well at the Sunderland interview. At least it wasn't black and white I suppose! :D

What an awesome post (non sarcastically). Do you live near Allardyce then?

Who would you prefer Jose Murinio perhaps? <_<

That's unrealistic and he'd drive me crackers anyway. I just wish I could think of a realistic choice that is not one of the people already mentioned because i still think we could do better than the names so far being mentioned.

Probably went for the Sunderland interview...

Quinn has announced that they will take WEEKS before announcing the new man, we have a window of opportunity here, lets take it.

Favour of Sam:

1. three top 8 finishes (would have finished higher with Bolton had he stayed in the final year).

2. Purchased top players at Bolton, given time, boring players? Anelka, Jay Jay, Diouf to name but 3 players whose careers he transformed.

3. Beat the top sides, Wenger hates him!

4. Is very modern in his approach, Rovers players will like him as this will be close to what hughes did.

Yes, their second team colours are blue aren't they...

For all the folks banging on about ex Premier League managers, there are a few ex-Premier League Managers in the Coca Cola who would presumably come onto the radar and have not been mentioned on here yet- McCarthy, Eck, Coppell, David Jones and Jewell.

Then there are the likes of Martinez, Coyle, Irvine and Grayson who are doing pretty well at present.

The difference between even a relegation haunted Premier League club and a parachute-supported Coca Cola club is so great that a determined Rovers could hook anyone of those out from their current employers.

I would be pretty happy if Sam took over. Reasons why:

He is forward thinking (modern approach) and has plenty of ideas.

He would have decent coaching staff/set-up.

Decent in the transfer market - done it before with limited resources.

Experienced and would have learnt from mistakes at Newcastle.

IMO we cannot get a manager in who is inexperienced, the above are either too young, currently performing badly or not good enough for us.

My personal choice would be the current Celtic manager (name eludes me, it has been a long day!) or Martin Jol BUT the man to take us out of this mire is Big Sam, no question about it, his credentials are ideal for the situation we are in and the financial state of the club too.
