hell no to hughton..............guess he'd be the 'yes' man kentaro want with sod all say in transfers, never Jol without full transfer authority

would love Holloway, fairly sure he's good enough not to get us relegated And thats good enough for me right now

Some real garbage names being linked right now thank god pardews already taken, 1 down

[den]

If it's Hughton I'm in the River Lostock tonight.

See ya. Good luck guys.

[PAFELL]

With Sam Allardyce's shocking sacking today, I guess the speculation (and rumours) of who the new Rovers boss will be can begin.....

Speculate away.....

My choice now would be

houghton (spelling)

hughes

the one at WBA - forgot his name.

[riverside returns]

big name wanted!!! Big name may be coming. Not the usual dross!

[Tim Southampton Rover]

Didn't Maradona want to become a Premier League manager?

I wouldn't know whether to laugh or cry.

[dr_awol]

McClaren

just wanna throw that out there.

[Presty On Tour]

Klinsmann!

[Alex Rover]

Rumour that Sam may go to West Ham to try and do what he did for us.

That would make Avram Grant available. Yikes.

[Amo]

Hughton & Holloway still have a lot to prove at the top-level. That's the kind of gamble that could see us relegated.

the 2 Martins favourite 4/1...Shearer at 16/1?

[The Gull]

Didn't Maradona want to become a Premier League manager?

I wouldn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Just what I was thinking when I seen him on the list at 33/1.

Would certainly generate the publicity they are after!

[tonygreenbank]

I would like Gianfranco Zola who is available

[Bobby G]

Unless these exotic names like Jol or Rijkaard are given a lot of money, there is no point. Plus mid-season, what a risky move this was.

Not O'Neill. Please not O'Neill.

[watty]

Who ever they bring in now it has to be a BIG name to warrent the Sacking and get the fans back on bourd, frank rijkarrd anyone?

[John]

The word average comes to mind when looking at the potential replacements...

[RibbleValleyRover]

I think we should wait and see who is linked, the departure of both Sam and McDonald might mean we may see someone linked pretty soon.

I do know I definitely don't want O'Neill as manager.

[reybr]

Wouldn't surprise me if Eriksson arrives. Kentaro was the agency that brought him to City and now they are Venky's advisors?

the 2 Martins favourite 4/1...Shearer at 16/1?

Can't believe than Jose and Capello are 50/1. That makes me at least the same in that there's as much chance of me being Rovers manager as those two ....

[ptholt]

I cant see it being king kenny, he would never come back.

martin jol doesnt play particularly exciting football or didnt at spurs so cant see him fitting the bill (not sure how he has got on in holland).

martin o'neill would only come if we have hundred of millions to spend.

dave jones or holloway being touted at my bookies

[Amo]

I would like Gianfranco Zola who is available

[Dunnfc]

Its going to be boring martin jol

I want bilic in! and venkys out ... truly a sad day for any rovers fan!

[daveoftherovers]

You've got to ask what the score with the bookies is, Gary F'ing Megson at 10 to 1?????

Whoever said they were unimpressed with the list thus far has got it spot on for me.

Not a great day for the club, I just hope there is a suitable explanation for this.

I know all the Sam haters will be made up, that's for sure, who do they want then?????

Thankyou Sam for Keeping us up and last years 10th.

[Tom]

What are the odds on a Hodgson return? May be out of a job soon enough.

Please don't be Curbishley, Hughton, Dowie or the like. Riikjard or Maradonna would be the 'worldwide' names if they wanted to go that route but would be pricey.

Is Laudrup out of football due to illness at present?

You have to think someone will be in quick now.

[Valois]

Who ever they bring in now it has to be a BIG name to warrent the Sacking and get the fans back on bourd, frank rijkarrd anyone?

Rijkarrd would be a great option, but im not sure he would be tempted with Rovers. Im sure if he was to try his hand in the PL it would be with one of the bigger clubs.

Jason Robers on Sky Sports News, he sounds delighted Big Sam has gone. Not surprised really.
