[Archived] New Assistant manager

[imy9]

Carlos is an excellent shout, probably one of the best number 2's in the world.

Carlos is an excellent shout, probably one of the best number 2's in the world.

He would perhaps make it easier to attract players too, given that he has a "name" in football.

Doubt it's him though

[FourLaneBlue]

Ronaldinho.

Player-Assistant Manager.

Or...Chris Samba, in a desperate attempt to stop him wanting to leave. The armband didn't work, so try, try again...

[John]

That's why I said him.

He's out of work and was interested in working with the Wales squad. He's also a very well liked person in the football world, especially after everything he went through. It would be good to see him back involved in the game.

Also I thought the most obvious choice would have been Chris Coleman but I am not sure that would 'make people take notice'.

In relation to Hartson, not sure what Kean's thinking is, but would have thought we would go for the best man for the job in this instance, therefore someone a bit more experienced.

Mark Lawrenson

[Tim Southampton Rover]

I hope so too. I would love to see someone with as much experience as Wilkins but also has that 'wow' factor which does show that we mean business.

Mark Lawrenson

Stop him being negative about us all the time! Hartson isn't a bad shout as he said on last night's hightlights show that he was looking to get into management.

Kamy here.

If the name that I have heard is true then I think that people will be pleased, he definitely has pedigree and would be a very good appointment. Afraid not allowed to post the name as source asked me not to and am not 110% sure that it is correct, although this source is very rarely wrong.

What I will say is that if the name that I have is right, then I can say that he is not British and the name has not been mentioned on this thread yet.

Hopefully the announcement will made tomorrow.

[Tom]

Is it finally Henk ten Cate time?

Wonder if my 3 year old bet is still valid.

[Steve Moss]

. . . Clarke, Sbragia or Wilkins come to mind.

Yes, yes and yes. I can't see us being lucky enough for any one of the three, however.

[chaddyrovers]

Is it finally Henk ten Cate time?

Did well at Barcelona as Frank Rijaard number 2. Also wasn't he at Cheslea as First team coach under Grant.

Did he not apply for the rovers job after Mark Hughes left?

Also I think we could do with coach who can work with the strikers and improve them. Somebody like a Mike Newell. Former Rovers player and did well at Luton as manager

[bennyboyt11]

Roy Hodgson? Or has he already been mentioned...

[Iceman]

probably somebody from Brazil, brought in, as part of VENKEAN'S master plan to lure Ronaldinho.

Majiball here, Kamy.

Has anyone guessed him yet?

[brfcshabba]

Is it Akon?

[Amo]

Sheesh, don't any of you like surprises? It's like watching kids at Christmas.

I've checked the wardrobe and under the bed...........He's not there.

[phildinio]

maradona, pele

[True Blue & White]

Lennox Lewis

[Grez]

Dennis Bergamp?

[Waggy76]

Salgado ?? May not be a bad shout !!

[Iceman]

probably nobody will be unveiled tomorrow, despite Kean saying so. rather tired at this crap now. why not just unveil somebody, without saying anything before the time.

[Kelbo]

Yes, yes and yes. I can't see us being lucky enough for any one of the three, however.

Kamy says he is not British!

Henning Berg?

[Valois]

Salgado ?? May not be a bad shout !!

Clearly got the idea from mine and Kelbo's post on the transfer thread. It was said with tongue in cheek as a player/assistant manager.

I would love for it to be Berg, but have a feeling it wont be someone who has previous connections with the club.
