Portsmouth were not good but not awful under Grant in my humble opinion.

They would have been relegated regardless of the points deduction though.

Grant's biggest problem is that he can't organise a defensive unit. West Ham were an absolute shambles at the back last season, and they had arguably better personnel to choose from than we do now.

Teams were just able to walk through their midfield, and that was when he could pick from the likes of Parker and Hitzlesperger. How would he cope with Dunn and Pedersen?

I just can't understand for a minute why any team in the relegation zone would look at a manager who has been relegated twice in two years and think "that's the man we need!". I can't think of a single reason.

Would've thought Curbs would be higher.

Are the bookies taking into account that we have the weirdest owners in the league who don't want to spend a penny on the club?

Roy Keane! Can't stand the chap, but it'd be worth it just to see him kick Venky's backsides!

Is there a way of having all names on a poll and rather than just voting for your 1 favourite voting for your top 3 that way after everyone has picked hughes you can see who everyone would be happy with if he wouldn't come.

[Bluefudge]

I'd take Keith Hill........

Anyone pleAse, just anyone will do !!!!!

Not at all and if Von Greenbacks not on there, then surely he's worth a cheeky flutter as he's the cheapest option by far.

Grant is 10/1

Best bet is surely Dave Jones at 14/1. No club and SEM/Kentaro client.

How can O'Neill's price be so short? Don't they know he's got a job now?

[John]

Watched Curbs on SSN earlier, would take him.

[Neil Weaver]

Let's face it, nobody who might come in will save us from relegation. So it's pointless and potentially expensive (if he has to be paid off) to chase a top name. I'd settle for a Curbishley who I THINK would be willing to try to get us promoted and wouldn't be a total embarrassment for the rest of this season. Questions though - would he be cheap enough, willing to work with the Venky's idiots, move north, take on the 'challenge' of getting us out of the Championship? Having asked that of Curbishley, who would accept those provisos I wonder?

[Makey11]

Looking at them odds some people could make a fortune on our next manager! Weve got to get rid of cock head first though..

[Blackburn Ender]

Consider the prospect of Kean being sacked tomorrow or Wednesday and the Chicken Lickers not bothering to appoint a new manager.

Just promote the No. 2 or No. 3.

Who's your money on?

Could it be any worse than what we have?

Would be a huge improvement over this clown. About as good as we can hope for tbh.

[Makey11]

1 manager on that list (curbishly), others nowhere near. But think very cheap and been out of football for a long time.

They have done that before !

Please be wrong about this ! I really think my life long love affair with Rovers could finally be over if they even considered appointing another SEM/Kentaro client.

[John]

Jones has always struck me as a creepy type of person, would hope for better.

[Darwen Rover]

Benitez till the end of the season for me...

[davulsukur]

Curbs or Hughes i'd say. Hughes would probably only sign on till the end of the season.

Grant or Shearer would be a disaster.

[AJW]

interesting sub-plot

do venkys appoint someone to keep us up or appoint someone for life in the championship?
