New manager wishlist

[dallydally]

Apparently there's an application in from Eustace who says "I made  a mistake - please can I come back?".

I know for a fact the manager in work that was interviewed yesterday was Damien Duff. 
 

Surprised at that, he was managing Shelbourne last night.

If the players want him then we might as well give it to Lowe until the end of the season.

I'm absolutely terrified of someone new coming in and trying to make their mark with bit changes etc

All we need now is encouragement and game management.

[roverandout]

We need an experienced head to get us over the line.  We'll never have a better chance.  Keep lowe as assistant but a few bad results and things could go pear shaped 

[Blackpool_Rover]

Yes it could go pear shaped but he's been here years and he knows the players. It could go pear shaped with anyone new coming in. I think it's a risk worth taking. He's certainly managed his two games well.

Still don’t think give it Lowe, it’s one thing holding the fort with no expectation long term, as soon as there’s a extended period it’s a different matter 

[BigHoz]

Our job looks a lot more promising now, next year if in the championship not so much. Get someone decent now, only take a defeat for heads to drop and fans to start moaning why haven’t we got anyone 😂 lose lose either way.

Seeing Kenny there today made me wonder about an outlandish idea - bring him in as manager in name, while leaving the day-to-day to Lowe, Johnson, et al. Its been a decade or so since he was active and it didnt end well at Liverpool, but he would be a big inspiring name, and also the continuity candidate who wouldn't look to instill his prescribed style of play. With his history with us and the anniversary, it would be poetic if we then somehow win the play-offs...

Credit to Lowe and the players. The opposition have also been abject in the last 2 games. 

Plymouth are the worst side I've seen at Ewood in many a year. 

I don't rate Rooney as a great manager, but nobody could get performances out of that squad.

[joey_big_nose]

Think Id give it to Lowe and DJ now. We have looked really good, if we bring someone in they might have an adverse effect as they try and change things or impact the team spirit.

Edit - I would say manager decision announced after Swansea gane just to give a bit more time to check the wheels dont come off.

The more I think about it, the more I fancy Duffer... Him and Damien Johnson you'd expect to have a good relationship..  Could be a positive chemistry .. Played under some very good managers too..  Rather see one of our own have a crack than a O'Neil to be honest with you...

Maybe Eustace has apologized and applied!

[roverandout]

I don't think lowe would want it.  He looks uncomfortable in front of the camera.  I think he'd be happier being part of the backroom staff.

Stinks of Kolo Toure's spell at Wigan. It didn't go well!

[roverandout]

It doesn't really matter who we appoint.  No manager will work out here till the pune loons have gone.  As gav says venkys out nothing else matters

[BigHoz]

150+ applications and it’s boateng and boa morte being interviewed 😭 someone’s talking bollocks surly

Liverpool Echo touting Stevie G

[B16Rover]

Luis Boa Morte would be a horrendous option.  Not due to any of his managerial experience, in fact I've no idea if he's any good.  He just used to wind me up 

[Neal]

Anyone heard a rumour of Gerard being at the training ground yesterday?

He's failed everywhere he's been after Rangers, so sure why not.

A mate who's asking if anyone has heard the rumour... Not sure where he heard it.

I'd take Gerrard in a heartbeat.  Play off final lampards Coventry v Gerrards rovers
