Absolutely!!! Not a chance that a cricket ball missed Kean's head by inches and he didn't make sure everyone in the media knew he was the victim.

At this rate he will have to be bringing Liam Manning back to life to take the job if the process takes any longer. (I know Little and Atkinson are still alive)

I'm going for Wilcox as DOF. No idea on the manager.

Decisions, decisions...

Michael Duff isn't it?

I never rated N'Zonzi. It used to drive me mad when he'd throw his arms around after losing the ball and not bother running back. I'm amazed that he went on to have the career he did and play for the clubs he did.

His season only started in November, surely that's a short season?

At this rate, your friend's Labrador will be odds on favourite in a couple of weeks.

In fact, if you look at who Sky Bet currently have has favourites, he's by far the most experienced manager out of any of them (as Carvalhal isn't actually available anymore, so shouldn't be on there)

A manager with over 500 games under his belt. Let's go for Ferguson instead.

I'm expecting a manager and I was worried you were it.

I doubt we'd have to pay anything. Sounds to me like Everton want rid, but are too scared to ask him to leave 😂

You'd be pissed off if you were Ainsworth and Ferguson was picked before you. Absolutely nothing to suggest Ferguson deserves a shot more than Ainsworth. What's George Weah up to these days? Can he not put a call in on Ainsworth's behalf?

Not something we need to worry about.

Wilcox is one who intrigues me. He comes very well in interviews but does he actually have the desire to get into first team football management? He seems to be managing a lot of people at City - but not necessarily in a footballing capacity (as daft as that sentence sounds).

He finished above Liverpool and Klopp with an inferior side the season before last.

Recent United managers managing 20+ games (win percentages): Ferguson - 59.7% Mourinho - 58.3% Solskjaer - 54.2% Van Gaal - 52.4% Moyes - 51.9% Rangnick - 37.9% He doesn't necessarily strike me as a top manager, but better win percentages than Van Gaal and Moyes suggest he's not that bad. They finished above Liverpool and Klopp in 20/21. I'd certainly take him over some of the names being linked.

Automatic promotion in his only full season and then sacked in December after a poor start in the Premier League. We should be dismissing the likes of Farke, Dyce and Wagner as contenders if being a success in the Championship but struggling in the Premier League counts as a failure.

It's also where Huddersfield got Jan Siewert from though. That didn't go well.

Wasn't David Bentley the first English man to score at the new Wembley - playing for England U21's?

Let's make it a fair comparison - win percentages in the Championship. Farke at Norwich - 51.4% Mowbray at Rovers - 36.2% They do have similar records in the fact that Farke has won 71 Championship matches with Norwich and Mowbray has won 72 with Rovers. It just took Mowbray an extra 61 games to get that 1 extra win.

I've heard it all now 😂

Speaking of top 2 divisions, I heard a stat the other day that Rovers are now the only club in the top two divisions that haven't played at the new Wembley. I've not checked the validity of that, but assume it's correct.

Ethan Walker?
