Our best prospect can’t even get in Shrewsbury’s starting 11. Thank goodness someone else feels that way.. don’t get the love for Wassall. He means well and tries to play good football but he’s tactically naive and his record in the academy is poor. Would like a new academy director this summer as well as manager.

Sometimes it’s tears ?♂️ Stimac - you have to be joking.He’s a dodgy character with an awful managerial record. So he was a great player for us (when it suited him ) - so what. In what way does this qualify him to be our manager? I read he’s an early favourite- God help us if Stimac gets the job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yani P Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Was going to say the same about the Academy - one of the best setups in the country and certainly at this level yet delivering little or no output - another Wassall failure? I would get rid of him in a flash as well - new start all round, new approach new fresh thinking.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramsbottom Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Good Shouts - Cook, Warburton, Lee Johnson, Flores Bad Shouts - Simmo, Bilic, Igor, Moyes, Nigel, Carvahal Shouts so bad, I’d **** off up the road and support the Red Dogs - Big Sam, King Bill-eh, Curbishly, Pardue, McCarthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnigmaRam Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 How does anyone know if the academy is a success? You need a manager with some balls to play them. And let's not forget we did finish above the Man Utd academy who were relegated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely this and the significant improvement McClaren made to the team overnight tells you that Clough couldn't get the best out of his players. I was gutted when he went but looking back it was undeniable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SecretDave Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Paul Cook would be my choice. He's got a tremendous track record. Got Chesterfield, Portsmouth and Wigan promoted. Would be an exciting choice. I think if we have to spend some compensation to get the right man, so be it. The manager is the most important piece of the jigsaw.

Carnero Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Aren't we supposed to interview at least one BAME candidate for the role? Don't rule out Chrissy Powell. Or Frank Bruno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommyB84 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Dean Smith for me, always played a great brand of football, despite loosing his best players each season, always kept exciting young players performing and with some experience I’m sure would put together a team to challenge for promotion.

It is true we don’t seem to give many chances to youngsters but equally none have gone on to be great when released so maybe they weren’t that great to start with?
