I would be happy with Sean Dyche or Chris Wilder. I got a suspicion they may go for Russell Martin. At least Norwich are listening at last!

That wasn't much good. Could clearly hear the away fans giving it to smith, out here on the tellybox. Just a few days ago, he was saying that he was pleased that the next game was away. SAD, SAD, SAD. What a strange creature he is, a lovely man though, by all accounts
It never is. Now for Gawds sake can we have a replacement that isn't in place in 20 minutes and isn't Bloody Martin and has some hope of promotion and hasn't previously played for the club.

I don't normally post on forums plus being a new member ?? But looking at posts on new manager, I believe we need to forget about " he did well there - we might not be suitable - may have lost it - last two clubs he hasn't been so good "

The answer may lie right in front of us - namely Alan manager & Steve assistant

What you all may say, but I suggest that you view Alan's video and look at his and Steve's records and may I respectfully say THEY FIT RIGHT IN. No baggage, know the club and players and have been around the block ( although not as managers ) in some ways similar to Farke.

I await your responses with open mind but - Walter / Wilder / Bruce / Wagner / Parker no ! no ! no !

I don’t disagree as the names being mentioned don’t really inspire me. Problem is, I think the club are after someone with some management experience which Alan hasn’t really got

You've made that decision based on what exactly?
One, thirty minute press conference and a publicity stunt interview by Zoe Ward?

Heavy rumours on Wagner, not sure how credible, as it is a pretty easy conclusion to jump to.

I feel if you were looking at it from an outsiders POV it'd all stack up and you'd expect us to be getting Wagner.

As it goes, I can get more excited about Wagner than I did about Smith. I mean I thought Smith would do better but saw him as being "safe". I feel Wagner would have a little more invention.

I'm not against Wagner, per say, but it feels a little similar to Farke, in so much that it would take time to bed in. It feels like we need a big character in that can make an immediate impact, from a playing point of view, but also as a statement that players and fans can get behind, to give the required confidence boost. That top two is almost out of reach.

Well, this it. It depends what the strategy and desire is.

Are we looking to get promoted at all costs?

Or are we going to accept we've probably f*cked it and get ready to go again next season?

Every time we don't get promoted, it feels like we are walking a knife edge. The Championship is a slow death for a self funded club. I don't think we have the money to regroup and mount a serious challenge next season. And I don't think we have the nucleus of a great squad to do it, either. Like many times before, it feels like we are at an awkward crossroads.
