Wayne Rooney set to be appointed

[tonycrowuk]

Bit tongue in cheek I think, but one name I can't help but think might actually be right in SOME ways is Jesse marsch

Not a bad shout is he out of work could we attract him.

 

[Mr Gillingham]

I would have thought the club will be working on 2 shortlists, one for the Championship and one for League one. Similar to what they will be doing for budgets for next season. A manager with a promotion on his cv is a must in my book.

Before we look at individuals we have to remember the criteria. Amongst others that were used last time.
Plays attacking football
Develops young players
Excellent with media
Modern / empathetic in approach to players and families

Who has these?

 

[Cobi Budge]

Pete Wild? Dave Challanor?

Both really good shouts.

I think we’d only get Challinor if we stayed up though.

You forgot 'Must work under a paltry budget'.

Pretty good budget to be boosted by 2 high profile sales.

I could see us going for somebody like Richie Wellens though.

 

[Cobi Budge]

It’ll be interesting to see what happens with Mowbray and Rowett, considering both are technically employed by Birmingham at the moment.

 

[WoodsyGreen]

Pretty good budget to be boosted by 2 high profile sales.

It remains to be seen how much money generated from sales will go back into the transfer kitty. We reportedly received in excess of £1m for the Snake and his staff yet didn't buy a single player in January when we desperately needed attacking reinforcements.

 

[Argy1e]

Wild wouldn’t take it. He wants to stay up north. He moved Barrow’s training ground to Manchester in part so it was easier for him to commute.

 

[Cobi Budge]

I could see us going for somebody like Richie Wellens though.

A tad underwhelming perhaps but I don’t think that would be a bad appointment.

 

[Emeraldinho]

I wonder whether Danny Rohl will stick around at Wednesday if they get relegated? Worth a punt?

 

[Kernowgreen]

I agree with Biggs' suggestion on another thread, it's time to look abroad. Not just Cornwall, either.

Looking in Cornwall could be very successful - Lots of good managers here !

Good point, well made. I deliberately didn't rule out anyone from west of the Tamar, but I am now getting behind my other snap decision that we need the Spanish Ryan Lowe, whomever that might be.

Michael Duff and Nigel Pearson are two that spring to mind, but as someone else has said it massively depends on what league we're in. I would also be keen on a foreign coach. Someone based in the Arctic Circle in some Norwegian club that knows the challenges of being a bit of an out-post.

I do, however, think that Duff would accept Argyle in League 1
