Curtis Woodhouse the latest favourite with Sky Bet and Adkins out to 3/1.

I reckon they got about as much idea as we have.

He must have put a bet on himself, doubt very much he has a chance but best not to say too much in case he comes round and punches me

New concept forum football 2017

How about a collective fishy management, we put all our strengths into one CV.
Then on the night before the next game we all discuss who the starting XI and subs for the game and the formation we will play.
Then each game a different member of the fishy sends our selection by video link to Fenty & Co

Hang on, he might want to charge us £160 per selection

We already have the process set-up as we do this every week anyway

On a serious note I want our next manager pitch side for the whole 90+ mins not keeping warm in the Main Stand.

I saw an old Cod Almighty t-shirt earlier and thoughts drifted to Ivano Bonetti, I wonder what he is doing now? He was quite successful in Dundee for a while, though plenty of cash to splash. Maybe his odds will be shortened, especially if the ladies of Grimsby get to hear about it!

I had no problem with PH spending part of the game in the Main Stand. The higher up you go in the stands the better perspective you get of the shape and performance of both sides. I sit half way up the Upper Findus , fairly close to the half way line and you get a really good view of how the game unfolds. When I used to go in the Lower Findus I never got this perspective. This was highlighted to me a lot when I used to watch games and then see the highlights on television. It was almost like watching two different games. I often think this is a reason why so many opinions of games differ on here. Different views do give differing opinions on how some players played and the overall shape and dynamic of the team.

Surprised that Gary Caldwell isn't getting many mentions, League one manager of the year last year with Wigan but without the profile of Adkins and so more likely to come to us.

At the very least Curtis Woodhouse would be great at coaching for set pieces and corners.

He was the last player to put a decent one in.

To be fair, most of Woodhouse's set pieces weren't exactly that clever - he just punted lots of balls into the box towards our two 6'7" central defenders and it worked out from time to time, unsurprisingly!

Really a very good point.
