What's  is managerial experience?


Assistant manager at Harrogate Town.

Doubt he would come anyway, as he feels Fenty pulled a fast one over his last professional contract with Town.

Though he was a loyal servant to the club; it is ludicrous to suggest a team that is trying to get promoted (and has the stature and fanbase that needs to stay in League 2 or above) should employ someone who's only managerial experience is some college kids and an assistants job at a team 2 leagues below where we want/need to be.

Didn't work with Scott and Hurst, plus Macca hasn't exactly been round the block he's only ever been at one professional club - he certainly won't have many contacts.

We need a streetwise manager, one who will let us play the dirty tricks other teams play - I couldn't care how dishonest we are as long it got us out this shambles of a league.

If Macca was any good as a manager the world of football would have noticed by now. It's years since he retired. If we really want to contemplate replacing PH it has to be someone with a comparable record at this level or close to this level and there aren't that many names out there.If there's nobody available and in our budget then we can afford to wait until there is rather than make panic appointments.

Appointing someone for 'pride' and/or 'passion' reasons alone is a terrible idea.

Of course it is. It's an absurd idea.

With an experienced number 2, ie an ageing manager why not? If the guy wants to throw his hat in the ring (should Hurst leave) then all power to him. If he is willing to put his rep on the line then fair play.. It doesn't always go mammaries up..
