Quoted from Will Haddock
No-one's mentioned Shaun Derry.
Remember him as a battling passionate player, what's his management record like?


Well Cambridge have just got rid.

At the end of the day whoever, the board choose will not appease everyone. It's a gamble no one can predict whether or not they will click you need a lot of luck as well and let's face it Slade never had any of that.

People say you make your own luck but there is nothing you can do about Ref's or injuries.

There is no way Fenty and the board want failure why the feck should they which is why a rolling contract is a sensible way forwards such a big investment needs caution.

I’d much prefer to see a “young” (I.e. recently retired - in the last 5 years or so) ex player get the gig - someone who can appreciate how modern players think & act, as well as someone who has the coaching badges to back it up.

You only have to look at what someone like Harry Kewell is doing at Crawley to see there must be some decent ex-pros looking for their first opportunity on the managerial ladder and who are keen & willing to come to a place like Grimsby to do it.

When I see certain names (*cough* Phil Brown *cough*) I just find it immensely depressing to be honest’ - i’d Be gutted if we got a journeyman.

Whoever we get this message board will be split between those who thinks it's a good appointment and those who don't agree. For all the flak that JF has taken over his managerial appointments over the years there have been for and against on this site. Even when RS was appointed there were many on here who thought it was a good choice. In the same token Bignot and Newell received their devotees as well as their detractors.

I remember Edinburgh offering a Town fan out in the Main stand and when the Town fan confronted him he made sure he got arrested then spouted off some more.Quite a few in the Main then got involved and it could have turned really nasty but for some good stewarding.I was disgusted with his actions with him having been in the game over 20 years but of course this doesn`t mean he can`t manage?

I'd be more than happy for Justin Edinburgh to be given the gig!

What about Micky Mellon? Did well with Fleetwood and Shrewsbury and now doing well with Tranny in the Conference.  I'm not sure what his playing style is like but got to among the shortlist.
