Like his appoinrment will be , a manager on the decline it won’t be long scunny
Do you think? Lot of Bradford fans I've seen on Twitter seem to think he's an excellent appointment. McCall's got a very decent track record and looked to have been harshly treat when sacked at Bradford. In and around the top six for most of the season, failure to back him in the January transfer window and then sacked him at the first sign of a wobble. Pretty sure they were still in the top six when he got sacked too, a position they didn't come close to reaching for the rest of the season. Whilst I think Scunny are facing some potential hardship with Swann either pulling the plug or at least wanting to tighten the spending, but this is a good appointment in my eyes. Especially when you think Steve Cotterill was also linked with the job!

Cotterill is a lower league Steve McLaren. Can't believe his name still gets linked with jobs. Of course, I'm aware that Steve McLaren will soon be a lower league Steve McLaren.

If they wait long enough and depending how low West Ham go, they may well be in the frame for that job seeing as DC is a Hammers fan.

Danny Dyer's a Hammers fan too, maybe they'll take him on as first team coach.

Scunny always seem to pull a good manager out of the hat when they really need one.
Remember back to 2013-14. They were lower mid-table in League 2 and had just been dumped out of the cup by their non-league local rivals. The tide was about to finally turn against them. Until Russ Wilcox went on an unbeaten run to secure promotion back to League 1. I think we were the last team to beat them that season.
This will inevitably turn out to be a good appointment. Tough times will come when Swann finally decides to stop pouring money into a bottomless pit, but the moment when we pass each other on our way to our 'rightful place', long predicted to be just around the corner on here, will have to wait a while longer.

So if West Ham got relegated and the Cowleys do up sticks at Lincoln inevitably , you couldn't ever see them manage at the Hammers? I think they will manage at a high level, they have a 15% better win rate (currently 60%) than one of our highest ever in Graham Taylor, he didn't do too bad after us did he?

Seriously, no I cannot...in the same way Buckley never got a job bigger than west brom, which hardly went well.. We proved their weakness quite easily, to me they have notechnical nouse, an inability to change a pattern of play during the game and let's get real, they've done okay with you but I reckon they'll struggle with a bigger club, just like Hurst is with Ipswich....I may be proven wrong but I wouldn't count ya chickens yet, West Ham will always pull a big name as a manager, and for as much as you don't want to hear....the Cowleys are just school teachers done good, can't see them ever getting a go at one of the bigger clubs in any league....

[/quote] Well Graham Taylor was a tactical genius, a pupil of the Charles Hughes football school, basically if you lump it into the oppositions penalty area 30 times in a game the percentages say you should score, "do I not like that"
