Anyone listened to Undr The Cosh with Jon Parkin?

Great podcast and they had Holloway on last week who is inspirational. His take on the Oyston's at Blackpool was very interesting.

Listening this morning to Aaron Wilbraham who is still playing for Rochdale at 40. He was raving about Martin Allen, Ian Holloway, Steve Cotterill and Tony Pulis. Appreciate most of them are out of our league but he said their man management was brilliant, Cotterill especially.

Each of them were scary figures who players were scared of upsetting.

Does he have a UEFA Licence to teach tip tap bash?

Chris was a good lad as a player and he’d the nerve and the nous to leave the club when he thought there was more chance of a career elsewhere. He doesn’t have much managerial experience though, less than Limbrick probably but he is a strong character.

Gracious me, his record at Torquay makes our last 3 managers seem a great success

Wilkie was a local lad who knew the club, etc, but was awful for us in caretaker charge after Slade left.

I'm remaining open-minded about all managerial candidates because, when all's said and done (to use a JSF phrase) I have no influence over who the board appoints.

Why wouldn't you interview Chris Hargreaves? He's a candidate worth looking into, for sure.

Of all the *realistic* potential appointments we could make, I'd like to think that we've interviewed Harry Kewell too. When you're in a rut like we are right now, all you want is for someone to come in, steady the ship, get us playing better football and aim to finish in the top half.

Something he did with Crawley on a limited budget. I don't think we'll all agree on who will be appointed in the end, but Kewell would be my choice right now.

because he hasn't been a manger for 4+ years and doesn't seem to have had a job in football for the last couple of years

Quoted from cannylad68
The one local lad that was doing a good job, and was offered the job, was John Cockerill.

He had the guts to turn down the job, because the board refused to release sufficient funds.

Where have I heard that before?


It's probably my memory but I always thought that Cockerill wasn't offered the job as they wanted someone with a higher profile.

Agree that it was likely a big missed opportunity however it played out. Hoped for a similar bounce yesterday.
