went to see who’s in the front running for the job, we are not on the there no more ? Kevin Nolan

Not for me.

Kevin Nolan -BOGOF

Henrik Larsson anyone. Says in today's Daily Mail willing to start anywhere. Says he doesn't need to do another days work but wants to manage in England . Just missed out on the Southend job . Worth an enquiry.

Unproven as a manager, but was a superb player I will say...is he worth a punt?...not sure to be honest, think I'd rather take a non league, successful manager over him.

Peter Wild from Halifax?

I'd rather have Coleen Nolan

There's been dozens of name bandied around already with every man and his dog having a manager in mind to go for. It goes to show how difficult it is going to be to find our new manager. I wouldn't like to try to find one that's for sure, wouldn't know where to start.

Like us to go down the same sort of route as Lincoln took with a young and upcoming manager with lots of contacts in premiership and championship.
Although i do like the idea of Paul Tisdale as had relative success in this league before and plays the brand of football we all crave.

A friend heard a rumour that we'll have a new owner during the next week or so and he wants to bring in his own manager, hence Jolley's departure. Hearsay, I know, but quite feasible possible if the new owner has a big enough wallet (and probably ego).

Forgive me for being ignorant but what Premier League/Championship contacts did the PE teacher Cowley's have at Lincoln? Maybe they were the PE teachers for some Premier League players kids?

They did have a bit of cash to play with though, not millions but enough to get them going, our next manager will be relying on their powers of persuasion more than a playing budget.

Actually I don’t think we need to add loads of new players we just need to get the ones we have to keep the ball for a bit, pass it to a team mate who’s found some space start doing that and we’ll win the odd game or two.

I bet you would!

Choosing a manager is a lottery. Most of the time it doesn't work out.

All you can do is try to pick someone who matches your philosophy as a club. I think jolley matched that. Blooding the youth and getting involved with the community.

This match up works both ways though. And it seems our boards ambitions didn't match jolleys. I hear the final straw was the Stevenage game where fenty cancelled the players overnight hotel. Leaving three players to go down anyway and pay for themselves. Not exactly a board who are 'going for it' this year.

Therefore the next manager must be one who wants to progress youth through the club and play attractive football our fans want to see. The likes of Holloway just wouldn't put up with fentys excrement.

Tisdale would be the stand out for me. But feel he would be looking for a job higher up the league.

Ian evatt is doing wonders at Barrow on limited funds. And if he has learnt anything from his time playing under Holloway then he will progress further up the leagues.

The problem is the board. Their complete lack of any involvement of progressing the club. You can do excrement loads more to build a club than just chuck Money at it. So who bloody knows who the next manager will be. Probably be the candidate who agrees to team up with fenty and lay into the poor guy hosting the next agm.

Here's a complete daydream of an idea. We all know from past employment and listening to him on the radio Mr Buckley's footballing beliefs, well, appoint him only to the end of the season with instructions to get us playing on the deck with the same squad that Mr Jolley could only seem to manage hoof ball. That way we would all hen know if it was poor coaching or that's all the players were capable off.

At least its kept you lot occupied over the weekend. No wkend football again and the forum would of been quiet. At least you can all talk and whinge about who,s gonna take the realm. I,ll just wait and let the board decide. Carry on whinging :)

That’s the most patronising post of the week, well done and enjoy the view from the moral high ground!

Kevin Nolan -BOGOF

He's that good you want two of them  ;)

Please god paul tisdale.

As long as we paying Fenty back we'll have a paltry budget and anyone will do well not to struggle.

Just heard Harry Kewell being lined up. Not sure if it's true or not?

I’m sure he would last what 4 months?? If that

Good to see that two managers who contributed to Notts County's relegation last season are in the running, then.

Would maybe have useful contacts in the Swedish league which could be worth explori.......oh hang on.

Quoted from RichMariner

As I said on another thread given County had three managers in the season it’s most likely relegation was more to do with the players than their management. Kewell had a tough start at Crawley but stuck to his beliefs on how he wants the game played and they finished that season well and started the next ok hence his appointment at County.

Heard him speak on Sky’s Debate programme a few times and he comes over very well so his appointment would be ok with me.

On another point when he was at Leeds and his Mrs on Emmerdale they had a second home just outside Lincoln at Burton Waters so if they still own that may help in any possible relocation.

Maybe but I feel that highly successful and well paid players would struggle to understand the budget restraints of lower league football clubs.

Yes, agree entirely, what we need is someone who undertsands budget constraints at this level ,  possibly with a strong financial background with some coaching qualifications who understa...........oh hang on

That may be true, plus the fact that their expectations of what the players of that level can achieve on the pitch can be too high.

Just to modify that - unless you are like Mike Lyons and find the players are actually better than you. ;D

Whoever the next applicant for the job is, he needs to do his homework on our board, trawl through the comments on this site and only then apply if he has serious masochistic tendencies.

I do find the comment about the Stevenage game impossible to believe. When a club plays away it's travel expenses are paid by the home club, which in that case would have been Stevenage. Those are the only monies a club gets from an away game.

Quoted from barrattstandman

Henrik Larsson anyone. Says in today's Daily Mail willing to start anywhere. Says he doesn't need to do another days work but wants to manage in England . Just missed out on the Southend job . Worth an enquiry.

It was a strange saga involving Larsson and Southend. Ron Martin (Southend's owner) had negotiated with the Swede for weeks and was all set to announce his appointment when the third member of the proposed new management team, Tommy Johnson, took a job with another League One team; it turned out to be Blackpool. As a result the whole deal was off because Larsson felt he needed the Englishman's knowledge of lower division English football if he was to take the job.
I think it was a very fortunate turn of events for The Shrimpers because as a consequence they appointed Sol Campbell. Although he's yet to pick up a point since his arrival I think there's good reason to be optimistic if you're a Southend United supporter now Campbell is in charge. I thought the Larsson appointment would have been a high profile disaster.

Think that’s only for 12pm or earlier  kick offs

Quoted from chaos33

EFL  rule  27.4  

Thanks. EFL rule 27.4 says that the away club will receive money from the home club if the game kicks off before 12.
As a general rule, away teams don’t have their expenses paid as was implied. I can’t remember what time that game kicked off. Also, I wasn’t aware that away teams received ‘no other monies’ from away games. I thought they received a portion of ticket sales.

I think in the cup they're split but in the league you just retain your own gate receipts.

So if you sell 1000 tickets for an away game don’t you get any of that revenue?

If we sell them from our ticket office we get a small commission.

Right. Cheers. I’m clearer now.

Yes, I remember when we played Blackpool on NYE a few years ago my Pool supporting mate paid a bit more at BP so that Oyston didn't get a cut.

As for before 12, have we ever played a game at that time?!
