We could do worse than Nigel Clough

Watching Mansfield and a manager who actually understands how to play the game,

Giving Arsenal a run for their money and decent football as well.

For all you Parker lovers who say it?s not his fault you should really tune in to see how football should be played.

I think it’s a decent call Army, but he always seems to be these, with respect, smaller clubs. Perhaps someone else will see it and give him a bigger opportunity, not sure he’d take it though.

Its all luck of the draw with these football managers.

We got lucky with Parker and Kompany in our promotion seasons. Pace hasn't learnt nor could he see the wood for the trees by not potting the pair of them around mid November of their 1st Premier league seasons, when it was blatantly obvious neither of them were upto the job

What is blatantly obvious BC is that ALK are not up to the job of recruiting a manager,players and set piece coach of a level that are good enough for the PL.

Word from my always reliable source is that Craig Bellamy is next in line.

That doesn?t fill me with premier league returns soon confidence I?m afraid - much as I like Bellamy that is heart on his sleeve player ( but so was Parker - I rest my case ).

Who would you like then?

I think I?d have a go with Carlos Corberan- word is he?s unsettled at Valencia - a Bielsa understudy with a bit more nouse

Kept west Brom in top 6 without any real backing - has an understanding of what players to get and what he wants - but most of all he wants to go forward and score goals

I also watched clough last week when I posted and I think he?s maybe a rough diamond but who knows where that can take us - Dyche was an unknown really and he did t turn out badly.

Just came back to this ballcock and based on his availability I?d like us to approach Thomas Frank and offer him a project - he?d know have the contacts on recruitment from Brentford and in truth a similar sized club - so whilst I said Corberan I?d take Thomas Frank in a breath and just back him - give him the tools and watch us flourish.

Thomas Frank wouldn't come due to the fact he will still be tied into his West Ham contract and would probably have to take a 50% pay cut.

I like the guy at Valencia the former West Brom manager, I think he would be a good shout

I like the dude who is doing a great job in Munich.
