Lee Clark

He gives more than a hint to that.
This board does not like to hear straight talking, bad news, be that wrong or right.

I mean, putting out the 30 yr old victory 96. As we get relegated. Are they oblivious to the timing, let alone the irony.

Smith said, relegation only makes a difference to the fans…..and clarke. How true.

[Old_time_miller]

Could he do a Jacket and walk?

Why not, I would if a neutral. He could be cheesed off because he thought, hmmm, do well and a new career, though not necessarily here. Cannot see him as a D2 manager, for a start with the high intensity is a laugh for a start in D2.

We need someone with lower div history, and moreover working under the cash strapped situation this club has been put in.

He will go. Personally for me there is nothing to show at this point to say we should offer a contract.

[Old_time_miller]

As cheesed off as clarke seems…..fans are way more than him.

[RU66]

Know I'm contradicting myself but seen his post Wigan interview may as well give him the chance to give the squad a total overhaul. He'll know more what's needed that getting another manager in who won't looking in from the outside.

Darren Freguson? Plenty of League 1 and 2 experience. IF Lee walks then expect someone like Artell the cheaper option, that is supposed to boost the fan morale.

Not including LC, we've had 4 managers since PW, all to some extent 'exciting' the fan base with their appointment. All have failed miserably. We could get Pep or Pepe Le Pew and they'd have the same level of success given our current ownership/management philosophies.

[MillerBill]

I have just listened to his post match interview and whether or not he is the manager we need or not I do not know but I think he is a genuine guy.Unless there is a massive change at the top and a serious plan to move forward we have a major problem.No one trusts this .board any more and the six and a half thousand, who paid one of highest prices in this league, will not be conned again.

IBS I was wondering that when I watched his interview last night, his body language said he did not want to be here and he was evasive when asked if he wanted the job.

He either knows that he will not be here as TS is selling up or he has just realised how bad things are behind the scenes and knows taking this job will be the end of any chance he has of a comeback

Who is to say won’t be cheap, chances are he will be. Why would he be expensive?

Just watched his pre Orient interview - really can?t be many millers who don?t agree with his take on it all.

A sound honest speaking geordie who given the chance could be a real catch as a boss.

Give it him Tony 🤞

Just because he speaks his mind in public doesn't mean he's a good manager. In fact it could mean exactly the opposite.
His overall record as a manager at other clubs is distinctly average so I'm hoping there might be someone better suited for the job.
Who knows what TS will decide?

[Old_time_miller]

Talk talk, walk walk, are two different things. We have been here before. We don’t need to be in the club to know why, many of this squad came here limping, still getting up to speed. It wasn’t rocket science what was to happen.
Clarke speaks of tracing history before signing….well he does not have to do a deep dive for that.
He has been here a month, and he still does not know?

[Stansmate]

Well that?s 2 of em !!

Are you deliberately getting the wrong end of the stick? Because I thought what LC said, he said in plain English.

In terms of tracing history, he's clearly talking about future recruitment and recruitment in general and doing due diligence on the character and injury records of players before they're signed, not the current players FFS! That was Hamshaw's job which he utterly failed at, hence the mess we're in.
