Next manager?

[stewarty27]

But Stewarty how can you be so sure that Lennon is not on the radar, have you got some inside intel or something?
The club are playing their cards close to their chest, and if they are to finally do a proper job before appointing our next gaffer, as we all know that a proper job was not done prior to the last two failures being appointed.
So doing it properly this time means there should be a few contenders being looked at and Lennon with his SPFL managerial experience track record as well as his connection as mates with Burrows and Wiggy is on the radar. Whether it happens or not now that's another matter. Hearing a rumour that he has requested to call our new stadium Park Red.
Neil Lennon will have had chats with Burrows, Wiggy and Cormack that is for sure.

I honestly don't think Lennon is good enough that being the starting point he's not on the radar, Burrows friendship is a moot point my assumption is Burrows is a professional and friendship should not be a factor. (It would be like Boris givin his O'l man a knighthood) The fans protestations to his appointment will be a huge factor I suspect that will be uppermost in the minds of the high heidyins and we would have to include Lennons awareness of that, If you really insist on having an ex Tim Davie Moyes will be available soon.

Looks like it’s going to be a 2 horse race between Wilder and Lennon as both been interviewed. I was hoping we could get better. Wilder hasn’t done much at all. Lennon has won trophies at different clubs so looks the stronger candidate as he has European experience also. Wilder would be someone new to the league though and has a sense of humour….he will certainly need it if he lands our management gig.

If it's Wilder it will be another massive turnover of players because he only ever plays one formation and that is the 3-5-2 set up, and i know that from being a Boro fan

He is so dogmatic to that tactical approach it defies belief, even when it's not working he stubbornly refuses to diverge from it

So all the fluffy attacking midfielders at he club, of which there is numerous will be phased out , wingers will be phased out, it will be a back 3 with wingbacks, 3 in the centre and 2 up top and his whole recruitment drive will be purely to play that way and that way alone

He continued to play it at Boro when the dnyamic of the players were not suited to it, as soon as he ****ed off and Carrick came in and switched to 4-2-3-1 it was like a completely different team with the same players

[InversneckieDob]

I myself was hoping Adi Hutter or Ricardo Rodriquez would get the job

Really? You've never mentioned it.
Good to know though.

Scary !!
Do you think he would give it a go up here, or drop us for first decent job that comes up back in England ?

[donsdaft]

Three at the back?

No thank you.

Saw that interview with Burrows, nae impressed.

Something we agree on there pal, i also did not understand some the excitement when his appointment was announced, i was more of a fazat and fit has he deen to merit ah this excitement?
After watching his interview im still in the fazat and fit has he deen camp.
His apparent friendship with Lennon is concerning i guess,
But if it did come to pass that Lennon is our next gaffer i would not be totally hacked off where as some of the names being branded around (wilder again, Mcwinless, strachan ffs)
Lennon is a far better option than any of rhese fkrs
As for the foreign names being mentioned i dont know enough about them to pass any comment.
So its a Lennon vote from me

[Donanddusted]

Why did Mason get a ban yet this constant drivel goes unchecked between haudit' an daudit'?

He would drop it as soon as an English club came in for me

Part of the reason he got sacked at Boro apart from a gradual series of worsening results was he was touting himself out to Burnley who were looking for a new manager at the time

[RED_JOHN]

It looks like it’s happening this week….who do you think is getting the new manager’s job.

Don’t put money on it….Neil Lennon is my guess.

(not my choice)
