Williams is Favourite [New Head Coach speculation thread]

But how long can you live with it? The last two seasons haven't been a disaster, but as gumpy said I think we've underachieved in both. Could you live with top half or playoff failure for the next few seasons simply because we're continuing to build for the future?

Yes.if we continue to compete at the top of the league.However I don't think we will be stagnating( if that's how you perceive it)for long as we seem to have an improvement season upon season so far.The squad on paper seems to be getting stronger each season, why the negativity?

Probably because if 'the plan' takes 10 years to get out of this division, there's a fair chance I won't be around to see it finally work.

No change to the odds but they've now lifted the suspension of bets on Luke Williams.

So if there's anything of value to be read into that, with nobody now shorter than 5/1, it's either going to be an unknown name announced next week (foreign or somebody who is currently a no.2)....... or everybody offered the job so far has turned it down and the owners will either need to make whoever they want a better off or widen the net.

LW now come in to 2/1.

Hmm interesting, but perhaps just due to the suspension being lifted on betting? Who knows.

I think it'll either be LW or a new coaching team with joint responsibility (everyone's responsible, nobody's responsible) comprising Alves and two unknowns, at least one of whom will be foreign (most likely Scandinavian). I hope the former happens, but at this stage, and considering the "restructuring the football dept" comment, I fear something whacky is more likely.
