    Appointing Allerdyce would be compounding the problem, he's a footballing dinosaur and has done nothing in these four games that anyone of us couldn't have done, the team on Sunday looked no better or confident than the team that came out for the second half against Palace. There's a very good reason he's been out of work for so long since we came along with our desperate hope that he had a magic wand. Not that he'd be my choice, I think they will go for Viera.

    Not quite sure why the Palace board saw fit to sack Viera, despite the run of poor results that preceded the bullet being fired. He had managed to get a fairly dismal squad to get behind Zaha as the figurehead (maybe when Zaha was injured it took the ground from under the team?), but in any case he constructed a squad with real potential, including the likes of Olise. Anyway, if he came to LUFC and had sufficient backing (and THATS the big question) I think he could do well.

    A lot of Palace fans thought he had become too negative and wasn’t playing to the strengths of some of the attacking talent they have (or playing iit).

    Results since appointing Roy H suggest they made the right decision accepting it is impossible to know what Vieira would have achieved.

    Think Potter would be a sensible option, seems to recruit well, able to work on a average transfer budget, knows English football.
    Gerrard must be a no-no - would prefer Allardyce to him

    I agree, and would be very happy with Potter and very unhappy with the Fat criminal or the Scouse muppet.

    Potter would prefer to wait for a Prem side.

    It would be too funny if you appointed Lampard.

    But honestly I can that happening with your board.

    Latest favourite (depending on which bookies you believe) is Steven Gerrard with Gary Mac as his assistant.

    Potter or Rodgers for me.

    Unrealistic but would be excellent- Potter/Rodgers/Iraola
    Realistic- Corberan, Bowyer (not sure about Bowyer but I'd back him for sure)
    Probable but not desirable- Gerrard, Parker, Vieira

    Likely on first day- Skubala with no players having been signed due to ownership issue.

    I really hope we go out and sign Potter, be a good job for him out of limelight to rebuild his reputation but pretty sure he'd want another PL job. Though if he wants to build a team what better opportunity than Leeds in Championship, gets us up with a squad he likes, could make a good fist of it. Football doesn't work like that though he will probably be managing Bournemouth or something in 6 months
