    I think Wright would have been good for us the year we went down. Stability and making us a stuffy team might have benefited us. It's a no for me now though, his style of football is torture and I genuinely do agree with Carlisle, more negative than the snake whore who just left us.

    No sure who I would want in. Seen the Motherwell gaffer mentioned and that would be a decent shout, other than that, no one name that has been mentioned so far excites me.

    Be interesting to see how Ogren/Ashgar handle this.

    TBH i didnt really rate Neilson. He played his favourites over form players. Struggled to beat part time teams and made some bizarre tactical changes like when he moved Smith to left back among numerous others in the same game. He always tried to find ways to accomodate Pawlett even though he must have known we were a far worse team with him in it. He dropped Watson for Connolly even though our best partnerships were when Watson was playing. He was given the strongest squad in the league with and absolutely lethal front man and if the rest of the teams in the league werent absolutely awful it may have been a different story.

    Whilst the above is true, he did make us better and turned us from a basket case to a team which won the league comfortably and imho I would rather have went up with stability and not with a manager change.

    The biggest issue right now is that we could absolutely find many better managers, but at the same time probably far more worse ones and i think that should be the only thing scaring any Utd fan atm. Lets hope we dont find another Laslo
    Your last sentence is 100% correct,most managerial appointments as we all know do not work out.I mean at every club across the world not just our's.
    There is more chance a club will make the wrong appointment rather than the right one.I hope for all our sake's that Tony and the owners get it right.

    Robbie wanted to speak to Hearts. At that point he was gone, as the owners don't want someone who isn't committed to the cause. I think its that simple tbh.

    Working with a budget that was consistently dwarfed by Hearts’ – and most top-flight clubs – he won the Scottish Cup, reached two cup semi-finals, finished fourth three times and in the top six four times.

    No brainer for me

    hope so...what we need 1st year back up imo
