A fascist?

IAMOUT!
One of the criteria I look for in a candidate is your disapporoval.

He's not really a fascist... it's a complex cultural thing.

Apparently he used to write a column in Corriere della Sera regularly denouncing the idiocy of racism.
Took the words out of my mouth, BWFCI doesn't like, that can only be a positive.

Anyway, Billy Davies for me, followed by this Hill fella. I'd take McCarthy, think he's better than he's been given credit for, and same goes for Schteve.

Funny but now he's gone it feels a bit of an anti-climax, a bit like Xmas as a kid..

No No No

A thousand times No.

Billy Davies can cause more trouble in 1 day than Roy Keane could in a Year


Better still - put them in a room together and let them fight themselves to a standstill

by my reckoning we done the jobbing manager/ serial failure with Megson .. so that rules out for me McCarthy, Davies et al
and we've done the "Bolton legend" ex player with Coyle .. so not that alternative.
i dunno - a proper interview process involving foreigners and lower league bods might be the answer...

Right, this is just a suggestion and I can't decide whether he's wildly out of our league and could potentially fancy being a boss, but Dennis Bergkamp is currently assistant manager at Ajax...

Thomas Tuchel. Has made Mainz into the 'Bolton of the Bundesliga', is a very clever chap who reminds me a lot of Jurgen Klopp (who funnily enough had the Mainz job before Tuchel!). Tactically astute, has experience of small budget clubs and has potential as well as ambition (ok a move to Wanderers would be sideways/down, but then the potential to move up is good).

If not him, go for Guardiola... even if it's replied to with fits of laughter, at least we tried.

Go on Phil, give Pep a ring, he might fancy it!

It links to an article thanking him on the cincinati football club (soccer) website - he's returning to england for family reasons; his kids in our academy etc...

Thats the kind of mad bastard approach that could pay dividends

it needs someone who "knows football" on the interview process though

hint to phil

that wouldnt be billy davies' agent

On what planet, btw, would anyone go for Billy Davies over McCarthy?! Both successful in this division, McCarthy even more so, both shit in the one above, Davies even more so (his Derby team broke Mick's record for wankness). Neither has a reputation for being great to watch, and Davies is a cock and McCarthy is a dude!
