Roy Keane was watching in his role at Salford on Saturday. I wonder if Roland gave him a quick heads up! 😉 A few available managers: Liam Richardson Stephen Schamacher Mark Kennedy Dino Maamria Gareth Ainsworth Brian Barry-Murphy Jimmy Flloyd Hasselbaink Gary Rowett Paul Simpson Ryan Lowe Dean Holden Likelihood is it’ll be none of those!! I think JFH would take the job if offered but even he is probably too pricey for us, with the current situation regarding the sale of the club im thinking maybe we offer a manager the job until the end of the season and tempt them into accepting a wage we can afford with a tidy bonus if they keep us up |

I would have thought that considering our current league position, the priority is to avoid relegation. This is not the time for fanciful appointments of untried coaches, or former players. We need to appoint someone tried and tested, even if only until the end of the season. I think the idea behind the  ex player suggestions is their geeing up ability, their hard working approach. |

Here’s one from left field….Damien Duff! Just won the LOI Premier division with Shelbourne for the first time in 18 years! They started the season as 25/1 long shots and were one of the favourites to be relegated! Nice name for the new owners to get people excited about!

I’m slightly wary of having another left footed attacking midfielder who used to play in the Premier League in charge 😉

If we could get in Scott Brown that would be amazing. If the takeover is close and money could be made available, this is the guy we should get it. A rumour I’ve heard and this would really excite me if it happens.

i think that's the big question now, is the investment/takeover close, and if so will the new potential investors/owners be involved? if not id imagine it will be an interim appointment

Looking after training this week is Sean Parrish and Brian Jensen.
Why the club can't or don't say this is beyond me..
I would assume they will probably be in charge at Burton in Saturday unless Roland has someone else lined up which doesn't look the case .

I think we should appoint Henrik Larsson, then we’ll know who’s buying the club!!

I wonder if Roland gave him a quick heads up! 😉 A few available managers: Liam Richardson Stephen Schamacher Mark Kennedy Dino Maamria Gareth Ainsworth Brian Barry-Murphy Jimmy Flloyd Hasselbaink Gary Rowett Paul Simpson Ryan Lowe Dean Holden Likelihood is it’ll be none of those!! I think JFH would take the job if offered but even he is probably too pricey for us, with the current situation regarding the sale of the club im thinking maybe we offer a manager the job until the end of the season and tempt them into accepting a wage we can afford with a tidy bonus if they keep us up A difficult position after sacking Hurst you’ve got to replace him with someone you feels better. Cant risk an inexperienced manager and really need someone with experience of a relegation battle. It’s got to be someone the team respect and want to perform for. Out of the ones listed forgetting costs think Lowe or Ainsworth followed by Maamria. Cant get it out of my mind that Lowe left the club after RW said he won’t play for us again after some dressing room shinanagins? |

But Roland has apparently phoned him.
He still won’t play for us again (unfortunately).

If we got Lowe, I think most town fans would be happy. Big ‘if’ though as it’d a massive drop for him.
I really don’t think we should be appointing managers with a consortium in mind as there are so many things that can go wrong before a takeover is finalised. Besides, if the new manager is doing well then there will be no decision to make!

I could well be wrong but I think our next manager will once again be someone I have never heard of, so the Lowes Duffys Ainsworths are all non starters.

Ainsworth is a very attack-minded manager and likes his teams to play aggressively and with a high-pressing style. He has specialised in building teams on a tight budget, recruiting older players overlooked by rival managers who had seen them as "has-beens". |

I know this sort of thing doesn't happen nowadays, but back in the day a player manager was considered as a starting point for any player who wanted to try his hand at coaching,but obviously to try and tempt a PL player or even a good Championship would cost too much, not like years ago ie Rowley, Alan Durban etc.

its a big job for some one to turn around .. mistakes were made in the summer with players departing and the replacements not being of the same standard , if retention of league one status was the target to attract a viable new buyer . it would have been cheaper in the long run to pay a bit extra and retain a couple for there experience of the club and there ability .. some may question there ability but the replacements just haven't been up to it ..

www.shropshirestar.com/sport/2024/11/05/the-latest-on-shrewsburys-search-for-a-head-coach/Shropshire star reporting that we want a short term manager until the end of the season, ideally with League 1 relegation battle experience. Theoretically removes managers like Wild from the conversation, and makes someone like Maamria feel far more likely. I do think it would be an indicator as to takeover conversations if it is a short term deal. Would suggest it could be done by the summer, and the new owners will want a clean slate to work from. Otherwise, I think we'd be looking at an 18 month type deal, with a relegation break clause.

Ryan Lowe would be a great fit,but could be afford him. I'd say yes if the takeover happens as soon as I'm told!

There’s a manager working wonders in the National League who’s got experience of getting us out of relegation messes… |
