Final eight games of last season as interim manager.
Need someone with more experience than that. It would be basically appointing another Neil Cox.
Not for me!

Definitely not!!
This appointment is massive for PS… he HAS TO GET IT RIGHT!!!
An unpopular appointment that fans don’t believe in will finish off home attendance.
This is his chance to galvanise a fan base which has totally switched off from SUFC.
Probably the most important decision Swann has had to make in all his years in charge!!!

I’d put that option down in the “cheap route” column.

Nige will now be about 56.
It is more than possible (presumably having a decent stash) he may be ready to retire. (I know I would under those circumstances.)
It is possible that he might no longer care about footie future and reputation and may be prepared to manage til May to rescue the club which gave him his start.In any other circumstances, it is very hard to see him returning unless the chairman decides to offer megabucks – which may, of course, also be possibility Innit?

Flynn or Hill for me.
Would strongly guess Hill really is in the lead.
Either would be an intelligent option. But what does that mean?We have to assume that there will have to be provision for incomings by one means or another.

If Swann appoints this Jimmy Ball with his only experience coming from being the Vegans under 18’s manager, he’s pretty much signed our death warrant.
Pleased to see Hill still as the favourite, although not sure if this is just money going on him rather anything substantial.
Still torn with the potential of Adkins being appointed; heart says yes, Head says no. Really Don’t want his legacy tarnishing and it’s a totally different setup to the one he inherited in 2006

Looks like decent money come in for Hill. 1/10 favourite now!

Was always Hill and Adkins for me. What is good about Hill is the fact he’s had nothing really to work with before at Rochdale and always kept them competitive for the most part.
I will say though his teams play percentage hoof ball football, effective but it’s not good on the eye. The position we’re in though, I’d take it.
I always remember he had Calvin Andrew as a big n nasty and played old stoke style hoof ball…very direct and just went for the knock downs.
I wouldn’t call Loft a big and nasty, we haven’t got a genuine big and nasty battering ram at the club.

It’s all pretty much academic, though, isn’t it?
Players now are so much more entitled. They seem to do as they please, not following the manager’s instructions.
Then, when sonething upsets them, they sulk and stop trying. There’s more than one manager lost his job because the players played to “get rid”. The HEIGHT of dishonesty, but there you go.Face it guys, we could resurrect Cloughy, Alf Ramsey and Matt Busby and they still couldnt keep this lot up.
Down by Christmas.We need to start updating our satnavs for non-league destinations.

Spot on alcazar whoever comes in should bring some six inch nails to hammer up through that treatment table, make it less comfortable

The next manager needs to move on Bunn and Hallam. Hallam’s forever breaking down and never seems to fit in despite being talented and Bunn is a sick note through and through.
That will free up the treatment table somewhat.

If it was BPG it was probably Benny Hill.

If Hill came it wouldn’t surprise me to see Calvin Andrew who is currently clubless arrive very soon after…

If Scunny do OK in the next 2 matches, don’t rule out an extention of McMahon in charge, it has happened a few previous times by Mr Swann.
Just for the record, although being my first season of not attending games for 71 years, I still never received any contact from the club on why I had not renewed my season ticket of 13 years. And again for the record I think that I deserve my say, so one reason was that Cox was still in charge, the second reason being that the attacking football they were to play never got off the ground and football has been boring defensive rubbish for three seasons, and I could not see any reason for it to change, so no need for any contact form, my job is done !!!!!
If things get better and a bit of enjoyment can be seen by attending, I shall be back, UTI.

I doubt it. Swann admittedly has talked a lot of rubbish but he was pretty steadfast against giving McMahon the job when asked.
The old Swannster said he’ll know more this weekend in regards to the manager, which means he’ll has probably already picked some from whoever has applied and has probably interviewed some already.
I suspect we’ll have one in this time next week. I know he’s away with the fairies at times but even he knows we need somebody in sharpish.
I just hope to god it’s not a no mark who comes in.
Could you imagine if Adkins and Crosby were appointed ?
I have a hunch it will be Keith Hill though, if anybody will turn this around it will take somebody of that ilk who’s done similar before.
Lancsiron, Calvin Andrew is at Barrow isn’t he ?
If it is Hill who does arrive then expect a big and nasty battering ram upfront and umpteen crossed swung in, he did it at Rochdale.
I remember them being awful to play against. They were never a true footballing side but they were always rough as shite, very hard working and well organized.
All 3 traits we desperately need.
A lot of deadwood needs trimming first from the playing squad…
Bunn “always injured”
Hallam “same as Bunn”
O’Neil “utter crap”
Hackney will probably go back as well come January “is he better than Perry, Beestin, Pugh ?”
I’d send wood back as well and get that cut short “rather have Gallimore in the mix”A big n nasty striker
Left winger
experienced DCM player “who’s actually mobile”
Right wingerThat’s another thing about Hill, he’s a bit of a wheeler and dealer as well..quite astute in transfer market. Hill had to be he worked on a shoestring budget for I don’t know how long at Rochdale.
