Don't think his age should rule out , he maybe exactly what we need right to bring some sort of sanity back to the asylumOriginally posted by surrey_hoop View PostThe guy is knocking 70. With all due respect (to him and us), he is not what we need right now.Last edited by dogsrrs; 06-11-2016, 10:27 AM.

I disagree. Let's not kid ourselves here, we are at the start of a 3-5 year (at the least) rebuilding process. Even if he was to come in and be a (relative) success, we will be a Championship team at best for a while to come. Does he really have the enthuisiasm or inclination to be managing a mid-table Championship team well into his 70's? Personally, I doubt it. Would he keep us up this season? Chnces are, yes he would. The fact is, that would only lead to us delaying the inevitable, and appointing another manager in 1-2 seasons time anyway. I'm not necessarily one of these in the "young and hungry" manager brigade either, but we have to be realistic, and adopt a long term vision for this football club. Roy Hodgson isn't the answer.Originally posted by dogsrrs View PostDon't think his age should rule out , he maybe exactly what we need right to bring one sort of sanity back to the asylumLast edited by surrey_hoop; 06-11-2016, 10:31 AM.

Like I say, appointing a manager just because he's young isn't a strategy I agree with either. It has to be about finding the middle ground between a) someone who's competent and b) someone with the desire to be in charge for a good 3-4 years to steady the ship. Allardyce and Curbishley are both good shouts in that regard.Originally posted by Rentonrose View PostAgree with you but we thought we got a young hungry Manager in JFH but he didn't last a year, maybe big Sam?
