So not good enough for Cambridge but good enough for us? Not for me - no more managerial appointments for ex-players just because they are the ‘right sort’. We need to be run like a proper business and hire the best possible candidates and not make decisions based on sentiment. The ex-player approach clearly isn’t working at the moment.Comment

New owner and the face didn't fit. I actually don't think he was doing too bad a job there with the resources he had at his disposal.

Of course, I don't actually think he's a good enough manager at this stage of his career for a club like us. But I don't think we've actually got the budget at the moment to attract a manager that is good enough for us, hence we're stuck with Ian Holloway.
On the whole I agree with you about 'jobs for the boys'. We do way too much of that as a club. 3 ex-players that I wouldn't be against seeing back at the club at some stage however are Gareth Ainsworth, Client Hill and Shaun Derry. I think all 3 have got a good head on their shoulders, are honest as the day is long, and will go on to have decent coaching/management careers.Comment

Amen. Leave our heroes out of the selection process unless.....they have proven managerial experience and recent levels of relative success. The current obsession of giving any role at the club to an ex player is just lazy and unprofessional. Look at the result.....Comment
