Michael Appleton - in talks

[Shepherds Mush]

Load of rubbish & if that’s the case we might as well not employ anyone that’s on that list, condemning a bloke who’s allegedly had a chat that’s all, you lot are something else.

Good

Would rather see John Eustace have a go than most of those managers.

Cotterill has got a good record with young players so at least thats something

Appletons head looks so skull like Bob gedolf thinking of doing a live aid record for him

best quote about him i read on here was that he looks like an extra from schindlers list. can't remember who said it, maybe you i'm guessing!

i wouldn't be oppossed to appleton though although i think he could be risky. he's highly rated and did a good job at oxford but the other clubs he's managed have all been clubs with massive problems (similar to ours) and he did poorly in sorting them out. he did start managing at a very young age though so maybe he's picked up a trick or two and has become more experienced from his time at poorly run clubs. but he also might still be crap, thats why it could be risky.

i don't think they'd be any middle ground with appleton in terms of how well he does, it'd either be good or terrible. still, i'd take him over sherwood, davies and cotteril any day of the week

Steve Kean is available.

WTF: I wat him, I don't want him.
what reputable manager wants to come to us anyway.

I don't see a long list of good managers applying for the job.

Get real people and bring yourselves down a peg or two.

If we appoint Appleton then we are conceding the fight to stay in the Championship.

Shocking win percentages and for people who quote him being a good coach, then that does not make him a good manager. We need a good manager who is a top coach as well.! Gutted to see him being mentioned as he is most definitely NOT the answer for us!

Let's hope the "in talks" was a quick phone call by Les .....that he dialled by mistake !! Maybe he was trying to call a Michelle

In talks does not mean he has had an interview so I'll take one for the team (literally) and go to church on Sunday to pray that this is a big misunderstanding !! Let's hope he has put a bet on himself to pull him into the odds !!

Not good enough for us , or what we need at the moment not amazing win percentages at all....

Portsmouth - 25.5 %
Blackpool - 16.7%
Blackburn - 26.7
Oxford - 45.1 %

Better at Oxford but they were League one/two and I'm sure I remember reading he spent a fortune (for them) and left the club with financial problems when he departed.

May as well give up now if he is the best we can get.....
