I prefer him over some of the names mentioned but he really isn't one of my top choices, surely the club have the sense to wait until all of the leagues are finished when the list of potential candidates will increase!

Gets people betting on another name based on people thinking bookies know something.

Big Johnny Eustace will crush them all !

I more than agree. We need someone with Championship experience, proven at this level. Now isn't the time to make a silly decision based on the romance of past players.
Perhaps one for the future, just not for now !

Let’s be having the doom merchants as a another name crops up as manager

Championship experience like Rowett or Lampard had ?

Personally think that first and foremost if the manager can gel a team, communicate a way of playing and is allowed to strengthen with a decent proportion of cash from sales then experience in this league is simply an added bonus.

There are exceptions to the rule but I just don't think we can afford another JFH gamble which I thought was a great appointment at the time!

THAT is definitely true. A proper fraud of a manager who would never have been considered if Clough and then Rowett hadn't set Burton up so well.

Exes tend not to work out in football, we should know that better than anyone. We need a manager whose championship win % is pretty decent with an average squad. Carvalhal is way ahead on that score, which means he wont get it.

But dont worry about the markets - no money in them. A tenner on any of the contenders sends em odds on everywhere in minutes. Unfortunately that doesn't preclude another poor decision....

Isn't that the job of the DOF to use his football knowledge to advise the non footballing board on football deciisions?

The bookies seem to make different people favourite every few days. I hope it’s not Ainsworth. Nice guy but do we really want a Wycombe manager who plays poor football to be in charge of the young talent we have?? Please god ... no

[QPRDave]

Be one of the biggest mistakes of his career.

You'd think that was the role. However, since 2015, I am not convinced that Ferdinand has any real knowledge that is useful to the Board.

He is not even getting good results with Wycombe either.
i would prefer to remember Ainsworth as a good QPR player rather than a failed manager.
