If Allardyce is for real and dropping out of the game just maybe we keep Sammy Lee. If we do I am not so worried who we have as manager. But NOT Ranieiri.

Jokanovic or Silva look good to me.

Jokanovic - and bring Cairney with him.

Good shout, forgot about him - we should definitely try for him.

I'm interested to know why so many fans want silva. He was relegated this season. Didn't achieve any wins on the road. He lost at home to Sunderland and in his last 2 games conceded 11 goals. I personally think we need more of a denfensive coach that can put a structure into place to work from. This is what these players respond to. We need a tactian rather than a maverick. Raneri would be a disaster. Personally think Coleman will probably get the job this time.

Please no Palace connection. I really fear for our future under Roy or Cookie.

Lets wait and see

Some people are like Slinkies … not really good for anything, but you can’t help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs.

Kenny Jacketts out of a job..

I think we have to go with a foreign manager and this could be a good suggestion, or a "good track record" French speaking manager again such as Lucien Favre, simply because we have so many French speaking players. There has been no mention of the status of Sammie Lee so I hope he will give continuity of a kind, although he would be most definitely a wild card as he has little experience in transfer windows.
Deja vu. I am tearing what little hair is left on my head out, here in the outer reaches.

The power of the Executive to cast a man into prison without formulating any charge known to the law, and particularly to deny him the judgment of his peers, is in the highest degree odious and is the foundation of all totalitarian government whether Nazi or Communist.

This is the problem now, no decent managers out of work and I can't see us nicking one from the teams that will be around us like dyce,howe,clement.

If we did,Could we be cheeky enough to nick another Newcastle manager?? Benitez would be a great manager, maybe even Bilic if west ham look to off load?

I really wouldn't want raineri, couldn't handle listening to him, I find it a real struggle to understand him.
No to hodgson,coleman or mclaren...

Just when I thought that I was out...........they pull me back in

Was gonna ask if anyone offered him up yet. Can't see it but at least it's outside the box and not same old stale thinking like Coleman/Moyes/Hodgson etc

Who let the doug out, who, WHO WHO?

This was once a quality forum....
