I think Warnock will be offered it if he keeps us up, but personally I'd love Karanka back. Again, that will never happen while SG is in charge though. Ah but you really only want Karanka back if he could repeat what he did the first time or better it. These returning manager situations rarely work. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I really hope not Blackwell has never been successful as a manager in the past. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Cormick 11 Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Could it be 3rd time lucky for Nigel Pearson, I believe he has been close to taking charge a couple of times in the past and with his contract up at the end of the season at Watford it may just be his time. Any Takers? 2 Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,403 Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 I'd happily have Pearson. Hopefully he keeps Watford up first, or people will moan. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

mj south 610 Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 I know there's a lot of debate about not going back to old managers bit I'd love Mowbray back, I also reckon he would make a great DoF, not sure if he would want that role though Link to post Share on other sites

Glad to see you agree 🤣 I thought his attacking style of football would definitely appeal, our squad also is arguably better than what he inherited and had to work with the first time round and he also had an eye for young talent.

TheHolgate 675 Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 (edited) I think no matter what Warnock should be given next season Who would you want to get us promotion out of league one? Who would you want to maybe have a surprise play off push on a limited budget in the championship? Warnock for me. Stay up or go down we ain't getting someone better than him. And I couldn't care less about expansive entertaining football. I want to see us win, how many clubs below the PL actually play good football. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Incidentally also the top four in the Championship. It is possible to play good football and win. Link to post Share on other sites
mj south 610 Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Is Warnocks football that bad? I honestly don't really know how his sides play, is it same kind of blueprint as Pulis? Link to post Share on other sites

He does like a big lad up front but also plays wingers who cause mayhem. Some big calls tomorrow. Will be a good insight into what he sees as our strengths. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

AK we were solid TP we were solid... only Robson we played expansive and got rewards in promotion. Mogga Monk Woodgate all tried and failed. Maybe it's just our DNA Maybe Gibson just needs to tempt someone like Juninho or Mendieta to come and coach us? 😉 Seriously though, you need the players to play attractive, expansive football. Under Robson & McLaren we could afford to buy those kind of players. We haven't been able to since. Unless Gibson is prepared to splash that kind of cash again, we are going to have to get used to solid, unspectacular play. Link to post Share on other sites
