If no-one has the balls to tell the story, perhaps an idea of why this so called secret has been shared with so many, but not with the rest of us....oh and when might be imcluded! Possibly, of course this is a massive wind up....

It's because Martin O Neil is such a shrinking violet, that if he happens to be a member of this forum and sees his name, he call the whole thing off.

Can't believe people would be disappointed with Leonardo ffs. Young, intelligent, many many contacts and he'd only come if he really wanted to. Won the world cup, played with world class players, under world class managers and knows the game inside out. But not enough for english div 3??

 

I don't believe for a second he'd come here, just amazed people would be upset about it!

 

Don't worry, there are also people questioning if O'Neill is good enough for us.

Great, great thread.

 

I'm just pleased I'm one of the people that knows because it must be really frustrating for the rest of you.

 

Isn't it past your bedtime?

I have seen his name mentioned on here, is he in the frame then? or just wild speculation.

His name has been floating about, apparently he has connections to Cortese. but then so does every italian based manager by the sounds of it!

apparently the current scunphorpe GK coach was at the game on Saturday (kevin pressman)

 

I still don't think anythings been decided. It's a big decision for Cortese and he needs to make sure he gets this bang on.

I also find it odd that apparently Howe is good enough for S****horpe as a replacement for Adkins if he comes (according to their forums), but collectively people on here aren't sure about him.

 

Personally, he'd be a cracking appointment imo.

I think Chris Hutchings would be a good candidate. Born in Winchester, likeable, brought success to every club he's been with and a true gentleman. Plus he's available.

When I say available, I mean we could easily get him from Walsall.

 

It's either him or Gilberto Silva in some sort of player-manager facility for me.

He was the physio at scunny, then was promoted to manager - similar to Les Reed at Tranmere.

 

and they do play good football, on the ground, quick and fast. Some people seem to think scunny play hoofball, but they couldn't be further away from the truth.

they play decent stuff IMO. I remember the match at their place when Pearson took over and they played us off the park. Two promotions from this league in three years is impressive. Slightly different sense of expacation from the two sets of fans, but he knows how to win games. Yep he was their physio.

Tim Flowers was at St Marys on Sat - Merrington said as much on commentary...

 

May find he was commentating for BBC or other radio ...

 

Peter Reid was there because Plymouth play Rochdale next...

 

 

Some other Managers/coaches were there just having a larf at our expense........baaaastarddds.

To be fair Nick, the whole takover was a wind up!!!!!

 

rumour on footballagent 46 on twitter- it is my understanding NC will go young, English and with success on the CV already.

 

Who is football agent 46 though?

are we talking about Paul Jewell's long term assistant who when thrust into the managerial position after Jewell leaves failed every time? Hmmmmm.

southampton fc to appoint eric cantona as manager tommorow and for southampton to sign michail antonio on loan and either luke moore or michael kighlt on loan.

 

Yeh right... Eric Cantona obviously keeping an eye on lower english league signings.

No way it can be EC - he should have been struck off for what he did and should never be able to grace the football stage again. Similar to that ***t Brian Clough who punched a fan then went on the tele and allowed the fan to give him a kiss.

 

Phew - that feels better now.

 

PS It's Keane

Eric Cantona would be a huge name....

 

 

dont think he would last long though..too moody and would leave IMO

 

Can you imagine it, eric flying off the touchline and landing a two footed lunge on the 4th official!

'young, english and with success on the CV already'

 

That narrows it down I guess. The people who fit into that mould are:

 

Howe

Mowbray (at 45 he is still comparatively young for a manager)

Grayson

Hill

Clarke

Pearson

Tilson

Brown

Adkins

 

Out of those I reckon we can rule out Pearson and Grayson as not wanting the job. Brown most certainly does want it, but has been a little too vocal about it, suggesting he has not had an interview and is trying to get one! There have been enough rumours to suggest that Howe has indeed been spoken to, and I can't believe that Mowbray would slip under the radar.

 

My money would be on Mowbray or Howe, and I'd be delighted with either. Mowbray would get us playing the right way and what Howe has done at Bournemouth is one of the greatest managerial achievements of my lifetime, IMHO.

 

Have I missed anyone?

Adkins is younger than Mobrey
