Do you know who else we have spoken to?

What I don't get is we still have over a week to go until the end of the season. I mean there is plenty of time to interview other candidates and then make a decision.

Great to have Tino back fit and in the squad 🙂

You honestly think that then?

Surely we have other candidates that we are speaking to. Just can't believe he would be first choice!

Apparently according to a few people on twitter, Martin isn't even in America so who knows? Very Underwhelmed to be honest if he's near the top of our shortlist.

Gerrard would be my top choice.

Ok thanks. Do you think we would go for a big name like Gerrard or Vieira?

Do you know anything on whose on the list?

Agree fully with this. Totally underwhelming. Hoping he's just on a list of candidates that we are speaking to.

What I'm hoping is it says we are speaking to several candidates. We need someone who can command instant respect of the players. Still hoping for Gerrard, Vieira e.t.c.

I'm just hoping that we are looking at all options and not just going for a lower level manager at the first attempt. Surely has to be someone who is a big name who can instantly command the respect of the squad and us the fans. Gerrard, Vieira etc.

I still think Steven Gerrard would be a great fit for us. A big name who would instantly command the respect of the squad and would be hungry for success after his previous job.

Do you know who else is on the list Pilchards?

I do genuinely believe had Ralph still been our manager we would be in a way lot better position than we currently are. Not backing him with a top quality striker last summer was a big issue.

Still really annoyed about the way we were set up to play on Saturday. Sit in and then hit them on the counter, at home! We were second best for a lot of the 1st half. Second half we were way too open and it cost us massively. Just feeling so disappointed now

I would be very happy with Vieira.

An experienced manager it has to be.

Absolutely clear that he's a coach and a not a manager. Once again today baffling tactics displayed. To me it looked like we were set up to counter attack at home, seriously why? Left horribly exposed down either flank once again. Not good enough.

I'm just hoping for a reaction from Monday - COYR

I disagree with you. Hes clearly got pedigree as evidenced by scoring regularly in Europe and international level too.

Why is it?

I like AMN. Despite what some say on here, he was played totally out of position and wasn't helped by that.

Totally baffling that Orsic has not been used atall. Here is a player with pedigree who has played and scored regularly in the Champions league and in the World Cup.
