Exactly, anyone who takes the job now needs to be willing to manage in the championship next season as that is where we will be for this reason the Potters and Moyes of this world won't be coming we would have needed a reasonable shot at survivable to stand any hope of attract that type of manager. Rohl will be managing in the Championship next season if he joins us or not so he has to look at next season and which club gives him the best opportunity to be successful and step up to the next level.

Eddie Howe was a mediocre mid table championship manager not long ago and the fan base would cream themselves if we appointed him today! Appointing overseas managers is no guarantee of success it’s easy to cherry pick both ways. I loved watching Saints under Gordon Strachan and he was a failed premier league manager coaching in the championship when we signed him! The trouble is nothing in football ball is guaranteed, I would be happy with either if the current championship manager contenders because they are successful and favour a style of football I like. Equally I would be happy with a decent overseas appointment etc and then it will just been down to luck as is the case with all managerial appointments/transfers etc at our level. Sadly we are not rich/big enough to attract anything close to guaranteed success.

I think the point being made is at the point Potter became a premier league manager he hadn’t achieved a great deal in the championship but it worked out! Not all managers in the championship is Jones or Martin!

I live in Sheffield and Wednesday fans absolutely love both him and Rohl and will be gutted to see either leave in January. They rate Charles one of the best players they’ve seen at the club in donkeys years. I’d take Rohl simply because he shows a bit of passion and knows how to get good results from a below average group, Wednesday looked as good as relegated when he took over last season but he turned them round and and then this year has them well up the table and I would say punching above their weight given spend.

I’ll be happy if the team look fitter, harder to beat and we go forward with intent. I fully accept we are relegated but if Sheffield united can go down in an utter shambles and now stand top of the league then so can we!

Why? He could be Wednesday manager for the next 5 seasons and achieve nothing more than top half finishes the club is a mess off the pitch. If he joins us this time next season he could be top off the championship about to take us back up with a shot and managing a team he has built in the biggest league in the world. Saints are an opportunity for an aspiring manager Wednesday are not going to get him to that level anytime soon.

A great season for Rohl at Wednesday would be a top half finish the club is an absolute mess off the pitch. If he joins saints he basically has half a season to get the team playing his way and then a great chance of bouncing straight back with one of the richest teams in the league. If he’s ambitious he jumps ship.

Who ever is taking training tomorrow morning has a better chance of keeping us up even if it’s the tea lady and groundsman.

Nathan Jones dusting off his CV? Mark Hughes is available? serious idea I’d take Danny Rohl from Wednesday, now’s how to organise a side and get them fighting.

No mention of course of stripping the hair pulling twat of the captaincy, he shouldn’t play again for a very long time let alone wear the armband he let himself and the team down massively this evening the utter cock.

He didn’t seem to get quite so lambasted in the press every week, oh and he’s Vincent Company not some knob head who played for Norwich!

Because they can’t face the tedium of passing the ball backwards and sideways for another half hour?

He’s never going to be prolific at the highest level had a good start in Italy and now it’s gone quite much like when he played for us. He is a 100% player but doesn’t have the consistency if he did he would be very very good.

He might have been before all the injuries and basically a two year break from the game. His chances of making a successful comeback must be tiny now very few players make it back to the top consistently after so long out.

Look on the bright side we are winning the possessions stats now!

Not even winning the possession stats RM will have to get the hair dryer out 😂

Totally agree it seems the better the academy players do the less likely there are to get more game time under him!

I’d swap managers with Wednesday in a heart beat!

Maybe we should recall him and ask him to smuggle the manager out! He can’t possibly be a downgrade on Russ and knows how to get a tune out of one of our players already! I have two Wednesday season ticket holders in the house this week doing some work and they both think he’s the best player at the club and can’t believe we loaned him out!

Because they got lucky, we managed it for a while in the Adkins, Poch era eventually Brighton will get one wrong.

Two reasons we don't shoot: 1) we would risk loosing the ball and messing up our possession statistics 2) When we have the ball we are generally passing it about so far from the opposition goal that our player can't actually kick it that far!

Their possession stats are so weak though we'd easily beat them on the only stat that matters, we even stuck 63% on them in their own backyard!

I’m looking forward to Yan’s huge trophy for most touches in history by a centre back, hope he stays fit it is such a big deal!

Exactly, we are currently well on course to break Derby's record which frankly is so low I thought it would never be beaten the idea of us going down this limply and him keeping his job is utterly untenable.

We wold be better off playing Bolton style hoof ball to tall Paul, I can barely think of any tactic that would be less effective than never attacking the opponents half let alone box!
