Knutsen looks the most obvious “fit” with us/Webber type appointment (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 8, 10:42:34
- Big Sam, forward thinking and experienced (n/m) (NCFC) - thirsty work, Nov 8, 10:51:20
  - Yep always thinking forward to his next meal and what kind of pint he is going to hav. (n/m) (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Nov 8, 10:58:38
    - Fair enough, I'd say (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Nov 8, 11:00:17

  - Well he's managing in the top division with lots of young players and just led his team to (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 8, 11:04:15
    - managing a club with a ground with capacity of under 6,000 (NCFC) - paulg, Nov 8, 11:08:11
    - He arguably has more experience than Farke did when he joined us. (n/m) (NCFC) - AstroCanary, Nov 8, 11:07:37
      - Maybe, but when Farke was appointed (NCFC) - paulg, Nov 8, 11:11:01
      - But we need to look where Farke finished and take the next step, which has to be top level (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Nov 8, 11:09:31
  - Who do you think would be a step up from Farke, Paul? (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 8, 10:52:55
    - I don't know enough to give a list of names (NCFC) - paulg, Nov 8, 10:59:27
      - I don't think we're in for Knutsen (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 8, 11:07:10
      - Snail’s pace? Hasn’t got the foggiest what the most viewed league in the world is like? (NCFC) - APB, Nov 8, 11:06:55
        
        why? (NCFC) - paulg, Nov 8, 11:12:58
        
        Tell that to Roma (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 8, 11:19:16
        
        Coming from a smaller league can work (NCFC) - jamesward, Nov 8, 11:22:02
        
        Exactly - someone that's coached their way through (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 8, 11:25:36
      - Anyone who can manage more than 0.45 points per game in the Prem is a start. (n/m) (NCFC) - AstroCanary, Nov 8, 11:00:17
        
        & who would that be? (NCFC) - paulg, Nov 8, 11:01:35
        
        Whoever it is should feel a bit exciting and a bit of a risk, I think (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 8, 11:16:03
        
        I think the latter is an unnecessary qualification (NCFC) - CWC, Nov 8, 11:06:54
        
        But the whole project is about survving in the PL now...we have taken steps forward (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Nov 8, 11:17:20
        
        People hadn't been enjoying the ride this season, though. (NCFC) - AstroCanary, Nov 8, 11:36:21
        
        Yes individual games and defeats are not enjoyable but there was the underlying sense (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Nov 8, 11:42:43
        
        The direction isn't changing, that will still be the plan (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 8, 11:44:11
        
        yes, that would also make sense (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Nov 8, 11:13:29
        
        I know I'm being flippant, but I do get frustrated with any implication that it is going (NCFC) - AstroCanary, Nov 8, 11:06:50
  - Can you stop hating on potential new managers please (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 8, 10:50:26
    - just pointing out facts (NCFC) - paulg, Nov 8, 10:53:58
    - VMT (n/m) (NCFC) - thirsty work, Nov 8, 10:52:02
  - He’s gone, get over it (n/m) (NCFC) - thirsty work, Nov 8, 10:50:05
- The fact they are discussing back room teams etc surely indicates … (NCFC) - loz, Nov 8, 10:45:45
  - Lampard and Jody Morris (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 8, 10:48:27
    - With John Terry defensive coach (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 8, 10:49:51
    - 🤮 (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Nov 8, 10:49:46
  - VMT (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 8, 10:46:10
- Isn't he going to struggle to get a work permit? (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 8, 10:44:28
  - So although he doesn't automatically qualify there is an "exceptions panel" (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 8, 11:00:11
    - Indeed - just doesn't seem to fit the bill based on our situation (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 8, 11:02:55
      - Strange that the norweigan league has been left out of the "Top Leagues" definition (NCFC) - Jim, Nov 8, 11:17:49
        
        or not strange at all, because it's the norweigian top division. (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Nov 8, 11:46:40
        
        If there is another club involved, it will also be difficult to keep quiet (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 8, 11:20:26
