Looking at the list of candidates from the bookies...

Quickest turn around would be an unemployed coach.. Gaz O and Carrick would be most likely I guess. No way Martin after the way the last 2 jobs ended. Ange and Rogers won't entertain us and Hasenhuttl could command a better job perhaps Boro.

If we are looking at employed coaches...I assume we will be looking down rather than up...so a league 1 manager Challinor and Skubala are names that keep cropping up but I have no idea whether they are a good fit. Steve Revell is on the list at 25s, anyone know anything about him?

Strange ones on the list. Marek Papszun obviously pulled out of someone's arse but why so short at 16s compared to others? Corberan also another one thats above our station. Robbie Keane? Don't touch anyong just because of the club connection and never go back (yes Farke and Wagner)

I just want a coach that has a playing structure and doesn't leave it up to the attacking players to work it out... I guess O'Neil, Skubala (based only on cursory research) and Carrick in that order.
