What about him do you like? He's had 12 clubs in 15 years and has won nothing.

Seen a lot of his team's over the years have you? What is it you like about the journeyman Portuguese manager who you hadn't heard of until an hour ago?

2 years? Where's your ambition, why not 1 year?

Say no to yet another flake with no knowledge of us or the Championship who'll be in for a rude awakening at how tough the Championship is, how shit we are and how much utter mediocrity costs over here.


Getting a minnow to perform in leagues with just three or four good teams has zero relateability to our position.

This would pretty much apply to many foreign managers, wouldn't it? Are you saying we should never hire them, or just not at this particular specific point in time?

Mainly this point in time. But yes, it applies to anyone with little or no management experience or little experience of English football below tier one. Although neither of the Portuguese located suggestions would really inspire my confidence at any point.

Well, that would rule out most managers we've appointed in the past 35 years, you know, Branfoot, McGhee, Quinn & Gooding, Pardew, McDermott etc, etc. In fact, everyone bar Porterfield, Coppell and Adkins.

It wouldn't rule out Rodgers, Coppell, Pardew, McDermott, Clarke, Stam, Gooding, Quinn, McGhee, Bullivant or Clement - because they've all managed in the Championship (or equiv) with us. In fact the only one it would rule out from the last 25 years is Burns. And he's dead anyway.

Not that any of them would be a good and available appointment right now. Except Clement, or very very maybe Pardew.

But at the time we appointed them many didn't have management experience. When we have appointed somebody with championship experience it hasn't gone specifically better than when we didn't.

Your criteria was little or no Championship experience or no English experience below Tier 1

When appointed, Rodgers had half a season, Pardew had none, McDermott had none, Clarke had none, Stam had none, Gooding had none, Quinn had none, McGhee had none, Bullivant had none, Clement had less than half a season. All risky, inexperienced appointments. Burns had a successful CV but no experience in England.
