leon I don't want that thick racist anywhere near my club thank you.

This.

Anton Ferdinand is a Royal. As is Wayne Bridge for that matter.

Plenty of young managers who aren’t racists we could turn to - including some who actually have experience.

If we want a mega ahole as manager why would we chose the lame Terry over the incredible Warnock.

I think Warnock could do better than us if he wanted to, certainly financially. Terry might be all we can afford sadly.

I could be wrong but I'd not heard that NW was a massive racist wnaker. I have heard that he's done quite a bit of managing. Don't get me wrong - it's far from ideal.

If Pauno was to be sacked tomorrow, I wouldn't be totally against Gary Monk to be honest. Experienced at this level, decent reputation similar to ours and has experience of these situations given his time at Sheff Wednesday and Birmingham, doing a good job at the latter ensuring they survived. At least for the short-term, he wouldn't be a bad option.

Didn't he get sacked from one of them for dodgy transfer dealings?

Not sure. I know he was sacked at Birmingham but said that he would resign because of the sale of one of their better players, Jota, to rivals Aston Villa. So maybe things became rife there because of that, not sure it was dodgy though.

Looks like it was Boro https://www.gazettelive.co.uk/sport/foo ... p-16535755
Boro sent formal legal complaints to former boss Garry Monk and his agent based on concerns over transfer dealings, it has been reported.

The Daily Mail says it has seen evidence that Boro claim proves Monk was not protecting the club's business interests - contrary to the terms of his contract.

It's claimed Boro have reservations over fees and negotiations linked to several transfers - and that an internal inquiry was hindered due to Monk's club laptop being wiped before it was returned after his December 2017 sacking.


Last thing we need.

Ah right, I had no idea it was Boro to be honest, probably is worth staying clear then but you can't be too sure with Boro. Maybe not worth the hassle though, if there actually would be any. Seems like an odd occurrence really.

He can’t even cut it in non League with a vast budget and huge crowds at that level. Absolutely not.


Wrong fake news Wrexham are nicely placed in the PO zone and are absolutely within reach of an auto slot.


Or put it another way only just in the play offs and they won’t be if Notts County win their games in hand. So no improvement on last season despite all the money and huge support home and away.


Bet you feel a bit silly now, won their last 4 games and now sat 3rd, gotta put that call in soon.

It’s bare minimum stuff. They have spent far more than any other club in the division, have average home games around 2,000 more than any other team in the division and take far more support to away games than any other team in the division.

Anything other than winning the League and or winning promotion will be failure.

So 3rd in the table is a failure? a great cup run is a failure? and at only his first season in charge a failure? and of course, record crowds points to a failure? We have got to act quickly other clubs are watching. Pray for Parky.

Mr Angry In the event of needing a new Manager, may I suggest someone from left field...........

John Terry.

It seems to me that he has been overlooked for some decent opportunities, and I suspect that he will be extremely motivated to do well when he does get a managers job.



Yessssssssssss please, but Parky first choice.

Breaking News Wrexham win in 4-2 thriller now only 1 point behind 2nd place Chesterfield with a game in hand.

Six points off Stockport. Plenty of work to do but finally they are on a good run. This is the National League btw. What’s his record in the Championship? Oh...

I reckon the club already have someone lined up and are waiting for their contract to expire somewhere at their current club before he comes to us. I predict he's managing in the Austrian league

My gut feel is that the club in "wait and see" mode, with the aim being to appoint someone at the end of the season if they can wait that long. Perhaps they realise the club will need a massive rebuilding job, and want to appoint someone once they know what division the team will be in. Given how long they waited to fire before firing Paunovic I suspect that this was the plan long before they fired him, with the club hoping that he'd manage to limp his way to the end of the season when his contract would expire.

If that's the case then I would expect Ince to keep the job until the end of the season, providing that he can avoid a Paunovic level collapse in form.

Not for me

Damaged goods.

Needs a couple more seasons of success in the lower leagues to shake-off his previous failures.
