Who do we want as our new Manager
- Thread starter tonycrowuk

I think we got into their faces, closed them down and put them off kilter. Generally over the season Hull have been good.
LR really does present an interesting recruitment opportunity. What makes it such a good fit is that I genuinely think we are the right club for him - at least in terms of the current available jobs.
I don't think Sunderland will be an issue - I cant see how they could 'sell' Hull's sacked manager to their fans. Even taking into account recent league standings etc.
I'd be more worried about Birmingham with their US investment etc but ultimately being in the Championship not trying to get back into it should make us more attractive.
Everyone else in between us and Hull have either recently appointed or are in pretty secure situations with Managers except maybe Preston and I still think we are a more interesting long term proposition than them...
Rosenior will already understand the project opportunity that we present.
Strange as it sounds we are not appointing a Manager to get us promoted we are appointing someone who can gradually make us and our players better over time. He wont get that evolution opportunity at many (if any) other clubs.
The other advantage in our favour is that if he were to hedge his bets have the summer off and wait for the first round of managerial sackings in say September you are already working with someone else's signings till January and coming in with a long gap to a window isn't easy.
In many ways us appointing right now is massively to our advantage. The incoming manager has complete free reign on signings and retention as well as a full pre season to work with to get their message across.
Then lastly, what a game last weekend to showcase how good Argyle on and off the field can actually be...
Funny old game isn't it and lets all not forget to thank Super Joe for allowing us to be even having this discussion regarding a Championship Manager of the Year contender.

Hang on a minute. Weren't you a fan of Steve tax-man Evans and i've heard you also took a liking to Karl Robinson in recent weeks!??
Yet Ainsworth's football is not up to your standard?
Deary deary me...
We nearly went down... and it would have been mostly down to lack of attacking options off the bench, the opposite to the options we had in league 1 which is a tier considerably lower in standards.
So how on earth can we afford Liam Rosenior as our new head coach? If we couldn't even bring in a third striker in the last 12 months? Baffling. Rosenior is a top chap, his father you should all know from back in the day.... BUT i'd be amazed if we match his amibitions going forward...
If we can't get Pearson or a young assistant coach in that ticks the boxes Get a really influential top bloke in like Gareth Ainsworth. Really loyal and solid with the players (forget qpr they are a bunch of prima donnas) has always batted above in terms of squad size and budgets and whilst the urban myth about dire football is floating about due to our inability to score first against them in about 6 fixtures, gareth used to love high scoring matches... proof in the past.... However sadly the abuse and negativity towards him by most of you football gurus out there will put him off.
Well done. I expect a high end alternative... pressure on all of you to deliver....

On what basis? Totally bizarre. Do you know his style of football? I know you hate the Ainsworth's of this world? Presumably Naismith is gung ho fantastic brazil? In the scottish leagues!!
Robinson is a car salesman.... in the mould of Lowe and Schuey but a lot worse.... come on Cobi you can do better...
Ainsworth is an exceptional man manager... failed at QPR because those players are idiots. Prima donnas. But our lot would have loved him. He was outstanding at Wycombe but unfortunately your ilk would have put him off... so we have to cross him out because of the brains of pasoti. A round of applause....

We failed to bring a striker in because we had all our eggs in one basket in the Summer with Middlesbrough and Coburn then the club in January didn’t feel like we needed another striker
Exactly. Wow. What a huge risk, especially in January to pull it off! We can't do it 2 seasons running though. I actually think it's one of the football league's strangest moments. Had we gone down most statitionists would have looked at our fire power / forward options and thought "why did they rely on just two strikers all season...?" Incredible stuff.
Head coach will never have full reigns. The idea of DOF is that they decide targets to meet clubs philosophy so that this never changes and when head coach leaves we are not left with loads of players signed by him to match his philosophy, we are left with players who are part of clubs philosophy.
If that makes sense
