Half Horse If money was no object and as the owner you had a five year plan to return to the Premier League, who would you try to recruit as your manager? Bearing in mind the likes of Klopp and Guardiola are unlikely to be interested in coming to the Thames Valley.

Mr Optimist Surprised there has not been more general interest in Paul Warne from other clubs in the last couple of years.

He was actually my second choice behind Rowett initially as I believe he would do better with more resource.

Money no object and your choice is Gary Rowett?! No wonder this club has gone to the dogs.

Dirk GentlyPATRIQT Steve Coppell - DOF
Not a chance. What he loves is coaching players directly and working out the tactics to win each game. What he hates is managing the finances, talking to agents and dealing with transfers etc.
As a DoF it'd be all of what he hates and none of what he loves.

He moved into some DoF roles since finishing management though from what I recall.

Yes, DoF at both Crawley and Portsmouth.
‘Then there was Steve Coppell, appointed as Pompey’s director of football after arriving with Barker. He was around the place, but I never managed to figure out his role.
‘Being a former Palace player, I was well aware of Coppell’s history and the high regard their supporters held him in.
‘With his wealth of experience as an ex-manager, you could see why his appointment appealed to the board in their attempts to get this historic club back on the right track.
‘However, he was sometimes there, sometimes not, then he was gone. From memory, he was at the training ground once. A shadow, but not there very long.
‘Coppell was like a guest coming in – “Hey, how are you doing?”, then he was off. It was a case of ‘Nice to see you, bye, thank you’. He left no impression here.
‘He needed to help the manager, but never interacted with the squad. When you give advice you must know the players, surely he had to be much more involved and show his face every now and again? For me, he was a guest.
