We were his first managerial role; most of his career was assistant to Mark Hughes. Add in the perception that he appointed himself and people were definitely miffed. But fair play, he did pretty well.
As an aside, how would people feel if he sent an SOS to his old mate Mark who is currently available? It would be a yes from me. Would need new owners to fund it, obviously.
Did have this same thought, depends on how motivated Hughes is to get back in
Basically offer it him the way ince was. Caretaker and if it’s goes well then he has a shot at taking over. Or at least putting himself back in the shop window
Not sure if I’d be keen. Obvs better than Selles but most managers would be. Actually think a low rent Warnock type like Cotteril may be the best bet atm
Mentioned it on another thread but Matt Taylor, recently sacked by Rotherham, might not a bad shout. Good track record and longevity at Exeter, got them out of L2 (which is where we look increasingly likely to be at the moment) and consolidated well in L1. Also did well at Rotherham up until recently with his back very much against the wall financially.
Obviously would need new owners before anything else first, although think he might do better with a club with a higher ceiling than Rotherham (all that assuming the next owners can push us back up to Championship level).
