Next manager

[bumba]

He played before you were born.

As a few others are TRYING to tell you - he was NOTHING like the wingers we have.

What will it take for you to understand this?

I know he was nothing like any of the wingers we have because Blake had end product.....none of the current wingers did last season.
So your confirming you NEVER saw Blake play....wow

[Aclaret]

Steve Clarke anyone ?

[boatshed bill]

Not really because Bruun Larsson is an Hoffenheim player who won't be with us next season otherwise different story altogether

So what he did for us doesn't count, then? OK.

[bumba]

So what he did for us doesn't count, then? OK.

It doesn't count when we are discussing what the current wingers we have can do no, if he was still here then yes

[Claretitus]

Steve Clarke anyone ?

Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. NO!!!!!!

[golden days]

Benson 11 goals and 3 assists in the promotion from the championship
Blake 8 goals and 12 assists in the promotion from the championship

I know which I'd pick

You specifically said wingers, I don't know how many times, or how many people need to tell you, Blake was not a winger. Vokes scored goals, ings scored goals, wood scored goals, but I wouldn't pick any of them ahead of Benson AS A WINGER

[boatshed bill]

It doesn't count when we are discussing what the current wingers we have can do no, if he was still here then yes

But Blake's record counts despite the fact that the majority of his goals were scored for other clubs? A bit weird, don't you agree?

Blake did play wide for us, Benson played wide for us.
Are you talking about a traditional winger because Benson never played that for us he was always the wide forward.
Benson and Blake have both played the same role

[bumba]

Nope because they haven't played premier league football for anybody else or we could use their overall premier league records couldn't we

[burnley007]

What a pair of ignorant arses.

Tell you what, why don't you just argue in public.

At least we get to laugh at you both.


Idiots.

[jedi_master]

Have Blake and Benny moved ahead of Parker in the odds?

[boatshed bill]

Well, if you want to see it that way. But I would counter that if you wish to consider a whole career's goalscoring you may have to wait a very long time to make that comparison

[Wokingclaret]

Wouldn't know reading this crap

[bumba]

Your missing the point of the original debate though.
I get what your saying but that's a different debate.

I doubt I'm alone in this
After all, it's meant to be about our next manager

You're missing the point.

[bumba]

You're missing the point.

Aww has mummy let you stay awake because you've no school tomorrow

[The Shire Claret]

Isn’t this supposed to be a thread about the next manager ?

[ClaretAndJew]

Isn’t this supposed to be a thread about the next manager ?

I think it’s about the manager of Burton menswear but Next is decent too.

[Robbie_painter]

Aww has mummy let you stay awake because you've no school tomorrow

Your craic is almost as **** as your footy knowledge

[Vegas Claret]

me wanting to know about the 'next manager'

[123EasyasBFC]

Page 60 of a new manager thread has turned into a benson vs Blake debate. Most threads do end up going off onto different tangents but this is frightening

[The Shire Claret]

Where does Glenn Little come into all of this ?

[bumba]

Your craic is almost as **** as your footy knowledge

Almost.....yet to be proven wrong though

[Shaggy]

Where does Glenn Little come into all of this ?

I’ll raise you a Ted McMinn

[Carlos the Great]

I would give a manager a one year contract .. with a 3 year extension if he gets us up ..if they don’t want that then they can’t be too confident

[beddie]

I can’t see a Manager of good repute agreeing to that. Its so important we make the right appointment so I’ve no problem with Pace & co taking their time. A quick fix is not what we want.

What has that got to do with Blake and Benson?

[Blyclaret]

Blake and Benson. Start a new thread. Read the thread title. This is about our search for a new manager.

[Carlos the Great]

I agree about taking our time to make an appointment ..we don’t want to give someone a 5 year contract .. we were very lucky with Kompany but it could have easily cost us 10m to get him out ..

[Hipper]

Have Blake and Benny moved ahead of Parker in the odds?

Blake is a manager, of Bognor Regis in the Isthmian Premier League (level 7/step3).

[IPAclaret]

60 pages in and its finally happened.

This thread is no longer about who the manager might be

It's about bumba demonstrating what an incredibly indepth knowledge of the game he possess

And for that reason and to get thread back on track...

I'm proposing bumba as next manager , go for it sir

[louieollie]

How about closing down this thread!, as per usual it's turned into a ******* contest 🫣

[Hedontplayforyou]

Any news about the new manager yet?

[Andy_G]

Where does Glenn Little come into all of this ?

Don't you start!

We can do without your bloody help

[Steve-Harpers-perm]

Where does Glenn Little come into all of this ?

And Junior Bent and Louie Donawa.

[morninbob]

6 managers interviewed according to this, including lampard and coberan.
https://www.footballinsider247.com/fran ... e-sources/

[Goalposts]

Corberan would be good in my personal opinion

[bfcjg]

The club have just announced that the next manager will definitely not be Steve Clarke.

[Volvoclaret]

And the crunch question for all six was ; Blake or Benson?

[gandhisflipflop]

When do we go to Lisbon?

Can you interview somebody who is already in a job?

[RVclaret]

Can you interview somebody who is already in a job?

No, so that’s complete bullsh1t.

[randomclaret2]

Can you interview somebody who is already in a job?

Why not ?

[Steve-Harpers-perm]

No, so that’s complete bullsh1t.

Why can’t he attend a job interview?

[PremierLeagueClass]

Can you interview somebody who is already in a job?

Of course you can.

[taio]

No, so that’s complete bullsh1t.

That would be illegal under employment law.

[helmclaret]

Of course someone can go for interviews whilst in a job. You really do read some stuff on here.

[Rumpelstiltskin]

Can you interview somebody who is already in a job?

It happens all the time !

[Murger]

I’d take Corberan over Lampard.
