[Saxoman]

3 names so far.. No one can guess venkys.

Sherwood Atkins Dowie - SAD!

That is exactly what Rovers fans will be if they appoint any of them!

[Clarets4me]

Sounds like a firm of dodgy Solicitors....

[Saxoman]

aDkins sorry..

[cricketfieldclarets]

Shatkins

[Saxoman]

He's a scouser, so its a good start.

[FCBurnley]

Nobody Cares. SAXO OUT

Not much of a conversationalist are you?

[Goobs]

Please let it be Dowie. That would be hilarious.

[Saxoman]

Please let it be Dowie. That would be hilarious.

Rumoured to have been in and around the area and immediately ready to take the reins against Burton.

He's better than coyle, that's all I know.

[Goobs]

Debatable really. He has been looking for another shot at management for ages after his last couple of failed attempts and it has been a while since anyone was stupid enough to let him take the helm.

Management requires a large amount of good luck, and we all know that Dowie has nothing but bad looks.

[gogogadgetlegs]

Hope you get that fat bloke from Leeds as manager whose name I cant remember but would suit you perfectly.

I Assume you mean Steve Evans? I hope not as he isn't an awful manager despite seemingly being not a nice person. I want someone who will continue / improve on what Coyle had started.

[Rowls]

Please Tim Sherwood. I'd even be willing to see him keep them up this season just so he's in charge of getting them fit over the summer. They'd be a surefire bet to finish rock bottom the following year.

Either way, it's all just sooooo funny.

[gogogadgetlegs]

I did mean Steve Evans (thank you) and yes he is an awful manager. Sherwood would be too good for them. Evans and chicken wings.

He spent the evening on Sky's soccer special. He was part of the conversation with and about Cotterill wanting the job. He wasn't too complimentary about Venkys whereas Cotterill didn't offer a view on that for some reason.

[Saxoman]

Although I don't have a problem managerial ability wise with cotterill, as I did with coyle, I think as another ex Burnley manager, he'd be on a loser with rovers fans from the start.

[grapidianclaret]

F**k me. Coyle, Cotterill? You will be digging John Bond up next.

[Vegas Claret]

Having seen Sherwoods managerial record, I hope to god he gets it, you''ll be league 2 sooner rather than later Saxo

[TheFamilyCat]

My money's on Bob Bradley...

[Garnerssoap]

Please let it be tactics Tim.
Cotterball would keep them up

[Garnerssoap]

David dunn would be lovely though

[Chobulous]

David dunn would be lovely though

That's a sentence I thought I would never see written down

[Jackal_bfc]

Has Judan Ali not thrown his hat into the ring yet...???

[gavster]

Mark Warburton. that's all

[Burnleyareback2]

Apparently the Sutton reserve goal keeper is free...

[joey13]

Stock Aitken Waterman, might be a better option.

[Sidney1st]

Iain Dowie - 'Football Management Consultant'

[HiroshimaClaret]

Adkins is a good shout but...step forward Remi Garde!!!!

[KRBFC]

There is some half decent names on the list unfortunately for us, the good news is that Rowett has ruled himself out.
I would fancy Adkins, Warburton, Rowett, Evans and Sherwood to keep them up. Please be David Dunn

[Six fingers]

Kean return best bet

[nil_desperandum]

I did mean Steve Evans (thank you) and yes he is an awful manager..

He may be an awful manager and a fairly loathsome chap, but his record as a manager is very good in terms of games won and / or not lost. I believe he has won 8 promotions in his time as a manager.(Admittedly he is not proven at Championship level).
He also went up in my estimation after his post-match interview at the Turf last season.

[RingoMcCartney]

My money's on Bob Bradley...

Like spare parts for a storm damaged pawn brokers sign!

[RocketLawnChair]

Mike Phelan as agreed to meet the Rovers Chief Exec to discuss the position.

[FactualFrank]

Isn't he from Nelson?

That'll be Agent Phelan then if he gets it. To carry on the good work left to him.

[Steve1956]

Dowie? that ugly bugger would not look out of place with the Shadsworth lot,please let it be him.

[bob-the-scutter]

Rumoured to have been in and around the area and immediately ready to take the reins against Burton.

He's better than coyle, that's all I know.

Ha ha ha....that`s like saying Syphilis is better than Herpes!

[Guller Bull]

Saxo - do it. Apply!

Go on just for the crack. You and Venkys would make sweet moozak.

Actually where is rejected - has he applied yet?

[FactualFrank]

My money's on Bob Bradley...

He's now in the running...
