Next manager

[NottsClaret]

The sooner this Lampard rumour dies, the happier I’ll be. Get this wrong and another spell in the wilderness awaits. Although to be fair, I’ll probably enjoy it anyway.

And therein lies the problem. Are we in a position to be able to prioritise style over the need to get promoted due to our financial issues?

[Vegas Claret]

One thing to consider is as of tomorrow we may be competing with Leeds United for a new manager.

And Man United

We are competing with the likes of Bayern Munich now, not rubbish like Leeds.

Still hoping for the special one

[Pearcey]

Leeds will have to tighten their belts next season. Can’t believe that they would sack Farke after getting that many points!

[COBBLE]

I am not sure how anyone can assess Lampard against other candidates. He did well at Derby, very well in his first season at Chelsea. At Everton it needed the bouncers in. If Frank joins the project I would welcome him and I suspect so would most of the players.

[rob63]

If I say Moyes regularly, perhaps it will happen.

Isn't that how you summon the devil?

And Leicester and Ipswich and Brentford.

[123EasyasBFC]

Sky bet have opened markets for Man City next manager but haven’t bothered for Burnley and Sunderland

[theduke]

So what opportunities do you see for Moyes in the PL at present?
Doubt he'll want to move abroad at this stage of his career.
He has a lot of connections (+ a house) up here.
He would inherit one of the strongest (if not the strongest) squads in the Championship, and a two year contract for him with a bonus if he takes us up and keeps us up would surely be almost perfect for him??

Leicester look like they'll need a manager.
Brighton still need one.
Ipswich might need one.

Then he can wait it out until someone is sacked early / mid season

[It Is What It Is]

I find it incredible that BFC has not made some sort of statement regarding the clubs managerial position.
They must know the fans need to be updated.
Don't want rumours, deal not yet done but they still have VKs speech on their website talking about his plans with us for next season.
You get better updates from the media.

Most people on the thread below are of the clear view that it would be wrong for the club to make a statement until Kompany’s move has been officially completed:

They’d look a bit silly making a statement and then it doesn’t happen.

It doesn't have to be all or nothing though. Some indication of what's actually happening would probably suffice for some people. You don't have to leave people completely in the dark you can briefly tell people where you are.

Of course the club could do that. But in my view, and the view of others, it wouldn't be the right thing to do until the deal has been completed. I don't think people are in the dark - it's clear what's happening and the club will surely issue a statement in due course when the time is right.

[warksclaret]

Its outside our control now, Bayern need to finalise clauses with VK. Gives our Board time to do some behind the scenes sounding out of replacements, so once BM make the announcement we can move quickly

[Ilkley claret]

Just like Bayern, we may not get our first, second or third choice of manager, given how many PL vacancies out there.

Perhaps Pace is better looking further afield than all the names being touted.

[nil_desperandum]

Don't think there's any chance that Brighton want him
With regards to the other 2 posts or picking up a job following a sacking, this means he is taking on a backs to the wall fight against relegation
(Quite possible that Leicester will be deducted points)
He is coming up 62. Ipswich is a long, long way from his home in Lytham
If I were him I'd much prefer to walk my dogs every morning on the green or beach at Lytham, then make the short journey to manage a team who must start amongst the favourites for promotion
He's not short of money so it rather depends on what his priorities are, but for me a 2 year deal at Burnley with a good incentive to gain promotion and then keep us up would be perfect for both parties.

[NewClaret]

Some frightening names on that list.

Some very good ones as well.

Would like to see Knutsen, Cooper and Moyes making their way up that list.

[BurnleyFC]

From that list, I’d be delighted with Cooper or Moyes and dare I say it, I’d be okay with Lampard, too.

[AGENT_CLARET]

I've sorted this betting list out

Moyes would be a long shot for the reasons several people have given.

[Spijed]

The problem the club have with someone like Frank Lampard is that many supporters don't want him so he'll be given less chance to succeed, especially if we don't start well than say Steve Cooper or David Moyes.

It was exactly the same with Brian Laws. He may or may not have been given a proper chance but it was a toxic feeling when he got appointed, and was never popular.

Exactly, I don’t want Lampard but I’d be prepared to give him a chance. Plenty of others won’t though. You only have to look at the Trafford debacle to see that.

[nil_desperandum]

Moyes would be a long shot for the reasons several people have given.

Well the bookies have him at 14/1, which is probably about right, but that shouldn't stop Pace going all out to get him - if he believes that he is the best man for the job.
"Long shot", yes I agree, but it shouldn't stop us going for him, since we don't know what Moyes priorities are at this stage of his life.

I agree, Pace should certainly be enquiring. But there are obvious barriers, such as:

- wages
- unwillingness to drop to Championship
- PL job opportunity may arise before the season starts or shortly after it starts
- wanting a break.

[HahaYeah]

Would be disappointed with John Terry,Gary Rowett,Scott Parker, Ashley Cole.

Still and Knutsen, who knows.

Carlos Carvalho has had about 25 clubs in 25 years.

Rosenior, meh.

Robins, Lampard, might be good might not.

Potter, Moyes,Cooper, would be happy with any of them.

[Jakubclaret]

When kompany eventually goes the incoming compensation & freeing up his wage will go a long way into breaking down some of them barriers. The club should be an attractive proposition to a reasonable name.

Nixon says Jackson is staying with Burnley.

Nixon says Jackson is staying with Burnley.

Hope so, seems like a decent bloke and knows the club

[ClaretAL]

If he is staying with the club, you would think that the new manager must have been found and agreed to Jackson being in his back room team?

Someone asked Nixon the same question, he says we don't have anyone close.

[Pearcey]

Fair play to Jackson. His family are probably settled here.

[dermotdermot]

I’d make Mike Jackson the manager. He did well enough the last time. Far better option than all the other candidates. Very sensible on his part as well, if this is true. Kompany will be dumped In six months and all his followers will be unemployed.

[ksrclaret]

I know it's easy to forget that people in football are just people after all, but it's entirely possible that Jackson has a happy family life over here and doesn't want to uproot himself or his family for what it likely to be a short spell in Germany.

[claptrappers_union]

I don't think Jackson did that well; there was a new manager bounce, but that's it.

[gandhisflipflop]

No way should Jackson be manager

[Goliath]

I thought he was a dreadful manager if I'm honest. The Newcastle game had been coming, he completely overthought it and ended up worrying way to much about their strengths not ours. That led to players out of position and a feeble passive performance.

[Darnhill Claret]

Kkeiran McKenna might end up staying with Ipswich.
I think he wants the Man U job, but Ten Hag has perhaps got a stay of execution with the FA Cup win but Ratcliffe apparently going to conduct a 'season review'. Seems he's trying to ease Ten Hag out any which way.
Brighton seem to have McKenna high on their list and again 'the press' advising him to hurry up and make a decision or Brighton will move on.
As people have already stated, perhaps Potter is happy to wait for 'the right job', if he is still on a gardening leave type of arrangement. Strikes me as the type of guy to prefer to be working sooner rather than later. I've got a feeling he'll be travelling the world, football wise, to further increase his coaching knowledge.

[morninbob]

Didn't Jackson play under Moyes at Preston

[Darnhill Claret]

On that list, I don't see any surprising names, although I had forgotten about John Terry.
The odds tell me that they haven't yet taken any significant money for anyone and it very much looks like an 'opening show'.
I'm guessing that the first market moves will be guided by the first attempt to place £20 or more.
As dande and kenton have said it doesn't take much money to affect the market and most bookies won't take more than a fifty pound bet. Some much less.
Some exceptions for regular big hitters and regular losers.
