Just a spanner in the works. You don't need a big name, as Phil Holder proved when he took us up to the 2nd division for the only time in my Bees supporting years. However, interviewing only doesn't surely give the full picture as the interviwers can't tell until the prospective manager is in a competitive situation how he would deal with players after poor performances/defeats. NF for instance is a 'nice guy' and seems cool on the touchline during games, but would he be able to be 'read the riot act' if necessary in a forceful way. In other words, possibly lose his temper and shout at 'em at halftime in the dressing room when we are 3-0 down. Interviewees can talk a good interview, but unless the interviewers actually know the interviewee, it might not all stack up in reality - when the crunch comes.

Shouting at people rarely gets results-nothing wrong with a calm analytical approach like Coppell.

Thomas Schaaf. He keeps coming up on my i-phone version of footy manager so he must be good and/or gets sacked alot. Sounds like our man.

Anyone know who he is?

Hopefully its a new manager. If it is it probably rules out Buckle. But I would assume its probably going to be Forster as usually the name is always leaked a couple of hours before its announced.

Hows that exciting news? We always have a pre season. In fact I have come to expect it. Unless we have a friendly against Barcelona in which case that is exciting

Forster / Bob Taylor partnership?

If Di Matteo only works well with a decent budget, he would do very well here then.

I would not trust anything a Franchise 'supporter' says anyway, lowest of the low.

I would imagine it's this and to be fair, it is fairly significant.

You're kidding right? There's enough people on here who think Alexander & MacDonald are over the hill. :)

It's about the creation of an Under 21 development squad to play friendlies next season bridging the gap between youth and first team...

Interesting.
Sounds exciting, but what will happen to first team squad players, and those over 21, working their way back to fitness after injury, bearing in mind the reserve tam has been withdrawn from their league?

My bro in law in a MK Donkeys s/t holder. Bearing in mind an earlier comment on this thread that Di Matteo has only ever inherited good and/or reasonably financially healthy clubs, i asked him what he thought of RdM's capabilities in terms of picking up a run of the mill club like BFC, and worryingly, he said he felt he was not that suited. Worse still, the big criticism at MKDs was that he had no plan B. Now where have i heard that before..... I have been quietly hoping di Matteo might be our man. Now, maybe my views have changed a little.
Click to expand...

Yes but we do not know if he will get the job. Fair play and repect to your Brother in law. One thing a lot of us have to realise, not all of us are going to be happy about certain managers joining us. One thing I think most of us know and want tha,t it will not be a guy making us play like a bunch of donkeys. Kicking the ball into the clouds. I just hate to think of us ever playing that sh*t ever again. di Matteo (IF IT IS HIM) has been nurtured to play football and that is what we will get. He may not be the man, nothing at all is ever guarenteed. All I want is to come away from gp knowing I saw a good game win or lose, and look forward to our next home match. Not dread days at gp watching sunday football.

Only hope that he has Managerial experience.....and can kick a few arses if required....:sorted:

Agreed, NB cannot be accused of jumping on any bandwagon or being wise and vocal after his dismissal, he was shortly behind Davee who wanted him dead, NB expressed grave concerns about his style of football and attitude even when we were winning and performing well in the Carling Cup.

Dead's a wee bit strong, I'm happy with him gone and leading Rotherham above us and into the Champions league.

Beat us 3-2 at Griffin Park on his first game in charge. But yes, very slow start but not helped at all by the squad he inherited from Brian Tinnion's time in charge, Marcus Stewart, Michael Bridges etc...

Sorry Davee, my point was that it was personal with you and that from personal experience you didn't like him before you didn't like his football but I concede you never wished him dead!
 

Another Manager Poll

Yes, I think he did. Part of it focussed, iirc, around a drinking culture at the club

Overall he was a pretty successful manager at Yeovil & B City.

You are right about the ''Dead'' bit Davee.
Just read post 1682.

No worries mate, everything is rosy at the moment! Hoping it's RDM as he is a very decent guy and would only do it for the adventure as he has a huge property portfolio, lovely family and stupid expensive Range Rover.

I still think Nicky has done a great job, but if MB wants to chuck a few million at it we might be better served by an older head.

Whatever, really. It's got to be better than the talentless bully that Scott became, still hate him!!

He was until their second season in the Championship.
Then they lost their way and he was out of a job. Usual stuff, just like Magilton at Ipswich: baffling team selections/formations irked the fans.
 

Another Manager Poll

Jim Magilton is a decent shout ('cos I just did it). Plays passing football and will want to prove the doubters wrong, especially that lot from W12.
 

Another Manager Poll

Jim Magilton is NOT a decent shout. According to my Ipswich spies he is an utter c*nt and will get no respect from our fans or the players.
You should strike him from your mind.....and replace the image with the calming alternative that is Lorenzo Pinamonte.

Jsut went past GP and saw Paul Gibbs carrying a man resume case. Could it be him?

this is a bit like waiting to see what you've got for christmas... coming from a poor family, i'm used to pretty crap presents but now i understand we have a bit more money iso 'm hoping for something a bit special... to be honest, i'll probably now be a bit disappointed with a nicky forster when previously i'd have been quite happy... i'm not spoilt, so if that's what i'm getting, i'll try and make the most of it... i am still kinda hoping we can stretch to a glenn hoddle, a roberto di matteo or one of those rare chris hughton's... i've been a good boy santa... if i get a paul buckle, ii'll try it for a while but i'm sorry, but i'll probably end up taking it to the next car boot sale.
