Boom... Maybe you should do another poll?? Who's gonna be next?? Who can Darkslime possibly turn too to get it wrong again??
Here's a bunch of unemployed to cast our feasty eyes upon....
- David Moyes
- Malky McKay
- Alex McLeish
- Chris Houghton (fancied for Fulham)
- Ole Gunner Solskjaer
- Tony Pulis
- Phil Brown
- Keith Hill
- Mark Robins
- Iain Dowie
- Gianfranco Zola
- Rene Mulensteen
- Brian McDermott
- Alan Curbishley
- Phil Parkinson
- Paul Ince
- Steve Clarke
- Gareth Southgate
- Danny Murphy
- Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink (linked with just about every job that becomes vacant)
- Alan Pardew (after Wenger he's the longest serving Prem boss - I bet that's shook you all? It did me)
There's some dinosaurs in there but I'd be very surprised if our next boss didn't come from that list

I just think his position is untenable since Sat. He must know it too.He should surely resign or reach a mutual agreement now. I stress I' m not saying that he is 100% bad for us.He may have long term strengths but the tipping point has now been reached. I must say that I find the silence from owner board chairman quite bewildering. Apathy is rampant all around

I wonder if there's any mileage in checking out the availability and aspirations of Peter Beagrie. It's his job to know all about the lower leagues (which he does); he speaks with authority; he is clearly intelligent and articulate (which would make a pleasant change from the dim-wittedness of our Doog); he is lively and enthusiastic, which you would have thought would be minimum requirements for a championship manager, though these qualities seem to be missing from the touchline demeanour of both Dougie and LL.
If not, would Steve Claridge fit the bill? He is similarly blessed, I would suggest.......
My third choice would be to reinstate Jimmy Phillips and his two sidekicks......a cheap option worth pursuing in view of their inside knowledge of the club and their relative success last time they were allowed to hold the reins.
In answer to the subject of this thread, anyone with a grasp of morality and the best interests of our club at heart, would do the decent thing, admit he is out of his depth and leave now before the club's position in the league becomes irreversible. If he won't, then Phil and/or Eddie need to step in sooner rather than later. Two years have already been wasted

Considering that Gartside, Davies and Warburton stayed behind after the Derby game, surely they formulated a plan to get out of this mess.
The next game is away so it gives them some time before the next wave of abuse
I have a bad feeling they may wait till after the Fulham game to reveal their plans.
I can't really believe that Davies would ditch Gartside, even if Dougie was sacked so I think Davies and Gartside might decide it's not worth the hassle any more and put the club up for sale

Randy Lerner of Villa has them up for sale for 100 million 51 million in debt... Lerner converted 91 mill in loans to the club to equity... we're 160 million in debt... go on, have a stab at it... PL club vs bottom half Chumpionship club... |

Two years have already been wasted ... can't see either giving up their reputations to come here... may as well ask Mourinho... nice thought though... |

Where's these multi billionaire Emirates and Etihads of the Far East when you need one?  I think the book stops with the 2 aforementioned airline companies , when it comes to rich Arabs. We may as well ask the Warburton family !!!!!! |

I honestly can't see the logic in giving him the Fulham game. At this stage now its not even about results its about the future and he's lost the fans. Had we been losing 50/50 games by the odd goal you may say give him time, he'll sharpen up the back and we'll turn defeats into wins or draws. But his style doesn't work for me, definitely not in this league and definitely not for Bolton Wanderers.
Best case we scrape a 1-0 win, fans will still want him out because we've had enough of this drivel on and off the field.
As for who takes over, I've said before I'd like Mulhensteen. I don't rate Phil Brown but think he might be the right man at the right time, he can bring back the fans he knows what it means to the players and he's seen how Big Sam did it. Jimmy I think deserves from now until Xmas. I have a bad feeling we'll go for McLeish. Who I don't rate at all.
People laughed when Neil Warnock got a mention before Dougie, not now. Pulis is silly talk, you don't win LMA manager of the year in the premiership to take over a cash strapped club in the bottom three of the Championship. McDermott would do me fine. Zola, Ince, Di Canio, Solksjaer, no thanks.

I should think the only plan those three formulated was to work their way through the drinks cabinet and blot out the whole sorry mess. |
