I text Gary Megson but he’s yet to reply.

The level of detail required in club football is so different from international where you get the team 8 weeks a year. It's just no remotely the same. Maybe he's good enough to bridge the gap but I'm not taking the chance. Especially when winning with the German team is a thing that most managers they get can do.

A lot of the revenue from matchdays comes from hospitality. Liverpool build a big stand and the corporate section of 7,000 dwarfs the revenue from the 38,000 regular seats.
Go to any team in the Championship... derby, Middlesbrough, Barnsley, Rotherham... they all have more corporate facilities.
Having a new stadium May not bring us overall success immediately, but gives us that sustained access to an extra £25-£30m per season.
If it’s Scott Parker we won’t exist as a club in two years time.
I don’t think he’s seeing it lol

Why Scott Parker???
Only one man for the job…
One thing I will say is this;
I don't give a single solitary crap about how aesthetically pleasing the football is
All I want is for us to have a winning mentality
We can snide everyone in 1-0 wins for all I care
My issue with Allardyce wasn't that the football was turgid, but rather that we would immediately fold when faced with a good team
If we play crap football every week but have the right mentality and win games then I'm all on board
We can worry about passing in nice triangles when we're actually competing. First and foremost we need to get the basics right
You can't have any pudding if you don't eat your meat

Dyche and Howe found clubs that suited them and built their reputations on the back of that. They’re the Pardew and Curbishley of our age. They’ll flounder anywhere else, especially here.
I’m not in total disagreement with @TheBigIguana’s Potter shouts but - and it’d be the same with Nuno - we’d need 4 or 5 exceptionally shrewd player acquisitions to hit the ground running (preferably very fast) to have a hope of implementing the kind of style that makes them potentially exciting to some.
Conte has had great success in recent years but prefers a system that would see us having to muck about with the area (defence) in which we have fewest current issues with the playing staff. I’m also actually of the opinion that system doesn’t suit our best player (Digne).
Bottom line, I suppose, is it’s all one, massive crap shoot and as much as there’ll be loads of us queueing up in six months to either crow at how boss our pick is doing or fume at how we predicted we’d be rubbish under X, there are so many variables that the manager is just one piece in an increasingly complicated puzzle.
So stop your arguing.

They didn’t come straight up though did they?
Ranieri was an established manager.
Theres very few success stories nowadays from promoting from within, it’s not worth a risk either, not with these players.
Lampard, is the closest to it, and was hounded out.

Boro, Sunderland, Derby, Reading, Bolton...etc new ground dosent do as much some think, might have a better view, but it wont make us better on the field

The TV revenue dwarfs that substantially though. It obviously doesn't hurt but I just wonder if it is worth it. It's a romantic thing for me I'll admit, but I just like classic stadiums staying in sports. We're running out in football. San Siro is going. San Mames went. Bernabeu is getting done again so it'll soon barely resemble the past. All for money too.
