I've got to admit... I'm slooowly coming around to the idea of Dunc as an option.
There's been several name drops now from people in the game, most recently including DCL, pointing to how good he is around the place and how popular he is with the players in general.
Obviously the massive question mark is his managerial inexperience (his tactical nous, for instance) but I don't think there'd be any doubting his commitment and his willingness to punt the piss-takers at the bare minimum. I do wonder how prepared he'd feel now having worked under several different managers, including Ancelotti. He certainly has the inside track on how things have been for a while now and will no doubt have his own ideas.
