We are bit of a gamble for a manager that still has an intact or growing reputation. Many might prefer £3m elsewhere to cement the reputation, with stable ownership, decent crop of youth players and DoF and scouts regularly unearthing a cheap diamond that can be developed, be a hero for a year the sold.

We have our history, our fans and the new stadium. And Pickford. God knows what the PSR situation is, and the stadium revenue won’t wipe the issue out overnight. TFG showing they are trigger happy with managers after the same number of bad results Dyche can squeeze into a fortnight.

Bit worried we are the right club at just the wrong time for some of the names mentioned, maybe a year too early if they want to protect their reputation, even if we pay more and have the “project” some might like. Wouldn’t be devastated with Moyes very short term, but still being optimistic our squad “should” be capable of more than 1 point per game, I’d rather he had got the Leicester job to force our hand into something a bit more forward thinking.
 
There seems to be a fair amount of negativity around the attractiveness of the role.

While we dont know how much the Friedkins would pay a new manager, we are paying Dyche £5mil a season and they previously hired Mourinho so wont be shy.

Everton is one of the biggest names in English football.

There will be a new world class stadium (weve already been told our youth and 1st team training facilities are top notch).

New ownership with capital behind them


I think this job is probably one of the most attractive in the game. Anyone who gets the team back into the upper places will be forever remembered and can write their own ticket.
I just don’t see Mckenna jumping ship midseason, especially to a team who is hovering only just above the team he’s at now.

It would be a really stupid thing for him to do to be honest. That’s why I would ideally like dyche to see out the season, because a manager like that is far easier to attract at the end of the season if we stay up. Unfortunately results might force our hand but its fairly obvious that we’d be in a better position to get who we actually want at the end of the season in an ideal world.

Me neither at the moment but that’s what I’m saying, it’s not ideal. Nobody good is leaving a job to come here and try to keep us up from being in the relegation zone in December, it’s potentially career suicide. That’s why I’d have liked dyche to be able to see it through to the end of the season, it would have meant we were in a better position to get someone good. As it is we’re probably looking at moyes being the best option or taking a proper punt on someone that we have no real faith in. It’s an absolute nightmare really and the last thing we needed, just putting the rebuild back another couple of years in all likelihood.

Depends what we offer him.

Of course it would be easier to attract a manager at the end of the season.

If we dont have that luxury should TFG only look at unemployed ones?

He has a rock solid relationship with the owners at Ipswich, nothing we can offer will make him come here Zat, It's a very strange shout from you.

I think McKenna is probably the least obtainable option there is - after signing his new contract, it’d now cost us about 22 million quid to buy him out of it. If we did that mid-season we’d breach our allowance unless we sold Branth to pay for it. Even if we did it at the end of the season, we’d have nothing left to spend on players. Compare it to Iraola at Bournemouth who we could get for about 1.5 million.
 
Interesting that Carlo is under pressure at Madrid. Could easily imagine him leaving there in summer. He’d be 66 at the beginning of next season and of course walked out on us, but would anyone have him back for the Bramley Moore? Would certainly cause a stir again and if he could be tempted before, I’m sure he could be tempted now.

Nah, because as was the case before, he'd walk as soon as a better option presented itself. We need a longer term option, Potter is probably the best we could do, or some up and coming manager from abroad.

I'd have him back in a heart beat!

I’m not saying they should only look at unemployed ones, I’m saying ‘leave your cushy job where you’re a hero and can do no wrong to come to us and try to get us out of the relegation zone’ isn’t the sales pitch you seem to think it is.
