Matty, you've been throwing a few confident shapes lately about our next manager.
What aren't you telling us?!

Nice Frank has gone to Coventry.

I don’t think we will re-hire Ancelotti, but I’m not sure that he necessarily ‘jumped ship as soon as something better came along’. His departure coincided with the Ukraine sanctions, PSR restrictions, the knowledge that no further investment was forthcoming, AND an approach from Madrid.
Would he have stayed on without the approach from Madrid, maybe? But his departure was quite similar to Kendall leaving because we wouldn’t sign Dion Dublin, and Joe Royle leaving because we didn’t sign Tore Andre Flo.
Both of our most recent trophy winning managers were disagreeable enough to resign due to not being backed in the transfer market!

Just from the preceeding pages, its clear the job of choosing the manager is as much of a poisoned chalice as the managers job itself.
You need good timing and a lot of luck. There isn't a precise science to this.
I do think we can readily attract very good managers, not from the elite bracket but very good ones nonetheless.
The only issue there is they are only likely to have proven themselves at a lower level, if proven at all. In The Championship, or abroad.
Then you have managers like Mancini. I'm not enthused by managers with his profile and would ask if they really have the hunger for it. At his age and with the career he's had, I don't think it would be hugely harmful to his future prospects if he came in and took us down. He might not bother with football any more after.
But in the here and now, if he showed interest then it's a big name to turn down.
Bottom line is the risk factor. Maybe it's from my own line of work as well but I understand the type of argument that squares back to giving it Moyes, just because of the time and space we're in. That's all and no other reason. In many ways, going cap in hand to him would be symbolically a bit depressing to say the least.
I just don't envy Friedkins the task of choosing, not in the slightest.

Did simms get any chances under Lampard ?

Sadly, I think his wage demands would be way out of our reach given our current predicament.

Sacking Dyche isn't going to be very expensive at all. It would just be like paying for a player's wages that has been injured for the rest of the season.
It depends what you do about replacing him I suppose. If you sack him and bring in someone out of work on half the wages then it effectively costs you nothing. If you sack him (and his staff) and go and pay a release clause for another manager and give them a higher wage than Dyche then it costs you quite a lot.
The complete disconnect and ill feeling towards him will make it incredibly dangerous if he stays.
No way you go into a relegation with fans not behind the manager,it will go nuclear the longer he stays
A new face in the dugout will give everyone a lift.
This as been floating about for ages but is there any proof other than Benny and the hat said so?
Agree with you not saying i fully understand the situatiom but say of its 10 mill to sack him. Would you not want that to be spent on new players this window instead.is a tough choicr for me and i would say need add to the squd more
