I’m an Edu Rubio man, have been for a long time. He coached the Spanish FA, knows men’s football and the youth, knows the club well and is very passionate. I think he will go a very, very long way in the game too.

Who the fuck is voting Grant Mccann? If he got the job I wouldn’t come back till he was gone.

How does he know 'men's football'? Apart from managing the U23 side for a handful of games this season, as far as I can see he has barely as much experience as Micciche has - managed a lot at youth level, but nothing at senior level.

I agree he will go far in his career, but in terms of a new manager to lead us to success in League Two, I think we can probably do better than Rubio. There are lots of managers out of work that have years of experience who have won promotions in the EFL.

Maybe he would be ideal as an assistant to learn his trade from an experienced manager?

Voted for Other, as Dan wasn't among the options. :(
And my other option, Graham Potter, not included either. Disappointed at that. He'd be a good shout if we could get him. It's unlikely, but so are the Cowley's and McCarthy. Is it possible to add him to the list, FD (and change my vote to him)?
Not sure how it works.

Of the listed options, McCall, Cowley, Rosler and McCarthy (for results, in spite of their style and personality), are the only ones I'd say would be good appointments.
Certainly don't fancy Ince, Cotterill, Clark or Hasselbaink. At all. In fact, horrified to see them on there. :o


If I add an option to the poll, it resets all other votes. To be honest, you're the only person I've heard mention him.

Poll is running for 7 days. If we get an influx of votes for Graham Potter then we can compare that to the final result.

Coaching at the Spanish FA for people getting their A license is not just kids football, and doing that for the Spanish FA obviously have faith in him to do that, to me shows he must have something about him. Also from my contacts in the club I know how highly thought if he is, and I know that he does eventually want to go for a managers job.

Personally, McCann wouldn't be the worst option for me. Hasselbaink would definitely be worse.
