Managerial Merry-Go-Round 2020/21

[Chief Rocka]

Weird one with one game left of the season.

Genuinely feel sorry for the bloke as he seems a nice guy, but honestly football has been horrid to watch recently.

Must have someone lined up?

I agree, it wasn't working, performance levels have just plummeted and the football was shit.

Aye I get the reasoning behind it, and probably want someone in to have a full pre season etc.

Just seems weird timing with a game left.

 

[Chief Rocka]

Yeah I don't get it, you could've easily just let him manage this dead rubber game and do the deed after, maybe they didn't want to sack him on the back of a win if we did beat Colchester?

I'm conflicted, I feel for the bloke cos he's a decent fella, but I genuinely don't think he has what it takes to be a manager and this is the right call.

Whoever is next, HAS to be an experienced manager, simply cannot be another rookie learning the ropes.

Yes I hope they already have someone lined up, to decide on the retained list/new signings and a full pre season etc.

Because if they take the piss to announce someone now then it is just really oddly timed.

Heard something or hoping?

 

[Agombar stool]

I've heard John Yems is being lined up.

Hoping, Done an unbelievable job at the heed.

Ouch, you don,t know our chairman.

Weren’t Hartlepool linked with the Bromley manager last time? Maybe with their season now done he’s on the market again.

He thinks he’s above the folk of Hartlepool

 

[Monkey Tennis]

Trying to nip in and get Phil Brown before we offer him a 3-year deal.

Well I think it’s a little sunnier in Artlepool,

I think the ship with him has sailed, now Bromley's arse have fallen out his stock is at an all time low.

 

[Optimistic Poolie]

As always the rumours are circulating, the most common name I’m hearing is Pete Wild from Halifax.

Chris Beech’s return

Tony Mowbray leaving Blackburn for a better work/life balance with family in Saltburn.

Sounds too good to be true doesn't it!

 

[BarraMatt]

Paul Cox has applied.

 

[Chief Rocka]

Paul Cox has applied.

He'll have to pay us a six figure compo this time!

 

[chipmunx]

Mark Cooper is available - if you appoint him before the weekend he'll get another of his touchline ban out of the way.....

 

[Soup Ladle]

I thought this would happen. Singh is a c*** and has largely hung him out to dry.

That said he probably wasn't going to make it. Nice bloke but I agree he's not a manager. Get Nelse away as well please.

Wouldn't surprise me if the vibe was that the players aren't signing as they didn't want to work under Lee. Or even Singh.

Hearing rumours it's Mowbray but sounds far fetched to me. Got to he Wild from Halifax. Mike Williamsom also a good shout perhaps.

what happens if Wild gets Halifax up via the play offs though....

 

[WilsdenBantam]

Shame to see our former captain lose his job, but the Hartlepool we played under him were appalling compared to early season it didn’t reflect well on him.

 

[Soup Ladle]

Still a bigger job here mind. We should've gone for him before when DC left.

Yeah we have completely nosedived. I like to see people get time but it was fairly obvious how the games were playing out that he'd not got any command on things.

Wouldn't mind Wild but can't see it being him, with them entrenched in the playoffs and potentially in there till June and our season ending in 2 days we need someone in sharpish to build a squad.

Mowbray would do for me.

 

[Sestonpoolie]

Apparently Wild was offered the job before Lee,but wanted to commute from home,Oldham I think & that put kybosh on it.
I feel for Lee,but it’s the right decision.The football is awful,his signings have been poor,he’s wasted our best attacking threats in Sterry & Ferguson with his 4-3-3 formation& he always looks distracted in interviews.
For me the players don’t want to play for him, even the warm ups seem so unprofessional now.
If it is Mowbray & Mark Venus,Raj will have to pay big bucks to get them.
Is he prepared to do that.

 

[Sestonpoolie]

Paul Cox has applied.

Where is The Brand these days?

Mind, did all right for Cheltenham with Duff and then us. Worst thing we can say about RE is he proved to be a bit naïve after getting us fifteen points clear, which is not a bad flaw as they go.
