Di Canio to be manager before Saturdays game.

Please let this be true. exactly what we and the team need. team need a massive kick up the backside and the fans a manager we can see passion in. paulo please please save us!!

So not before Tuesdays game then? X

Di canio can save us!

Exactly what we don't need. Yes he is a passionate manager who can fire up players but this can also work the other way as it did at Sunderland and rip the team apart. Also apart from one promotion from lg1 to lg2 his managerial career isn't exactly great, he only won 2 of thirteen games at Sunderland, think in this position and this league someone with a little more experience as a manager would be better

Lets have a risk for a change, too many "safe" managers like Irvine, Megson and Jones. Only one man for the Job BENITO CARBONE!!

Mates a sunderland fan, its the board that's ripping them team apart pal. even poyet is falling out with them
experience don't mean nothing, bet u was buzzin when we got jones, ssshhhhh, should have stuck with megson

To be fair we could appoint Carbone as assistant to Di Canio if that is what people want because BC has virtually no management experience beyond lower league Italian football and even that was pretty unsuccessful. The Championship, in terms of revenue, costs, player wages, transfer fees, attendances, tactics, clubs size and pretty much every other measurable facet is miles bigger than even many of the top flight leagues across Europe so doesn't even compare to lower level Italian football. BC would probably jump at the chance to be PDC assistant if offered. It's Christmas after all, 2 for 1 and all that haha.

I love the post saying we should take a risk and go for Benito Carbone. Would you still be saying it was a risk worth taking when a manager with no experience takes us back into Lg1. I bet a lot of money you would be one of the first to jump on the boards back for taking a risk in the current situation

^^ This. Spot on.

Ex players don't always make good managers

That said I would stick my neck out and ask Megson back if he would come until the end of the season

I know he's not everyone's choice but he's got Wednesday in his blood

At least the players would go out a play with pride and passion, let him get us out of danger and assess the situation at the end of the season

Roland Nilson would be a great appointment. Knows the the club and loved by the fans, if not Ole Gunna Solchar. exuse the spelling.

JONES HAS GONE! 5pm tonight! Brilliant news!

Really?! I'm not convinced myself! Why's nothing being said yet then?

It's official, Daily Mail website released it 5 mins ago as , google it if don't believe

Finally, should have kept megson. boring old fool dave jones

Just seen it, thanks for info!

Who is favourite to take over?

About time! Welcome stu Pearce

Finally, but who to replace him? Pearce is fav, then worryingly Di Canio and Carbone. Then Holloway who I'd love but can't see him wanting to come here. Realistically I like to see Karl Robinson, got MK playing good football, winning games on a tight budget. Would make great use of McCabe as well.

It's my Birthday today

Thank You Milan for giving me the present I really wanted

It's the start of our season TOMORROW you watch us climb up the table

To Ponty Owl I love you X

Now being announced on tv, fantastic news, we have a chance.
Bring back Megs on or Mike Phelan

Yep. On the beeb website so pretty much done and dusted. Phew, I actually feel. lighter!

Bring on. who? {Ed003's Note - I might be putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5 but I saw Appleton at Bloomfield Road yesterday,Just thought I'd share that info lol.}

Hope its hollaway

Appleton was on my list of those in contention on the banter side a few hours ago, personally I'd not be too happy about him getting the nod but at least DJ has been put out of his misery.

Just seen di canio in forty foot!

Appleton has past connections at Blackpool so nowt strange about bein there Saturday. don't want him ere really {Ed003's Note - very true,just sharing the info also saw a message from a Journo today saying he was in The Presidents Suite with MM.}

Carbone backed in from 33/1 to 8/1.

I think Paulo just didn't work at Sunderland but let's be fair, his record on a small budget at Swindon was fantastic. Scored no less than 2 goals per game for 13 games running, 7 clean sheets on the trot, the best defensive record in the league and scorers of the most goals in the league. Worth a punt to me.

Thanks Ed! Really put the cat among the pidgeons there! Not sure Appleton is the answer. but I know I couldbn't do the job.

Look lads we have all had our opinions but it's the right decision
Milan will make his choice but it our noise that will drive the team on as well as new ideas, new passion and new directions
Let's get behind the new man and get us back in a respectable place
Dave Jones thanks but enjoy your pay off and try and smile while you count your redundancy money

Right all you we want DJ out fans, be careful what you wish for, I suppose it can only get better but when it arrives for gods sake get behind him whoever he is UTO
