No sure if he would be calm enough ???

Roy Keane hasn't worked, not sure if Bellamy would ???

I would go with Bellamy as long as he has an experienced assistant alongside him (possibly Trollope ?).

The massive advantage is that no matter what anyone thinks it would certainly generate some positive interest in the club again, players would be attracted by the name and Bellamy would be secure enough to ensure things were done HIS way on the football front.

Any management appointment is a risk. Malky was a risk, Rodgers and Monk were both massive risks for the Jacks (Rodgers because of his previous record and Monk because he didn't have a record !!). Sometimes a risk is worth taking, xcept where the name involved is Slade :roll: :lol:

Bellamy has gone out of his way to watch numerous coaches around Europe and study their ways! So he possibly could be excellent head coach, with good assistant around him! :thumbright:

I'd prefer to see how he does somewhere else first. With that notorious temperament of his, it could turn out to be a disaster :lol:

It's worth a go to be honest

I'd back this, with Trollope as his assistant.

In his autobiography he said that's what he wanted to do.
I'd take him over slade without a doubt.

He would never work for Tan. Who in his right mind, who has some integrity, and doesn't want to flush his career away, would work for him?

Next candidate please.

This may happen in two years time and maybe be the point where the club regroups and pushes on. Who knows if VT will be around then but the appetite for a full CCS is certainly there if all the right football buttons are pushed.

I'd shove them up his stinking arse!

To be fair, Bellers had a pretty good stint as Wales captain. He showed a lot of maturity, given the responsibility.

A no brainer. He cannot do any worse than Slade and at least the team may play with a bit of 'passion'.

Didn't CB originally turn the job down, due to his respect for MM?

I like the idea, but could never see it happening as long as VT is in charge.

I think he said that at some point, but I think that was also to do with him not being ready (in his opinion).
At the time he probably thought Malky was a good man
