REALISTIC manager thread

Can we have one realistic thread for next city manager

No BELLAMY and ducth Ray

No Brendan Rodgers etc

We have to run not losing money including a loss in parachute payments at an estimated £6m so we aren't going to be splashing out on a manager on massive money and if we spend on a manager then less goes on players, I also don't see us buying anyone out of a contract that would command a large fee so I'd be looking at someone out of work or from lower leagues hopefully young and upcoming to join us

Bellamy says he'd love to come but I don't see him coming here for less than £1m a year and we won't pay that unless tan thinks it will pay for itself in merchandise and ticket sales

Warnock, Pulis (I doubt he will stay at WB) or Pearson.........

What's the point in staying cheap, Mediocrity ??? We've tried that and the crowds are dropping like flies, the Manager is the most important person in the club !!!!

Why would Bellamy be on 1 million a year?he's only just starting his management career there's a lot better managers on a lot less than that

None of them will work as coaches with someone else having final say on the make up of their squad.
