How is he getting on in Management? He used to have a couple of reasonable Teams then suffer from stress early in his career. IIRC he was a Hearts fan as a youngster. If he can stand the presures he maybe worth a thought. A lot of folk reckon we need a Hearts minded Manager after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David McCaig Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Bryan Robson was catastrophically bad at Sheffield United. From the moment he arrived at Bramall Lane he was an incompetent grey cloud raining misery on all below (apart from Wednesday fans). Under Robson, United were rapidly heading towards League One, after his departure they were the outstanding championship team for the last two months of the season. His depressing monotone voice could inspire the worlds happiest man to consider suicide within weeks, I would be amazed if he ever manages again.

washniklaw Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 This may sound crazy but what about throwing Steve McLaren's name into the mix. I know he didn't do too well with England but the fact he got the job suggest he's right up there. Remember it was only a couple of years ago he got Middlesborough to the Uefa Cup Final. He's been linked with FC Twente in Holland so he's willing to move, and I think our pay packet would be roughly what he's looking for (obviously down on his England money). What does anyone think?

FC Twente have also just secured champions league football, something which he's never had in his career. Personally, I don't think he'd take over at us or Twente. He'll be sitting waiting on a mid table premiership team to sack there manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CornhillHearts Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Why not go for Michael O'Neill or Kenny Black both have managerial experience and know the scottish game and come a lot cheaper than others. As we have to slash budgets and they will have the hunger required i would take a chance on either and forget about Levein,Jefferies or Billy Davies.

Stewart MacD Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Now Alex Fergie has the EPL and CL wrapped up, where's the challenge left for him with Man U? The biggest challenge around is dislodging Rantic from their perch. He's done it before. A pay cut perhaps, but, given the dosh offered to McGhee, I'm sure he could live with it.

Geoff Kilpatrick Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Here was the original Anderton list back in 2005 (source, Believe):- Category A: Sir Bobby Robson, Gerard Houllier, Graeme Souness, Ron Atkinson, Kevin Keegan, Gordon Strachan, George Graham, Co Adriaanse and David Platt. Category B: George Burley, Billy Davies, Neale Cooper, Steve Cotterill, Gary Johnson, Dave Jones, Gary Megson, Joe Royle, Paul Sturrock and Peter Taylor I would say that out of that lot, Billy Davies might be the only one we could attract IF he had full autonomy over team selection. That's an indictment of how far we've fallen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merseyjambo Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Personally I would go for someone like Roberto Martinez or someone like Geraint Williams, Simon Grayson, Owen Coyle, Paul Trollope, Danny Wilson, Martin Allen, Steve Tilson or Darren Ferguson All highly respected managers in the lower leagues in England. Their sides play decent football and its mot a step to the past in the form of Levien or Jeffries. I have nothing against either if them, but I think we need a fresh start manager wise. Lets face it those 2 candidates flopped in England. The names mentioned have eyes for a decent player, contacts with EPL clubs for possible loan players and are used to working with limited resources I also like Brian Laws and Gary Johnston but don't think we could get either of them.
