    Is this the same "2 weeks" as our new signings are always away from being fully fit? New man in by the January Transfer Window then!

    Another was David Bremeng. He's 22 years old. He isn't a youngsters and I'm not sure why he's still at the club.
    Jordan Helliwell 21 in September. Been part of the first team now for 3 seasons at least. Again not sure why he's still at the club.

    Looking more and more like it will be JFH. He’s done well at Burton tbf and knows the division.

    Not had any success recently, I'd rather have Lee Johnson if we are going on past League 1 successes

    In his first stint he got them promoted and in his second stint, he took them from bottom at New Years to well clear of the relegation by the end.

    I guess 16th last season wasn’t amazing but I have no idea on what Burton’s squad looked like.

    So it looks like:

    Don’t want Duff - Uninspiring
    Don’t want JFH - Uninspiring
    Don’t want Warnock - dinosaur
    Don’t want the fella from Man United - No Experience
    Don’t want McCarthy - ‘look how he left Cardiff’

    You could name 10-15 other managers who would get the same short shrift.

    Basically we want someone to play the style of Klopp, have the man management of SAF, the coaching ability of Pep, be under 50 but older than 37. Have played AND managed in England, have infinite resources that can be tapped into for free. All whilst managing in League One and not leaving when others give admiring glances.

    In reality if you gave me someone who galvanises us like Val did and has more personality and tactical nouse than the last two charlatans I’ll be happy.
