So nobody rates Carlos got the owls to the playoffs twice. Currently with Braga semi v Glasgow R in europa cup. Played good football as I remember. Out of contract in the summer Was a bag of warm poo at Swansea. Also not the guy for fans screaming for longevity. Carvalhal has had more jobs than the Chuckle Brothers.

Swansea were in the deep stuff when he joined and he only just failed to save them from relegation.

Fair enough Bill. Just has all the hallmarks of a short-term appointment for me. I've just checked his Wikipedia and Carvalhal has now managed 20 clubs, with Sheff Weds being the only club he's managed for more than 100 matches. That's an insane stat!

Are short-term appointments such a terrible thing when we have a DOF who's remit is continuity and in charge of signings, as well as Ramsey's role as head of the academy? This has been part of the argument for replacing MW now the season has gone tits up.

This has been part of the argument for replacing MW now the season has gone tits up. It's also partly why MW has only ever had a one year rolling contract.

I've found there to be quite a lot of grey area on where the DoF's remit ends and the Manager's starts.

Strikes me we are neither a DOF regime nor a manager run club.

I've found there to be quite a lot of grey area on where the DoF's remit ends and the Manager's starts. Indeed. I'm just stating the club's official line on their remits. And as I say, it would explain why our managers now only get 1 year rolling contracts.

I've found there to be quite a lot of grey area on where the DoF's remit ends and the Manager's starts. It’s the opposite if you watch the last 2mins of LF video regarding training ground and winter transfer window targets. LF says “nobody comes through the doors without the approval of the manager”

Strikes me we are neither a DOF regime nor a manager run club. Me neither. Seems to be a little consortium when it comes to decision making. Probably a big part of the reason we never seem to get it quite right. I understand the appeal of the DoF system. I just don't see the point of it when you only adhere to a half arsed version of it!

AVB. Fits the profile, right age, English experience, exceptional PPM ratio wherever he's been. Free. Different league to Bielsa or Farke. We're pissing in the wind either way because no one with credibility wants to work at poundland.
AVB? You for real? Ahem. Fixed it for you. Re realistic prospects: flagged em all up over the years when we were busy appointing shite. Like Bruno Lage when no one over here had ever hear of him. Ditto Potter at Ostersund. Etc etc etc.

Ditto Potter at Ostersund. Etc etc etc. If you listen to the recent podcast with Taarabt and Onuoha, Adel was absolutely singing his praises for resurrecting his career at Benfica. You were spot on to flag him up at the time and would have been a brilliantly inspired appointment.

Can't see AVB being the one myself mate. Only ever managed big clubs. Accustomed to having far more resources than he'd have here. Probably wouldn't know what to do with the donkeys he'd have at his disposal here, not to mention the poor standard of refereeing and physical brand of football you see in this league. Loads of better suited candidates out there.

I agree with you Tarbs I think possibly his next prem Job is in the big Sam mould in Jan coming in to try keep someone up after they sack manager.
Think Burnley will hold on to him if they do drop
Would add our fans would be moaning about style of play before turn of the year too

Our fans need to get over the "style of play" argument mate. We ain't gonna ever get out of this division playing Warburton style football. Need to play to your strengths, and we can't afford 11 good footballers.

Louis Pimenta would be a brave, but somewhat controversial choice. Very successful in Norway. A few seasons ago he lead a div 2 team to a cup final against Rosenborg. He favours a 4-3-3 formation and is now in charge of Norway`s U-16 and U-18 squad, me thinks.
