Should we get promoted who could we realistically get as manager in 2010/2011?

[Keefaz]

This thread is too depressing, man.

[ben-nufc]

would love mark hughes roy hodgson or roberto di matteo in all honesty with the fat man we will be left with hughton.

[Ronaldo]

It'll be quite funny seeing Hughton manage in the prem given that he's about the worst manager in the championship.

If it wasnt so gut-wrenching imagining us getting 10 points i would agree

[Darth Crooks]

Went for steve coppell dunno why. Trying to be realistic (ish) as well. I'd take him

[Keefaz]

Where the Mourinho option?

[kingkerouac]

Mourinho needs to have a challenge in his career instead of all the easy options he's had so far.

And as SBR's ex-translator there is a Newcastle connection - however slim.

[Dave]

Someone had to do it.

[Delima]

I think all of the following are attainable, in the sense of them willing to manage Newcaslte, not necessarily Ashley would appoint them.

 

In my preference order :

 

Marcellino - multiple miguel munez trophy winner. Still young, an excellent long term solution with a nice blend of impressive proven track record and obvious potential.

Mark Hughes - have an eye for transfers. Worked wonder with Blakcburn. Still youngish,  a very good long candidate.

Co Adriaanse - has worked in different countries, so shouldn't have any problem with cultural adaptation. Track record is quite decent.

Alan Shearer - sentimental reason.

Chris Hughton - I would rather stick with Hughton than getting others. Hughton has earnt his right, and I don't see others being able to perform meaningfully better than Hughton.

This is one of the saddest threads I have ever seen on this board - just look at how many people voted Keegan.

 

No wonder the media has a field day with us.

[Tooj]

I voted Keegan just because of your post.

[Liam Liam Liam O]

I voted Keegan just because of your post.

 

So did I.

Mickey Hughes has been a class act from what i've seen, competant manager and i'd love to him him a three/four year run here as the magic he squeezed out of blackburn was great.

[Southerner]

why not eh ?

 

i like to think me having a go at peoples grammar may give others a giggle.

[Mike]

Don't have a problem with Hughton keeping the job.

[Dokko]

Not saying we have a chance but Mourinho is apparently ready to buy himself out of his Inter contract (£5m). He's had enough of Italy, doesn't love it and finds the Italian game boring and bland. He wants a return to England which has apparently alerted Citeh and Liverpool.

 

I'd be gutted if he went to Liverpool.

 

Who knows, maybe Ashley will sell up to some mentally rich foreigner and JM fancies the challenge. Aye, whatever. 

[Dave]

Stopped reading there. Sorry.

[Village Idiot]

Lorenzo Serra Ferrer 

[Ronaldo]

Suggested him before but I think Hector Cuper would do a good job with our lot.

[Dokko]

Don't think we can afford to go foreign with Ashley in charge as he'll see it as the first step in getting the Continental system back in place; DOF's and all that shit that worked out so well last time.

 

 

[KaKa]

Would love to see Hughton thrive and go on to be great.

 

Barring that then Sven Goran Erikkson, who would be a realistic option I think.

Think he's had his day as a manager.
