The bookies list is laughable. Outside of the premier league and a handful of championship teams they really have no idea.

Not Sol. When he did the interview stating "it's not like it's rocket science to run a football club, especially when you get to that level" he showed his contempt for the lower leagues. He regulaly states he is one of the most intelligent people in football, but spouts some absolute rubbish. That's all before the article about racism at sixfields being the worst he has ever experienced. I also was there any heard nothing, not one person let alone the whole stand. I would want a public retraction before even an interview.

I think Brady, Sammo and Rico need a few games. I think they all have the passion about the club that is needed to inspire the players at the moment.
I'd also be speaking to Ricky Holmes about a short term deal!

It’s not going to be JB because the announcement would have said “ take charge till the end of the season”.
Paul Cook all day long, great track record both at Pompey and Wigan, plays good football what’s not to like.
Another option would be Neil Harris ?

There has been a disconnect between academy and senior team for years. We create good footballers but often have someone in charge of the first team who only has the ability to play direct. There is an opportunity to change this; otherwise, the same cycle will continue to repeat itself. I would not appoint a new manager until at least the Summer. Let's see how the new team go. As long as there is no friction over who is top dog - and I don't think there will be - this might be the start of something most of us are craving: a team that plays attractive football and gives chances to the young players the club creates.

Paul Heckingbottom - did well in spells at Barnsley, good job at Hibernian & currently U23's coach at Sheffield United

Maybe Steve Morison, came back to coach before leaving to take over Cardiff U23's

I Know Joey Barton is a nutcase but his aggression, getting the players fired up could really help during a relegation scrap

Surely KT can't seriously consider Sol after his record at Southend

So once again this thread illustrates the nightmare faced by the club when considering who to appoint.

Let's hope that is remembered when it goes wrong, and not only when it works.

I’m not sure going down the route of denying someone’s experience on the basis that ‘you didn’t hear anything’ is advisable. You also don’t know that no one in the stand heard anything unless you asked everyone in the stand which I’d take a guess and say you haven’t. I’d tread with a bit more caution on an issue like this.

There will always be i told you so , i was against Johnson ,Page and Curle. but for Hasselbaink Austin and Edinburgh, we rarely all get it right , id back Brady Rico and Sammo ,even if some say Rico has no experience or Brady has never managed at this level, Brady gets the youth playing the right way and what better striking coach than Rico, bucket loads of goals at this level, and the current crop of lads up front could learn loads. Sammo was never given as much of a chance as many many others since , and his record wasn't appalling either. They have my 100% backing.

Hello and a good afternoon to all.

I would personally like Brady to be offered the chance to the end of season if this is something he wants, as it shows progression within the club.

If its to go outside, Phil Parkinson if he's in any way interested, he could probably welcome a smaller more homely club after Sunderland.

Having looked at the out of work managers list I fail to see a single name that jumps out as "let's get him in".
Definitely I do not want to see whinging characters like Barton, Cowleys or Derek Adams here. No also to Sol Campbell, Steven Pressley, Paul Tisdale and Gary Bowyer who had a win ratio of under 30% when Bradford sacked him last year.
Of those remaining that might be interested Cook could be a good option, unsure on Parkinson, O'Driscoll and McCall. Alternatively we could go for somebody with a decent experience as a number 2 or an up and coming manager from the national league.

If its Sol Campbell, I will disown the club.

Tisdale, rubbish.

Joey, would be lively but no thanks, we've already had one Barton and that didn't last too long.

Klopps on a bad run.

How about considering a none league manager. Gary Challinor at Hartlepool  worth a consideration. Youngish, reasonable track record and got Hartlepool into 2nd position, playing  good football.

A small protest to KT but if Sol Campbell gets the job I will not be renewing my season ticket - in 2014 he wrote in the Times about a cup tie at Sixfields where he alleged the Northampton crowd were baying racist abuse at him - totally untrue from my view at the game with the reality as I saw it, simply being he was involved in a bit of a physical tussle and the crowd jeered him - nothing remotely racist from what I heard and certainly if there was I would be the first to condemn it. I’ve occasionally been ashamed of the behaviour of some of our fans but I can honestly say in 50 years of following home and away the number of racist incidents can be counted on one hand and limited to sad individuals - the suggestion of a crowd baying racist abuse simply does not ring true.
The man is therefore,  in my opinion and based on my presence at that game either dishonest or hard of hearing and did an unpleasant disservice to our club and fans - and also the genuine approach to drive racism out of football.
Agree!
Am sure most of us would be quick to point to any racism amongst the ranks. Truth, it didn't happen...

The guy is a PR job for himself...and little else!

Absolutely, listened to Sol being interviewed on 5Live some years back and was appalled at the amount of victim me, race baiting. i thought then I hope hes never near our club ever.

The recent comments about us being the most racist fans in the country just about sum him up, laughable.

Not sure we'd ever tempt him here but Paul Cook is the best name mentioned on this thread so far, along with Klopp  Tongue
We'd certainly see an attempt at a different style of football.
If you are reading KT dust the cheque book off!

Agree 100% I just think there is more chance of it being Sue Cook.
