    Once again, the board should have a shortlist and approach them now. We won’t, we will wait until June and be scrambling around like the * outfit we are!! It will then be give to Maloney….”always our number 1 choice”….

    This will be the likely scenario and if its not Maloney it will be someone of similar pedigree or another Ronny Deila, there won't be many well known managers next season who will want the job for a few reasons,
    1. Facing the prospect of a full rebuild of the first team especially if Maeda,CCV,Hatate and AJ all decide thats its time to move on.
    2. The Board's refusal to spend what is required to add quality to the first team.
    3. The Board selling our best players and replacing them with players that the manager doesn't want or feel are of the required quality.
    4. Being told that Kennedy and Strachan must be part of the backroom team and that they may only be allowed to bring in one or two of their preferred coaching staff instead of a whole new backroom team, which most managers do these days when they join a new club.
    5. Our reputation this season in Europe is likely to take a hit due to the results and ongoing issues between the Board and Supporters and likely boycotts/protests which the media and world will all see.
    The damage that the Board have done from both the January and Summer transfer window's could set us back years and that for any potential new manager won't be an enticing prospect.

    How will the board appoint a shortlist if they are sacked by the end of the season?

    Muscat plied his trade under Ange, think he’d do a great job here and honestly surprised the huns never went for him. His teams play very similar to Ange, would need a director of football though definitely.

    All the strong links from last time all have turned into top level coaches.

    Welcome to Celtic, John Hughes.

    Craig Bellamy if he can tone down his emotions for me.

    Still think Chris Davies has been identified as our future manager for a while.

    If it was going to be Kennedy, it would of happened already.

    It should never be Scott Brown, or at least not for another 5-10 years at least.

    Chris Davies has a good gig at Birmingham

    I think it’ll end up being Martinez after the World Cup with Maloney as his assistant. Our board are * idiots but they’ll want a big name to replace Rodgers and I think Martinez is the biggest name we could get, realistically

    I’d still prefer someone a bit more hipster but hey ho, better than Brown

    Martinez is an utter fraud of a manager.

    Muscat or Chris Davies for me. Both would do a great job for us
