Maybe the other half of that particular caretaker duo could as well as still doing a job in the back four?

I suspect it's that half of it that carried Preston through the past few weeks, he wouldn't be a bad choice. Put him in with Hoskin

We must not get a journeyman basement league manager, that's for sure. Paul Simpson, Peter Jackson, et al - this means you. Please stay away.

Nor do we want fresh-out-of the game unproven ex-pros as mentioned in this thread.

Paul Cook is the only one that springs to my mind.

It does concern me that there is not a footballing input on the board. We have missed that since the departure of the great Phil Terry & Co.

Simple really, don't change much,Patto in charge till end of season with Hughes and Liam assisting.
Saves the club money and gives them breathing space to make the right appointment.
Liam as a long shot,as he knows the club and has his badges

Like the sound of hughes in a managing role!

Ian Thomas-Moore is talking Daddy's chances up on Twitter. Please, please, please do not go anywhere near Paul Simpson, no matter how well he comes across.

Cooky turned down St Johnstone in October because they couldn't offer him the right terms. Is it fair to presue their terms would be better than Stanley could offer, or would sentiment and the chance to manage in a proper football league give some leeway ?

This always confuses me with football fans.

"He's a great player, we love him, and he's getting on now! Make him manager! I don't care if he has no managerial experience... Get him!"

No.

Like that idea n think its worth a punt. Patto fer rest of season,then take it from there. also gives the assistants time to develop or not, But can i ask is it a definite Jimmy is also going? there's bin no mention from Rob Heys comment,

still no surprise yon.

I don't think they're in a much petter position than us financially, are they? I don't know, but "the chance to manage in a proper football league" is exactly the reason why I think he'd go for it. That, along with having coached at the club before and knowing what we're capable of.

I really can't see who'd be a better fit.

In the words of Phil Staley, any manager must have a big black book of contacts. That book is only built up with experience and developing strong contacts. That's the kind of manager we now need, not some unproven 'up-and-comer'.

The problem is, can we afford to pay the wages of that kind of manager and would they want to come anyway?

I'd consider a younger, but experienced non-league manager. One with a book of contacts and the hunger to move onwards and upwards.

I've no idea how much Scottish clubs pay either. Can't see anybody outside the top 2 paying much I guess

Cooky has 1 year left on his contract from what I can see, compo won't be much
