Poyet bust-up could see him quitting

Not for me thanks...

he'll be cheap + no compo to Brighton = Kenwright spunking himself

He makes errors that for sure, but the honesty in dealing with other clubs in not in question. Don't take my word for it ask Dave Whelan at Wigan.

Would you like to make the decision he will shortly have to make, knowing that no matter who he appoints he is going to get stick and that includes bringing Sir Alex out of retirement. or for that matter the outgoing Pope.

It just makes my view on Big Dunc and King Kev Sheedy being appointed.
Ok... so both are inexperienced but then so are the above mentioned.

All three of the managers mentioned above have only been managing five minutes, so in that case Dunc and Sheeds should be given a chance, and also Sheeds was assistant at Tranmere and manages our youth team alongside Dunc so their already used to working with each other and done a sterling job with the youth team.

Also, no compensation would be needed and both would demand reasonable wages unlike other managers.

So to summarise... if we are continually linked with unproven, inexperienced managers then I would rather keep the job inhouse and give it to them two as we would be no worse off.

Don't be fooled by his fake credentials and foreign name. Brighton are a media darling club and he did choke in a big game against their nearest rivals (it was a derby, apparently). Let's aim higher eh?

A cheap fix (no buy out clause), low salary and hope for the best.The same as he did with Moyes where he got lucky (certainly initially anyway).

I doubt his ability to pull a similar rabbit out of the hat and in my view he must go for experience and pedigree.

But moving on as defending a Kenwright decision on Tofeeweb is a waste of time. I agree with you that we need experience, pedigree and loyalty. If the first two are not hard enough the third will be nigh on impossible in the current climate.

As for having to choose someone with pedigree, don't forget where Hpward Kendall as when Everton appointed him: at Blackburn in the old Second Division.

As for Kenwright's good reputation (mentioned above), I think Leroy Fer's club would have a thing or two say about the comedy transfer farce that was launched last minute to quieten down the masses at their expense & probably to the detriment of their dressing room & team.

Or was it the other player? There was little intent with either anyway.

Walter Smith told Billy to hire Moyes. He didn't scout Moyes himself.

Every other decision he's made for this club has not been in its interests.

Whatever you think of David Moyes he has had to manage on a shoestring budget and done well with the resources available.

Personally I feel whatever the heart says the head will have to be rationale.

That either means appointing from within: Duncan Ferguson, Phil Neville etc or taking a punt on a manager such as Martinez or Poyet who is not the finished article.

Rationally Poyet has done well at Leeds, Swindon and Brighton. He has worked well on a budget and is clearly looking for a step up. The football played has been attractive and given the players at Goodison now and allowing for two or three new players (we are unlikely to get more) he might just bring a certain more expanse to our game and allow us to kick on.

The forums either want change or more of the same. I suspect if David Moyes had taken a few more risks in certain games rather than being cautious we might just have fulfilled the potential and the club might just have had an FA Cup win or two and a go in Europe.

Laudrup needs a second season for me. Martinez would have us playing nice stuff but would be going backwards down the table. Internally nobody has had the opportunity, others will cost more.

Poyet seems logical but we might be looking for a manager in two years if things go well.....

The Gus we need is the one with another 'u' in it, and the nickname 'Lucky' before it.

RIP, Gary.

Kenwright's judgement call was Megson.

Big Dunc- come on are you having a laugh. Imagine our disciplinary record and his press interviews and media dealings. Theres more to management than intimidation of players .

Hiddink /Riikaard and the like wouldnt touch us with a barge pole so lets get real.

Internal- give Alan Stubbs a go.
External - Martinez.

They may not be perfect but at least they are realistic. Martinez as manager with Stubbs as assistant to work on defensive qualities as this is seen as a weakness with Martinez.

Such a shame, he had it all. Like that Richard Corey song by Simon & Garfunkle (Van Morrison sung it better).

Reading this, and what Kenwright had to say at the awards bash, I really wouldn't be surprised now if we appoint within.

I'd imagine it'll be Stubbs as boss with one from either Neville, Weir, Irvine or Big Dunc as his No.2, IF Kenwright goes ahead and appoints from within to try and keep Moyesie's work ongoing.

Maybe the chants of Gary, Gary, Gary Shithouse Speed may have also deep down had something to do with it.

Football and his family lost a good man. Hopefully food for thought before we give someone else it both barrels in the future.

Shanks was wrong.

Is this the man we want? Bad enough he defends Luis Cannibal anytime he does something daft.
