Manager Latest!!!

[samwatto2008]

There has been a change around of favourites of managers since I last post about them. Martin Allen currently favourite with Appleton and Hurst now coming up the rear. Hurst's odds were slashed last night from 10/1 to 7/2 this morning which is 3.5/1. This is very interesting and makes me wonder if having a rejection from Shrewsbury means he is now seeking work at Notts County as AFC Wimbledon look to have their appointment set in stone.

 

Let us know what you think folks. I would be very pleased with either Appleton, Hurst or Allen. Nolan looks to be out of the picture now but at 4/1 can't be ruled out.

I think its a case of wait and see becausw even some of these are just rumours.

[Chris]

I'm burying my head in the sands right now, I just don't believe what's happening and I'm worried we are seeking to be risky now.

[Magic magpie]

Erm this is a hard one simple because there are so many rumours going round and seems so many cadadates for the job if the book makers are to be believed. I think Alan needs more than a week to appoint a new manager 

[Who r ya?? You Pies!!]

Most of the names on that list from what I hear are either not interested or out the running for one reason or another, most seem like just speculation, the Hurst one is a maybe so we have to wait and see , take your time Mr H

Looks like it's going to be Hurst

[liampie]

i have a feeling that kn will be returning, i have heard rumours and gossip about ah wanting to bring him back due to the settlement they have been yet to reach over the sacking. i just hope its not a bad move.

it could be why hardy has left twitter for now.

[cheeky~k8]

Rumours are just rumours but we do seem to be getting closer to getting a new manager, at least based on news and messages from hardy.

[TheSkipper]

I think Shaun Derry or Kevin Nolan will return because Alan Hardy will have seen those discussions about their managerial abilities.

Forgetting the fact most seemed to want them gone in the first place.

[B&Wstripes]

Phil Brown????

Watch him get it and Alan Hardy acts like we have an ex Premiership manager and some with a wealth of experience! He has never been the same since he gave the team talk for Hull City on the pitch.

[ARLukomski]

We have also spoken to Paul Heckingbottom, according to Alan Nixon on Twitter. Very reliable source as well. His odds have gone up to 5/1 too. Hardy also saying it is down to three candidates makes me think it's one of Hurst, Ardley or Heckingbottom 

[cheeky~k8]

Seen as ardley said he declined i assume the 3 can't include him.

I would agree totally with the three you’ve said there mate. I’m pretty sure this is the shortlist.

Has to be Hurst from those three though for me? Better record, better win ratio by far and, we’ll, just better! Happy enough with Ardley because he has earns his stripes at Wimbledon, but the worrying thing there, is the siege mentality was already inbred to the club. Here our defence parts like the bloody Red Sea for Moses!

Heckingbottom...Uninspiring...and generally not enough experience imo. Which probably means of the theee we’ll end up with him!!!

Apparently back in the running now according to the rumour mill...

[Magic magpie]

I’ve been told from a trusted sauce that Hurst isn’t in the running maybe wrong 

[ARLukomski]

All depends on, if Ardley has sorted out compensation with Wimbledon yet

Ah ok... Bit strange to decline and then be a possible choice but thsts business for ya.

[TM1993]

Rumours going round that Kevin Nolan is about to be appointed as the manager.

[menzinho]

And Kevin Nolan is now favourite as per the odds!

[Fozzy]

If Nolan gets reappointed I think I might as well find something else to do on Saturday's as it will be the end for us.

This is bound to go **** up if we take him back.

[liampie]

higgingbottom is supposedly out of the running or considered not to be likely.

[ARLukomski]

The club and the post have gone a bit too quiet 

[KingMaynard]

All the good managers seem to be dropping out like flies, I don't know what to think but I do feel the bookies play games to put people off from backing the right person.

[Magic magpie]

I’m happy that this is taking time I have questioned Steve on my match thread I know but a new manager takes time to choose and after Harry kewell I think we all want the right appointment .. I want to say it’s taking time because him and Kevin are agreeing terms but I don’t think it is .. it’s taking time because Alan wants to make the right appointment
