Re: New Manager
Great post, Carpon.
After getting over the initial shock, my mind kept coming back to Phil Neville, but I think it's unlikely.
Paul Cook has had loads of stick for the timing of his departure - he didn't control the timing of the opportunity that came his way - and in some ways, Leam's departure is worse given the relatively short time we have to try and get contracts sorted for players wanted at the club next season, sound out potential new players etc. Not many players will show much interest in playing for a manager less club, let alone sign, so I think there is a reasonable degree of urgency for us in making a new appointment.
Much as I would rather not see Coleman and Bell back in charge, I fear they will increasingly look the best option for a variety of reasons.
