Who would you want IF Jones does go..?

Naturally, people were annoyed about last nights result. We didn't play well and whilst Crawley didn't either, they won and looked comfortable seeing the result out.

My question is, who would people want IF Jones does go? Me personally, I would like the look of Gary Rowett or Ryan Lowe. As an outside bet, Id like Mark Robins but think he will land a championship gig.

    Said this before last night but Robbie Elliot is an up and coming manager.

    What will probably happen is Andy Scott comes out of retirement.
    He is but he’s only recently started a new job

    Obvious answer is Robins but that’s not realistic. Ryan Lowe is probably waiting to return to Plymouth. 

    Biggest problem is I don’t think we’re an attractive proposition 
    We're still considered a big club at this level so i think we'll always attract people for the role. We've been terrible for years and we got Jones just a year after he was managing in the Premier league.

    Curtis Fleming will get it, so no point thinking about anyone else (although Robbie Elliott is one for the future maybe!).

    I'd try and bring Sir Chris back personally. A man manager, which is what this lot desperately need at the moment. I don't think this lot are malicious a la Duchatelet in terms of how a relationship deteriorates, which is the reason Powell left when he did imho. Well worth seeing if he'd want it.
    Hasn't he turned this lot down once already?

    I’m sure there’s an interview in which he talked about not wanting to be a manager again.

    Didn’t they offer him a short term director of football or something , deffo not a full time managers job 
  • ForeverAddicktedForeverAddickted
    Jason Pearce or someone with a background like Kieran McKenna / Des Buckingham / Michael Skubala 

    Someone new with fresh ideas, it worked when we hired Curbs - Powell - Bowyer. Dont necessarily care about their CV and what they've done beforehand
  • forzajuve_27forzajuve_27
    I wouldn't be disappointed to go down the ex-player route: Powell, Jackson or Elliot (in that order).

    Otherwise: Warnock, Robins, Warburton

    First choice Gary rowett or Steven Schumacher. Long shot mark robins . 
  • RedmidlandRedmidland
    I can't see any non-ex manager touching us with a very long barge pole! Therefore for me, if it were in the slightest way possible, Powell with Curbs as DoF, for the rest of this season. Then renegotiate and see if they want it longer, depending on where we finish of course.
    However it needs to be done b4 the window opens!

    Is Nigel Pearson open to returning to management? Could we take a punt on Jason Euell? Surely he'd get us looking dangerous up the pitch

    be a question of who wants the job .. Mark Robins would be ideal, however I suspect he is too cream crackered after his turbulent time at Coventry and he might be looking for a break for a while
    A man manger is needed i m o, a manager who can get his players motivated by persuasion and logic and not by bullying and cursing.
     I am at a loss to think who is the right man. I (almost jokingly) suggested Rob Eliot on another post. Ex Addicks players mostly have a great record of managing us, so why not, IF IF he wants the hassle rather than staying where he is now, developing a small, efficient club

    We lost hart and replaced him with?

    one of the reasons we are so shit is the constant sacking of managers and the reinventing of the wheel.

    back not sack, improve the back room staff, improve scouting and improve budgets. 

    When jones joined, we were outside the relegation zone on goal difference (I think). We were at an all time low. I don’t think we will improve on that if we constantly have two managers a year.
    agree with your logic, to an extent, BUT (a big BUT) i m o the players are not responding to Jones's managerial 'qualities' right now, and I doubt they will ever 'get it' .. sad to say, not ideal, BUT Pearce as a stop gap manager surely can't do a worse job than Jones while a PROPER search for a manager takes place .. and good luck with that

    As always, big discrepancy between who we might want and who would actually accept the job - I remember people wanting Howe or Wilder before they both got PL jobs.

    Ryan Lowe would seem a good choice - decent record, plays decet foodtball - but I suspect he might believe (and possibly rightly) that he can get a Championship job.  As fenaddick says, he'd be a favourite if Rooney gets sacked at Plymouth. 

    Robins isn't realistic.

    Powell I'd absolutely take, but would he want it?  Less stressful being an assistant.  Definitely didn't think he'd come back while he had the England/Spurs job, but Sheff Wed assistant v Charlton manager?  I think he may well do.

    Paul Cook has a very good record despite failure at Ipswich.

    I Think it would have to be Chris Powell . He's been in football continuously since he left us with Huddersfield , Spurs U21's  , England and now Sheff Wed no.2 . 

    I doubt he would come back under our circumstances but there's no harm in asking . 
    Would possibly have a good knowledge of current young players from the Spurs job (the CBT type who may be dropping down aged 22, 23), and Championship players from Sheffield Wednesday.

    Fair point!

    I think it's a tough one to know who would be interested, I don't think we'd be that attractive to someone currently managing a club at first team level. Probably looking more towards a young "head coach" but we saw how spectacularly wrong that's gone elsewhere - for every Kieran McKenna or John Mousinho there's a Joe Edwards or Ian Forster.
