    Steven Schumacher
    Ryan Lowe 
    Gary Rowett
    Michel Skubala

    Any of them for me.
    Those 3, Alex Neil, Paul Cook, and maybe Chris Powell would be on my list to start to speak to, gauge interest and interview etc if I was the SMT.

    Less sure about Rowett, both Stoke and Millwall fans have said he plays awful football, and we've had enough of that for now!!

    FWIW I think Lowe and Powell would politely decline, not sure on the others.
  • Ryan Lowe was, apparently, loathed by Preston fans at the end, so no thanks.

    Most managers are loathed 'at the end'. That is a common reason why it's 'the end'.
    Stoke cap on Bob, thoughts on Schumacher, Neil, Rowett?

    Appreciate every club/circumstances etc are different but would be interesting!
  • Jon Brady, who we approached last season, has just resigned as Northampton manager

    If (Nathan) Jones goes- I will stop watching Charlton, work on Saturdays, write off this season and come back next season.
  • I think I would go for somebody who speaks good English, but I agree with @Nadou of this parish that we ought to try to get a manager from overseas, or from a distance. A good coach who can see our players objectively and get them playing actual football.
    Which to me the starting point would be getting the ball wide, or to the by line, and then crossing it into the danger area.

    If only it was that easy to turn the addiction on and off.
    True Addick by heart, Addick by nature- I just won't spend a pretty penny travelling up and down the country for would be another assessment period, only for the process to repeat next year

    Jon Brady leaves his job, not sacked, after four years at Northampton.

    Relagated in his first half season when club was already struggling.

    Missed out on automatic promotion next season in dubious circumstances when Bristol Rovers won 7 - 0 and then lost play-offs

    Automatic promotion last year.

    Fighting relegation this year.

    Not a big name so probably not powerful enough to demand too much in terms of his own salery or control over recruitnent so a perfect choice for our ser up.

    *goes on the December prediction thread and changes Northampton to 0*
  • lol, got to laugh at some of the suggestions above, some if not most would not touch us with a barge pole.

    No way our owners are going to pay another club compensation to lure someone away

    Not sure if related but Gary Rowett was at the Burton game, think it could just be he lived locally. 
    Well that’s him scared off then.

    Start from the top. Get rid of Rodwell, Methven and Scott. Then employ an old head as Director of Football to choose a young man as Head Coach/Manager. (Under 40) 

    Some of the best managers at Charlton were at the Valley under the age of 40. Lennie, Curbs, Seed


    Who gets rid of them . Aren’t they the part of the actual behind the scenes set up ? 
    The owners. Who else would get rid of them? 
    Which ones?  . There are more than one set of investors 
    All of them. Who else would would it be?

    Very tough club to manage and I know all fans can be classed as deluded but Stokies win that competition hands down. They have the best owners in  the country - fans of the club and have spent fortunes - and still there are fans on their main forum shouting 'Coates out!' I accept bias because they are friends, but we could only dream of having owners like the Coates.

    Of those managers - Neil and Schumacher could possibly do a decent job for us. Not Rowett.
    Interesting, cheers!

    I know Sunderland fans really rated Alex Neil whilst obviously being pissed off with the way he left.

    Would be interesting to know if we chose Jones over him or he didn't want the job if he was interviewed last time.
  • Is Alex Neil currently available? Viewed from a distance he has always seemed to me to be a good manager who has been able to adapt to different circumstances.

    Been available for a year since leaving Stoke.

    Doesn't mean he'd want the job of course!

  • Chris Powell is on record as saying publicly, he definitely will not take another team managers job. 
    Simple, make him director of football and have Perace as the manager. What Powell was best at anyway was identifying and bringing in decent players.

    If that is the case hire Alex Dyer or Jason Euell as head coach

    If properly funded, Bowyer. It's a risk but there's more upside with him than most of the alternatives. He had the ability to spot a player, coach them on and put out teams playing exciting attacking football before the rug was pulled from under him (thanks Roland). There can't be many players left who he managed so it would be a clean slate all round.
  • Same old situation, same old outcome and the same names being banded about. 10 months ago the name that was well thought of was Nathan Jones. 
    I fee like we need to think outside the box and really implement a fresh start.

    Kieran McKenna & Joe Edwards both had a deep understanding of big club experience and were around the inner workings of clubs striving for elite performance. I know it didn’t work out for Joe at Millwall but one thing that stuck out to me was his contact book. McKenna has been fantastic in every aspect. He came into Ipswich with a 1.98 PPG from Utd U18’s. 

    I really like what Elliott is doing, plays a decent brand of football but is coming from Gateshead and now Crawley, hardly big club elite mentality’s. 
    Moore seems to do the rounds in Yorkshire or stay as close as possible to it, how likely is it he would move down south?

    We need something fresh, modern, attacking biased with an elite mentality honed in an elite environment with a documented success.

    Curbishley and Gritt appointed because we could not afford anyone else, Bowyer and Powell no managerial experience, did ok!

    That’s definitely one way we could go, but our squad is so far away from one that would work with that kind of manager. So this approach would be back to square one, have to recruit for a new style, and probably 2 years minimum before we really see any substantial results. I think the owners and a lot of fans will want quicker results 

    I think it’s more likely they go with a proven manager like an Alex Neil or Darren Moore, who have a couple of promotions on the CV, but are also adaptable enough to mostly work with what he’s been given but add a few missing pieces, rather than tear it up and start again 

    I don’t think Jones will get sacked anyway, but if it did come to it, I really can’t see them going for a long term project type manager with a modern style of play, they just won’t have the patience for it

    After watching that game, he decided that having dinner with the mother-in-law was a lesser evil.

    Stoke's owners are stuffed by the Financial Fair Play rules in the Championship. The irony being that if they got relegated to L1, they could then do a Birmingham and splash the cash.

    I know - they won't break the rules either.

    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. 


    If there is a manager who can break the cycle, and I am not talking about sleep walking into League Two, I would back another manager coming in, but there is no plan is there (and this is why we have Jones in the first place).

    If you ask me I'd rather of kept Jackson (even if we got relegated)- then he could built a team, with Euell, and then we come back up gradually.
