Jose Mourinho or Sir Alex Ferguson

Supporting DARLO might be a heartache but it's a heartache I chose to have.

That's hilarious i wish i'd thought of that.

A little more realistic would be Peter Jackson or Stuart Gray but at the minute we're stuck with Colin Todd so lets start this conversation again if he ever departs.

Looks as though Penney and Gray will be available pretty soon. Oldham in the drop zone and fans calling for his head. :twisted:

i dont think it will happen, but if penney does get sacked then i love it if he returned, its very doubtful, but we could always hope.

If I'm right, I think that Raj was quoted as saying a few months ago that Fleming would be his choice as manager.

So you'd rather have Peter Jackson or Stuart Gray who've both been sacked for being shite despite being in control at their clubs for well over a season or more? Yet you'll only give Todd 7 games? :roll:

Although, we've had a very poor start to the season, its not a suprise considering all the upheaval we had to endure during the summer. Todd's had to try and build a squad from scratch and has done well to bring in some of the players we have, BUT things do need to improve very soon otherwise we may well need a new manager to try and preserve our league status.

My choice though it may well be a long shot would be Paul Jewell. :idea:
"The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!"

To be honest i'm trying to keep the suggestions realistic and those two are examples, but yeah, i would have them over Todd. We wouldn't be flush with willing candidates in the current situation would we?

P.s. both have won games too.

How about Ian Bogie at Gateshead? Good young manager who could bring a bit more energy to the club. He's had two succesive promotions to get them into the conference with a squad of local lads.

A lot of decent managers just want to get back into work so I'd also throw in...
Simon Davey - just sacked by Barnsley after doing well initially with them and he's played for us on loan in the past.
Stan Ternant - from the north-east and knows the lower leagues well.
Ronnie Moore - we'd be doomed to eyeball-bleeding long-ball hell, but it seems to work for him and gets results.

Absolutely. I'd much prefer a young gun than an old hat.

I'd like to see Stan Ternent at Darlo, loads of experience in the lower leagues. Always had a lot of time for him.

Dave Hodgson
Stan Tennant (not sure I like him)
Ronnie Moore (don't like his football)
Steve Cotterill
are all good shouts. They would all keep us up and with the second two I think we could even progress next season. Ian Bogie would be a bit of a risk but at least it would be a sensible one.

How can Tennant and Moore be good shouts if you've just admitted you don't like either of them? Idiot.

Has there been a release of hallucinogenic drugs in the Darlington area? John Barnes? FFS the man can barely manage to take a dump let alone manage a football team. FFS i will let off this Hardy because he is clearly about 12 but come on John Barnes give your head a shake. Are we taking about the same John Barnes who failed at Celtic and is failing still and Tranmere? ....................................................................... :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :thumbdown: :thumbdown:

Some of the other names mentioned - MY GOD WAKE UP AND FACE THE REAL WORLD. We are skint, in the brown stuff and no even quater decent manager would touch us!

I know lets see if Fabio Cappello fancies a crack at it! Jesus Christ Ray!

RH79 get a grip man. I've already said it was intended as a joke (ie he is the only manager in the league worse than Todd)

Don't come on here giving it the big'un you little punk.
