The next Rovers manager

He ain't coming here surely. Another poor manager not worthy of the Rovers
He has too much honesty to come here
Good enough? Who knows

I very rarely join a debate on our next manager - because whoever it is will get my support (certainly to start with)
A big percentage want Farke (I would be delighted too) but what's to say he will work with our limitations, lack of communication and the players he would inherit - By Xmas the fans could be calling for his head
Its a lottery, but for me, I would like a Bowyer or Newell type who tell it like it is and at least have the humility to hold their hand up when they FU.
Very unlike our outgoing manager

Lee Bowyer isn't good enough for this game.

We don't know what the budget will be and on the players he is inherit is good championship that need about 6 to 8 quality signings to make us into a promotion side if that's going to be aim instead of plodding on in mid table championship.

We want a head coach so Farke, Carvalhal, Munoz fit the bill for me.

I can think of quite a few that fit the bill
But without all the relevant information its a pointless exercise (imo) Unless Waggott reads MBs for tips and inspirations (which I suspect he probably does - I would)

Carvalhal is leaving Braga and looking for a new project

I see the head coach role here better suits to foreign head coach who is used to working in such a structure with Sporting Director would be better for us. So I would be looking at people like Daniel Farke, Carlos Carvalhal, Xisco Munoz, Maybe Diego Martinez or Thomas Christiansen. Maybe they are some British options out there like Lee Johnson or Michael Carrick or maybe Liverpool under 23 head coach Barry Lewtas.

For the Sporting Director role I would be looking at Norwich's Stuart Webber or Luke Dowling or Steve Hitchen. Rumours that Stuart Webber will be leaving Norwich shortly.

Our man should be Daniel Farke or Carlos Carvalhal as next head coach.

I don't see Ainsworth being happy in head coach role

I don't think Ainsworth would come if Wycombe get promoted, think he would if they don't.

I'm doubtful on Farke generally, big step down in the resources he had at Norwich compared to here. I could see him as a target for Leeds if they go down, or maybe West Brom.

Liam Manning looks a decent young manager. Of the other current favourites Carrick and Ferguson are complete unknowns, and Grayson would be a step down from Mowbray.

I only see Carvahal as equivalent to Mowbray myself, but that's good enough for me.
