Whilst Allardyce has identified a few things we all knew about such as the squad not good enough, the defence is weak and we do not have the technical ability to compete.

I do think he might be someone the new Board could talk to if nothing else but to get his opinions what the club needs to do.

I would not have him as our Manager but he might offer some insight.

He likes to play a defensive structure with a kick upfield for the CF to hold the ball and the midfielders or number 10 to get into the box.

His choice was limited hence the stuffing we rightly deserved yesterday.

Out of the 15 or was it 16 who got on the pitch yesterday I would only keep Forshaw, Wober and Gnonto.

The Sampdoria owner has rejected Radz's offer

This is the perfect opportunity to rebuild and build an identity. I'd listen to Sam's feedback, but that's all. We need a young(ish), progressive manager who can take us forward and develop our young players.



The players have been told to let Kinnear know if they want to stay by the end of today, so I expect the exodus to begin this week. Harrison has interest from Villa and West Ham amongst others, so he looks to be th first out the door.



Talksport reported earlier that the takeover should be completed within the next 2 weeks

ideal time to have a big reset. I'd expect 90% to go and I won't be sorry to see them go either.

the right manager and D.O.F is vital. a huge call

Pity we cannot trust the young lads mixed with some old heads like the Golden generation at the Rhinos.

Drameh, Cresswell, Monteiro, Wober

Gnonto, Adams, Forshaw, Dallas

Perkins, Joseph



With the likes of Mullen, Hjelde, Gray, Gyabi, Bate, Sinesterra, Sumerville, Geldhart, Greenwood .

Gyokeres would be my choice of a signing to go with maybe an experienced CH.

cresswell/wober is as good a pairing as you get in the championship.

dramah is going.

2 full backs needed.



Chris wilder linked this morning. wouldn't be a bad appointment imo

Be a shame if Drameh leaves considering he was player of the year at Cardiff followed by a promotion at Luton.

And when you compare him with our current 2 RB`s he is imo the better of the 3 especially in the Championship.

How about Mark Robins as our next manager?

thought about him but no. not for me

Of the managers in the championship, I'd consider:

Corberan (WBA)

Carrick (Boro)

McKenna (Ipswich)



I really hope we don't go for Allerdyce or Viera



The championship line up next season:



Birmingham

Blackburn

Bristol City

Cardiff

Coventry

Hudds

Hull

Ipswich

Leeds

Leicester

M’Boro

Millwall

Norwich

Plymouth

Preston

QPR

Rotherham

Saints

Sunderland

Stoke

Swans

Watford

WBA

Wednesday



Getting promoted will be difficult. It looks like the strongest Championship for a few years

I think we will do ok dependent on who is in charge. I have a feeling it’ll be Potter or Rodgers

I'm not very confident, to be honest. No owners, no DOF, no manager, and a threadbare squad. 10 weeks to get it sorted. It's our biggest summer in years.
