Who should be our next manager?

[Westcliff DGS]

I see the Cowleys are unemployed as of this lunchtime

Both or Just Danny Cowley? I am assuming both

Yes both of them

 

[Westcliff DGS]

Yes both of them

Okie thanks. Sky Sports website just said Danny

Shockingly bad decision from Huddersfield.

They say they like a challenge.......

 

[Leicester Shrimper]

Think the Cowley brothers would be a great fit at Southend.

 

[BasildonShrimp]

Not many reasons why they shouldn't have a crack. Unless they want their reputation well and truly trashed within a few months.

 

[Lincoln Shrimp]

Get them in now. I always wondered why they didn't move their families to Huddersfield. That was certainly the plan when they left Lincoln.
They both love a "project". Can Ron convince them with plans for the new stadium?!
Highly unlikely but a return to their Essex roots might be tempting.
Although they were both on huge wages at Huddersfield though (£750k each per season), money never had been their motivating factor.

Apparently Sky are suggesting Nigel Pearson also sacked,cant see him at RH

For us maybe but I see no reason why they'd want to come here. Everyone, including their own fans, seem baffled that they've been sacked given that Huddersfield were odds on favourites for relegation when they took over, they've overachieved by keeping them up. i don't think their stock will have fallen so much from this that they'd need to consider dropping into League 2.

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Without delving back, I thought there were issues as to why they'd never come here?

Because we’re a shambles ?

I may be wrong but I thought it was something more personal than that

 

[Special Blue]

I think you are right, I seem to recall they don't like us for some reason.

 

[Lincoln Shrimp]

Nicky Cowley spoke very well of Ron when I spoke to him in my local coop 18 months ago!
Both West Ham fans but that wouldn't bother me one bit.

 

[Westcliff DGS]

Copley’s wont be at Southend, suspect Bristol City may be interested

 

[overseas shrimper]

Anybody thinking there's a snowball's chance in hell that the Cowley brothers would come to our club, in the state it's in and work with our club's emperor (dropping to L2) is... with all due respect... deluded.

Did we ever loan them any players when they were managing in non-league? Maybe they had a run in with Ron at some point.

Well, if they are OK with Ron and are looking for a challenge.............I wouldn't say no! They've certainly proved themselves in League Two and of course, if things went tits up next season they got Lincoln out of the National League! Having said that, I really don't believe, for a minute, that it will happen.

 

[Chairman Trigg]

Five minutes of looking at this site and the lure of the Essex Riveria could just tip the balance in our favour
