Getting well bored of this now.

Roots Hall's Brexit - lots of hot air, no substance, nothing happening, and the fear that the final choice will be a naff one (Milligan/Waddock combo) that won't solve anything

Adam and Tilly want the job as a combo, yes there are risks but this has a lot more going for it than the other options seemingly out there

Sort it in time for Sat Ron
 
Of course, he has no baggage and will be cheap. I can't understand why people are so against him, Tilson had shown zero management skills before he was appointed caretaker.

I also think maybe Milligan has realised that Lg1 is a step too far at his age physically, you can see he has the brain but the legs can't keep up.

Personally I think it would be a good appointment.
Milligan, seriously, has been awful in every performance I have seen, has shown zero leadership qualities. Has no coaching experience whatsoever, no affiliation with the club, other than coming here as an inept player....would be the most underwhelming appointment ever.

He can’t lead the team as a captain, let alone as a manager!
 
Surprised no one has mentioned another ex Southend legend Rob Newman!!
Just checked Wikipedia and now head of Man City’s scouting academy.
 
Are we maybe missing the obvious here?

There is one chap in the current first team coaching staff that most players and fans think is doing well?

Just putting it out there but I think it's time for a foreign manager maybe?
 
Gareth Ainsworth has issued a statement that really resembles a 'come and get me' undertone in regards to be being linked to Lincoln.

He wants to manage a team with aspirations for the championship. I know people scoff at it, but Ron genuinely has aspirations to get to the championship. Compared to Wycombe, we pay higher wages to both the players and the manager. Whilst I can see our current status looks bad, we have to remember that we are only 7 games in. Plymouth were bottom at Christmas the other year and nearly reached the playoffs. With the right manager, anything can happen. Financially speaking, I do think we are a step up on Wycombe. He was talking about how they reach the financial ceiling.

It will never happen, but I'd love to get him in. I've always wanted him to come to us. He has always shown us nothing but respect when we've visited Adams Park.

Surely something has to be announced tomorrow - even if only that Waddock is in charge for Saturday pending an appointment.

Todorov? You're not serious are you? I've heard the players aren't too impressed, and I've not seen any fans on here say he's doing a good job. So where did you get most players and fans from?
 
If it was going to be someone already at the Club you would think an announcement would have already been made.

You obviously didn’t see the shooting practice/ warm up at Orient, absolutely shocking
 
What about the ‘Ainsworth’ rumour ? I’m The Wycombe site there are a few that think he’s on his way to us ( all forum talk I know) but isn’t he best buddies with Waddack ( or what ever our number 2 is called )

In relation to toderov genuinely where has it been made known either way if the packers like him or not ?? Genuine question, surely some of this chat has got to be backed up
