Well I think McKenna has gone. A lot of back pages saying that tomorrow. I think Brighton have been in contact with us for a while about him to be honest. After Leifs interview saying he hopes McKenna stays. We have to respect the fact he didn’t leave for Palace mid season, he got the job done.
Who would everyone want as our next manager? Edwards? Potter? Or should we look at the first manager outside of the UK and Ireland in our history? [Post edited 20 May 21:44]

Potter
Moyes
Rodgers. ( did I read he was leaving or I've just made that up in my head) only named him due to previous link with ashton

I think you’re right. Survival has to be the main objective. I was looking forward to swashbuckling Town performances next season with McK but now will take someone who can keep us in it without breaking the bank.
Potter would be ideal but I don’t think he’d do it.
I have no idea. |  |

Someone who can get us playing a similar style, with a team that is more than the sum of its parts.
Someone, who can lead a promotion challenge should the worst happen and not fark off at the first sign of trouble.
Potter turned down Ajax, not coming here.
Ashtons MO is to appoint young upcoming coaches, so assume we might go similar. | | | |

Potter may have turned that job down because of location and the money he's getting
With a big compensation package we may be able to afford him. | |

The problem being that to change style we really would need to make severe changes to the squad. It's been designed and trained to play like we have been doing.
Perhaps easier to find another manager who can fit the style (the question being how well). |  |

What??! Rogers. Jesus.
What’s going on. A week ago we are high as a kite and now McKenna is jumping ship to Brighton of all places.
Joe and Phil adding to the gloom
Welcome to the flipping premiership.
If he had the chance to go to palace last season what not go then if in such a hurry to move on.
Is our model so bad already? [Post edited 21 May 3:40]

We have to play the same style next season or we have no chance at all. | | | |

If Potter stays out of the game too long he risks being ‘forgotten’. He won’t get endless offers, not quality ones anyway. | | | |

Not true. We may lose half of what played that style and the manager who got us playing it.
We most likely lose 18 assists from left back. And we know we need a good 7/8 players coming in and that's just the start.
If it isn't KM. It doesn't have to be a similar manager it just keeps to be one who can make a prem squad and quickly. | |

I've been thinking Carrick could be a good option.
His similar playing style would give us some continuity and I think he potentially has a high ceiling. I'd hate to go back to another journeyman. | | | |

It is true, you can't change how a team has played over night and expect it to go from successful to even more successful. | | | |

No, they're continuing to print speculation that he MIGHT go. That's what they do to sell papers. |  | | |

You will be the first one to complain if we do that and it goes wrong, which it probably will as it means making the players change from something that has made them play the best football in their lives.

Just wanna stay up SB. If that's same style. Different style. Don't care just stay up. | |

Good clubs that are well run with an ethos appoint managers with the same principles,
Otherwise it can get very messy, very quickly if said managers fail and they go through 3 managers with different playing styles. |  | | |

The style matters though as does the manager because if it changes and we don't stay up anyway then we are screwed in the Championship. Changing style doesn't guarantee staying up.
If it happens it needs to be long term thinking rather than a clutch attempt to stay in the PL. If that means we get relegated but are consistent in approach for the next season then that is important.
Just think it needs to be a more sensible approach than "stay up at all costs".
