Why not Dyer as manager with gorgeous Mick as a real Director of Football?
Burley was seen as the dream ticket but he has been out of the game a long time. We know Mick is the masterful magician and he can work with Marcus. Kieron can learn off the master |  |

....I think it's too early for Dyer as manager.
How about Mick as DoF and Mick as manager.
Just a thought. |  |

Gerrard, Lampard, Parker. Burley was 38 when he took over here, KD is 42 this year. |  |

Think we're beneath Mick now if we're being brutally honest. |  |

I'll keep pushing Tommy Wright, look what he did at st Johnstone, yes I know its Scotland but I think he worked wondered.
KD, Shefqui would be a big risk, not that I'd be against either.... Burley had at least cut his teeth a little at Col U before moving here. Stein could still be thrown in the mix.
Pulis would be back to Micks style but would probabaly get us back up... see Warnock decided to stick around at Borough maybe we should have grabbed him when he had the chance.
Not many names that would get me excited. |  |

Mick wouldn’t come back and some fans will protest against that idea even now. He is the past and he needs to stay there. |  |

I agree...nothing really to lose in giving KD a go. I would prefer to see George as a DOF. [Post edited 1 Sep 2020 18:05]

Mick was treated appallingly by (large) elements of our fanbase. There is no way he will come back. And who could blame him? |  |

He wouldnt. No chance.
How about this as semi serious even if massively unlikely.
Burley - DoF
Magilton - Manager
Dyer - Assistant Manager
Anyone? | |

What has Dyer done remotely in first team managerial roles. He hasn’t even been in the back room staff of a first team job yet.
Let him go and learn the craft first, and one day I hope he manages us, I really do. |  |

I don’t think we’re getting a DoF, either because Marcus doesn’t understand the need (Harry’s probably telling him it’s forrin nonsense) and likes getting involved in transfers etc. (It’s been going so well since he became more hands on...) or because he won’t pay a high salary to another football expert and only sees a need for a general manager. He seems to want his first team coach to manage the entire sporting side of the club from top to bottom and for many candidates these days, that seems to be far too big for them as it’s not the way the game is structured now. Mick worked for him for so long because he could do all of those things but left a massive void when he left - as he did in every other job he’s vacated. |  |

What had Scott Parker done before switching from Fulham U23 coach to managing Fulham to the PL ( apart from applying and not getting the job here ) | | | |

A DoF generally sets the style of play throughout the club, from the youngsters to the first team. It is a good thing for the club to do that so players can move seamlessly up the groups.
For all that Mick did, saving us from relegation, keeping an underfunded squad reasonably competitive and even dragging it into the play-offs, I wouldn't want Mick's style to be Town's style for years to come. |  |

Lampard hadn't done a lot either, or Gerrard. | |

This is a more senisble option. |  |

....and was then assistant 1st team coach at Fulham under both Jokanovic and Ranieri.
He was then caretaker manager, before being made full time manager.
A natural progression. | |

Thats easy
Bloots as DOF and you (Bluefish) as first team coach
Phil can be the press guy
Hoppy can do all the pouncey art stuff
Facters can be the club historian
Fixed can be youth team scout
Romers can help with running training
Sitters can look after the kit
what on earth could go wrong |  |

The jobs of Fulham and Ipswich are very very different. Parker was initially only caretaker as well. [Post edited 2 Sep 2020 9:12]
