Anyone think Ashton's 'extensive search'... 20:26 - Dec 5 with 2455 views | OriginalMarkyP | ...will be about as extensive as the search you have for your three-year-old when playing hide and seek? Oh, well he isn't here... And, he isn't over there... Nope, not under the table... Now where he could he be??? Oh look, BEHIND THE CURTAIN! There you are!! | |

I sincerely hope not. Has achieved nothing as manager to believe he would be successful. League 2 play-off semi final defeat I believe is his biggest managerial achievement. I love JM, and loved him as player, but this isn’t the job for him. [Post edited 5 Dec 2021 20:30]

Not a chance. Well, tbf, who knows! But I’d imagine it’ll be somehow slightly higher profile. Of a stop gap (like McGreal or Colin). | | | |

I'm not fully expecting it but the timing of his appointment and ashton's comment about no-one being lined up suggests a plan to give him a bit of time to prove himself. I hope it works out. | |

I think McGreal interim. New man announced to coincide with the owners coming over for #PackoutPR He then gets the January transfer window. Never going to give a window to an interim manager. Think it might be Yallop. Not sure I want Yallop. | |

Play offs are not completely out of the question. That's why they acted now...gives an incoming an opportunity of rescuing the season. | |

I certainly don’t think he’s joined to assist the u23’s long term, that’s for sure. My hope is that it was a ‘look, come in and cover on an interim basis when we move PC on, and we’ll take it from there’ type agreement, which I imagine it was. I would anticipate he’ll take charge in the short term which will effectively act like a trial period, with a search ongoing concurrently. I don’t really want him, his style is a touch basic, but i guess if he’s made permanent then by definition he must’ve done well as interim, which of course would be good. Feels a bit of a mess to me. Might as well have given Cook Charlton and Wigan, lined someone up and got them in a week tomorrow in time for the POPR games if that’s the route we’re going down. That would suggest they might see McGreal as having the potential to go perm. | |

how can the season be dead? we're seven points off the top 6 with more than half the season to go apparently we have the league's strongest squad, which any old fool can instantly galvanise into a winning machine and we're in the hat for the fa cup 3rd round for the first time in 4 years! | |

I doubt it, and certainly hope not. If the owners and Ashton are true to form they’ll be aiming high, and probably for someone with a Bristol City connection! | |

I wonder if he will be deemed a little risky due to him having a tumour removed earlier on this year. I might be way off but it must be a slight concern even though he's had the all clear. Im not totally enamoured with that appointment if it does come to pass. | | | |

Not sure about Yallop, but the rest is likely to be spot on. Tho we might be surprised by someone else as caretaker (Dyer? Klug?). | |

How about Nigel Pearson? He recruited him at Bristol City. Perhaps it was lined up a few months ago? I love a completely baseless conspiracy theory! | | | |

That wasn't my point. My point was Ashton knows exactly who he's replacing Cook with before he even got rid of him. The 'extensive search' is just media speak bollox. The search isn't being started, it's already been done. | |

In that case, no need for mcgreal as a caretaker. New manager announced monday. I think ashton might actually be semi-genuine. The mcgreal appointment is surely as a caretaker manager. | |
