Realistic McKenna replacements? 15:05 - Nov 3 with 6561 viewsChampionsofInnsbruck

I don't know if this one has been done before, and obviously this is just "for fun" speculation and I am not assuming he is going to leave but lets say the worst does happen and say Manchester United swoop in, who do we get?

Some names for me would be:
Mark Robins (Coventry)
Nigel Clough (Mansfield)
Dave Challinor (Stockport)
Steven Schumacher (Plymouth)
Michael Carrick (Middlesborough)
Liam Manning (Oxford)
Darren Moore (Huddersfield)

I have included a couple of people in there that may be unexpected, such as Clough, the job Clough has done at both Burton and Mansfield suggests he's a good manager despite never really doing it in the Championship, Challinor has been superb at Stockport, Manning has had a good record in the lower leagues and obviously knows the club and stylistically would match what we're doing now.

Carrick is probably the least realistic target but you'd hope he could slot into our system with our existing coaches. Robins is a manager I really rate and you can't ignore the work Schumacher has done at Plymouth either. Darren Moore although stylistically isn't the best suited, I do think he's a good manager and deserves a crack with a decent club.

I think we'd be looking at a similar appointment to Mckenna. Young prem couch looking to manage.

People coming in just to abuse the OP... Sigh.

There's nothing negative in the post. It's a valid, longterm hypothetical for a discussion.


As if. 2nd in the league. 9 points clear. Game in hand. And they continue to find negative things to post about. How you are being duped into thinking this is a genuine post is beyond me.

As soon as this nonsense is up, it's time to be the victim. Had enough. Div listing them. Let me know when they get banned for taking it too far.

Sorry Rob, but there's so much absolutely ghastly sh1t going on in the world, and the one bright spot generally for ITFC fans (outside of family stuff) is the way KM has us playing so brilliantly after 13-14 years of dross.

For someone to, not just once but several times now, puncture that & deliberately spoil our joy & try to turn the mood back to negativity & depression, is actually quite a serious matter I think in terms of the mental health of board members generally.

But this thread is actually fine... It's a "When someone comes for Mckenna" if anything.

Disagreeing is fine but the way some people go at people with 'hot takes'... Frimmers gets it in the neck the same way.

I can't be arsed with this place any more.

Have fun everyone. Let's hope for promotion.

Sorry to lose you as you're usually a great poster, but I find it rather ironic that you said "have fun everyone".

That's exactly what were doing, football-wise, till the OP decided to puncture it with a(nother) post implying that the fun will be short-lived because KM's likely to be off. The OP's planting of negative suggestions, Derren Brown style, is quite insidious.

Where is your proof hes a Norwich supporter? If you are going to make these claims you have to back them up. Trying to use lies to defame people is a form of bullying so either apologise or prove it.

I suggest this thread is pulled. When I see words like bullying, harassment, stalking, shut up and abuse is reported by the OP when it isn’t warranted it is both wrong and makes the thread even more pointless than the opening post already reads.

Before the opening poster concerned says I am bullying, harassing etc, I am not. I am offering an opinion. I am perfectly entitled to do this as that’s what a forum is for. He doesn’t need to respond as I’ll now put him on ignore. I hate doing that as it can destroy the integrity of a thread but there it is.

Just a view.

Not sure why this got so many downvotes, is it really that big of a deal? It's a realistic discussion which will need to be had at some point, unfortunately...

Can't believe people can still be arsed to argue with strangers over the internet, let alone ITFC fans.

What's the point of it though? It's like some tit popping up straight after full time when we've won and posting "guys, just wondering precisely how you reckon we'll all die when climate change destroys the earth?" Can we not just revel in having some good stuff happening around Town for the first time in god knows how long? Or at least not bring down those who are?

Hear, hear you're one of the great ones Rob! In fact I positively refuse to lose you permanently on account of this mindless thread. And I agree with you that the OP's post as a standalone contribution doesn't merit some of the responses it's received. I think it's very possible for us to discuss such topics without fomenting pessimism or harming the mental health of fellow users, but sensitivity is key and even more so for users with such a chequered posting past. I can't criticize people for responding with the OP's perceived agenda and previous behaviour in the forefront of their minds, best condensed in Gav's heartfelt plea for it to stop. The opening three lines needed to be worded very differently for this thread to have taken a different course, and I've no doubt many believe the course it took is the one that was originally intended.

"It's a realistic discussion which will need to be had at some point, unfortunately..."

Yes, in maybe 3 years' time (or further away I hope) - there's zero need to repeatedly puncture everyone's euphoric mood right now, whilst we're riding the crest of a wave for the first time in over 20 years.

"Can't believe people can still be arsed to argue with strangers over the internet, let alone ITFC fans".

Yet that's exactly what you're doing yourself. If you don't want to join in discussions including inevitable disagreements with other ITFC fans on the primary *fans' forum* which is used by people all over the world, the majority of whom are strangers to each other, then you know what to do.

"as a standalone contribution".

The problem is that it isn't a standalone - it's just the latest one of numerous similar posts/threads over the past 3(?) weeks or so, and people are now understandably fed up with the number of tedious repetitions sprouting up.

Indeed they've been so frequent, and the OP of this one is so frequently on here, that on reflection I've come to the conclusion that his supposedly innocent "I don't know if this one has been done before" claim is fake, and that he was just trolling in starting this thread.
