Owners have gone on record as saying they'd love to appoint a female manager. Obviously very succesful and would be a eye catching appointment but also a risk....

They can appoint Barney the purple dinosaur for all I care as long as we get promoted.

What is the risk? I only care about ability to do the job.

She's been my pick from the start and I'm surprised she's not been on any of the betting sites.

Though I can't see it happening.

Untested in the mens game is the risk!

Why? Are the rules / philosophies different? Doesn't she have UEFA coaching badges, not men's / women's coaching badges?

Given we're only a League 1 club, it might be the perfect appointment for her.

It's the same game.

Hasn't she just won the treble with them? Don't think she would come to be honest.

Shes gone on record as saying a L1 mens club job is not a step up.

I dont think she would take the job.

Also its a big risk at this moment in time. More likely the owners would look at it if Cook had left on a high.

I dont have a problem with it! I think it could be a great appointment for both parties but as with anything that is a FIRST - its a risk!

Not really a risk. If she is the best candidate then she should be offered the job.

This is 2021 and I am in my late 60's - I thought it would be people of my age who would query it.

You could say that about a manager in the National League.

In all fairness, over the past decade 'tried and tested in the men's game' hasn't served us particularly well.

Yes and if they had just won a domestic trouble they would likely be being talked about for a league one job...

She's clearly very intelligent (knows business, science, football and the outside world) and must possess "man" management skills. A win rate of 68% too.

Would you prefer a geezer who played professionally for years and has a network of mates?. There would be no baggage if she came in.

The more I think about it the more I like it.

We've already had one dinosaur and he told us to F Off when we went 1-0 up at Carrow Road. Not for me.

Marshalls Mullet is *very* interested in women's football and other sports. Especially disparaging it for some odd reason.

How well does she know L1? would be my question.

No problem if she's actually best person for the job & can make a case for that at interview, but as someone else said, "first" to do anything is a risk. She'd get a lot of stick from misogynists, esp from other clubs' visiting fans & if on a poor run; and a lot of media attention. Does she have the psychological strength to handle all that?

If the answer to all the above is "yes" then fine by me - except the timing doesn't feel right, this doesn't seem a good time in our history to be going out on a limb - we need stabilising and steady improvement more than going out on a limb.

From the point of view of ITFC back in the headlines making history in a good way though - great! and of course Gamechanger would love that. Unless it all went tits up, obvs ...

I think Ashton was asked about it and he said he wouldn't have a problem with it.

Not sure anyone said they would love to as if it's an actual goal of theirs.
