Warnock on a short-term contract immediately to the end of the season made the most sense. Then lots of options in the summer (whatever league we're in).

But if we faff around for a couple more weeks it probably won't matter anymore - there wouldn't really be much point even trying for the playoffs after a few more defeats, and then I've no clue what the best approach is - if we hire someone like Harris now we'll likely muddle along for the rest of the season and end up sacking him in October/November next season.

John Terry was in the article, not under consideration. You'd guess anyone who is publicly telling people they want it - ie. Neil Harris and dear old Shefki - is not very high up our list (you'd be in talks, not briefing the media).

I'm pretty sure they'll want to appoint someone before Sunderland - perhaps even have them managing the team for the first time on the 18th.

Thanks - have updated. Maybe Pearson? Manager in a job from a higher level (Ashton said we've received applications of that ilk) who has worked with him before.

Garry Monk hasn’t been mentioned

Probably for good reason

Edit: I feel like Slavisa Jokanovic isn’t a terrible target either

not impossible. I've heard Antony Barry and Michael Carrick mentioned too.

I hope someone comes along that noone expects. People are already writing off Harris, despite having had a decent career as manager thus far. So, I don't think that leaves many who have the ability to please the masses.

Jack Ross is absolutely someone who Ashton should be wining and dining right now IMHO.

A few years ago, I’d have been worried about Pearson. Even with him doing a pretty decent job setting up Leicester for their Premiership win.

But I’ve heard him talk since (on the Don’t Tell Me The Score podcast) and he’s a much more thoughtful, sensitive and progressive person than his media persona. Basically, I think he hates the media. And a few like Phil excepted, that’s generally fair enough.

I guess it's diffiecult as most managers out of a job would have ended on failure - that's why the likes of Robinson are attractive; they've been relatively successful where they are and still in a post. Ross certainly ended up in a bad run of form for Hibs and didn't hit the heights expected with Sunderland at this level.
