Line up last Saturday clearly showed Bassey does not want the job

I know one of the criteria will be a plan to get us out of this mess and stay up. That discounts Bassey as far as I'm concerned.

Three goals in one game, blimey.

Home to Rotherham last season

Rotherham in the game before we started Plymouth's play off run wasn't it?

Lyle got a hat-trick fairly late on in his time with us, can't remember who it was against but I think it was at KM

This Cheltenham goalscorer looks useful could we sign him in January?

I thought bassey said in league paper at the weekend he did not want the job.

If Bassey gets the job what was the point of getting rid of Ardley. I think if he did get the job a lot of people won't be going back for a while. Saturday's team selection was enough to prove that. He shouldn't even have be interviewed for the job

Clearly Bassey's mates are lumping on him after his interview today. He's now 4/1

OI ...no and certainly not when playing right of a front three

Bassesy might be a hard sell as I think a number of people feel he was part of the problem and his team selction and recent I/Vs suggest that he may not offer a radically different approach to NA.

Whether its the Manager or an assistant, we desperately need an attacking coach.

Second for LTB, did he ever get a hat-trick when with us?

if Downes gets the gig would it be bad if Chris Perry was his assistant. I know Perry was a defender but Downs was a midfielder

I understand that Bassey is being seriously considered for the role with our lack of money being a factor in the reasoning (despite the mutual agreement, we still need to pay Ardley and Cox off).

Same as not betting on a horse race until all the runners are known, the list of applicants the same (unknown), l wouldn't hazzard aguess as to who might get the manager's gig. Obviouly, there have been various names mentioned on here, but whether they've even applied is debatable. One or two names people have mentioned wouldn't make my own shortlist, but my opinion counts for nowt, same as al the rest of you.

Always good to know KD will outdo you in racial stereotyping.

Why didn’t Ray’s Silent Auction post get a sticky?

Full house at stadium MK. The frenzy has begun............ Hold on its Brazil V Cameroon!

Can't think of any youngsters Arsenal have brought through to be honest sonce Wilshere and they sacked him off

Wu, Downs working in India is not unusual as many managers have worked abroad, Arsene Wenger in Japan springs to mind and his appointment at arsenal didn't go too badly for the first few years

Using a scientific method, of likelihood of applying (based on experience, availability, location etc) and suitability (club criteria), my list comes out as [Link]

I'm at Slough Tn v Sutton Utd, 0-1 @ HT. Slough's new ground is pretty good and catering facilities and bar top notch. Note they even have a decent local beer (Rebellion - geddit?) on tap.
