BBC reporting that the club hope to appoint an interim manager until the end of the season and then appoint a full time manager. They state it won’t be fletcher but that he’s in charge for Burnley. Any ideas?
05 Jan 2026 12:49:35
Michael Carrick maybe, or someone connected to the club, with some sort of history.
05 Jan 2026 12:53:53
Big Sam will make sure we stay up.
05 Jan 2026 13:08:01
If they are waiting until end of season then Tuchel comes to mind.
05 Jan 2026 13:10:59
Rathcliffe, Omar and Wilcox clearly made this decision based on emotion as we clearly had no plan in place.
Binning this season off in January to focus on next year is absolutely ludicrous from the board considering Ashworth left because of his concerns for Amorim and his 3-4-3.
I'm not saying Amorim was the right man, but surely you have more of a plan than "give it to Ole for the rest of the season".
Onto that, Ole (PTSD incoming) Carrick, Ruud or Blanc. Maybe Fletcher wins the next 2 and gets some joy at City and Arsenal and stays. We've seen this movie before and it doesn't end well.
I hope you're all doing well considering.

Tuchel? ????
Noooo!
05 Jan 2026 13:22:53
OGS will do again.
05 Jan 2026 13:25:33
End of season I agreed red man, he will be no.1 choice. Poch maybe a close second.
If they move now, Glasner.
My choice, would be Emery.
05 Jan 2026 13:37:34
Bring Keano in…that would be pure cinema ?.
05 Jan 2026 13:38:50
Can only imagine that would go down swell with the rest of Ingerland if Tuchel took some time off preparing for the world cup to take charge of Manchester United on an interim basis lol.
05 Jan 2026 13:41:08
Southgate to enter through the OT gate.
05 Jan 2026 14:03:11
Tichel after World Cup is a good shout.
05 Jan 2026 14:05:42
Is it not Fletcher until the end of the season?
05 Jan 2026 14:18:24
I think it’ll be Tuchel after the Word cup too. The club needs a big personality and figurehead to be in charge.
That or they go to Xavi.
05 Jan 2026 15:50:37
Maresca as interim is probably what they're exploring.
05 Jan 2026 16:16:04
Tuchel left Chelsea because he clashed with the management over transfers and squad formation, sound familiar.
Wilcox going to sit down and have a Friday afternoon chat with Tuchel and tell him about formations, not a chance.
It just sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.
05 Jan 2026 16:56:35
Klopp. Would piss the scousers off even more than us winning the league!
Yes I know it won’t happen.
05 Jan 2026 19:11:16
First of all I couldn’t disagree more with the club sacking Amorim. I believe he was the man to change us given time and getting in players he wanted. For the club to ignore the need for a dm in the summer over an Additional number 10 was baffling and also predictable.
Knowing how our club is run they will look to make an appointment on the interim that will in their eyes silence any possible backlash and will get someone in the fans would support and also more importantly someone the media won’t go after ie Gary Neville.
We know how silent he was when OGS was in the hot seat.
05 Jan 2026 19:31:05
twenty, if they got Neville in, I think I’d turn my back on the club and never attend another match. Can’t stand the snivelling little worm.
05 Jan 2026 20:22:14
Hope it’s not tuchel, plays such boring football.
Needs to be someone that plays attacking football. I’m not an expert on the manager market so no clue who they will go for.
Glasner seems to be the favourite for the summer. But that’s more 3 at the back football. So not my choice.
I’d try and get Emery from Villla. Or maybe Xavi.
05 Jan 2026 21:23:28
2toms he’s a rat ?
No I wasn’t suggesting that but they will prob get someone in who g Neville won’t say anything against as it will be an ex team mate. Amorim said in his last press conference that if people can’t handle gnev criticism we need to change club.
It was clearly affecting the Wilcox’s and berradas.
Gnev is happy to spout on about Amorim but never the owners strange that.
06 Jan 2026 12:54:31
Wilcox will be next out the door.
06 Jan 2026 18:10:45
I hope so Eric, well actually I hope it is Mainoo, then Wilcox then.
Shaw
Maguire
Casemiro
Dalot
Ugarte
Dorgu
Bayindir
Sesko
Amass
Mount
Etc etc
This squad needs tearing apart.
