What a great comment.
Was Shanks' record any better, or Paisley or Kenny or Evans?
Apparently those lads were darn lucky to get a job eh?
I know its easy to post on a forum, but selecting a manager requires a slightly more sophisticated approach otherwise no managers would ever filter thru to the top clubs would they?

He looks a very promising up and coming manager Coyle and likes to play football.
Didnt NESV bring in a young up and coming man for the red sox when they took over ?

Thought so.
So the likes of Coyle and Di Matteo may be in with a shout if/when the owners look to bring in their own man.

I like both their philosophy of the way the game should be played - both impressive starts to their respective managerial career .

yeah i agree.
Between the two i would go for Coyle, he done a decent job in Scotland and then obviously got Burnley promoted and had a decent start to the season before moving on to Bolton.
He now has them in a very good position and they do play good football.
And he is a scot, nothing against Di Matteo for being italian but i would prefer a scot if i had a choice between the two.

i agree but that's modern day football. any manager who does a half decent job, especially a british one, is always going to be touted around for higher profile jobs. they don't have to win anything of note.
i like coyle because he comes across as a genuine bloke who plays football the right way and doesn't make excuses when his team get beat. contrast this to the likes of bruce, fat sam, o'neill and the likes. it was a well know fact that celtic wanted him before he went to bolton.
he's doing a great job at bolton but that doesn't in any way shape or form mean that he's anywhere near good enough to manage a really big club.
