who do you want as the new manager

[North Royal Lad]

we getting manager by QPR

[Forbury Lion]

Michael Gilkes caretaker manager?

[Ark Royal]

Cannot think of a less inspiring and more underwhelming appointment than Paul Clement. I would have liked Graham Potter, but he has just signed a new four-year deal with Ostersunds.

[Winston Biscuit]

Bolton fans bricking it that they might lose Parky, saying they need to do whatever it takes to keep him.

Just don't think he's the kind of bloke to walk out on a club in a relegation battle with 8 games left. If we were going to get him, it would be in the summer IMO.

agree. But for 1995, I would love it to happen.

[Vision]

Steve Cotterell now in the frame. Dave Kitson as his assistant presumably.

[Winston Biscuit]

Kitson back in any role would be great. The secret roll maybe.

[boycey]

It's Clement
FYI

[Denver Royal]

Looks like Paul Clement is the favourite guys, what are your thoughts?

Here ya go

Anyone but Clement ffs Sacked from his first/last two managerial posts with complaints of boring, negative football and bad tactical decisions He's Jaap Stam with a bit of extra hair

Can't get excited about Clement. Both Swansea and Derby fans very critical of negative, defensive tactics (heard all that before) and probably not going to bring fans back in their droves.

[CavershamRoyal]

Would be solidly whelmed with Clement. Not sure if it would be a long-term appointment, I suppose we can't be too picky right now, just need to stay up and regroup in the Summer.

[Hound]

Did a great job keeping Swansea up last year. Proven to be able to keep a club up. Did ok with Derby, sacked when 5 points off the top

With our current situation, Clement to the end of the season looks the right call. After that, then lets see

[Snowflake Royal]

I'm normally totally dismissive of the usual Coppell suggestion, but the fan impact alone is worth a two month contract to then have a proper look based on which league we're in next season.

Big Nos for me:
Redknapp, Terry, Gerrard.

I could accept Pearson for two months.

Clement, Warburton, Di Matteo, Parky, Lampard, Viveash, any young promising lower league manager, all ok by me.

Pardew has a job and there's no way he's a possibility currently.

Id rather take Stam back that have Redknapp.

Id rather have double d and kes do it.

Coppell lives and works in India, you think he'll up sticks and move to Reading for a 2 month contract?

you gotta love the mentality of supporters.

You reckon Coppell even gives Reading a seconds thought during his week out in India? I don't

The team he manages has a player called Wellington Priori, which sounds like a rehabilitation clinic

Also, Andre Bikey is there, funnily enough

[Stranded]

Paul Clement has a decent record (if it is to be him)

With Derby at Champ level:

P33 W14 D12 L7

Swansea at Prem:

P41 W14 D5 L22

If he can replicate that PPG at Derby over the next 8 games (assuming its him) then we will pick up 13pts and be comfortably safe.

Even his Swansea PPG would see us get to 45pts, which should be enough.

If only Stam could have replicated the PPG from Reading last season....we'd be in the playoffs....

PPG's with previous clubs or even previous seasons mean nothing. It's all about getting the right fit to work with the players you have.

[Silver Fox]

Paul Clement now 1/10 on SkyBet

Got to be Clement then shirley?
The chaps at the bookies are more clued in than most of the gimps on here.

Except wrt relegation odds, according to most of the gimps on here
