who would you pick to manage Chester FC

List a few players who we need? And the available manager who will bring them in on the budget that Johnson and Morley have left us?

We need to look longer term than bringing in senior players on big money (like Horsfield and Stephenson) who just dont earn their corn (like Horsfield and Stephenson).

A name manager like Burr or Bignot hasnt worked. Insanity is doing what you've always done and expecting different results, we should try something different.

Calum would give us everything, would already have players identified, probably want to go full time at KGV etc, but to be honest I think he'd be fucking mental to take this bag of shite squad on. It could kill the excellent momentum his managerial career has picked up.

It's not rocket science though is it? It's hard work. You get out there and watch them. You request video from games. That's how you scout players and opposition. Not from the contacts list in your phone.

For all the plaudits, B&J were on a LARGE salary for what was a couple of nights and a day a week. Did they put the real hard yards in when signing what they did over the summer? The results dont show that?

For me it's not about what or who they know, it's about how they are going to apply themselves to the role and develop our first team squad into one that will carry us upwards.

I am fairly sure the board will want full time next season with the KGV being available, and that would mean young, hungry players released from further up the pyramid. This is a market CMc has worked in with Runcorn. It fits for me, but probably only in the summer. This shower would see him sacked by March.

No doubt Neil Redfearn will apply again. Wasn't he close to getting it last time?

Callum Mac needs the job like a whole in the head. Yes he would get superb backing from virtually everyone and would give a short term lift in spirits, but for how long. People are turning their noses up at the perceived horrible bastards, same as they do to the horrible bastard players who always turn us over. Time we had some right horrible bastards of our own. Too much reliance on various Mr nice guys.

It's probably not this lot we'd want sorting out, but the next lot. You'd hope whoever came in could put together a competitive team. 

I was at the game today and Callum wanted to be noticed

Just give it to big Andy Morrison

There are loads of players playing, in the Northern Premier West, that could probably step up and play National League North. etc Neviett from Wareington Rylands, has just signed a contract extension with Tranmere. I would rather tske a chance on 2 or 3 of them

He has literally just loaned a player from Man United

I think Cal is the long term replacement we should go for, but the only issue at the moment is he under contract at Runcorn as are his staff he would want to bring with him,

Probably worth getting someone in until the end of season to sort us out and then have a fresh start in the summer and start again with the recruitment

What's the old Ginga Ninja Wrighty up to nowadays?

If they stick to the job requirements then I think that would also rule out Ian.

If we ended up with him again, I would not step foot in deva again until he was gone, So no way!!, Most Arrogant Person I Have ever met.
For me Callum is the man for us, Chester through & through, people saying too young etc, Just remember We’ve tried so called older & more experienced managers many times, Mostly without Success.

If you want experience then Gannon is probably the man. However, As for newer managers Carden ( now Telford) has done well. The sacked Buxton duo ( Haywood and Ward) play good football as Calum and Dave McNeil at Rylands do. Those two will both manage teams at a higher level
