Best Of

We've had him once, Blackpool away. He missed the assault on Harvie (I think?) that led to their first equaliser and a subsequent three match ban for their lad that was given after the game. So yes, he was crap

We need someone to galvanise this team and get them over the line to promotion. Sam is obviously part of the new culture and it's great to have him at the club, but he is a stop-gap and despite his unbeaten run, I'm not sure he's the one to push the first team on.

If we are going to pick a 'name' League manager, it's much harder than a foreign coach being given the job, as most have had peaks and troughs (who would have thought we would be challenging for the title under Blooms?) and someone who was a success elsewhere might be a disaster here (eg Gaz to QPR) and vice versa.

If people like Johnson and Evatt always end up blaming other people..that might not go down well with the people they will end up blaming!

And they haven't been sacked numerous times.

Obviously nobody of any ability wants the job!

Give it to Sam and Sam until the end of the season. They know the players, they know the system we have been playing and they are connected to the academy as well.

Surely Schumacher would be better than Johnson and Evatt !?? Unless he's said no

Also, not keen on Grace getting the gig, for no other reason that I remember Neil Smillie, and i don't want that to happen to him.

Really not sure why you would want Grace till the end of the season. He’s Wycombe through and through and a decent guy but I think the pros stop there.

Saturday was evidence that that shouldn't happen. And it won't - I expect we'll announce someone very soon.

My main concern about Sam Grace is he seems a very gentle, quiet-spoken character, and management is a hard-nosed business. Having to tell veteran players they are not in the team or squad, motivating and driving players towards a vision, etc. It's really difficult to say for sure if he has the right personality, even though I think everyone is unanimous about him being a lovely bloke.
