I would. His football during the short spell he spent with us was abysmal. I would be very disappointed not to have persuaded Rosenior that we are worth investing his career in.
Fake News - Rigged VoteEven Trump would have problems claiming the results of this vote weren’t decisive!
Why do you think that? What evidence do you base that on?Has he been interviewed?
Because If we end up with Appleton I think he’ll have been our 3rd/4th choice.
Agree, though he did have a very tough act to follow....I would. His football during the short spell he spent with us was abysmal. I would be very disappointed not to have persuaded Rosenior that we are worth investing his career in.
Based on Appleton being shit and the other options not so shit (as him at least)Why do you think that? What evidence do you base that on?
All opinion then and not fact?Based on Appleton being shit and the other options not so shit (as him at least)
I have a list of at least 99 better options...
Apologies, there's actually only 98 ahead of him in my list... He managed to squeeze Father Ted into 100th place on account of him being deceased. It was a tough one, with Father Teds Corpse offering somewhat more in the personality and motivational side of the role, whilst Michael was considered to be technically more astute.All opinion then and not fact?
Michael Appleton is possibly in the top 50 mangers currently in this country. The fact that Blackpool are in the top 37 teams probably just rules him out, but not far off due to experience and know how. It would be disrespectful to put hom lower than that.
I could see the attraction to Father Ted for the position, especially if he could tempt Pope from Burnley and Jesus from Man City.Apologies, there's actually only 98 ahead of him in my list...

Unfortunately he's no longer with us... So I'm afraid I've had to rule him out...I could see the attraction to Father Ted for the position, especially if he could tempt Pope from Burnley and Jesus from Man City.
Watch it be someone we haven't even been linked with now.I’ve a feeling it’ll be Rosenior or someone completely left field and unmentioned to date.
You mean somebody unheard of like Joe Edwards, or somebody that has been heard of like David Unsworth? Possibility I suppose ...Watch it be someone we haven't even been linked with now.
Could be either. I’d imagine it’d be a total unknown with a great pedigree perhaps elsewhere like Graham Potter was for Brighton?You mean somebody unheard of like Joe Edwards, or somebody that has been heard of like David Unsworth? Possibility I suppose ...
Done think we've been linked to either of thoes, so yeah eitherYou mean somebody unheard of like Joe Edwards, or somebody that has been heard of like David Unsworth? Possibility I suppose
I think that because the club have interviewed Duff who was the front runner then they interviewed Rosenior who became the front runner and neither have been announced so that’s at least third in the pecking order and could well be someone else interviewed as well.Why do you think that? What evidence do you base that on?
I think you need to view BFC differently now than in previous times. The club will invite people to interview, not wait for people to apply. Hopefully it's s moved up a notch in terms of stature and professionalism. Sure, candidates will still apply, but the clubs board will now actively seek the right person as opposed to waiting for them. That's not to say the 3rd person interview is the 3rd choice at all, quite the opposite in fact.I think that because the club have interviewed Duff who was the front runner then they interviewed Rosenior who became the front runner and neither have been announced so that’s at least third in the pecking order and could well be someone else interviewed as well.
If the club are doing second interviews there must have been several candidates.
I can’t accept that people think it’s ok that he left us after 11 games. We were infamous due to Koko so for him to suddenly have a lightbulb moment after 11 games, is something I find very convenient to convey the message.He basically did one after a few games. Why would we re-employ someone like that.
On 7 November 2012, Appleton was appointed manager of Blackpool on a one-year rolling contract.[20] His first game in charge was on 10 November 2012, a 2–2 draw at home to Bolton.[21] Appleton earned his first win as Blackpool manager on 1 December 2012, beating Peterborough 4–1 away from home, extending his unbeaten start to five games.[22] He was in charge for a further six League games, of which he won one, drew three and lost two.
After his resignation, he became the shortest-serving Blackpool manager in their history, with just eleven League games under his belt
We don’t want a dog in charge (nice pedigree).Joe Edwards has a nice pedigree and would fit the bill on first look
Dont think managers salary will be an issue for potential recruits its a well paid postAppleton could be just a bait, for when we sign some nobody who will manage the club for 10 bob a week and all the fans will be saying thank fuck it wasn't Appleton.
It’s AppletonDont think managers salary will be an issue for potential recruits its a well paid post
You sure ? How sure ?It’s Appleton
It’s Appleton
I'm surprised you have the nerve to show your face on here. ITK my arse!!It’s Appleton
Thats pretty fair same hereI will give Appleton until the New Year and then make up my mind if he is a good manager or not.
