I do think we have a mid table side though.
Sorba, Helik, Burgzorg, Rudoni and even Hoggy when he’s on it would walk into most teams in the mid table.
The right manager shouldn’t have a problem of steering us clear from relegation. I thoroughly believe that IF King Colin was still here, we would be 12-15th in the league. We should’ve beat Ipswich, Southampton, Plymouth, Blackburn, Qpr, i could go on all day…
The point is Moore was the problem, the next appointment is vital and if we pick the wrong man, we will be well and truly done for.
If we pick the right man and investment is put into the team, we could be looking at a top half finish next season i really do believe that. If we pick the wrong man we will be a mid table league one club, simple as that.

It's posts like this that will make the eventual appointment of Michael Duff even more underwhelming 😆 😂 Keep the faith lol Generally speaking, I find on this board people have a tendency to lean towards the negative. Understandable of course. But sometime you’ve got to say well done to the club for approaching candidates who match the documented ambition and essentially leaving no stone unturned. This appointment is most certainly not just in the hands of MC If I'm in a club and I'm buying drinks for all the fittest birds in the place no-one is gonna say well done to me if I still only end up in the taxi with big Tracy. Town fans have been let down so often we need results not just good intentions.

If Town's ambition is to get back to the Premier league, then how does Duff fit this ambition ? For me it simply doesn't, therefore why would Town choose him ? unless Town's stated ambition is not correct and its just bluster to make it sound good.

You don’t strike me as the sort of character who would settle for second best 😂 Hopefully big Tracy avoids the HTAFC team bus… 😂

Hogg of a few years ago would then there's Nicholls, Koroma, Kasumu, Wiles when he's on it, perhaps Spencer if he carries on as he is and Headley who would do well in mid table sides

According t'Yorkshire Post, Duff & Moore are among the favourites for the Port Vale job. Yes I noticed yesterday their fans were wanting Duff. If the choice is between Duff & Moore, can you blame them?

I am not sure anyone argues with this point, but Cooper will not come here we are not in a position to attract someone like Cooper. Even though we're in a better position than his previous club were when he took over 🤔 And you seem to want a cockney fuckwit that needs millions to spend to be average And his stock is much higher now than it was then... We're in a better position than Rob Edwards was when he took over at FGR as well. I don't think we'd get him either.

It's that attitude that got us Fotheringham and Darren Moore Exactly, to get the best person for the job, you have to sell the club properly and put your best foot forward. If you don't show ambition you wont get anything above rubbish. Both MF and DM from the get go were appointments, that were lazy "hope it works" when in reality, had no chance of working. Neither of these two had either the tactical attributes or even gained the respect of the players. If you do not get eitehr of these you are on to a loser.

I do think it’s funny how some people are so against pretty much every manager that gets brought up. Yes some of them are boring, predictable, merry go round managers but who cares if they do a good job? A few years ago Cov City appointed some non-descript merry-go-round manager. They were in the 4th tier at the time. He's doing ok for them..

I feel like Cooper would probably be a good appointment even though I can’t stand him on a personal level. Yeah, I don’t think he comes across very well on TV, especially when he’s moaning but according to plenty at Forest he was really big into the community and a lovely bloke The archetypal face for radio...

how come you said don't rule out SC, then said he has to your knowledge zero intersted in taking the job ? Cos he has no knowledge of who it might be be 🤔

Not questioning your knowledge but i'd be shocked if he's turning down Crystal Palace for us. He hasn’t been offered the palace job, it was hearsay. Shame. He'd have been Klass.

Don’t write SC off just yet!!! It's posts like this that will make the eventual appointment of Michael Duff even more underwhelming 😆 Just what I was thinking. It will be Duff because this is town we are talking about.

I hope its somebody that nobody has mentioned so far, then at least he will get 30 seconds before someone complains about him as opposed to every other candidate that at least one person on here has a serious issue with. Even Cooper has been flat our rejected with one person throwing his dummy out of the pram. Dont know why people expect us to get.

I have dismissed all talk of Cooper believing him to be out of reach.
However I think he would be ‘too risky’ for Palace right now and that’s the likely reason he hasn’t been appointed.

It's that attitude that got us Fotheringham and Darren Moore It's the same people appointing now, that appointed Darren Moore. And we were appointing from a position of strength at the time. There are some exciting looking appointments but it's difficult to predict how well they'll do here. Look at Jos Lukuhay's CV prior to him getting the job at Massive. Looked a great appointment at the time.

Must admit I'm expecting him to go to a top end, high resource club in this division. If Wagner fails at Norwich he'd be a good fit there imo.

You might be a total pig and should be grateful you got a fat lass. Huddersfield Town is no Brad Pitt. It's that attitude that got us Fotheringham and Darren Moore Humour aside for a minute Maynard is absolutely right here. It goes back to my nagging question about what the ambition, intent and plan (to get there) is. If we are looking to be a stable, sustainable Championship club then Duff makes sense ie he, on paper, fits the narrative. If we are looking to genuinely progress and look to challenge for, and try to stay in the Premier League I think we have to be a bit more forward thinking. Now the other key question is what those making the selection think is the right candidate. It could be that MC, the MC who we assume thought DM to be the "outstanding" candidate, is selling a Duff or similar (what I would, perhaps unfairly, call the next cab off the rank) as the progressive candidate. Of course if whoever "works" (noting I'm still not sure what good looks like) then happy days. If not Mr Nagle is paying another manager off and having to start again, from heaven knows where. I hope that those in charge take notice of the fan's concerns. Irrespective of who anyone thinks should get the job it has to align to an outcome and bigger picture. Most will see through any rhetoric that doesn't really map out what is expected from the next appointment. We have set a low bar for far too long at this club. Moreover the fanbase, who are desperate for sustained success, have also come to expect disappointment. Sadly it's in the DNA of the club and if Mr Nagle can change that mindset above all other things then he'll have done a good job. We cannot simply keep following "more of the same" and expect better. My big hope is that Mr Nagle is starting to understand this and will charge his delegates to deliver. This appointment would be a good start.

I have consistantly said it wont be Steve Cooper from the start at no point did I say dont rule him out that was "Desertstorm" I was told we spoke to Steve Cooper early in the process to be told he was not interested in the job, now unless something has dramaticaly changed I still believe this to be correct. However I for one would say if we get him, I am not sure we could have appointed anyone better and he would be the outstanding candidate I just dont believe its realistic and or an option dissapointingly. We were speaking to SC whilst DM was here and there is interest. The rivalry is heating up! Will castlehill be wrong yet again and desertstorm prevail victorious?
