To be honest, I would say every manager we've been linked with has a better record as manager than Lillis. We only have 8 points in 6 games under him and he was sacked by Halifax. He's done a great job with the academy and the performances have improved with the first team, but this generally happens any time a caretaker comes in. If you weren't a Town fan and your club employed Lillis it would be about as inspiring as getting Dave Hockoday. Not a dig at Lillis. Fair point marr. Just being realistic. Grass isn't always greener. you are correct the grass is not always greener but i believe there are people who town have spoken too more qualified but we shall see.

The question is, will this been there done it be any better than Lillis ? To be honest, I would say every manager we've been linked with has a better record as manager than Lillis. We only have 8 points in 6 games under him and he was sacked by Halifax. He's done a great job with the academy and the performances have improved with the first team, but this generally happens any time a caretaker comes in. If you weren't a Town fan and your club employed Lillis it would be about as inspiring as getting Dave Hockoday. Not a dig at Lillis. But 4 pts from every 3 games would mean 60-63 points which would be our best points haul since returning to this division There is no doubt in my mind Mark would do a decent job but arguably he has a more important job at the club in his role with the academy with the coveted job security that the (financial beneficial) manager's role does not. We are in safe hands with Lillis until the club decides on a permanent manager.

Think the problem might be that on the face of it we're an attractive proposition: ambitious chairman, good history, centrally located (relatively).
The reality isn't quite as attractive though... keen to adhere to financial FairPlay (I'm happy with this before you start), multiple recent managers, fickle fans who don't give players or mangers a chance.
I personally think the fans won't be happy unless its a big name but we aren't attractive enough as a club meaning we'll get someone who won't be given enough of a chance by the fans (like Robins).
Therefore what we need is someone who will galvanise us, bleed blue and white, create an us V them attitude and be given half a chance by us.
Lillis is starting to look like the only choice.

Fair points well put. I'd still like it to be someone else like Powell. Powell would have a tough job winning over the "vocal minority" who will just be waiting to say, "I told you so" at every opportunity, but if Lillis gets the sack (which I would say is likely with whoever we get), we would lose him completely, as people have said. I think the board should trust their own instincts and not try and please the, "shout loudest, so that makes us right" brigade. If it ends up being Lillis, then he'd certainly get the support, even from people like me who thinks he should be left in charge of the academy.

Having finally limped over the promotion finish line with a weaker, far less confident l1 squad than we started we discover the weaknesses of our team in the Championship.3 seasons in these have still not been addressed. It is more an more apparent that the club is doing it "Their way" sales and signings whilst manager less. During our last managers tenure we were told constantly we were a work in progress and yet the key deficiencies in playing personnel were ignored obviously not required to progress then ? So after witnessing the utter shambles of a match v bournmouth we the fickle fans then learn that Deano wouldnt even have sacked him!!! as he walked. As for giving players a chance, take Arfield,the fans didnt ruin scott arfield LEE CLARK RUINED HIM! We have all this talent but we have had a stream of managers pick the same failing players over and over and over again. FFP condems us to eternally struggle in this division,because even if we sold 3 players one summer ( lets pretend we actually did this before the season started) and got 30 million for them woyuld we go out and spend that 30m on six or seven great players to have a right crack at getting to the PL? Would we hell!No we would not dare risk our future spending all that would we? And if i am wrong why have i come to think that way? I would be more than happy to see Lillis given a chance he belonged to a team that always put the effort in and made me a Town fan. There as not been that many good years since but we all go on supporting,but the difference is these days fans are a bit more clued up as to what goes on and football is much more expensive to watch, which is fine so long as our players play like lillis did and actually put a shift in.

every club in the country has its fair share of 'fickle fans'..some considerably more vociferous and aggressive than ours..
we spent too much and didn't have a team when we got here.. it hasn't been addressed.. bringing the fans into the equation of the loss of our last 3 managers wasn't a great idea, or actually the truth..
said before, clark lost 2 games and got the boot after being on the longest unbeaten run we have ever had, grayson got promotion and alledgedly then 'lost the players' and Robins lost the players and got a bit of stick from the fans..
whatever has gone wrong within the club needs sorting before the new bloke comes in.. a bit of booing and some negative posts on social media are not the major problem.

Didn't have a team when we got here? Agree in part, but look at Sheffield wed.....a bigger club who themselves have had to rip their promotion team apart to move forward. That's what happens in most cases as Bournemouth, Brighton and Leicester have also proved. Each of the three recent managers has improved us in terms of league position - our biggest problem now is very simple....how the hell do we bridge a financial chasm created by parachute money which continues to widen the gap every year. We can't do it via spending.......the owner won't countenance it, nor should he IMHO. The problem with that is that according to many you seemingly condemn yourself to a permanent diet of struggle or you get lucky a la burnley where they had a decent team, good manager but most importantly no injuries to key men and they get promoted. There isn't that much wrong with htfc as a club IMO - there will always be things we disagree with, that's why football is so popular because it is full of different opinions. Where the problem arises is the structure of the game - some folks are on here moaning we are getting beaten regularly and can't compete in the championship. That would be magnified many times over in the prem........and those who say they just want one season there are kidding themselves. Football is about winning surely? Unfortunately, the greedy league has ensured that it's now more about the money than the game.

Dean forgot that the vast majority of the supporters are fully aware of our financial position and that mid table championship is an ambitious goal at this time. We don't expect a massive improvement overnight and we know there will be some 'difficult days' in the championship. A lot of us sat through some good hidings in the first season and endured the last few games before survival in the knowledge we were new boys and its a tough and steep learning curve. To then sit through another 12 game run without a win and precious little to cling to wasn't good enough.
Towns support know who and what we are, we merely expect the team to give it their best shot each game and give 100% effort. We all know when we have been short changed and Dean should also accept that we pay the same admission as quite a lot of teams in this league so its the least we expect the team to do.
That's all, not champions, maybe a push at the play offs once every so often or even down the bottom as long as we know the team/manager are giving it everything. I will support a losing team, I wont support individuals who are 'losers'...

Robbins said he was trying to model us on Hull! Yeah who would want to get promoted to the prem and be playing in Europe?! I didn't say that was a bad thing. They played 3 at the back a lot and that's how he wanted us to set up.

Fickle fans ?? Really.I wonder why? We got a millionaire chairman who let a novice manager spunk money away left right and centre on a whole bunch of dross with the odd gem admittedly that we have sold. You're criticising him for investing and showing ambition? You'd have prefered it if he hadn't given his manager much money then, and wouldn't have criticised him for that at all? Having finally limped over the promotion finish line with a weaker, far less confident l1 squad than we started we discover the weaknesses of our team in the Championship Its a big step up. It was obvious that weaknesses in our squad would be there!.3 seasons in these have still not been addressed. Haven't they? The side we have now would absolutely wipe the floor with the side we got promoted with! It is massively better. You need to remind yourselves of the players we have brought in, often for large sums. Whilst you might not like DH giving his managers big chunks of money to sign players with and would prefer us to find quality for free it seems, the reality is that isn't likely to happen. Some signings work and some don't but to accuse the club of failing to address weakness is a pile of crap IMO.It is more an more apparent that the club is doing it "Their way" sales and signings whilst manager less. During our last managers tenure we were told constantly we were a work in progress which we obviously are! and yet the key deficiencies in playing personnel were ignored obviously not required to progress then ? Like breaking our transfer record to strengthen up front? Like bringing in genuine competition for our keeper , for our right back and signing players like butterfield and coady?So after witnessing the utter shambles of a match v bournmouth we the fickle fans then learn that Deano wouldnt even have sacked him!!! as he walked. ` yup. ~After leading us to our highest finish in 14 seasons, and having just changed all his backroom team, dean was prepared to give the guy some more time, rather than throwing his toys out of the pram after one shocking display. You'd prefer the Cellino type of chairman then?As for giving players a chance, take Arfield,the fans didnt ruin scott arfield LEE CLARK RUINED HIM! The fans gave him a load of shite everytime he did anything that was even slightly poor! If the fans had shown the same patience they do with someone like Vaughan or Holmes or Wells, then maybe, just maybe, we might have seen something more like the player Burnley are seeing.We have all this talent but we have had a stream of managers pick the same failing players over and over and over again. A stream of managers who's failing players have had us finish in a better position for each of the last 7 seasons?FFP condems us to eternally struggle in this division,because even if we sold 3 players one summer ( lets pretend we actually did this before the season started) and got 30 million for them woyuld we go out and spend that 30m on six or seven great players to have a right crack at getting to the PL? Would we hell!No we would not dare risk our future spending all that would we? Oh no, We don't sign any players do we? FFS, you want a list of the players we've signed since dean Hoyle took over the ownership of this club? Unberfeckinlievable! And if i am wrong why have i come to think that way? Because you have a shit memory?I would be more than happy to see Lillis given a chance he belonged to a team that always put the effort in and made me a Town fan. Did they? There were times back then that iof DATM existed, it would have gone into meltdown we played so poorly. Buxton for example would have been hounded out of the club in 1981/82. There as not been that many good years since but we all go on supporting, Not forgetting that where we are NOW is actually better than practically all but a tiny handfull of times over the past 40 years, which puts your negative moaning in perspective maybe? ! but the difference is these days fans are a bit more clued up as to what goes on clearly not and football is much more expensive to watch, which is fine so long as our players play like lillis did and actually put a shift in.

Not read all this thread and know this has been bubbling for a while but, seriously, Chris Powell. FFS. Can't we do better than an unemployed failure? How inspiring is that? If he is appointed that is why we are HTAFC and always will be. We are better than Powell, who at the very best is a big gamble and bigger than we need to be taking.
If he is appointed I shan't be wasting any more of my money at the turnstiles this year.

If he is appointed I shan't be wasting any more of my money at the turnstiles this year. Shall we take bets to see if he returns??

Even if he got us playing really attractive,winning football? don't waste your time, there is no arguing that kind of mentality. it is his money and his choice but it is disheartening to see that that level of thought does exist. and fwiw, i would suggest it is that kind of attitude, and not people expressing opinions, which must be so frustrating to someone like dean hoyle.
