David Healy, he’s been rather successful in the last few years, mores the pity

Purely speculation but some awful names suggested in the free presshttps://www.doncasterfreepress.co.uk/sport/football/bolton-wanderers-coach-among-names-linked-with-doncaster-rovers-job-following-gary-mcsheffreys-sacking-3883197Sam Hird?! Come on now

Quote from: Pside on October 17, 2022, 01:14:58 pmRob staton saying keep an eye on Graeme Lee. FFS I got a whisper about Greame Lee a few weeks ago, posted this on a similar named thread on Vsc.
Curley is that so? because when I have seen them play the wide men have been brought into play every game and attacked the area from wide positions. Whatever it works for them, and loads of other clubs, what do you want us to do, play a game that doesn't suit the players we have got? As far as I am concerned, I am not bothered how we win a game, too many great teams have failed to win things in my lifetime playing expansive football to be bothered about that. When the Real Madrid supporters came out of their games with PSG, Liverpool and Manchester City do you think they were bothered that they had been outplayed in their games in the champions league last season. You can have all the stats you want, the only one that counts is who puts the ball in the onion bag the most times buddy. Do that on a regular basis, and it doesn't matter how, most supporters will kiss the backside of the manager, and turn up to watch every turgid minute.
I don't know much about him but Schofield seems a bit like Huddersfield's version of McSheffrey.Coached in their academy and then propelled into the first team manager role too early.Although they only gave him 9 games so it's difficult to tell whether or not he'd have improved them in time.

Come on nowLike it or not - the former editor of the Free Press is now Media Manager at Doncaster Rovers. I'm sure they have some insight, and as I stated before, the high likelihood will be they choose someone Copps likes and has links with the club.Graeme LeePaul GreenSam HirdDanny SchofieldThese are all names more likely to be next manager. Let's set realistic expectations please on who is likely to be put in charge full time.
Bishop plays one striker and just lumps the ball forward.
What about Jonathan Greening (Scarborough Ath) or Jon Askey (York C) if we're looking towards the non league for experience? They've both turned their respective clubs on their heads and are smashing it at higher levels presently.JFH would be grand but hasn't really done it outside of Burton A and it hardly worked for him this time out.Dave Artell has good youth development and budget management, but was one of a couple of managers to perform worse then GMc and Rovers last year.Rob Edwards would be a shout but he might think he's earnt the chance to manage higher up. Otherwise we could include Steve Morison in there as managers with higher level experience.
Graham Alexander the outstanding candidate of the names mentioned imo.
Out of the names discussed so far I quite like the idea of Danny Schofield - sacked 9 games into the season with Huddersfield so still time to change things if he’d stayed (?) but did ok with them previous season and young enough to still be developing. Championship experience and potential to show he is better than his last season with Huddersfield? At least he’s not an ex-player and can bring in fresh eyes & experience. Some will say he failed last time but let’s face it, we’re TLO donny and whoever we get, they will probably have failed it had one poor season somewhere or they wouldn’t be interested in us.
