Is this what you would want ?
The point of a bet is to identify the winner. What the punter might like or want don't come into it.

Maybe however I can pose the question.

500/1 that he is the manager 7/2 that he takes the current one away and has him on the payroll.


5/1 that Tisdale is CEO at Somerset CCC on A day [tap]

If we get too serious we might get moved to WOWS. (boffin)

You know I would not stifle debate though.

I just wonder why so many City fans have an obsession with those currently at the club or previously having played for us etc being our next manager.

We should be picking the best man, I very much doubt that man is one of the above.

As you indicate this is probably not for this thread.

Maybe the "obsession" is based on sharp perception of how things happen at ECFC. ;)

The best horses don't make the Grand National scene.

Oopsy.
I was about to mention him, I like Waddock and would take him over Tisdale every day of the week.

I reckon he would do a great job here with the backing Tisdale has had.
Don't particularly like Waddock but once again he is doing a very good job at Aldershot on minimal resources when can only be applauded. Doubt he'd want to join us anyway but would be an interesting choice and possibly worth a shot at!
