What about Holloway as our next manager???? Been there and done it, decent eye for a player, and motivational. Passionate, a fans favourite, and tells it like it is. Could he work for us? Being a Bristolian it would allow him to move closer to home. And more importantly he would cost a lot less than DJ!!!!!
And what about Alex McLeish ??? A shrewd Scot, again been there and done it and has done a very decent job at Brum. I admit it is highly unlikely he would leave even if Brum are relegated, especially for the Cardiff job due to wages etc...
Aside from the Premiership managers, the other name I think worthy of consideration....Lee clark at Huddersfield. Whilst City faultered at the end of the season they went on something like a 23 game unbeaten run which is no mean feat in any tier of football. He is young, ambitious and could fit the bill if a decision is made not to go for an experienced manager.
Just thought I would throw this in as I would be interested to hear opinions. Cheers
