Well im going to address what most of you have already probebly but im not sure. Steve Bruce - Has to go now, depressing football, he goes attacking then defensive at such wrong moments. i would personally get Kevin Keegan as our new manager, knows how to motivate players, will not stand for rubbish, can sign us some good players. The music - What the hell is all that old bull, if they want to pump up a crowd they should play blue sky and the tamperer, or even something like lets get it started by the BEP. Tom Ross - 1 word really, idiot. Forrsell - Can't stand him anymore, i dont see why he gets so much love when he comes on, hes rubbish. id swap him for freddy eastwood or something. Ticket prices - im a season ticket holder so it dosent really bother me but surley if we did £10 for tickets they would make more money, gain more atmosphere in the ground rather than charging £29 ridiculous. But i really want Keegan in, your thoughts on that? |

Not for me. He has played some great football in his time at Newcastle and at City in the early days. He's very un-reliable and Man City was a complete shambles by the time he left. The less said about his England days the better generally. There must be better out there than him ? |

Keegan would be like Bruce, mark 2. Curbishley is the only manager around with potential and a good reputation, no players will respect Keegan. I'd offer Curbs a deal until the end of the season, and see if Lippi really meant it when he said he wants to come to the PL. Although Curbishley might be the right man long term. We'd put ourselves in a better position sacking Bruce, from whatever angle you look at it. |

Whats Tom Ross got to do with the Blues -why should he be a niggle you have with the Blues? as for ticket prices how would they make more money? 18000 @ £29 equates to 522,000 if they filled the ground at a Tenner a ticket you are talking £300,000 so a loss of 222,000 in income.... |

If we can't beat either Ipswich or Leicester at home, there must be something going wrong. Drawing against one of them and beating the other would be a bit of a blip, but to draw both...... I'm just waiting for the team to 'click' and the results start happening, along with great performances. |

Another idiotic thread. Yes, let's get Keegan, I'm sure he will get lots of sympathy for his tactics. |

Alan Curbishley is my 1st choice.... But I would have NO objection to Kevin Keegan.........he did not leave Man City in a shambles at all ,they were in deep financial trouble when he joined them and as for the England job well it's fair to say that EVERY England manager since Sir Alf Ramsey has failed as far as on the field success goes and that list includes Sir Bobby Robson,Ron Greenwood,Terry Venables and Don Revie However Kevin did a superb job at Newcastle leading them to Prem runners up in 1997 and into Europe for the 1st time in 27 years Plus he took a stale and decrepid Fulham FC from the old Third Division to the Prem in roughly three years and they've been in the top flight eversince He believes in the West Ham and Holland philosophy of 'Total Football'........he wouldn't be a bad shout IMHO .....and he isn't afraid to speak his mind....his famous 'live' dig at Sir Alex in 1997 with the headphones on is still shown even today Kevin Keegan was a world class footballer for 15 years and has an excellent knowledge of the game as well as being very likeable.......I met him once and shook his hand,he was a very down to earth bloke |

Keegan is yesterday's man. Curbishley won't come here and is vastly over rated. No better, no worse than Bruce. Oh yes, Bruce isnt going to be sacked, isn't going to walk. Change the debate please |

I agree. Though to be fair that's true of the vast majority of managers. A sizeable proportion of Charlton fans were glad Curbishley left, though I suspect they'd happily take him back right now ! |

Keegan would only be good if he came with a master tactican with him that he turned to for all things tactical. I think Keegan is better at the Motivational stuff but maybe some time out of the game has taught him some new tricks. He's certianly the sort of manager that you want if your looking to build a profile of a team. However he wouldn't be my first choice. |

I doubt Charlton fans think he's overrated right now. Charlton have punched above their weight for six years - all with Curbishley at the helm. Now look at them. In fact, considering how "overrated" Curbishley is, I thought I'd take a look at his Premiership record after he bounced back in 2000: 2000-1: 9th (52 points) 2001-2: 14th (44 points) 2002-3: 12th (49 points) 2003-4: 7th (53 points) 2004-5: 11th (46 points) 2005-6: 13th (47 points) Not bad for an "overrated" manager and "big" club, eh? I also noticed that he finished above Blues every single season we were in the Premier League. Christ, if Curbishley is overrated, what the hell does that make Bruce? |

For Keegan read Bruce, OLeary,Bryan Robson, class players living on past playing reputations to enter into management and guess what they are all rubbish at it. Imo Keegan is one of the most pathetic whinging managers ive ever seen and what he did when he had the Englands managers job well, for me shouldnt be allowed to work in this country. BUT what a player |

How about Steve Cotterill from Burnley,done very well at all his clubs ,not over rated or big headed and performing very well with a small Burnley squad. |

7th and 9th are hardly what I'd call "mid-table". By the way, apologies if I've got this wrong, but are you suggesting it's the fans' fault the club tried to kick on too soon? |
