Would be pretty remarkable if he left the club for trying to crack down on gloves considering they stood by him after he chinned an opposition manager and was arrested and sent to trial for it.

Scousers are born with gloves on, it stops the police identifying them as being offenders at crime scenes.

If finances allow then for me the Cowley brothers.  Living in Lincolnshire I have heard a lot about these two from friends who met them and said they had a lot of time for the fans.  They took a run down playing squad and turned it around there.  A couple of promotions and a good cup run which allowed the owners to clear debts, refurbish their training ground with the latest stuff and more importantly a club with no debts.

They may well be out of Carols price range, but they are not in work at the moment.  Could be a good fit here may be.  Better than some of the suggestions I have seen.  We need an experienced manager not a just starting their career as a manager.

Good spot, and shows the danger of statistics out of context... looks like he did a decent job there!

Wiki says this about Adam Murray:

"Murray is known as a manager with an eye for detail and getting the most from the resources available to him by working on 'marginal gains' to get the extra one percent advantage to improve his players and teams performances. At Mansfield Murray developed a passing game adopted from the Dutch total football model but tailored to football league players. Murray is known to be an advocate of sports science, sports analysis, strength and conditioning, and sports psychology within football in order to achieve maximum gains on the field. Murray has often spoken about the importance of building the right infrastructure for his teams including the importance of a strong academy system for young players to develop into the first team environment, his trust of developing young talent include such players as Peterborough United's 2016/17 player of the season Ryan Tafazolli[32] who cites Murray as the biggest influence on his career as a young player and 'developing him from a boy to a man'

Good write up but he looks too inexperienced for me and his win ratio is not terribly good: 31.07% at Mansfield and 28.57% at non-league Boston (after which he went to Barnsley as a coach).

On the debate between experience and rookies, the Cowleys had little track record before taking Lincoln front non league to league one. And Ainsworth the same at Wycombe, Currently the longest serving manager in the leagues and in the championship. Every experienced manager started somewhere. Its a gamble which ever way we turn.

I know that we all want a fish that is big for the pond in which we swim. I’m convinced that we might get one with the support that they will get from our owners, even if it’s not totally financial support. I have to agree with this as ours and others clubs financial streams for the future are so uncertain. 
I don’t think we can offer more than a contract until the end of the season, that’s if the season ever finishes. However there would have to be a caveat in the contract that if we do stay up then a two year deal will be on the table (that would hopefully be the sweetener). 
I feel a lot of the names mentioned would probably not apply, as what have they got to gain. Like most employment today it’s all about building your CV’s and increasing your profile, with some of the names mentioned it will be a lose lose scenario. I hope that I’m proven wrong.
