Well, I suppose now is as good a time as any to get the debate going.
I suppose we shouldn’t really be surprised by this in the grand scheme of things, given how many managers we have gone through in the past, will one more managerial departure after such a short spell in charge really make that much of a difference to the landscape of the club?
I don’t think so.
Given what happened yesterday morning, it’s time that the club start looking towards the future, and that means trying to find a new man to lead the team from the dugout, and the fans have been having their say on the matter on social media. And to say that they’ve been passionate about the debate would be a bit of an understatement.
Whether it be a case of trying to bring back someone who has already been in charge of the Blues, or trying someone new, there were plenty of names being thrown around by the fans. Some of them pleading for them to come, others begging them to stay away.

What about you? Do you think the club should look back to a previous boss? Or try someone new?
