If Keane is appointed, I wonder who will be his assistant? Could Father O'Neill be persuaded, or would his ego not permit? Would the venerable man of the cloth be a good assistant in any event?

When Keane was our manager he was 35. He's now 50. Would he need an older, more experienced assistant alongside him, or a younger bloke with more up to date experience & ideas? Would Keane conform to stereotype by playing 'bad cop' or might he confound by playing 'good cop'? Or will his approach be something completely different?

I tend not to over engage in the speculation game, but this time, not least because I'm pig sick of all this clarting on, and purely in a doubtless doomed attempt to inject a little levity into the mire, I'm going at it, pell-mell....

Keane 2.0 hopefully incoming

Might go against the general mood, but surely it’s about time the club got a managerial appointment right.

If that process takes a couple of weeks, or longer, but if it means we can start a proper rebuild so be it.

It’s likely we’ve got another season in league 1. Get it right now with the right coaching team - point the ship in the right direction now and we have the capability to smash promotion next season and be ready to compete in the championship. Hopefully under Roy Keane (but if not Alex Neil) we can finally sort this mess out.

The goalposts have moved after the last 10 days or so, abandon the quick fix and plan for the long term. IMO.

To write this season off now would be a huge mistake. Yes get the right man in and yes build for the future but there's absolutely no reason we should give up on promotion. The play offs are lottery but if you don't buy a ticket and that. I'd be beyond pissed off if there wasn't a serious effort to salvage our season.
