Neil Aspin although he has just been given a decent contract at his hometown club.

Probably because you selected him?
No, no, no!!! :D
Maybe it was my screen, it doesn't look so obvious now.
Hovering your mouse over the name makes it appear darker.

I just don't see the logic with a Grant Holt appointment, despite him at least knowing the club.

Name some cases where elite ex players have cut it in The National League and it's worked.

Didi Hamman syndrome

Brabin is Bayles mark 2 except he spends money and you don't get promoted. I'd prefer Bayles in that case!

Askey wouldn't come here in a million years

Could cope with Bignot and Moore but not Moore on his own

Money for me. Well respected, knows what it takes. Decent contacts

Current chief scout for Bradford City and ex Carlisle manager Gregg Abbott?

I think Holt alone would be a short term fix. His appointment may raise the profile of the club with the media and put a few extra bodies in the crowd at first but the interest would soon dwindle.

Not sure Moore alone is going to cut the mustard either. So if we are going to retain him I think it's got to be in a partnership where he has an input but not the final say. Otherwise I think we may well be in the same scenario in January.

Agree with all of that.

Money would be my first choice, but from the early signs MM & MB would be ok.
We didn't underestimate them, we just didn't think they were that good.

Grant Holt would be good if he brings an experienced assistant and coach.

MONEY MONEY MONEY!!! Lol - I can see the obvious allure of Holt and the buzz that would initially bring, which is the sole main reason I guess why he is the all-round most popular choice
