Going to throw a couple of names into the hat myself - what about Gary Waddock? Or, if we would want to go a bit more leftfield, Emma Hayes would be a great appointment, IMO.

People crying about a non league manager, imagine the meltdown if a woman got the job!

In what way would it be a "great appointment"? What's her experience of L2 football?

Pete wild will be announced this week.

Find it strange that some think that being a successful manager in the NL somehow does not qualify as such in the EFL. IMO there are at least half a dozen sides this season in the NL that would have probably beaten us home or away.
Agreed. I'd be very happy with Wild, Ardley or Garrard although I'll be pleasantly surprised if we see any of them at Holker Street. All managers with decent records and knwoledge of the good players at National League level which is a better place to recruit from for clubs with limited financial resources.

Should be a banning offence to mention this kid's name. There is absolutely 0% chance he would EVER manage Barrow. Emma Hayes is a better shout :sentoff:

She’s a winner - won everything there has to be won in the women’s game. The standard of the WSL is not too dissimilar to League 2 in all honesty.

Come on, BoD, let’s be pioneering! :D

Any of these 3 managers won't come cheap, compensation would have to be paid

Only one way to find out set up a friendly.
Until then it’s all just Wild speculation.😉

Not fair too compare EFL with WSL. The difference in physicality would be overwhelming. Skill levels on the other hand much closer.
