If I was them, I'd probably contemplate getting Paul Cook.

Did a really decent job at Portsmouth and Wigan and knows what it takes to get promoted.

Might even get Will Grigg firing who has been a massive flop since he went there.

Paul Cook's odds have been cut overnight but Gus Poyet is still the favourite to make a return. I liked Gus so would be nice to see him come back for a second stint but I can see it being Cook as he's been in this league before and has the experience.

It should be Kevin Phillips. The club is dead with hardly anything left to lose.

I'm sure you wish that ;)

But what if this new owner comes in and appoints a decent Chairman and Manager. Things could finally take a turn for them after a miserable few years.

If Kevin Phillips is that manager they'll be bouncing. Maybe even more patient if they go up.

Yeah I get your point, he’s a massive outsider anyway. 
 

Poyet is now odds on favourite for a return.

This could be a very astute appointment if he's given the correct resources.

Sets up Paul Cook to Derby if their new owners have common sense.

Quite happy with Lee Johnson. It'll be interesting to see how he goes about changing the misfortunes on the pitch. Only heard mostly good things about him from the Bristol City fans I've spoken to.

Lee Johnson sacked tonight 

Strange decision I think. Yes 6.0 is a terrible result but when you are 3rd in the league seems like a panic reaction to me. I dont think one result should cause a manager to be  sacked it should be a succession of results

City fans tend to be more patient than alot of fans for some reason. Most are happy with Pierson. And by the way of anyone disagrees I live in Bristol and talk to a lot of them

Wigan, Rotherham and Sunderland seemed certs for promotion two weeks ago. Amazing how owners can derail everything so quickly.

Roy Keane has been offered the job

He did well at sunderland to be fair. But his record at Ipswich was terrible. And it clearly was because of him because they were better before and after he was there until recently.

The issue is his temperament. Screaming and shouting all day doesn't work in  now days.  And nor should it in my opinion. People deserve respect at work. Especially when you are doing the best you can and you are still getting yelled at it can he demoralising. So it will be interesting to see how he does
