Lincoln must be an attractive job at the moment, so I am sure we will not be short of applications. We have a good football team and backroom setup.
The Cowleys have been amazing in their time at Lincoln. They will have a big job on at Huddersfield though. They haven't had any say in this Huddersfield team, the transfer window has closed and they are left with a team of "big" players until the end of the year. Will these players listen to them and go along with them?? How will the Huddersfield players look at the Cowleys?? Successful football managers or PE teachers?? It will be a challenge. There will be a lot of pressure to improve results too, and quickly. It is a different kettle of fish to the situation at Lincoln, that is for sure.
Huddersfield do have parachute payments, but they are only a top ten Championship team at best. I cannot see Huddersfield establishing themselves in the Premier League. However, as a stepping stone to the West Ham job?
I wonder if Nigel Adkins is the man for the job, maybe until the end of the season. He is a very personable and positive person who would keep the city and wider area on side. He has had promotions with Scunthorpe and Southampton, so knows the league. He did well at Hull but less so at Reading and Sheffield United. He lives locally too.
Just a thought, but he is certainly a safe pair of hands in the short term.
