Not my best choice, not my worst.
If Wilder is out of the running, I'd rather have McCann than Manning.

 - More experience as a player - which I think players respect. 
 - Young enough to relate to the players, old enough to liaise with a DoF. (Had to handle Barry Fry at 'boro)
 - More experience of success with Hull and Doncaster.
 - Has experience of promotion, relegation, takeovers, COVID...

Will probably bring coach Cliff Byrne with him. 
From the fluffy, cosy, touchy-feely Cowley school of coaching think of that drill sergeant from Full Metal Jacket.

So, not ideal in my book but it could work...
Personally I think manning would of been decent 2 weeks ago but has got to the point were a task master is needed and some home truths told
Pick of an uninspiring bunch.
To be fair we do need an arse kicker right now.
Wonder if he is on gardening leave like Richardson is or did the manage to come to a agreement regarding the rest of his contract
A no nonsense arsehole is what is required and the fans will resonate

Interesting read about McCann.

...and rather worrying too!
Cowley continued then. We are fucked.
