BUT, just maybe, someone new, not associated with the last 3 or 4 years might be the catalyst to kick start our faltering season, not an easy job but anything is probably better than recent matches, especially if Cowley or whoever is prepared to take a 12 match tenure, tries some attacking football (enough to warrant spending more Tenners on iFollow anyway).
Get Pompey into the Playoffs then win promotion ! What a CV enhancing achievement.
Eddie Howe is the one name who might unite the fans, that ain’t going to happen so we need to move on until the seasons end.
Reading todays News article on Cowley makes me change my mind about him. I only remembered his early time at Lincoln, I hadn't realised that since then he has become a convert to the Bielsa methods of high pressing and speedy attacking. If he brings that philosophy then I'd be quite happy to get the Cowleys permanently ... and he certainly comes across well on TV which is a bonus.
