Independent Leyton Orient Forum

Bookies favourite & was seen with Ling & Porter on Saturday. I hope not. Pretty ininspiring when caretaker before

No thank you.

Bookies favourite with who?

The words 'frying pan and fire' come to mind!

Don't see a betting market anywhere.

Presume that he might have got confused and didn't read the date on an article (Nugent was bookies favourite at one time under the Italians).

Not sure he would even be in contention, he's U23 manager at Millwall.

No way !!

Yeah, I didn't find anything either. Think he's just scaremongering.

Scaremongering. .

Care to explain?

Nugent is a good man, top bloke in fact, but no way would he be good enough as a number 1.

Hell no we will get somone 1 in who will be cheap but as long as he does good i dont care

Please God ,No

No thank you very much.

Would be a very strange appointment. What exactly qualifies him other than his Orient connections?

Someone posted a screenshot on the SUFTO site from a betting firm. It had a date in the address bar of Oct 2014

Odds aren't up yet but worth looking at the good, the bad and the ugly (Phil Brown) who have been chalked up for the Southend job, a less attractive choice than Orient I would argue even though they are a division above us. I've left Larsson and Waddock off the list below.

Phil Parkinson (decent choice)
Sol Campbell (no thanks)
Gary Rowett (be surprised if he dropped to L2)
Nigel Adkins (ditto Rowett)
Kevin Nolan (methinks not)
Michael Flynn (no reason to leave Newport)
Ian Holloway (god help us)
Gareth Ainsworth (ditto Flynn)
Owen Coyle (is his middle name really Columba? remember when he was decent manager))
Phil Brown (moving swiftly on)
Steve Lovell (been around forever but no pedigree at this level)
Darrell Clarke (no reason to .......)
Steve Evans (fortunately he's not available)
Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink (always on these lists but no)
Darren Currie (can't imagine they would go for him)
Nigel Pearson (please don't)
Stuart McCall (wouldn't be a bad shout)
Chris Powell (remember when he was a decent manager)

Nuge - someone is having a laugh.

Agree

Could the unthinkable happen? He returns along with Slade?
