John Askey of Macclesfield appears to be the new favourite, and would be a good choice in my opinion.

David Hopkin, who has now left Livingston, is also being linked.

Sol Campbell is available and he is great*.

*As claimed by Sol Campbell.

Tisdale if he doesn’t go to MK?

The only question about Askey is can he do it with another club as he seems to have an affinity with Macc. A bit like John Coleman and Keith Hill.

Askey would be useless at another club with actual genuine ambitions and targets. Steer well clear if I were you.

It’s got Paul Dickov written all over it

Welcome John Askey, happy with that choice.

Commiserations Silkmen, we know how you feel.

Good move for John and good luck to him, he deserves it. He'll have to get used to actually giving interviews though!!

 

[Indian Dan]

At least he’ll keep you entertained if the football is crap

John deserves the chance at a bigger club. After years of him being linked to Grimsby and Wrexham every time they lose a manager it's a relief he's finally made his decision.
