I think Bournemouth's success under Howe was down to his ability to get the best out of his players. I think their squad overachieved and it's very rare that another manager can come in and have the same impact.I know they've dropped down a divsion but the Championship is a tough league. I think Pearson is the manager they need, he is exactly the sort of manager who gets the best out of his players and has experience of getting teams out of the Championship.

Weeell Saints v Spurs 1978 still lurking in the background for some of a certain vintage.

I fully expect Bournemouth will be a selling club and all their better players will be leaving, and they will be facing a relegation fight in the Championship. It would therefore be a backward step for a manager of CH's quality.
Combine that with the lack of quality training facilities and the new ground being moth balled, it becomes an unattractive job.

Muff have been punching above their weight for some time on the back of Eddie’s man management and style with a group of decent players, but with absolutely no infrastructure behind it. They will have to sell some players and those remaining will be pretty downbeat. Kiss of death for any decent manager wanting to go in there and develop themselves or the club.
I don’t see them being as good as Norwich in the yo-yo stakes.

I recall him and his brother being at Braintree or somewhere in Essex...so should be okay to come back south. Good fit and sacked more about future direction rather than past attainment...musical differences etc.

Didn’t he let them down years ago?
Said he was going to take the job at Selhurst, then stood on the steps of Dean Court and said “Bournemouth till I die”, and then promptly went to Burnley a week later
I think when Hodgson finally goes they will promote Ray Lewington internally.

You mean through the gastrointestinal tract? I'd pay money to see that
Top post on the Stanley thread BTW. I didn't reply as I didn't want to bounce a thread that's best left to sink beneath the waves....

I think he'd do pretty badly, possibly even relegate them. Palace have survived the last few years due to Hodgson drilling the shit out of them defensively and relying on Zaha in attack. Howe is useless defensively and is all about the ball and attack. Palace's squad is spectacularly unsuited to Howe's style of football, especially if Zaha leaves.

Hughton would be a much better fit at Palace than Howe and I would be surprised if he wasn't in the frame for the job. It was reported that talks between Bristol City and Hughton hit a hitch a few days ago.
