Who will it be?

Following Richard Money's departure the speculation of who may be his replacement is rife. What is  fact is there are only 92 jobs and lots of ex managers without a job, ex players looking for the opportunity and others who been neither. We have excluded anyone currently at Cambridge United from the list below as it unfair to do so.

The magic of football is that it could be anyone and a total surprise, however everyone can have fun trying to predict the name.

One certainty is that whoever it is, will have to understand and work within the structure of the club and also be able to  work with the Youth Development Scheme and be willing to pick them.

Here are some of the names circulating around the social media -

Nigel Clough - Previous manager of Burton, Derby and Sheffield United. He is the son of Brian Clough and is a former Nottingham Forest and Liverpool player. Played for England.  He is available following his departure from Sheffield United where he reached the FA Cup and League Cup Semi Finals.

Chris Wilder -  Linked with the position in the past. Has been manager for Oxford and Halifax previously. Currently manager at Northampton who are going through a difficult period financially and also through the current club structure. Experienced at this level

Chris Powell - Left Huddersfield today. Formerly manager at Charlton

Two former Leeds United managers are available Ure Rosler and Brian McDermott may come into the frame. Ure Rosler has manged Brentford and Wigan while Brian has managed at Slough, Woking and Reading.

Other managers who are currently available Micky Adams, Paul Dickov. Terry Butcher , Dave Penney, Sean O'Driscoll (ex England Under 19 manager) and Graham Alexander
