David Cotterill anybody?

[silent majority]

Just terminated his contract with Birmingham City

[IDM]

We could do a lot worse, but would he come back?

[Dutch Uncle]

Yes  please. Best crosser of a ball we have had, maybe ever.

[Donnybax]

Would love to have him back, but he would have no position in this team.

[Bentley Bullet]

What a Christmas present. Yes please!

[Dare to dream!]

Fergie doesn’t play with enough width for him to fit in.

[Retdon1]

I thought he was at Birmingham

[DearneValleyRover]

A big yes

[silent majority]

I thought he was at Birmingham

Yes he was, corrected now.

[Chris Black come back]

Other folk have hit nail on head. Our current manager does not play with ‘traditional’ wide players and Cotterill was named Man Least Likely To Track Back and Tackle for a record breaking eight consecutive seasons. Shame, as he was a grand player and probably still at this level.

[bobjimwilly]

would love him back

[GazLaz]

No.

[glosterred]

How match fit would he be having not played that much this season. Might take a while to catch up with the level of fitness required. But as IDM said would he come back, would he want to?

[CrippyCooke]

I'd absolutely take him back!

[phil o sophical]

Marquis would certainly benefit from someone like him

[andysly]

Rose tinted glasses folks. Cotterill had a great first 6 months of that promotion season before becoming totally anonymous when Saunders left.
Fantastic crosser of ball, good dead ball too and yes Marquis would thrive if Cotterill has right attitude, however it’s a big if.

[Alan Southstand]

Not for me. We have too many who can't/won't track back and help the full backs. Sorry, players who are masquerading as full backs.

[Lincoln Rover]

Agreed an excellent crosser and dead ball player. However on my humble opinion he took laziness to a whole new level.

[graingrover]

a big Yes from me !

[the vicar]

Fergie doesn’t play with enough width for him to fit in.

yes he does that is where Marquis usually is not in front of goal where a striker should be

[mushRTID]

Yes

[DonnyOsmond]

Hell yeah.

[the vicar]

To lazzzeee and dint want to be here in the end last time

[Donnywolf]

Hell yeah 2 !

[LincolnDonny]

why have people back that were lazy.........Birmingham who couldnt beat there way out of a paperbag ,let him go?

NO NO NO

[DonnyOsmond]

He contributed to around 30 goals in one season. Daft to say no.

[since-1969]

A bit loopy by all accounts .

[Sprotyrover]

Has he sorted his private life out, that's the reason he left us as I recall.

[Bentley Bullet]

A bit loopy by all accounts .

He'd be a big inspiration to a few of our fans then.

[Donnywolf]

.... and he was not afraid to s-h-o-o-t from long range with some effect !
