Jol leads poll for Wigan job
Former Spurs boss Martin Jol is leading the fans poll for the next manager of Wigan Athletic on Vital Wigan by some way
The bookies favourite, former Rangers, Liverpool, Newcastle and Blackburn boss, Graeme Souness is down the pecking order in 3rd place
Some betting firms have suspended trade on Souness claiming it is a done deal and are expecting him to be unveiled next Monday after the weekend game at Tottenham
Who ever it is going to be they need to be given the reigns as soon as possible so that they can make a fair assessment of the playing staff at the JJB before the transfer window opens at the end of next month
To participate in the poll just click on your choice of manager and hit the submit button, it can be accessed on the right side of this page

There's no point discussing Jol, he won't be coming to Wigan.

Jol is 5/2 favourite with a few bookies.(well he was at 11 this morning)

jol?, wigan!? dont make me laugh

Martin Jol would be a great asset to your club. If you succeed in getting him on board you will get to mid table at the least. He was only ousted at Spurs due to our inept board at Tottenham. Good luck in any case.
dogman
We have an inept board at Tottenham only to the extent that they have a mole and cannot seem to prevent leaks to the press. The decision to remove JOL was wise and well thought through. What he could do for Wigan might be a different matter but what he proved at Spurs is that he had taken the team as far as he could. Now that might be salvation for Wigan but after ££££££ spent at WHL not good enough!

Jol has just come out and said he would love to come back to Spurs one day - well how about next Sunday in his first game in charge of Wigan!!! Oh the irony would kill me!!! It's a game Spurs just simply have to win but if Jol was in charge and we lost - I'd probably have to have a secret inner smirk!!!! Lol. COYS
comeonyouspurs
Jol still leading poll, so we know who is the fans choice
worbo
Haha that would be awesome if Jol was the new manager - like him a lot. Can't say I'm fond of my fellow Scotsman Souness - despite all he's done, I still don't rate him as a manager.
Pardew is Sexy
I thought Jol was lined up for a Dutch job!
merlin
I think you would be better off getting somebody like Pearce. Jol will want £100million to waste!!!

Jol is for new PSV coach..but still would good to see him here
upthedale
Jol, Souness, Coleman? Lets hope its the right appointment for the right reasons
worbo
Thought jol was of to PSV? but reports say this morning that bookies have stopped taking bets on Souness as he is set to be named as your new boss very shortly?
will it ever happen
I think he would take the PSV job first no offence. I like MJ but i wouldnt like him to manage my club, hes too nice to get angry at and that is perhaps a bad thing.

You lot sure you want him? he managed to win them spuds sweet feck all for three years you know...
Blue is the colour
Weve never won owt, or so everyone keeps tellin us
worbo
If I was you, I´d go for Pearce instead. He´d do better than Jol, no doubt.
Blue is the colour
