Depressingly i agree with DM. Lets see what the summer brings, i live in hope. Although i must say it doesn't fill me with optimism when AR is already selling off a percentage to raise some funds. Where are all the Billionaires? Come and join us, i dare you.

Please no.

I don't want another crook at the club.
I'll keep saying this whenever someone suggests it.

It's got nothing to do with the turgid hoofball the man encourages, though that doesn't help either.


Thankfully, he'll be WAY out of our league financially and I doubt he'd drop down a division for anybody anyway.
He'll bide his time, go back to being a pundit for a bit and then wait for whoever is struggling next season in the Prem and get himself another six month role with a big, fat bonus for staying up .. ad infinitum.

I agree with you Rigz. How that man still gets a job, let alone in the PL, is beyond me.

Hate is a strong word to use but I make an exception with him. As you pointed out Rigz, there's no chance he'd come to us anyway as he would want a ridiculous salary - thank god.

The guy really is a world class numpty.

Until he gets relegated, then he's finished.
I once played against Don Revie.

He gets results though.
I can see why a nervy chairman would give him the job.

Like John said elsewhere, he's happy with a 0-0 against the bottom club. So long as he doesn't lose ..

José's not much better in terms of grinding out results, but he actually wins trophies along the way.
Speaking of Mourinho, I'm stunned more Man U fans aren't kicking off about the style of play under him given their supposed propensity for attacking football. How much longer do you think it'll last, this cautious relationship between him and the fans.
Unless he looks like winning the league next season, I think he'll be gone by Xmas.

Yep, as we'll now see with Pardew I would think. I can't see anyone else giving him a gig.

I can't see it unless they're struggling in the league like Chelsea were when he got sacked there. He's said on a few occasions this season that they're in a transitional period. He also has the support of the board, Sir Alex etc but I do agree, it's really boring watching them especially when they're playing one of the top teams.

God no. Don't want anyone who brings the game into disrepute, especially whilst England manager. He should never work again in this country imo.

Yes there is probably alot more like him, but for me when you have the privilege of managing your country the last thing on your mind should be bungs. He possible realized he could earn £6m in 18months at Everton and wanted some extra cash as national boss?

His most successful job in Football even turned out to be corrupt. The then owner of Bolton Eddie Davis was dealing in illusion money. Its the equivalent of having Ken Bates has the manager.

Bung... Cheers ANS :thumbup:

It wasn't bribes though was it? It was more about 'bungs' and unlicensed payments I think, could well be wrong of course. George Graham was the same, and Brian Clough too. Puncheon was pretty much accusing Warnock of the same not too long back, and there were similar rumours about NW when he was here.
