It's times like this I think Onionman has the right idea . Stay away from the board .
Assuming he actually does have the will power to not even have a sneaky peek

I'm assuming we are talking about Manuel Pellegrini, the Chilean football manager, rather than Pellegrino, the Italian fizzy water manufacturer?
Nope. Pellegrini and Pellegrino are two different managers. Grini is our Chilean friend, Grino is the Argentinian manager of Alavez.
Yes, a slight fear that it could happen. But the 'I thought they had ambitions.., but clearly something must have changed' statement aside, he wouldn't be the worst appointment ever.
Favourite for the Palace job. Seems to be en vogue.

Looks okay on paper, but hardly thrilling. Was assistant at Liverpool for a bit so open to jokes on that front.
If that's our shortlist, I'd have to go with De Boer. Was a success at Ajax and good with the youngsters. Inter didn't work out for whatever reason , but they are a weird club recently.
De Boer was bad at Inter even for how bad Inter are. He wasn't that good at Ajax either, I would pass.
How about Avram Grant? He's finished runners up in both the champions league, and premier league, plus would be a ''under the radar'' appointment.
Not many Ajax fans liked his style of football. My cousin lives in Amsterdam and went to a lot of their games. De Boer played a possession type of football, with loads of side passing. The fans hated it.

If you're looking for a joke, here's one for you. West Ham spent £8m on Jose Fonte.
