    Doesn't seem to have many fans at his former clubs, not a great sign.

    I like his begging last minute e mail for signings. Also the fact he failed to deliver almost every player Dyche wanted at Burnley. Ehab will ****ing love that - the **** him.

    It's seems his title is actually Head of Recruitment, rather than Director of Football.

    Let us hope he's more successful at recruiting than he has been in previous roles. As frankly reading reports he's been ****.

    I hope not, can you imagine the tiers of hierarchy that would need to be gone through and be satisfied before making a decision?

    It says in the twitter that he left Norwich in April, now was that of his own accord, or was he shown the door, got to admit it a strange one to me.

    What a strange mix'n'match this is becoming. Still, let's get behind them and hope for the best.
