    It could be a response to his injury and he's not quite right yet but I think Clarke had been playing within himself since he came back into the team

    i think clarke would stay but we just can't match what prem clubs would offer it would need a meet in the middle on both sides for that to happen and i don't think harte will want to miss out on his big pay day

    Shame but I think we’ve all resigned ourselves to him going which will soften the blow

    I'm glad he never got the job. He's a right prick.

    I think he knows Clarke's form, and value, could collapse ...

    ... so he'll know he may have one chance to take a big fee.

    Positive news on all fronts, for me.

    But Kyril needs a rethink, I was wondering earlier if he could hire some advisors.

    What about Ole Gunnar Solskjaer? He's not working at the moment as far as I know.

    Kyril has plenty of advisors - they just don’t work at the club. Kyril is our owner, but it’s the Dreyfus family’s reputation that is on the line. Very serious people.

    i think some changes will come this summer and to be honest i don't think speakmen being here is a concrete as it was a couple of weeks ago

    2 americans are still interested in juans bit , links to fulwell 73 but to be honest i'm not sure if KLD has actually made his mind up yet about taking the rest or not, i still think the poyet talk in the paper was abit stange the other day. why talk to someone about a coach when your sporting director is there for that. unless confidence is lost between them ...

    That makes sense. But what type of people are they? Experienced English football people and a broad spectrum of them is needed.

    I'm not against this. He did a good job at United, managing one of the biggest clubs in the world through a period of transition and added pressure that comes with the job at Old Trafford.

    I would see him as a bit of a coup, but I don't think it will happen.

    I think it's the worst kept secret in football that it's going to be Will Still.

    Not certain on specific people, however there are certainly range of personnel that he can lean on. And does.

    There might be a reason for that. I think his star is waning.
    But what do I know.

    He would be a cracking appointment imo, think it would be hard to get him - he turned down Ajax last summer
