so ex Celtic Fulham player John Collins latest name in the frame and the Rangers Cafc fans light up Twitter with the hate . Used to love Mark Reid back in he day and he was a quality left back for us these boys would of hated him due to the Celtic connection. I can't stand Palace BUT if we bought Bolassie I wouldn't complain . I don't remember the hate when we signed Johannson from any of our fans with a Celtic persuasion due to his Rangers connection. Or Salem Kurker ...he was just crap no one disliked him purely for his Rangers roots. Re Collins in reality don't care if he gets the job or not he's out of work now so available reasonably cheap but like anyone else under this mob makes not a jot of difference to me to be fair as he would have to tow the company line .
Seems a strange one if true. The bottom line is who on earth is advising Meire about the likes of George Concur and John Collins? She has already demonstrated on numerous occasions that she is woefully unqualified and incompetent when it comes to taking footballing decisions. I was struck by the comment of the fan who met her at the Telegraph BOS event last week - he said she couldn't stay to talk as she said she was off to interview a Chief Scout. Mind-blowing.
Christ these names are hardly awe inspiring. The worst thing is, we aren't seen as a good move by managers of Rochdale, Northampton and **** clubs like that. Utterly depressing.
Just had a quick look at Keith Hill's career - half decent job at Rochdale twice in Leagues One and Two - rather less impressive with Barnsley. Another 5/10 appointment at best if it happens
I've no idea what John Collins has been doing. Maybe Roland is expanding his philosophy of signing players who can't get a game anywhere to managers as well. This really would be scraping the barrel. Maybe he's been abroad and doesn't know what he'd be walking into. Good player in his day, might need to bring his boots.
he's been assistant manager at celtic, i read. that's gotta be a higher level than carol fry? prem championship scottish prem league 1 league 2 goals in beckenham belgian premier league belgian L1 belgian L2 (carol fry here)
Looks like Keith Hill's agent has put the story out there because Blackburn are dragging their heels over appointing him. Nice one.
Reams will be a happy chappy today, what with his football club appointing a promising young British manager. Cardiff have just confirmed Paul Trollope as their new gaffer.
The league Carol was managing in was regional so it its even worse than you would imagine Belgium third division would be.
John Collins shows we are going down the cheap route again. I keep thinking John Barnes and Tranmere for some reason.
The story feels like an Agent phoning Rich Cawley to me. John Collins ? Katrine wouldn't know John Collins from Joan Collins...
After Carol left,their form improved dramatically, and they were top of the table last I looked. Don't know where they ended up.
