    In which case you lose your money and The Telegraph and K Billy have been strung along.

    It could happen!

    I'm in no way saying I'm qualified in recruiting managers of football clubs, but this Puel sounds the sort of guy a newly promoted team should be trying to get in, not one playing in Europe and trying to progress on to even bigger things. Granted MP had a similar CV but we were a bottom half team when he took over, things have changed majorly since then in my eyes.

    Again I'm only going on what I can see and read about him, on paper his record hardly stands out does it. People are probably going to cry when I say this but for where we are right now as a club and the plans we have to progress, I would say it shows a lack of ambition and I would be pretty dissapointed if we appointed him.

    Obviously I would stand by any decision Les makes and would give him a chance to prove me wrong, but right now, Puel is a big fat no from me.

    Which would be my downfall (I went to the lengths of covering FdB as well)

    It's progressing at the same speed as the managerial process. :)

    If this is true, then Garcia being appointed is a formality now:



    OTOH, look at the twitter handle...

    The guy who's narrating that vid has a voice as obnoxious as the guy who narrates Saints' official videos

    Well, that proves that this "ITKReporter" is as clueless as her username, then.

    And at 29, he would be outside our general age for buying players, although Pelle also broke that rule.

    I use Sky Bet and the odds yesterday when I put money down were Garcia (4/6), FdB (6/1) and Puel (14/1)

    Garcia has shifted slightly to 5/6 and Puel has plummeted to 2/1. FdB is a non-mover.
