No new manager

[Sir Cheshire Ben]

Ehab is the DOF!

Is DOF Swahili for ****?

 

[Dills double deckers]

Yeah I know. Since he did so **** with Fulham and west brom.....

Hodgeson needs a break from football. You can see he is emotionally wrecked after the Euros. The last thing he would need would be our owners and a disgruntled fans base.. Before the England job yeah but not now

 

[What? A full dog?]

How long has Bruce been back in the mix?

I like the idea of a Keane / Pearson dream team. Would be great being a fly on the wall in the meeting where ehab tells them there is no cash for players. It would probably take dna testing to identify him afterwards.

I'm guessing the Allams will be discussing any new permanent managerial appointment with the interested parties that they intend to continue discussing the sale of the club to, in September.

Anybody know who the other three names are that Sky are reporting as on a five man shortlist?

Obviously there's Martinez & Archer, but who are the other three?

You said, and I quote, 'New manager to be in charge before Austria trip.'

If you'd said 'New manager intended to be in charge before Austria trip' then there wouldnt be an issue.

"to be in charge" isn't definitive, particularly as I followed up with a comment suggesting that was the intent of the owners. It was pretty straight forward.

I didn't realise that Chaz's real name was Martinez.

You have also noticed the continental flair to his match day threads?

It was his penchant for siesta that sealed it.

Question is anybody going to take over with no cash available? To put an almost guaranteed relegation on there cv

There may well be cash available.

 

[BrAdY]

There may well be cash available.

i suspect there will be a decent transfer kitty available

Spain..... Holiday !!!

USA holiday!

Not like big betting companies to fully suspend bets unless either they know something or betting patterns shift

Ehab's put £100 million on it at the bookies!

Not sure of this has already been mentioned. City looking for a Head coach rather than manager according to SSN last night. In other words, no control of transfers which will be decided by 'the board'.

True colours.

Finally some praise.

All transfers were sanctioned by the board under Steve Bruce. He said it enough times.

Yes. Steve Bruce suggested targets and they gave him money. The proposed structure would see the board picking the targets.

One manager on the shortlist is a "big name" from abroad.

Mancini is about to quit Inter..?

Surely a short name would be more successful?

 

[originallambrettaman]

There's five names on the shortlist, including at least one "big name" from abroad, appointment to be made next week (Yorkshire Post).
