No new manager

[GLP]

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

That will leave them 2 weeks to assess the squad and make any necessary signings? How come Sunderland can do this process in a matter of days?

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

There's a massive difference between the manager picking the targets and the owners sorting the deal and the owners picking and signing them.

I'd love to know what criteria Ehab plans to use. I'm sure he believes he's cracked this football lark and he can do a miles better job than Brucie.

Maybe he posts on here?

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

Mancini is about to quit Inter..?

We covered this yesterday.

I was thinking about Capello as it goes. He doesnt mind working for mental organisations that he seemingly shouldnt touch with a barge pole.

It's a worry.

Cracked football? The clueless **** can't even crack Google. That's why he's just signed a deal with a dodgy African betting company & their esteemed Capt.

If he'd Googled them it may even have helped him remember their name on the Alan Partridge produced promotional video.

Spain..... Holiday !!!

Being lined up for Wolves. A perfect fit I think.

Hoddle to come in and work with Clemence.

Neither Archer from the Faroes or Martinez from Benidorm are particularly big. My money is on Shinawatra from Thailand.

I must have missed it where does it say this?

I would guess the "big name" from abroad would be De Boer. Has been actively looking for a prem job this summer.

Sky Sports last night, said we were looking for a head coach, rather than a manager, as the board would be responsible for transfers.

I didn't see it, but it's what was posted earlier in this thread.

Now that would be nice.

It would but I still get the feeling Phelan is exactly the yes man that Ehab wants. Hope not, would be reasonably happy with Martinez but De Boer would be superb.

Who's Archer? I've missed this bit somewhere in the thread.

I knew obviously the De Boer brothers were twins, didn't realise that they were co-joined and separated at birth!
