    I think we need a new coach in the guise of that psycho Turkish prison guard in 'Midnight Express'.

    I can’t wait for them to see our state of the art portacabins.

    Not sure I like his statement of wanting a team in the UK filled with Turkish players and a Turkish manager.

    Derby got free agent Sam Baldock - on a shoestring budget.

    Unlikely a Turkish manager with no experience of the English championship would be able to cut it.

    Why? There must be a couple who've managed at European level?

    Do you think we'd have paid his wage?

    Again, this is the club that publicly admitted it couldn't afford to keep Reece Burke.

    Slutsky Mk. II springs to mind. Could be another disaster.

    It'll work or it won't. I doubt they'll invest tens of millions required to get us close to the premier league and then recruit/ keep a manager based purely on their nationality.

    If a few Turkish prospects get an opportunity and fly high here over the next few years, why would that be inherently bad?

    They're buying an English club. They could be buying a Turkish club if they wanted one.

    Of course the media guy isn't putting all the money in. He's fronting the deal but City won't be his whim - he'll have backers to keep happy.

    And once a deal is done, the EFL will have to ratify the backers.

    Depends what you believe. Burke didn’t want to stay. He wasn’t any better than what we currently have. Absence does strange things to peoples perceptions of a player.

    If we must have a Turkish coach, let's have a stylish old skool one

    On Look North round up, Peter Levy notes grimly we are now one place above relegation positions, while non league grimsby's win against Wrexham is described as a 'great night at Blundell Park'

    Reality check needed for the yellowbelly **** who writes the sports headlines at Look North

    289A7F1B-1DAE-4FA4-BEE2-4972C53334C0.jpeg I know there’s only one stat that’s actually important, but if you didn’t know the score the rest look like an improvement

    Yeah, just looks like we're a bit of 'championship nous' in both boxes away from being competitive.

    At least we are beating every team in the league on offsides. We are excellent at it.
