    The timescales haven’t been taken out of proportion

    The people involved and the approach being taken maybe, rather than the actual set up.

    To be fair mate, Robbie Keane was coming here every transfer window throughout the 00s, so they may not be far off.

    I feel like I’m contacting you via a medium but will we be happy? Is it, gulp, imminent?

    You don't have to contact him at all, he's given you a reply ... take it or leave it.

    I think you would probably find Speakman playing jungle music at 3 o clock in the morning.

    How is it a disgrace? We knew we weren't getting 1 till the end of the season . It hasn't happened yet doesn't mean it's a disgrace

    Weirdly I think if it ends up being Cifuentes I’d be happier with that outcome than getting Rosenior or Jansen

    What type of football do Cifuentes play, can't say I have took much notice of QPR

    It's all just talk. The reality is that we were level pegging last season with QPR, a head coach isn't going to care about stadium size or history. He's gonna want job security, a say in transfers, ability to bring in his people, a good salary, ambition shown by those above him.

    Don't know much about him but seems like he's done a good job with QPR.

    If it seems far fetched to anyone that we could snag him, according to Transfermarkt (for what it's worth) we were the 7th biggest spenders and QPR were bottom so you'd think a manager with ambition would see it as a step up.

    Really wouldn't surprise me if it was the fan base that was putting people off the job

    Definitely. I'd put Cifuentes alongside Röhl as almost best case scenario from the names linked.

    We've invested loads more in our playing squad recently than QPR if people want to talk about 'ambition' (eurgh), we've a squad of technical players that are more suited to his style than QPR. Most of the reason we were 'level pegging' with them last season is because they had him and we didn't.

    I've just come in so it may have already been mentioned but Parker 5/4 favourite for the Burnley job, Rosenior down to 4/1. If Parker gets it does Rosenior come crawling back to us?
