    Cifuentes could arguably be the best option we’ve been linked with all summer and we may end up accidentally forcing ourselves to appoint him.

    I’ll admit - I don’t know much about him other than he kept QPR up comfortably when they looked dead and buried. 2 wins from 14 when he arrived…

    Football is an emotional sport. No idea if Mowbray told Slaven what to say tbh? Not a surprise, if he was feeling bruised, he confessed to mates. Maybe it is Bernie that is the problem?

    I thought Rosenior would have been a good appointment (still do) but Cifuentes is imo next level.

    Can’t see Cifuentes being the announcement tomorrow tho. No way that one doesn’t leak once we agree comp with QPR

    Cheers mate.

    Hopefully a resolution to all this tomorrow.

    We might hopefully get a new signing too

    Not getting carried away but I've just signed up for an account on the QPR site so I can watch their matches and get an idea of what to expect.

    If there is announcement tomorrow can't see it being Marti Cifuentes would be too much noise by now

    I agree, partly because I'm sticking with the idea that I just don't see it.

    But I'm pretty sure Alex Neil to Stoke went quickly from betting odds related rumours, to press conference cancellation, to him being at their stadium watching them play, so it does happen.

    There's a WhatsApp doing to rounds where Wayne Rooney is asked about us, and Rooney only had negative stuff to say which came from Mowbray

    Thanks mate. Will do. His QPR job isnt the big deal imo, nor fit with us. Not against him at all, but will appreciate a different experience to the QPR one to convince me

    @Magnus liked the post about Heckingbottom so you'd have to assume he's getting different info to Bob.

    I posted earlier about his QPR squad being full of experience - loads of it tbh. That’s ideal when you go into a tough situation. He’d inherit a totally different squad here… Might mean very little, who knows.

    With all respect mate, I cannot imagine Mowbray giving much away to Rooney. I appreciate they have the brum connection, but it would be a big surprise if he gave away his Sunderland views. Might be wrong, but Mowbray just doesnt come across as a bloke with time for **** spreading outside of his close circle.

    I’ve no problem with Mowbray, or you, but in this case you’re either naive or …
