    Hope not! Leeds have a decent squad. Having a manager who doesn’t seem capable of using the whole squad, or getting the best out of them suits us fine.

    A Sunderland fella, and his daughter, were on the train back to Edinburgh yesterday ...

    ... he said to put money on Rodgers going to Forest and wasn't what you'd say was a waffler.

    I can't abide him but I think he'd do a better job than the others who've been mentioned.

    His problem is that he’s a really unpleasant man.

    People will tolerate his manner, his snide digs at the opposition and his appalling never-changing haircut …

    … but as soon as his team struggles the fans lose patience quickly.

    In my opinion of course, I wouldn’t want to be personal <laugh>

    I can see that happening, he'd actually be a good fit there and it's known he's not happy at Celtic. He's had a few rumbles about recruitment and I'm sure his contract is up soon. Like you, I can't abide him, there's always been something about him that rings false to me, but he'd definitely suit them.

    I said before, he looks like the kind of angry wino you see hanging around a bus station or outside a tube station in London, the ones you avoid eye contact with.

    I suppose you can't help the way you look, but he hardly helps himself.

    He seems to deliberately have his hair looking exactly the same level of unkempt at all times ( which of course must mean it's how he wants it) and generally looks as if he lives in a hedge.

    And then he has this unfortunate high pitched voice when he speaks. Weird combo all that.

    Gives rise to a couple of chants

    He lives in a hedge,
    He lives in a hedge,
    Daniel Farke.
    He lives in a hedge!

    Or

    What's in your hedge? What's in your hedge?
    Farke! Farke! Daniel Farke!

    'Beleaguered Dundee provided the shock of the Scottish Premiership season so far by beating Celtic at home for the first time in 37 years to leave Brendan Rodgers' side five points off top spot.
    After Celtic fans' protest against the board delayed the start of the play as the pitch had to be cleared of balls, travelling supporters were only further angered by another flat showing.'

    I came across an Australian Football forum, their views on Postecoglu are "interesting". Most are massive supporters of him, only a few dissenting voices. Reading some of it, the problem for me is that the positive fans almost seem to put him in the same class as Pep or Klopp and talk about him getting big club jobs, even making excuses for him. I get it, he's an Australian manager managing in one of the most high profile leagues in the world, so he's a trailblazer and role model. But it does seem that they can't appreciate how badly he's done since in his last 18 months. After his first 3 months at Spurs, results and performances regressed, getting worse and worse, then he's carried on that way with Forest. He's basically finished as a head coach in any major league, because no-one will look at him taking the last 2 jobs he's had into account.
