There’s desperate and there’s desperate, TM will be thinking of pulling crackers mate not being crackers.

dunno, he strikes me as the kind who would want to be in a job and hate being out of work. I’d be surprised if he wasn’t in charge of another championship club by end of January.

When he left Blackburn, he made a whole thing about wanting to be closer to his family. It wouldn’t shock me if he waits a while for the next job

Before we appointed him, Mowbray was talking about taking a break and spending time with his family, so he may be in no rush to pick up another job, especially somewhere like Stoke
 
I 'm expecting him to be gone by Christmas at the latest.
I've been following the Oatcake forum for a few years now (lived in Stoke as a student and have a lot of Stokie mates) and they seem universal in their desire for him to go. It's hard to see how he can survive this but Stoke invested a lot in him and in the summer where they let him rebuild the squad. It wouldn't shock me if they give him a few more games.

He's not lost any of his arrogance - in his post match interview he admitted Stoke hadn't been very good but also said Sheff Wed weren't either.

Seems as though Sheff See were considerably better that thou
 
"Chairman John Coates said: “Alex is a man of absolute integrity who has given his all for Stoke City, and we would like to thank him for his hard work during his time with the Club."

Calling bullshit at that statement, any bloke who goes to sit and watch his perspective future employer instead of the team that he is still in charge of has no integrity.

Anyway, that's him basically finished for a good while. He was out of work for about a year after leaving Preston on a low edge before we took him on, walked out on us for Stoke and sacked by them just over a year later after taking them backwards. Helis stock is now low and in no way will he get a club of our or Stokes' size for his next job. League 1 or lower at best and not one with the set up he's had here (or Stoke for that matter, as they've been a fairly regular premiership team over the last 20 years).
 
That arrogant prick still won't admit it was a mistake to leave Sunderland.

No he won't. But he couldn't have done the job properly here mind. We are obviously going towards an overwhelmingly young side and squad make up and he likes older steady Eddies. He got us up though, so well done there. We got something out of each other.

See how he does at Fleetwood!
