Yep, 3-1 etc means nothing. When it is 4/5 etc then something is on.Just so you know, I put £83 (the max bet) on AVB on Betfair and his odds dropped from 9/1 to 3/1. Just shows how poor the liquidity is on these markets.
Ex-Manager Thread

Yeah for a while they were quite separate. But now this thread has taken over from the other one, I'll merge.
I think there is a calmness at the moment, that in the coming days will turn. Mud will be slung.
Won't Emery be managing in the CL, next season, following the Europa win?
Would he give that up?
Whoever we get, I hope it is very quick. Before the (F)lying Dutchman went on holiday, I was hopeful that we would have a reasonably settled summer, concentrating on extending contracts and bringing in one or two new guys, ASAP.
Now everything gets moved back weeks/months.
I'm open minded as to who the board bring in, although Howe would not be at the top of my wish list. As others have suggested, his time at Burnley was a disaster, and I'm not sure he "big" enough for the job. His experience, at the top level (as a player) is zero and his experience as a manager, at EPL level is just one season, in which Bournemouth struggled for chunks of it. And, following our disastrous Europa League, last season, do we really want a novice in the dugout?

I like Howe, but he needs to be left where he is. The last thing we need is a tug of war with Bompey played out in the media, and that's what would happen. He is not worth it.
That's okay for me as I don't think we'll make an appointment before the Euros starts so I've got a few days of this to keep me going before it's time to set up camp on the Euro thread

"Emery AVB Moyes Howe... It was so funny to see some down-market nationals link us with Martinez! If Pearson hadn't gone to Derby, no doubt he'd have been touted too.
