    Looks like he's goung to land the Forest job. Bit of a gamble if you ask me. He's not managed since leaving Wolves in 2006. Claims he has turned down 26 firm offers but has always refused until his Spanish Academy could run itself.

    Views?

    According to Matt his ego is massive. That will always be a problem in lower league footie. Gotta say, anyone who counts how many job offers they've turned down must be a bit of a mug.

    By the way, I've turned down 27

    If I were a Forest fan, I'd rather Mick. But, as we know he's no mug, so he turned them down.
    I have a feeling the new owners might not be what the fans are hoping for, but we'll see.

    Never easy taking over a newly aquired team when the owners will want instant success. Not got alot of time for Hoddle but if the cash is there I would think Hoddle can spend his way out of the Championship.

    You know Jen, I was going to make some comment about his (strange) relegious beliefs... another reason why I don't like him.

    It will take a few years to turn Forest into a top six side. Hope they've all got the patience for it.

    Yeah well it's Hoddle's beliefs that are offensive so I don't see anything wrong with mocking him. I wouldn't mock someone simply for believing in God, but if you believe that **** about disabled people then you deserve abuse.

    He's got a job on his hands there.
    Didn't Le Tiss's book say that his biggest problem was trying to Get Le Tiss off the McDonalds and into healthy eating?

    Good luck with Andy Reid then!

    I can't personally see him taking the job, but I wish him the best of luck if he does take it.
