    Marco Silva joins us tomorrow on an 18 month deal. 39 year old Portuguese manager, ex-Olympiacos and Sporting Club de Portugal. Comes with his own backroom staff. There's some money to spend as well.

    Sounds a bit of a gamble.

    Not heard of him but that's not saying much in relation to European coaches.

    What's the consensus on the 'Ull board?

    We nearly all seem pretty upbeat to be honest. Although he doesn't know English football let alone the EPL he has quite an impressive CV. What's more important is that this looks like an appointment by a new owner other than the current arseholes.

    Must be a bit like the Sheff Wed manager - never had heard of him but he seems to be doing a good job too!

    He has a good cv and a good record. If given the right resources he will actually do well.
