I think the biggest issue for people is the fact he’s been the number 1 target for so long and the club haven’t been able to close the deal, despite having plenty time.

I’ve listened to podcasts he’s done and read loads of articles about him and his tactics and I just think he’s a good fit.
Yeah that’s my point if we wanted him we should of got him weeks ago
 
Can’t see it, he will 100% be the Lens manager if you ask me.

Lens are a big club, gates on par with ours, and finished a few pints off 4th place ...

... I really don't think their supporters would be thrilled with Still being handed the job.

It would be like Gary O’Neil being given the Man Utd imo, just can't see it happening despite what's been said.

You could say the same about Lens tbh.
 
The thought of him playing us off each other in his contract negotiations irks me somewhat

"Yes but SUNDERLAND said..."

Take a hike pumpkin pubes

(I think he's pegged it over there and he's not coming back)
I think the mileage in that is limited if he wants the Lens job, they’re in a pretty strong position and their answer is probably “ great, go and manage them then.”

Doubt they’d get 38k in ligue 2. They are a decent club and a great opportunity though. If they are serious about him it would be a strange decision to come here if we’re honest.

Lens only just lost their manager, in fact I don't think that's even official yet. How were they meant to do that?

On Still - 'everything is being done to get him'.

95% he goes to RC Lens...but SAFC still trying.
If he goes to Lens he's just a ginger **** that will jump ship as soon as a better offer comes along, if he signs for us it shows how great he is and was always committed on coming here in the first place.
Either way I'll just change my opinion depending on the outcome

I've no doubt you're right but, for France, it does indicate their size.

I'm sure they could attract a more experienced manager ...

... the supporters will be asking for sparkling, not Still <laugh>
 
My worry is we are that desperate to get Still, what does it say about our plan B and C options??
Well I'd say that IF you believe strongly in Plan A and you believe there is still a chance (insert Jim Carrey gif here) then you go for Plan A until all hope is extinguished. That doesn't necessarily reflect badly on Plans B & C
