    Looks like it was today. Looks almost identical.
    Coincidence?

    Anyone know much about the lad?

    Think your wrong on that one Jim. I have it on good authority that he's actually from France.

    <cheers>

    No mate, he apprently was born on his mam's breasts whilst on a camping holiday to Northern France as Wiki told me. He's actually welsh and used to be a lass but decided to retain her first name.

    "I hear you have worked wonders on a meagre budget at Guingamp. You'll fit right in here. Rumour has it you even got that little fairy split pea heart Marveaux performing. He'll be your main new signing. Look at this great stadium. Probably be empty on matchdays by the time we appoint you but these idiots soon flock back after a few decent results. It doesn't take much for them to believe. Them being staved of success will continue to be our greatest asset.

    Anyway how do you feel about meat pie sex games? The owner likes to **** his managers regular, and loves pies. Combining the two is a passion of his."

    Ryder is a fat bald **** who knows nothing. He just seems content in his lover Carver getting the job despite him being totally unqualified to be so.

    Guingamp - Currently 12th in Ligue 1. Sounds about right.

    I would take him in a heartbeat (As manager of the football club) his worked wonders with Guingamp and even won a cup with them. I believe they were 2 divs down from Ligue 1 when he took over too, so thats a double promotion, a cup win and now they look like a comfortable ligue 1 team in france and lets face it, the guy hasnt really had the type of budget we have, even if its 10-15m a season.

    There is that.My worry is that we will continue to sign a bunch of unknown French players to complement his appointment [if he is appointed.] The players we have signed have proven time and time again that they bottle it.

    Jocelyn Gourvennec (born 22 March 1972 in Brest) was a French football (soccer) player in midfield role. During his time at Marseille he played in the 1999 UEFA Cup Final.

    He was named EA Guingamp manager on May 2010.[1] On May 3rd 2014, he led Guingamp to success in the Coupe de France for only their second time by beating his old club Stade Rennais. He has just signed papers to take on the role as head coach, for Newcastle based side Sports Direct United, for the 2015/16 season.


    Alright which of you has been editing wiki? Mind, Sports Direct United sounds more like a mackem editor, but the typing/spelling is too good for those with 6 fingers.

    Know little about him, but rather than the 'safe-ish' Mclaren choice..I am tending to hope an appointment like Guingamp happens.. someone that will push us on, develop us and clean out the rotten structures within the club (or at least try too with respect to what can ACTUALLY be changed (rather than keep doing the same ol' thing in the same ol' way and expecting it to work ...which is kinda what I think Mclaren will be bringing to the the table)

    The guy in the photo with that spineless Penfold cnt looks fck all like Gourvennec. What, he suddenly had a grade two haircut all over and lost his tan on the flight? Was probably someone from Wonga, Charnley tends to only talk in £££'s rather than football.
