Jurgen Klinsmann. He's in the country at the moment (he was also doing punditry for Portugal/Czech Republic), so expect The Star to put two and two together and make vier. (Before anyone asks, he posted it on his Facebook page today...)
The latest gossip is that we will announce the new manager next Friday. So we're not expecting France to make the final then?
Funnily enough I recognosed him!, it was the twat with the brolly up in the background....McClaren still skulking around?
Whoops! Well, it did chuck it down for about five minutes at lunchtime yesterday, so either somebody got their brolly up just in time...or walks around under an umbrella every time rain is forecast, and won't take it down until they're indoors.
That reaction from Blanc on tv just then after Spains penalty doesn't say much. Awful motivator, just standing there motionless and expressionless is not what you want from the manager. Disappointing reaction when things aren't going right. After going a goal behind, he took far too long to change it to push for a goal, and why he chose Malouda to start raises more questions.
On a points accrued per game basis (ppg) HR was our best ever manager in history (which is a little disingenuous since it wasn't always 3 pts for a win etc) so to get some one who can match 1.74 ppg will be tough. Pleat, interestingly enough is 3rd overall.
Slight issue with the Poll here. It may have been 11+ days away when we voted, but time being what it is, it wont always be 11+ days away (will it?)
True. But all Spurs fans are clever enough to look at the date of the first post and work that out. Other fans will get confused. So, its actually a fan filtering system
It's not actually a poll is it! It's a prediction and all who predict from now on will be correct. So it's not even a prediction now is it. In fact this is a prediction league without points that is not about predictions. In other words it's pointless. Hindsight! its great but also pointless. In fact!
I can confidently predict that the new Spurs manager will be announced between now and the 26th July 2012. My prediction is therefore entirely correct within the parameter of one month. I AM In The Know
