Not sure how warm a reception the ex-Wednesday man will get Mixed reviews from United fans. Some saying if he scores goals and gets United up then they couldn’t care what he did in the past and others saying what he done to the United fan plus what he said about Billy Sharp and the club and to then sign him are a disgrace to the club. This signing would of defintly not been done if Billy Sharp wasn’t happy with it that’s for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bishop Briggs Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Stoke City have sacked Gary Rowett after only 8 months. David Moyes is the clear favourite for the job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrTroopMajor Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 David Moyes is an absolute fraud and shouldn't be allowed near a football club. It's very easy to label Sunderland a basket case of a club and gloss over his tenure there, but he was catastrophic from day one when he declared they were in a relegation battle after the first game of the season. Avoid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

senorsoupe Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 The mehrry-go round of managers have been rumoured to be linked to the Stoke job, in addition to Moyes I have also seen Sam Allardyce's name linked as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thekorean Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Should FA ban manager poaching during the season? It must be absolutely gutting for Luton fans, they were looking like they were gonna get promoted. I suppose they still could, but Brentford fell apart when Dean Smith left. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brentford's collapse started before Smith left, he hadn't won in his last 6 games. The poor run, added with the death of a very popular Technical Director probably made it a difficult task for Frank coming in. I'm unsure if Smith would have changed anything as he very much lacked a plan B. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd just watched a narrow 2-1 defeat at Man City in a game that was only decided by an unfortunate last minute own goal. He also had players like Defoe, Pickford etc and money to spend to strengthen. Not goosed at all imo until he started spunking cash on absolute wasters like Djilibodji and N'Dong 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, considering the situation that they pulled the club out of, to where they are now, with planning application for the new stadium and other developments to be decided later this month... Losing a manager to Bet365's money is a blip...(incidentally Luton have turned down sponsorship from betting companies). Good luck to NJ when he finally takes over at Barca. Mick Harford in interim charge starting with Saturday's trip to his home town Sunderland. Apparently west Brom have been approached about Graeme Jones...would save costs on a new sign for the manager's desk... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moyes was just in the unfortunate position of being there when it finally happened. Coleman and grayson proved last year that even with a decent manager that team weren’t good enough. Moyes wasn’t good enough for united i will give you that, but proved he is capable at west ham. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bishop Briggs Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 4 hours ago, lichtie23 said: Karanka out at Forest He has asked to be released from his contract according to the club statement The BBC website says "It seems there's been some falling-out and disagreements behind the scenes, and this has been speculated on in public since Boxing Day, when it was our understanding he was on the brink of going at that point. He's held on for another 10 days or so before it has come to a head over the past couple of days. Exactly what the disagreements are about is unclear but it's been fairly obvious for a month or so before Christmas that Karanka wasn't entirely happy with life at the City Ground." Sounds like a bust-up over the transfer window. Martin O'Neill is available. Jokanovic might be a decent shout. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
