New Manager is Mark Hughes

[MCMC1875]

Here´s a tale for all you Hughes fans.

Attending a medical in his playing days, he was asked ´When did you break your ankle Mark?'. Reply 'I didn't know it had been broken'.

Softly spoken but 'ard as nails!

A workmate of Baz, has said he has had a text from rovers, to say that Mark Hughes has been appointed Manager.

It might be a wind-up, don't know.

[Bazzathegreat]

Just a suggestion but if rovers are to appoint Sparkey as manager and if he is to continue in the wales post aswell, then how about someone to help him out i.e Mike newall as his Number 2, or Bobby Robsen in an advisory role

[Mbm]

good idea, Bobby Robson as director of football!

[dave birch]

I'll nip round and tell them then.

Lee is set to "away" on Messenger so he didn't send it

[MCMC1875]

Anybody but Robson - judging by the howlers attributed to him in last Fri's LET, he's well past senile.

Just put £50 on Hughes on Betfair. Cos I'm one crazy guy.

[Duffer*Norway]

Hehe! =)

[dave birch]

Will have to wait and chew nails along with the rest of us......

[Hughesy]

Do you think that if Rovers approached Wales that they would keep it quiet if asked too or do you think they would just tell everyone that he is in talks with us?

So far they are denying any contact has been made

[Ewood Spark]

The only downer I have on a Hughes appointment is that if he is a success you can't help think that United would take an interest.

That's fine by me. At least we will get the success for a while.

That will always happen with a club like Rovers. One step at a time.

Maybe we're all getting a bit sidelined with this mark Hughes business. the LET did say that the people the board had wanted to apply, had. Then it went on to say that Strachan had applied.

Andy Gray has applied for the job "apparently". views on this please

What are his odds on SkyBet?!

I discussed this with a mate on Wednesday night, we both agreed he knows his stuff, but the only experience he's had is as a coach with Villa.

[Ossydave]

Is Sam Sneed related to Hughesy in any way?

Your faith has made my decesion on doing the same at coral

.. nice one

[1864roverite]

andy gray my ar££, someones making mischief, I have phoned my mate and he knows NOTHING about this rumour at SKY and he is there at the moment assisting in tonights productions of the soccer am show !

In respect of Wales, I think they would announce it from the Valleys and the hills in glorious base !

[bellamy11]

That settles it then!

Whilst I like Gray, he doesn't have the experience that I'd want in our next manager. His job at Sky is safe - he doesn't need to take a risk on failing as a manager now.
