broadsword Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Who's this source then, John Williams? There's no glory in claiming to know the facts in advance, only the potential to look like a plonk if things turn out differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deftangel Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 (edited) Moyes has been on Sky sports News stating that he's happy at Everton. He was also going on about signing Djorkaeff Best steer well clear then! LINK Edited September 10, 2004 by deftangel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rover6 Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 (edited) JW made it plain that Rovers would not go and approach a manager but wait for people to contact them, before drawing up a short-list. And Mark Hughes has made it plain that he will not be approaching Rovers when he said, 'I don't expect them to call.' wtte And as both are supposedly men of their word, I wonder if the Hughes rumours are just that - rumours. And perhaps a smokescreen for another target. On a different note. Can we end this debate about whether or not Houllier is a good manager? It shouldn't evenbe a debate because the facts clearly prove that he is an imbecile, incapable of managing a top club. Here is the proof: A) France national team - England weren't the only ones to miss World Cup 1994 because France's very own Turnip, Gerard Houllier, then national manager, managed to screw up big time. He blamed the failure to qualify on David Ginola's poor back pass, although he should be reminded that qualification is achieved over more than one game. B.) Liverpool - look beyond the plastic treble. Think about players under Houllier's tutelage. Owen and Heskey classic examples. Both were promising players at Liverpool - but both were raw and needed developing and improving my a decent coach. Look at them now. Owen is a shadow of the player he once was (sadly a great talent has turned into a player who just looks for balls over the top) and Heskey has been impersonating a donkey for much of his recent career. C) Houllier's transfer record has been shocking. Cheyrou, Titi Camara, Eric Meijer - need I go on. Edited September 10, 2004 by rover6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 probably best to keep quiet for a while Hughesy, you really are making it easy for people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan75 Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Mark Hughes and Iain Dowie are 2 of 3. Expect the 3rd to be either Houlier or Advocaat. I believe this is what Hughesy is refering to. I have highlighted a number of points. LET And they have now drawn up a short-list of targets which is believed to contain just three names. The club are refusing to be drawn on the identity of the men in the frame. But Wales boss Mark Hughes and the Crystal Palace manager Iain Dowie are both thought to be in the shake-up. Williams refused to be drawn today on the identity of the targets on the club's hit-list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

broadsword Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 "Don't you read", honestly Hughesy, such a tart remark, take a chill pill or maybe smoke a bong.

LDRover Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 It's a misconception that I actually know a great deal about the club. I hung my chin out and you caught me squarely on it!! Knew I could rely on you Bob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roversmum Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 (edited) 'I don't expect them to call.' Did he say whether he had called us ? In which case he wouldn't be expecting 'them' to call,would he? And he might well have called just to see without actually applying at the time. Now I've got myself confused I shall be glad when this is all sorted out - and no doubt Jim will. It must be very hard on him not knowing what to moan about.

Guest Kamy100 Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 A guy who works for the BBC and posts on another forum that i visit (www.40percent.tv): Posted by Seamus: Blackburn have approached the welsh FA for premission to begin talks with Mark Hughes to take over as their manager. I also understand that if this is turned down then Houllier and Strachan are 2nd and 3rd choice. He is usually a very reliable source of information.
