Links to the club through him and his son, lives locally, string of failures, cheap… certainly shades of Coyle’s appointment 

i'd rather we got Ted Lasso than him ffs

I know you’ve got to take the betting odds with a pinch of salt but Simon Grayson is into 3/1 from 25/1 yesterday. Someone’s putting some money on him! What an absolutely awful appointment that would be. Can’t think of many worse.

I don’t want Hughton but I certainly don’t want Grayson f**k me.

Came out of nowhere via Portugal when "agents" were advising Chansiri. Delayed the launch of replica kits while he set up his own factory which got the contract etc.

 

remember when we had a Portuguese contingent come in under Kean - why did that happen again?

Following internal discussions between the club and Tony Mowbray, it has been jointly agreed that Tony will be leaving the club on the completion of his current contract.

He'll be hanging around until the end of June?

he'll be out the door by Xmas, should get a decent pay off though at least

If today's news is to be believed, Dyche won't be going to Watford at least. 

Kompany?

Better get him to spec savers - Dyche is currently in La Manga.

Is he?  Where do you get that from?

From the personal car registration, I'd be pretty sure it was a car owned by Dyche.

probably another wind up... but imagine the spirits lifted if true (and ST sales)

That might mean Waggott having to re-open the BBE upper tier to season tickets. There must be some way we can avoid that. Is there no way we can extend Mowbray's stay, instead?

we dont need to, he's still around until the 30th of next month

EG Group (Issa brothers), Blackburn based, must be pretty loaded, wonder if they've ever considered investing...

It’s a poor show that we’ve come to the last match of the season and not a peep out of the Chicken Chokers.

I expect they still want Mowbray in charge for the play off games they think we're taking part in next week. 

For Farke sake, fun while it lasted hey

Might be something and nothing but Nixon is hinting there's something in it by saying "I wonder" at the end.

If we're being pedantic "a long chat" isn't needed anyway. All that's needed is "We're not renewing your contract Tony, Thanks for your efforts' all the best for the future."

...and Damien will be in charge for the game on Saturday"

typo rectified folks, the more attractive (to some) Woodgate should be in the Meh category and such odds reflect that, also just noticed his brother in law is Stewart Downing, how cute.

Here's my thoughts based on the top 10 from sky bet's next perm manager, with odds, plus Woodgate...

Exciting

Farke 3.00

Acceptable

Ainsworth 3.50

Woodgate 34.00

Meh

Johnson 17.00

Keane 13.00

Cocu 7.00

Johnson 6.00

Edwards 13.00

Manning 13.00

No

Appleton 11.00

Wilcox 13.00

At least Woodgate's odds are very long currently...

Benni McCarthy has just publicly declared his interest on Twitter when replying to me. It'll be in his 'tweets and replies' section.

that would be hilarious, him in charge with Samba, Mokoena, Pedersen and Tugay part of the coaching team.
