Old Boy 0 Posted October 8, 2007 I''d take the Vogon (Ian Dowie), glassy eyes and all, if he bails out of Cov. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Barry Brockes 157 Posted October 8, 2007 I find it astonishing that the same old names keep coming up for these jobs despite the track record of most of them being filled with the words ''failed at'' on their managerial CVs although in a perverse kind of way I suppose I find it reassuring that our board isn''t the only one who seems totally taken in by the wrong candidate at interview. What on earth, for example, made Sheffield United go for that perennial managerial failure Robson especially when the Blades fans vehemently protested against him when he appeared to be the likely appointment. Still, the board knows best (sound familiar)? How do these people talk themselves into these jobs? Mind you, that leads on to another worrying point. Considering that most chairpersons and directors of fotball clubs are successful business people it makes you wonder about the state of their various businesses.

Carlos Valderrama 0 Posted October 8, 2007 My money is on either Vialli or Costacurta. I think a cheeky fiver on Costacurta could be a decent bet.It could even be both of them as a joint management team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
