The Dodgy Rumours Thread

[Evil Monkey 52]

Yep, there''s so many of them about I thought that it would save time and space if everyone just posted their dodgy rumours under here instead of cluttering up the boards... Here''s a sample of the collection of rumours so far:

• Carl Moore helped finance the departure of Glenn Roeder (SWIW)

• Alternatively, Peter Cullum is on his way onto the board via new shares.  The deal for a manager has been done and will be announced this morning. (city til i die)

• However, it could be that the deal has reached a sticking point as the manager wants a long-term but our board are only offering short-term (wackojacko)

• Others suggest we want Nigel Worthington back on a interim dual basis with NI (Daily Mail, via Flipside)

• Ian Holloway is the man however, as he is having an interview today (wrightycool)

All of the above, with the exception of the Worthington tabloid-based rumour, have been reported as ''fact'' from those in the know, or the horse''s mouth, etc.Now, for your reading pleasure, goes the award for best wind-up so far:

• Aidy Boothroyd to be Announced Tomorrow (renegade tootsie) [:)]

So, can you do better? Post your rumours here....

And what a rumour it is! Hucks will be approached for just Saturday but will probably say no.

This is 100% true from a rubbish source, he can cook and Delia is a chef so must be true

Delia fancies a crack at managing the team to save a bit of cash, she will be in charge for the Barnsley game and pretend she isn''t and will stay top dog [:)] until the new manager comes in which could be the end of the season or never if she does well.

100% fact
