I hope it's Ruud. I think he's the sort of character that gets players and fans onside. I think his calm personality is what we need as opposed to Cooper's persistent fretting. I'd imagine the players will respect him immensely. I just hope that we can build something with him. You just knew that Cooper wouldn't ever get more than 12 months here.

Horrific decision for the penalty for Bayer Leverkusen.

I'm pretty sure they sold Gakpo, Simons, Madueke and Sangare which might have wound him up. Not sure if he ever really got much to spend considering that quartet all went for good money (Simons aside).

Can't link it from where I am but a couple of years ago Gary Neville went to PSV to interview Ruud Van Nistelrooy. It'll be on Youtube and it's worth a watch if he's to become our manager. Came across really well on it.

We actually had any links outside of spurious betting patterns?

Long day when your mates tell you you should be a David Moyes impersonator.

Yeah he used to chat absolute tripe on here IIRC.

IIIRC a load on here were betting on Gokhan Inler because it'd be funny to watch the odds change and we actually did sign him.

If he comes here with a 33% win rate then he keeps us up. Point a game from this point gives us 36 points. Last club to be relegated with that many points was Newcastle in the year we won the league.

Sousa - 2 - Just a complete disaster of an appointment. Sven - 4 - I think he did well to bring in some good players but ultimately failed to deliver success given the budget. Pearson - 9 - Absolutely brilliant. Completely transformed the club. Ranieri - 10 - Got to be a 10 for winning the Premier League. Shakespeare - 6 - Did very well to steady the ship but ultimately was never going to be the man long term. I think it was a mistake to sign him up beyond the summer of 2017. Puel - 7 - Probably never really the right man as such but definitely the right time. Did a Pearson-like job in preparing the team for Rodgers. Rodgers - 8 - Should be higher but that last 12-15 months was horrific. Smith - 5 - Think he would have kept us up if he was given a few weeks extra but - like Shakespeare - was never going to be the man long term. Enzo - 8 - I think he's the best manager on this list and I wish we could have kept him for longer. Cooper - 3 - Just a complete disaster. Only goes higher than Sousa because he did it in the Premier League. Both managers tore apart good teams.

Took a minute to work out what it was supposed to be from our seats in the east stand but it looked fantastic once everyone was holding up what they were supposed to be holding up! Looked like it was kicking off about a 3rd of the way up on the surfer on the right hand side as you look at it? Some people really are bellends. Heaven forbid you can't see the players take their trackie tops off.

I think they'll go for Potter, he'll say no and then we'll end up with Van Nistelrooy.

Liam Manning has done precisely nothing in management.

Sky commentator is watching this with a rod on.

****ing hell if it's Robins I will be jumping into the Soar with bricks strapped to my feet.

Any early odds?

Someone with a personality and who understands modern football.

Pure incompetence not to sack him after the United game. Had a 2 week gap to replace him.

Sack yourselves next 👍

Love Vardy to bits and he was legitimately world class in his pomp but his peak was not better than the peaks of Kane or Rooney. Not in a million years.

Is that a joke lmao

Yeah it's their responsibility to employ the right people.
