    GO'N has pulled out of talks as he doesn't think it's "the right time", Edwards says his "full focus" is on Boro

    Erik ten Hag and Robbie Keane being mentioned

    Very odd decision of Edwards to take the Wolves job as they look poor, unless he has been promised big spending in January I can't see how he will keep them up. He would have had more chance of being a Premier League manager next season had he stayed at Boro in my view. At present none of the relegated teams from last season are in the top 6 of the Championship so there are places up for grabs this season.

    He played for Wolves, and I saw an interview where he said it was his dream job, so maybe it means more to him for that reason.

    He still lives in the West Midlands too.

    Apparently he was a Wolves supporter when he was a kid (born in Telford, half an hour's drive away)

    I admire him for wanting to manage his boyhood club, I just hope that the owners won't sack him if (if???) they get relegated

    Sullivan can smell an unemployed manager from 1,000 miles

    Sincerely hope not. Manure might well go for one of two former Hammers, Michael Carrick or Frank Lampard either of whom would be a good fit for us IMHO.

    Trouble is that we dodged it by stepping straight into the path of three others

    Looks like that.

    Though might’ve been better with a mid-table club than a team like Man U - a mid table club that doesn’t realise they are.

    Word going around is Darren Fletcher will be interim manager until the end of the season

    Looks like the board have written off this season…

    He was poor.

    I imagine poor old Martin O'Neil will get called back from the garden centre and asked and swap his slippers for his trainers once again.
  • alderzalderz
    Liam Rosenior as new Chelsea boss is a weird one. Feels a lot like Potter going there.

    He's come from Strasbourg, Chelsea feeder club so can see why but is a risk. Then again all new appointments are risks.

    They basically have an U23 squad and now they’ve hired a manager who feels like a good U23 coach

    I wouldn't mind that squad !!!
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    A six and a half year contract which probably means a 5 year pay off when it goes pear shaped.

    He’ll probably get ‘til halftime in his first game.

    Glasner has announced he's leaving Palace at the end of the season.
  • claretandblueskyclaretandbluesky
    I think he will have many approaches, I really rate him.

    Interestingly they have sold Guhei today to City and that was a massive call I wouldn't have wanted to make. They have got 20m they would have lost out on if keeping him until the end of the season but have also diminished their chances of lifting a European trophy.

    Were I him I would have sat out the contract as I am sure he has just gifted 20m to palace who refused sell him at the beginning of the season. He could have likely banked that 20m himself in the summer.
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    Apparently he wants a new challenge which would rule us out even if Nuno goes. There’s a challenge and there’s West Ham for whom challenge barely scratches the surface.
  • IronHerbIronHerb
    Why would we chase another out of work manager?

    @IronHerb, Because that is what we do & he is better than the current one. He hasn’t been backed properly at Palace so wouldn’t come to us anyway.
