Why is the meeting taking so long
How long can it take to say "you're fired"

I would guess that the ghost of O'Neill looms large and they have to do every single thing right to prevent another tribunal in two years time.

Nowit's actually worth talking about for me I'd go for Villas-boas with a director of football supporting him (i'd love someone like Klinsmann in that role but I don't think we stand a chance with him now).

I'd then want us to commit to a 3 year plan with him to get the kids through and supplement them with good footballers as seniors rather than the pinball cloggers we have at the minute.  It might mean a couple of seasons where things are difficult but hopefully fans will accept that now so long as we look like we're trying t develop a style and mentality to make us competitive against everyone.

mcLeish can use a lot of time saying but but but but but but


he's probably got 7 defenders keeping the question out, easy though just bang it in from the corner

Did he have a cardboard box in his hands?

He's left the training ground, though it is lunchtime...

These tweets from Dan Pallet are strange, he seems to be the one at odds with everyone else's info.
