[Hookeysmith]

If I was getting this much stick I would run to my mummy

[auntiesledd]

At least he's not in DeNile about it.

All Tom's fault.

No doubt he'll be complaining that he was Delta bad hand.

[conman]

[Dave Javu]

Out of work again - poor Giza

Walked like an Egyptian apparently

Aswan should do under the circumstances.

[edgysatsuma89]

I really hate the punathons, but bravo on those last two.

And you can't say Pharaoh than that.

No surprise then that Zamalek are looking for A New Boss.

Nice work.

If Pearson is the bloke they want, I'd do it straight after the Arsenal game.

If he's the bloke they want, why aren't they doing it now?

No idea, could be for any number of reasons. Maybe he wants to wait until the end of the season. It doesn't really matter that much, we're down anyway. Starting afresh is better me thinks.

If it is him it then it should have been signed some time ago.  If the delay is on our part it smacks of dithering and valuable time wasted.  If on his, then I hope we have a plan B as his stock has just risen and he may well get better offers. (justified or not).

Unless of course the supposed takeover is actually happening.  As it has been with most of Lerner's tenure, we are completely in the dark as to what is happening at the club.

[Dave Cooper please]

If the Club does not know where it's at regarding the future owner, why would a manager sign on. Any reasonable manager will want to know what conditions he will be working under.

Pearson it is then, there's no way he can be seen as "reasonable" which ever way you define it.

lerner , may well give Fat Gab a go, well his already on the payroll, and surely its only a matter of time??

Prince William to increase workload by taking Aston Villa job

William Duke of Cambridge has responded to criticism that he is workshy by taking over as manager of newly relegated Aston Villa.

The Duke is understood to have been recommended to the Villa board by the Prime Minister, who has supported the club ever since being told to by an adviser.
“The Duke of Cambridge called me to say that he was catching a bit of stick about not pulling his weight,” said Mr Cameron.

“He asked if I knew of any high-profile roles he could perform to help him appear busy. I told him there was a job going at Aston Villa. The Duke said that leading Villa sounded lovely, so I called Randy Lerner and hey presto! he starts in the summer.”

However, many Villa fans are shocked by the appointment.

“I didn’t see that coming,” says season ticket holder Barry Spurtle. ‘We thought it would be Nigel Pearson or David Moyes. The second in line to the throne was well down the list, behind Sean Dyche.

“We thought it would be Nigel Pearson or David Moyes. The second in line to the throne was well down the list, just behind Sean Dyche.

“As far as I’m aware Prince William has no experience engineering promotion from an increasingly competitive Championship.

“He’s used to the finer things in life-like gala dinners and cruises on the Royal Yacht. How’s he going to cope on a pissing wet Tuesday night in Rotherham yelling at Alan Hutton to hoof it the fuck up the park?”

William was quick to defend his appointment and answer questions over how he would handle the Gabby Agbonlahor situation.

“I will handle it like a professional,” insisted the Duke.

“Just as soon as I find out what a Gabby Agbonlahor is.”

Was a nice setup. Wish the author had spent more time on it. Could have been funny.

Dyche has refused to commit to Burnley apparently when asked about it.

[kippaxvilla2]

He'd be a feckin Egypt to consider us though.

Dyche has refused to commit to Burnley apparently when asked about it.

Maybe he just like winning promotions?

Maybe he just like winning promotions?

“It’s for another time, it’s not for now,” he said, when quizzed on the speculation about the future.

He just wants to talk about Burnley and not respond to stupid questions about his future.
