Rumours on Twitter that we are sounding out st ettienes Oscar Garcia.  Never heard of him but he's not called Bruce, Pardew, Moyles or big Sam...get my vote

I am off to Cornwall tomorrow for a week and I reckon it is fifty-fifty on whether Bruce will still be in charge when I get back.

Yes, somewhat. I actually like the sound of him but from Rudy's summary there I'm not sure he'd come.

Check out the video of him with his hands in his pockets at the training ground as he gets one of his players to practice his crossing. Genius!

Apparently Silhillian and former Small Heath player Graham Potter is working miracles with Ostersund.

Very much so. Taken them from the Swedish fourth division to the first in the space of six seasons. Won the Swedish Cup last year and then knocked Galatasaray out in the qualifying round this summer

A very impressive body of work.

His team looks impressive in the vids. The high pressing game would need much more energy than we seem to have now but he's definitely the kind of progressive coach we should be looking at instead of stick in the mud old school English managers. He could be our Wagner. (not the composer)

Ciggies your post about sorcery should have come after the mention of Potter.

If definitely like a manager who plays front foot pressing high tempo football

But I really don't know how that would suit our centre backs and defensive midfielders. Terry was shit under AVB and that's. When he wasn't one year from retirement.

Can't see it - only just signed a contract with St Etienne in June so why switch. How did he set Brighton and Watford up out of interest?
