Someone who can turn the draws into wins.

Someone who could turn the water that passes for lager in the ground into genuine lager. ;)

With the exception of the puacity of centre backs, I'd relish working with that squad.

First show next manager odds always look typically random like that as the bookies are pretty much shooting in the dark at this point. Plus next manager betting is a very limited market with relatively little money invested in it. For example David Moyes is in the middle of that list at 20/1. I reckon if any of us on here stuck a grand on him right now our individual bet alone would shove him up amongst the favourites like Terry and Henry around the 5/1 mark.

Rui Faria must be a big shout?

I'd imagine he's a Mendes client. He's also a bit mad. He'd have probably run on the pitch last night and taken the penalty himself, such is his will to win.

Having a manager with a will to win would be nice. Better than our departed manager who just had a will not to lose.

Whats the deal with Henry, great player (and cheat) but what does he know about the championship?

And yes i get the irony of us just sacking the "4 times promoted championship specialist  ;)

How about Gary Monk - did well with Swansea and it would piss the bluenoses off too!

There have been times in recent years when paunchy centre backs have been a problem, never mind puacity.

Marcos Rose for me young and hungry and I suspect we could offer very good wages. However I suspect he would need to be given time and maybe more than just this season. My big reservation would be he's not a promotion specialist.

Chuffed to bits with the news today.

Just wait until we announce Alan Pardew.

(The announcement of TSM still haunts me).

The slow journey from rumour and disbelief to confirmation and even bigger disbelief that day that was played out live before our eyes on here is my number one H&V memory.
