Next manager?

Sky Bet have suspended betting on Dean Smith. Wonder if someone has lumped a large sum on him? Usually the reason.

Terry now 2/1

[auntiesledd]

Isn't it just smashing that all of a sudden, Harry fucking Redknapp is the intermediary.

I think you'll find the word you're looking for is triffick.

Regardless of what Terry has said can't get shut his wrinkly fuckin mouth

Wheeling the dodgy old dealer out to get his uninformed opinion is typical of Talkshite. Thank feck Dim White's not on this week - as the hyberbole and levels of ITK bullshittery would be unimaginable.

All we need now is the immortal line 'Sky Sports understands..........................'

It may be a case that they are negotiating with the relevant parties. I doubt they would have sacked Bruce without having an agreement of some sort in place with whoever they want.

You'd think that.

But the statement on potting Bruce said 'we now begin our new search for a manager' or summat like that.

It might only have been paying him a courtesy. 

But if they truly only did start looking last week and sounding out interested parties, it's not great.

Would be a little bit gutted if it's not Henry now. I liked the idea of him giving us a bit of swagger. Oh well. If Harry says it ain't so.

Maybe Deano's agent has gone large?

Blimey, every time I take a look at this thread it changes who we are (possibly) getting. 2nd guessing Sky Sports and Talkshite, great innit?

If it’s Terry, I’d much rather it’s Mellberg.

If though he couldn’t be the main man just asssitant as he hasn’t completed his badges ?

[ozzjim]

Would sooner it be Rodgers and Terry not just Terry. Or Faria and Terry.

I wanted Henry to bring a bit of Guardiola football to us

You mean dodgy old wheeler dealer!

Indeed.

Sadly, my attempt at a spot o' dexterous wordplay seems to have failed dismally. Again.

If the Henry gamble isn't going to happen,  I think building a sustainable, progressive football club around Dean Smith would be a prudent (and potentially just as exciting) way forward.  Being a Villa man, Smith would have all our backing, patience and support from day one, too.  If he added in Olof as his number two, that would be fantastic.  As for John Terry potentially being our new boss - a big no from me.

Problem is Olof decided to pull out from his Manager/Coach role after achieving great success in his first two seasons and now I understand has been "gardening" for about a year. Also I am sure the Club would have welcomed an application from him but as his name is not there  it's fair to assume he has not applied.
