Yes, Potter and Thomas Frank not looking quite as good as a month or so ago.

I dont want Potter
He has done well on a limited budget in the premiership
If you want to take the next step we should not be looking at development opportunities , I have spent 50 years plus (excluding, Ron, SGT etc) with that shit
Look at the last ten years
I want someone with experience and a track record of success, There has to be another Tuchel etc out there , get the fucker in
Brighton have not won for 7 games, if that was us we would be asking to sack the manager

Hoping all of this Gerrard stuff is just a smoke and mirrors spectacle choreographed beforehand with Purslow so that we can do our real business undetected.

Why should the CEO liking or disliking a candidate have any bearing on the candidate's suitability for the job?  If you go into hospital for a heart transplant you want the best, most competent surgeon, not the one the nurses want to dance with at the Christmas party.

Went looking through a Rangers forum to see what they make of Gerrard coming here, as you do:





Nice meltdown.

Why would you do that to yourself?!

A "Rangers" forum would be like SHA wearing knuckledusters. And it's wearing them, not you.

Bless them. I'd say something about not having a European Cup despite a million bites at the cherry, but you know what? It's too sad.

To be fair, a lot of other posters have said this guy is talking bollocks but it isn't a lone view either.

Well, you did it to yourself, and you've actually provided a silver lining to this saga. If we take him we'll pissing them right off. That is a sizeable crumb of comfort. And they could then employ John Terry. A match made in Hades.

That is the only positive outcome and perhaps, on some subconscious level, I felt the need to make myself feel better about it if it pisses off Rangers fans.

The speculation on that forum is if prince stevie gets the Villa job and fucks it up, it'll scupper his chances of ever landing the Liverpool job.

OGS got Cardiff relegated and three years later he was managing Man U.
