Next Manager Speculation/Hopes

[Axl Rose]

I'd have a dream team of Remi Garde, Eric Black and Trevor bloody Francis before Southgate.

Haha. Agreed. Southgate would be it for me. I'd just give up.

[Dante Lavelli]

They’re not good enough for where we want to be but the cumulative wage bill suggests they should be punching higher than they are.

The wage bill doesn’t necessarily equate to the quality of the player. If we’ve agreed to pay over the odds for average players then we’ve only got ourselves to blame

The wage bill is a far better tool to approximate the potential talent in the squad than net spend is because it takes actual performance for us and our ability to generate players oursewlves into account. It's not perfect but it generally gives a decent representation of the prospective squads in the league.

Ah man, those last two words and in that order.

[Beard82]

If that is the case - which it probably isn’t - we should surely jump at that chance

Even if we weren’t doing so badly it would be a no brainer

He’ll end up at newcastle won’t he

[Brazilian Villain]

Ah man, those last two words and in that order.

Yep, that rules out any chance of him coming to Villa then.

[RamboandBruno]

If only it was another source, Romano or better still Percy, i would allow myself to get excited..but…football insider, sigh.

[Drummond]

And the BBC even quoting it as a source. FFS

[RamboandBruno]

Poch er tino’s claret blue army, has a nice ring to it as well, football insider, double sigh

[olaftab]

Southgate could be available soon…

Southgate will end up at Small Heh after ruining England's finest for the next two years.
