Next Manager Speculation/Hopes

[ozzjim]

Portuguese press saying no contact with Rubes and he's not interested. Beale has ruled himself out.

[cdbearsfan]

Piss off Portuguese press.

Does seem like it was an unlikely option with him being in the Chumps League and everything, but how can he have said no if there's been no offer?

[Toronto Villa]

If we know anything about Villa we rarely do our business very publicly. So almost everything is pure speculation.

I’m sure they’ll be a few more villa fans watching Spurs v Sporting in mid week, If they lose are they out?

[Billy Walker]

I love the way all these people who haven't been offered the job are ruling themselves out.  I may as well officially rule myself out, while I'm here.

[Richard E]

You could have posted this five minutes ago, before I wasted a tenner backing you on Skybet.

[Brazilian Villain]

I'm 12 years older than this Ruben chap. I have nothing else to add.

Give him 12 months in the Villa job and he'll probably look 12 years older than you.

Fuck sake.  Billy Walker ruling himself out really does signify the end of days.

TBF he was never going to come this close to the world cup

[KevinGage]

Think I'd prefer Honest Arry Redknapp over Dyche.

Make his dog Rosie CEO. She seems to be the brains of the operation.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Portuguese press saying no contact with Rubes and he's not interested.

That's bullshit. Well at least the part of him not being not interested. He was asked yesterday and deflected the question, what with an important game tonight and Spurs away on Wednesday in the CL. He may not be interested but hasn't said anything positive or negative about the interest other than saying "I don't talk about other clubs".

[cdbearsfan]

Thanks RCF.

No but it would probably go down to goal difference assuming Spurs went on to beat Marseille and Sporting beat Eintracht at home.

When you think how important a manager can be to a football club
-including increasing value of players through development, obtaining greater prize money, etc- is £30m excessive to secure the right one? I’m not saying Amorim is, (although he would be my number one choice) but I wouldn’t see it as prohibitive.
