RIP Sir Bobby
He put in a transfer request because he wants to play at a higher level. Peterborough aren't exactly cash strapped so he must be holding out for silly wages which we won't paying at this moment in time. Can't see it happening.
Hopefully Pards is planning on signing a new back 4 (1 of which signed today) because Perry and Lancashire would struggle as a pairing in the conference.
Would be a good appointment. Pards has done well in 2 jobs out of 3 (same as Strachan), knows the football league having won promotion with West Ham and Charlton.
May come across as a bit arrogant on TV but I've met him a couple of times and is a good bloke.
Living up here I unfortunately know alot of West Ham fans and they all love Pardew, speak very highly of him. Obviously, Charlton fans wouldn't agree but he did well at Reading so could be a decent appointment.
If we start the season against Millwall with players like Pulis and Lancashire in our team, it will be another long season.
Need to get in some strength right down the spine of the team ASAP.
