I didn't say it wasn't true. It may well be, but its likely to be just using the Reading connection. I'm just saying anyone in the world can create a Wikipedia account and write what ever they want on there. Therefore Wikipedia has as much credibility as a rumour on this site unless it is backed up with a secondary source.

Anyone can add that on Wikipedia. Not reliable in any way.

An amazingly good acquisition in Div 3 more like

I don't mind if Pardew is using us as a way back to a Premiership club. In order to do that he will have to do very well with us before any Prem team would want him. Thus a win/win situation and we find someone else whilst being in a better position to attract good managers ...Or he could just get us back to the top flight and he'd be a Prem manager again

Stern John is obviously going to be a very good League One player and will score loads. Jason Euell is more than good enough for League One. Anyone that thinks otherwise clearly doesn't understand how poor this league is.

Has a press conference been announced yet? (Will we get 2pm on a Friday like we always dreamed?)

Gemany last won the World Cup(as West Germany) in 1990

At the point he took over Saints, Strachan's CV was pretty much bare in comparison to how Pardew's currently is if he is indeed the new manager.

Not a good thing. Puts pressure on Pardew if things go wrong. Dof's never work out in England and normally end up as manager.

Don't be stupid. Name a manger with a better track record than Pardew out of all of the current managers in League One? If we were in the Premiership, I'd be less inspired but for this level of 3rd tier football, appointing Alan Pardew is showing ambition. Of course I'd prefer Strachan but Pardew is a very good appointment imo.

I can't see this on the BBC website?

Just the same as they have been showing all day.

If we were still in the Premiership I'd agree. However we are in League One and most clubs would love a manager with Pardew's pedigree.

An interesting interview from a couple of months back

For a League One side Pardew would be a very good coup. Hopefully we can get better (WGS etc) but I'd be happy with Pardew - as any League One fan should be.

Would be a terrible idea. As soon as we hit a run of bad results people would be demanding Strachan take charge. Dof's normally end up taking over the manager job, especially if they are the bigger name.

A useful contribution to the thread. Grow up.

I've got a golden ticket! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9sl9TWO0PI&feature=PlayList&p=D1BA750736ACF88F&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=37 Seems to have been missed but the PR department is giving away free Saints 2nd kits with 100 programmes.

Hooked me in aswell.

Some strange choices of people in list A and B

It is Micky Adams at 66/1 Tony Adams is still 2nd favourite

Would be a good idea to announce that new manager will be unveiled on Saturday if this is the case to attract more people to the game.

Wicky is a 32 year old player. Ottmar Hitzfeld is the Swiss national team manager.

Why would Aberdeen players know what Saints are planning?

Why would Brighton or Colchester be a problem?
