don't think they were - not that bad

he lives here, get over it! He will go to local shops, go to local golf clubs - none of that has anything to do with what job he may or may not take!

charlton fans don't rate him then! interesting they say its come from solent

a management team that size would never work

sounds like no announcement this week Ajax will be Henderson's 3rd game in charge. Suppose could be announcement tomorrow or Sat saying starting next week.

don't think it was match day.

sends shiver down my spine imagining being 1-0 up at half time!

fingers crossed, will fall through and they beat Derby's lowest points record.

Cortesse heard about it one day. He was in UK next day with ML and took him to St Marys and Staplewood with Fry and by 5pm ML verbally offered the price. source - Cortesse's interview spread in Echo

I'm going, was lucky enough to find a ticket in the street.

doh, I was so confident as well

any update on numbers sold? rather than loads of emails going in could whoever had ticket office get an update?

OS site and Solent have got better. Echo is pretty good. The majority is first reported there but there have been several bits that have been on here first and echo a day later.

Peter Crouch - by 10.00 today.

people are guessing and hoping FACT -better?

the evidence being......

can you stop chatting on this thread - I keep seeing new posts and expect to see good news about the demise of the pompey few!

think people are going on who they want rather than who is likely. The bookies are following that. T Adams is the exception but guess thats come from his agent. Makes it interesting and agree no-one here has a clue. If they announce at Ajax game will be great if its popular choice like Coppell, Keegan or Strachen but if its someone most have not heard of could be anti-climax! If its someone currently employed then it is almost certain to be in the press before its agreed, as soon as we ask formal permission to talk. As they say they have the short list, and are speaking to people on it, I suspect they are people out of work or overseas.

Don't think fitness was our problem last year.

that's how I read Tony's post as well

I have. Not worth arguing over something he probably took about 5 secs to write and didn't expect to be analysed but still read it as 1) my heart would want big name 2) I know WGS is not possible following my enquiries he is not available due to personal reasons, so won't be on any list Olknow is doing 3) sensible option hungry lower league is what I would probably go for etc

talking about current short list

no he assured us that WGS would not be on Oldknow's list due to WGS's personal reasons. Bigger difference!

direct quotes about process, timings and saying short list complete and discussions are current, etc in echo printed article are followed by we understand WGS is not one of those. Bit of two and two, but my guess is they are not officially wanting to be quoted on who is on/off list for obvious reasons, but have told echo its not WGS. Vague I know but more substantial than he must be cos he hasn't said he isn't!

as manager?
