Badger

More importantly let's see if the Board change their plans ...

I don't think Rice escapes criticism among the fans, even at the Emirates I heard a number of Saints fans jeering him and calling him an Irish bastard. This is obviously a reaction to the stories of his social media posts that came to light from him at a younger age.

He probably won’t want to play a season for us in the Championship, but if the main purpose is to sell him at a profit then fine

Are they really talking about RM in the same breath as those two ?

Be ready for us in the Championship next season. Let’s just hope he/Sheff Weds don’t ‘do a Burnley’ and go up whilst we go the other way.

Tuchel is keeping the seat warm for him. FA couldn’t agree compensation for RM

Ridiculous. What justification is there for that time on a Sunday ? Don’t think they’ve ever held a match at that time in a Sunday before

Yes, Potter May now have to modify his expectations and ambitions. Possibly good news for Leicester or Everton, or even West Ham. Still don’t think he’d be interested in us.

Looking forward to the next time we have a ‘happy hour (and a half)’ .

Same was said before Ipswich, then Bournemouth. He had a pardon v Arsenal, and will v Man City. But every chance it’ll be said again v Everton, then Wolves.

Both sets of fans think we’re playing for the Potter Trophy. Both sets of fans to be disappointed.

Has to be a role for David Icke in there as well somewhere. Actually, it’d be interesting to see what a Rasmus/Uri Geller brainstorming combination might come up with. Beyond Wilcox I always suspected Rasmus consulted with someone else re the appointment of Martin. Possibly Greta Thunberg.

So, another roll of the dice. Perhaps one too many. Lose to Leicester and we’ll regret giving him this match and another three points squandered. But beat Leicester and that’ll be enough to keep him in post until probably the Everton or Wolves game when the same conversation will rumble on.

less experienced than RM. That would be right up Rasmus's street.

Some ‘names’ there. The better ones probably wouldn’t be interested, and others have me diving for cover and preferring to stick with RM (Schumacher for instance). But one name that stood out was Igor Tudor. Not because he’s good or I know anything about him, but just familiar. Weren’t we linked with him before ? Can’t remember when, and if it was with Semmens or SR.

Or the target was tied up with other commitments until after the international break (media or such like).

If anyone can plummet that depth, then Rasmus can.

Christ, how old is Cockerill now ? Same haircut ?

I think he saiod he wanted to manage Norwich one day. Perhaps its a 'spiritual home'.

Agree with you, but the Stewart signing was made when we had a DoF in place.

Just googled him. No beard. No chance. But on the subject of Ole's , the BBC Gossip Colum featured this: Are we a 'major club' in comparison ?

He was linked previously, reports saying Rasmus liked him but he hadn't long been at Middlesbrough and wouldn't consider a move. Looking at him he seems ideally suited to Rasmus: Young manager✔️ Beard✔️ Fashionable name from playing days✔️ Achieved nothing of note in his managerial career ✔️ Looks a trendy fucker on the touchline ✔️ bound to crop up if we are looking for a manager again as he seems to fit on the Rasmus Spectrum.

Or David Platt. Bound to manage England one day.

You’re overlooking a few things: he doesn’t have to live in Middlesbrough, he’s a Geordie, and his family are up there. Think it might be harder to prise him away from there than people might think.

Okay you're joking about failing, but it does seem he manages to fall out with the hierarchy at clubs after a year or so. Add Mainz and Dortmund to the list where he's left under a cloud.
