Had no idea he lives in this area. favourite is current manager as he really wants the job. Thanks Rogers would be a coup given our current predicament. If he's interested why would Tonda be the favourite among the board? Baffling
Miltonaggro Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago 1 hour ago, Willo of Whiteley said: BREAKING: I’ve had it on good authority that a figure has been seen leaving alongside Johannes Spors and Rasmus Ankersen from a London restaurant on Thursday. Sources say he was wearing a bow tie and had yellow dots all over his clothes. They interviewed Mr Tumble but he wanted too much money and refused to play with three centre backs. Also a bit of a nasty cunt! 3
Midfield_General Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago 1 hour ago, CB Fry said: Worked with Spors and Tonda at Gerona, that's all. Sacked too recently for it to be a viable option. It is not going to happen but nice distraction. I think Spors actually hired him for Genoa to be fair. So he must rate him and have a relationship with him. I agree that it’s probably a bit soon and a bit too far-fetched, but maybe not entirely out of the question and he’s probably about as good an option as we could realistically hope for. I think he’d be a great hire, personally. 1
goodymatt Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago So the final four are assumed to be: Eckhert O’Neil Carrick Rodgers Why on earth would you go with Eckhert from that list? 6 2
goodymatt Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago Rodgers is a different calibre to the others on that list, if he’s interested then he should be the clear favourite for me. 19
washsaint Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago Rodgers is a t**T and he ended up faling at Leicester and Celtic as his ego got in the way. Wouldn't want him within a mile of the club. O'Neill - no thanks. Skate through and through. Look at what happened with Redknapp. Carrick - not averse Eckhert - I think he has something about him and just have a feeling he could be an inspired choice. Similar to Rohl in a way and no-one would have been too disappointed with him. Put it this way, if Eckhert wins today from 2 games he'll be the joint 2nd best manager we've had in the SR era. How mental is that? 2
LGTL Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago Wow. If Rodgers is in the mix then he simple has to get the job. It’s a complete no brainer. 11

We need a big personality / strong character as manager and he ticks the box. Dear Mssrs Spors & Solak, Ignore my plea for Viera earlier... Rodgers is your man. Yours etc...

How mental is that? Genuine question - what exactly do you see in him to make you think that? Have you seen the line-up he has chosen for today's game at home to the bottom team in the league? We need someone who will definitely be a big improvement on Still, not yet another pet SR project who shows promise and might make go on to be a good manager at some point. We might have won at QPR but we played just as badly as we have at any point this season, and I see nothing to suggest today's game is going to be any different. 4

Saint Gifford Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago I’d have given Still more time, he will seriously walk into a top job. Koeman type no thank you, inherited a team not for me. Frank absolutely, won’t happen, other Frank absolutely not. Internally no, from lower leagues no. Hate to say it but Southgate to steady the ship instil discipline, Ralph 💯 %, Farq’s yes. Jose pipe dream. Should have gone for Warnock 5 or 6 managers ago, not now obviously. I’d even take the nutter Barton with his connections, but that ship has sailed now he is doing his “”Podcast””??? Roy Keane yes, Rooney no But to be honest as a lot have said, who will come now apart from those looking for a payday. 3

SW11_Saint Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago Gary O’Neil is a shoe-in for the Boro job surely. Less grief there as an ex-player too. 1

How mental is that? I know what you mean about Eckert but I still feel it is too early in his career for this job. He also needs to ‘find his feet’ by himself, and not be steamrollered into a style or selections to suit Rasmus. For the above reason I can’t see Brendan Rodgers being brought in as he wouldn’t conform to suit skinny jeans fucking hipsters and their spreadsheet game. Say what you want about Rodgers - and he comes across as a smug twat - but he probably does know his way round the football world. 2

Dr Who? Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago My Reading supporting friends could not stand Rogers. I think it is the only club he has been crap at. Then he went to Swansea and did a great job.
sfc4prem Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago From reading posts I get a feeling that many posts are, perhaps without realising it, genuinely advising Sport Republic to hire the manager they are suggesting. We've lost trust in the bunch of fucking jokers to such an extent that we're desperately hoping they read our fucking posts and it gives them ideas that they hadn't considered 😂 1

DT Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago I really hope the twat Rasmus isn't pointing his little fingers at Brentford again, saying, look, it CAN work to employ the guy that's been there already. Really think he is the prime, root cause of all of our bad decisions over the last years. Eckhert would be a bad move. The players are too billy big bollocks (we should sell all of the troublemakers in January) to 'allow' anyone but their friend Russell or somebody who can command respect immediately (Rodgers would do that, O'Neill less so) rather than the stand-in teacher. 1
SaintsfanSwindon Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago If Rodgers wants the job it is an absolute no brainer. Get it done Dragan 🤞

Dr Who? Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago I love the fact that all that is posted on here is pretty much speculation, well 99%. We have no idea what is going on, and I would say at this stage no one who is betting do as well, apart from snippets that are put out there by media sources. Fun though! More fun than our game thread will be.
Saint NL Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago Rodgers is the best manager in that list, by my god is he an insufferable twat. 3 1
trousers Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago (edited) Surely Rodgers has got to be lowest risk option for Sport Republic? Even if he fails they can always turn around and say to us fans: "well, you wanted a high profile manager rather than one of our usual project / experimental managers and look where it's got us...". If they go for another of their 'clever' options then it's high risk and all on them (yet again)... Edited 2 hours ago by trousers
