If you believe today's headlines, he may not even be allowed to manage a club once the FA are done with him. Let alone be choosy on what division he manages in.Worthy4England wrote:Why would you think he'd want to come to a League 1 side with no money?
But yeah it's not gonna happen.

Re: For new signings, ask the man from the Pru
I think it's a good move, having some extra experience in that back-line will do some good.
Though that depends on how much we're having to pay for that experience.

Re: For new signings, ask the man from the Pru
Would you say this is true? Amos, Spearing, Pratley and Mark Davies are likely on £3m - £3.5m per year between them? Dervite, Moxey and Trotter were signed before our most severe financial troubles and so must be on competitive championship salaries? £500k per year maybe? So those 7 players prob co...

Re: What are you reading tonight?
Finished "Wizard's First Rule" last night. The first book from the Sword of Truth series. Reading my way through it again before I read the newer books. 17 Books in all. Would highly recommend the initial book for any fantasy readers, it's probably my favourite book I've read to be honest. However, ...

Re: The Politics Thread
Angles Eagles will announce her leadership bid on Monday. Gawd help us. As an aside, if you tell a journo your going to announce your leadership bid, haven't you, in fact, announced it? Replacing one unelectable leader with another. Well played Labour. I hope for their sake that they find someone e...

Re: Brexit or Britin
Of course, with everything being rosy in our own garden, such as lowest interest rates ever, lowest bond prices ever, a second round of quantitative easing on its way, the pound at a thirty year low, weakening substantially against the euro and a stock market that has lost 8% of its realtime value,...

Re: Brexit or Britin
Well that's the thing... It's no longer going to be voluntary by the sounds of it But doing something of that magnitude will require agreement from the other member states. Seven of which (those that this affects) most certainly wouldn't agree. And neither would Denmark, they won't be in a rush to ...

Re: Brexit or Britin
Not sure, but they're trying to make the remainder states without the € join the single currency. All the countries in the EU other than Denmark (and ourselves) are obligated to switch to the Euro. Just certain conditions must be met before they can make the switch, and at least one of those condit...

Re: Brexit or Britin
Why is Denmark a special case? Or is it just that you don't actually have to be in the euro you don't want? Denmark and the UK both negotiated the right to opt-out in one of the previous treaties. They can still make the switch if they want to but they aren't 'obligated' to like the other member st...

Re: Brexit or Britin
Someone saying "owd buggers" (of which I'm one) are "responsible", is rather different than getting your house egged, Union Flags pushed through your letter box or cards with "go home Polish vermin" written on them. I've seen nothing, diddly squat, zero, reported that's upset me. Unless there's som...

Re: Brexit or Britin
Maybe it's just selective reporting, but I can't recall reading about any remainers regretting their vote in the days following the vote. The same can't be said of a number of leavers. As for the young, they should probably direct their ire at their fellow youngsters rather than the olds given the ...

Re: Brexit or Britin
Its largely irrelevant whether you yourself are a racist, it is beyond shadow of doubt that you are on the side of an argument that has a mass of racism, bigotry and intolerance behind it. The racism point I cede on, but there also has been a complete plethora of bigotry and intolerance from the re...

Re: Brexit or Britin
Hardly an advocacy of the openness and direct accountability I was hoping for in our brave new non-cover-up world. TTIP negotiating positions all out there on a website for all to read - If the underlying economics are solid then everything will be ok. If (as happened in Northern Rock), they're a h...

Re: Brexit or Britin
I don't agree with that opinion, but regardless of why it went up, the doom and gloom brigade still downplayed it as a minor blip and against the norm. Whereas the decline was proof of what they had predicted. Is that not a little hypocritical? Ah no, you see you've got it COMPLETELY wrong there Rj...

Re: For new signings, ask the man from the Pru
They'd set the rules going forward similar to what exists now for players from outside the EU. Standards would have to be met and then no worries. It may have an impact on the lower level players but would that be a bad thing for local talent ? At present even clubs in the blooming Conference have ...

Re: For new signings, ask the man from the Pru
If we sign Europeans on say a three year contract, and article 50 is signed soon, how will that affect the right to work of these players? Would we be anle to claim either compensation or off our insurance to cover the cost of potentially losing them? I'd like to know who has actually said anybody ...
