There ARE other teams(we'd have no-one to play otherwise) and here's where all-comers can discuss the wider world of football......

Would be interesting to see if this happened, whether Allardyce would try and put a toe in the water at Blackburn......

I wonder if Megson would be interested?

Maurinho just signed up for Inter Milan. He is reported as saying: "I really wanted the Bolton job but Gary Megson got in there first"....."cough" :twisted:

Ex-Citeh man lined-up for (massive) Eastland's vacancy

Former sky-blue, Gary Megson, master of promotion to the Premiership and well known 'friend to the stars' has been linked to the newly vacant post of manager at Manchester City, writes Bob O'Cloune.

Despite being linked with the likes of Phil Scolari (who, incidentally, isn't big and isn't clever), Avram Grant once he ends his role as Toad of Toad-Hall, Mark Hughes of Dingle Rovers and Ron Greenwood, it seems Thaksin Shinaguard, the former Thai Prime Minister (nasty to his citizens but even nastier to his dogs) will now turn to the ginger Mourinho to fill the gap left by Sven Going-Eriksson.

"I am impressed by his ability to just about keep a team in the Premiership" said Mr Shinaguard as he scraped pieces of sticky fragrant rice and fried Jack Russell from his hands. He continued " … and if we do get relegated next season he has fine record of getting promoted back". Further impressed by his record of falling out with high paid players he added " … and we have to somehow get the pile of shite, recruited by that bloody useless Swede, out of the place before we can bring more shite in …".

His failure to challenge for any of the cups was also an added advantage. "I need to keep out of England for at least 6m a year or I will be made to pay tax on my money … if I ever get it back" said the increasingly agitated Mr Shinaguard as he wiped a machete on the strap of his machine-gun. Clearly an extended run in the league cup, FA Cup or EUFA cup could prove very costly to him personally.

Set the early task of getting out talented players like Johnson, Dunne, Hart, Richards and Samaras (how did he get on that list ??) to leave, and quickly Megson has already begun planning selling them off before lining up replacements. "Funny thing is, it's dead easy to unload your best players" said Manchester-born Megson.

City defender Micah Richards told the BBC that the players were "100% behind" Eriksson. "That's OK by me, said Mr Shinaguard " I may only need one bullet if I get one of the right calibre".

It's believed the useless Swedish git Eriksson really wound-up his Human-Rights obsessed boss by occupying third spot in the Premiership in November. Thankfully Citeh's form faltered badly after Christmas. However their ninth-place finish achieved a Uefa Cup berth, albeit via the Fair Play League.

Thaksin, who bankrolled eight summer signings at a cost of more than £46m shortly after buying the club said his relationship with Eriksson soured in the second half of the season as Citeh began to play like a bunch of old-women in a paddy-field. "Fair-Play award ???!!!" he railed. "Fair-Play ?? … I didn't get where I am today by bloody fair-play"

I think it's a disgraceful decision, and am quite glad it's not my football club making it. I'd be fuming if I was a City fan. I hope Dunne leaves and is followed by the likes of Petrov, Richards and Johnson as they don't deserve them.

Now you mention it, I'm sure Roy Evans will be looking to get back in to management at some point?

Aye, won't see out the year IMHO. It's got Allardyce - Newcastle written all over it.
