I'd be happy - but i don't believe that he'll drop league after only just taking Leicester back. All this talk about a fall out of Milan is the press stirring IMO.

Why is Saga not playing? Is this something to do with ''insurance''? if so...why is greg also not sitting out? Maybe he has actually agreed to stay? No matter how **** he has been in pre-season, if he is on form and confident he could easily hit 30 goals in league 1 IMO.

Agreed, you can't judge this season on our friendly results. A couple of years ago, BWP got 6 goals in pre-season...but only managed 10 in the full league. And last year we romped to a 12 or 14-0 win over some side - didn't do us much good tbf. Sometimes I think limping through pre-season games like this is better than winning 14-0, as you can have a clear look at the areas which need improving - rather than it being masked over by a fluke result.

2-1 to Bournemouth. muck up by bart - sliced his kick straight to the on-rushing Bournemouth striker. nice one.

As an alternative to WGS, i cannot say I'd be disappointed with this! Proven in the lower leagues and has a track record of success. (his win ratio over the last 3/4 years years must be stunning)

Maybe they're tapping into his manager knowledge, as he spoke to a fair few people during the pinnacle debacle about becoming our manager. Then they'll offer him a DoF position? It's the sensible move really, when you've got someone as high profile as MLT available - use him.

i'd love him...and i reckon he's thinking about it over the next 48 hours. (not much to think about WGS - just do it!!)

oh im sure we will..my point was that for the last few years, we've not even been able to make certain loans because of the fee involved.

Good post apline. i agree. They're not stupid, esp. not AO, I'm sure he's already aware of what we think!

I like the budget statement. Sounds like we'll have some 'sensible' clout at last. Gone are the days where we can't make a loan singing because of the fee...

I reckon his name is being linked as a media divert - as they know what sort of hysteria WGS is causing. tbf AO is a clever guy and he'll know that adams is someone that will cause a rift straight way. It's not going to happen imo. my money is on strachan.

i still think there's something in it. When the club have just sacked their current manager, WGS surley wouldn't go to staplewood the same day to get a physio check. someone else mentioned on another thread, that when asked why he was at staplewood, it was so Mo Gimpel could check his knee. there is a big cover up going on here, he's going to be the new manager - i'm sure of it now.

but he's only just been appointed at Ipswich....this just won't happen.

There was someone on the Echo comments section yesterday, recommending Coleman, as he's unhappy in Spain - or something along those lines.

i reckon i could have a crack at getting a better win rate than that.

Fancy sharing? just to put our minds at rest at least...

tbf i'd rather have him than bloody Adams.

****ing hell, what a pillock he sounds. Please no...

There is definitely something going on re: Strachan. Let's put the points up... 1) - Solent confirmed that he has refused to comment on speculation linking him with our job 2) - saints have failed to deny that he was a staplewood yesterday. 3) - betting suspended as bookies making him a dead cert. Seems like he definitely is a contender, i just hope he fancies the challenge.

Bloody frustrating.... I really liked watching him at the start of last season, one of the reasons we looked so good.... He's unfortunately just one of those injury prone players, who'll end up retiring early.

i don't remember anyone mentioning micky adams tbh? although i may have missed it.

South today ''understand'' the shortlist has been narrowed down in the last 24 hours. Tony Adams, Micky Adams and Coppell were mentioned.

Oldknow IMO.
