The Moose (Ian Abrahams) on Talksport who has good contacts inside Upton Park reckons Avram Grant will be unveiled next week.

 

I just cannot believe that Pardew has any chance of being the West Ham Manager

Tell you what, we'll do something complicated like move it to General Sports, and merge it with the half million other Zola Scaked threads. How about that..?

 

I might even leave a link here. But it is quite simple. If a sports/football topic is NOT DIRECTLY SAINTS RELATED it goes in General Sports. What could be simpler..?

Er, why?

 

Didn't Gold or Sullivan say that he was on their shortlist to replace Zola if WHU went down? They didn't go down, but Zola is gone, what makes you think he has no chance?

Has some management experience now, both seasons he has been successful (imo)

 

Great job last season and a good job this year (under circumstances)

 

A young, hungry well connected manager. What more do you need in L1?

 

And a Swiss-Italian chairman may find it easier to work with an Italian manager.

I seriously doubt West Ham will be desperate to land League 1's 7th best manager.

 

Please note, on points won, he is League One's 5th best manager. He didn't have a -10.

 

Just a completely random point here, but why did he leave West Ham in the first place ? Wouldn't that prevent him going back ?

 

And Zola has proved nothing, and wouldn't necessarily be a good idea for Saints. Though Poyet is similarly foreign, London Prem-team based and age/career moves in England, and is doing well for Brighton...

I do love these books. Some names seem just to be compulsory to be added to any 'next manager' odds.

 

Trevor Brooking at 50/1 is the value bet. It's gonna happen one day at West Ham. It would sell a lot of season tickets.

 

Grant A 4/9

Hughes M 6/1

Bilic S 6/1

McLeish A 7/1

Curbishley A 12/1

Jol M 12/1

Hoddle G 16/1

Pardew A 16/1 ******

Pearson N 16/1

Jones D 20/1

Manzano G 25/1

Di Canio P 25/1

Venables T 33/1

Lambert P 33/1

Coppell S 33/1

O'Leary D 40/1

Burley G 40/1

Reid P 40/1

Souness G 50/1

Brooking T 50/1 ***********

Jewell P 50/1

Southgate G 50/1

Eriksson S 50/1

Houllier G 66/1

Shearer A 66/1

Gullitt R 66/1

Ince P 66/1

I reckon it'll be any of the ones in bold ;)

Seriously, why even suggest Paul f*cking Jewell?

Steve Coppell has just got the Bristol City job. SkyBet are mongs.
