Big Bad Bob Posted 13 June, 2014 Share Posted 13 June, 2014 Lordy, not another one. There were some unimaginative parents kicking about in the 1970s, I'll tell you that. See also: Chris, Dave, Mark etc. Don't you mean the 60s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintRichmond Posted 13 June, 2014 Share Posted 13 June, 2014 I think Sir Les said "In the end, we whittled it down from managers who’ve won trophies, won leagues, won European competitions, had vast experience of playing in the Champions League and European cups and so on" Whittled it down " from " He doesn't say that what they ended up with were any that had " won trophies, won leagues, won European competitions, had vast experience of playing in the Champions League and European cups and so on " Going on what calibre or status of Manager many on here are banging on about, I still think "we" are in for a collective shock A lot of people think SFC is a "dream" ticket for someone. Well, the "dream" died when Markus's 5 year plan ended I don't think it is a very good dream now, and perhaps most of the Quality Managers think the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctoroncall Posted 13 June, 2014 Share Posted 13 June, 2014 I know what time the cricket, football and golf is on. But what times is the bashing one out meant to happen? So there is going to be synchronised bashing one out... well at least the same start time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the "dream" died when Markus's 5 year plan ended I don't think it is a very good dream now, and perhaps most of the Quality Managers think the same About right for the first part, what he says in his word jumble is that we've had few applications from people who at some time in their career have done well at football. Doesn't say how or when. He also talks of a list of potential managers who've been scouted in the past, do you thnk Mancini would have been on that list or Ranieri, doubt it, neither is young or up and coming really. So you then have to decide whether our manager elect will be from the scouted list or from the straightforward applicants, not so many clues as to that really. Basically it was just another wait and see gabfest. Didn't listen myself because I have a particular aversion to estuary accents.

angelman Posted 13 June, 2014 Share Posted 13 June, 2014 Admin/mods Can you put an ITK rating next to certain posters, as I am finding it hard who is talking complete and utter bull**** and who might know what's what. As that is the case, I treat everything as bull****, except Guan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint_ed Posted 13 June, 2014 Share Posted 13 June, 2014 Next boss is Ronald Koeman. Thanks KBS. All in all a good appointment, though yet to succeed at this level. I'm quietly confident though we're the right club for him to make his mark. I'm guessing an imminent announcement now one of our ITK's has been allowed this information.

Keep it up. Insults as usual And YOU can't see that "whittling it down from" does NOT necessarily mean that the ones that are left are the ones that have " won trophies etc etc " God, you'd be a walkover negotiating for a pay rise I bet ??? ( I'm assuming you are old enough to work ?? ) Let me know if you are pleased with the Top Manager Sir Les has got. Perhaps the hold up in paperwork is because the new man can't write ?
