    I meant in Watford’s terms. It was a joke. By being thin-skinned, humourless and rude, you’ve made yourself look a bit silly. Shame, as I normally rather like you.

    That's a bit unnecessary for what was just a funny comment on the short-termism of our owners, isn't it?

    I disagree.

    We're bottom on 8 points...to many, we're doomed, so anyone coming in will either keep us up and have their reputation enhanced of have their reputation untarnished because we're already doomed.

    I thought it was quite funny actually. Shame you can’t take it as well as you give it out.

    And this from someone who once threw his toys out of the pram when I used the word 'pillock' in an exchange with him. He's been on ignore ever since.

    Talk about double standards.

    It'll probably be Mullins.

    We're already down, and he's the cheapest choice.

    It was someone taking a cheap shot by trying to look superior because I forgot a hyphen. My response was of equal humour as well as saying f*ck off to the Spelling Police.

    I think you were saying it's only until the end of the season, rather than long-term. So LB replied by saying for Watford the end of the season IS long-term. They were mocking Watford, not you.

    That’s where you’re wrong, and a trifle paranoid. The fact I use a hyphen in that and you don’t is completely beside the point, which was, as K9H says, to underline the short-term nature of all our appointments.

    If that is what he meant, then I send my sincere apologies. I’m so used to ****s on this forum, that I forget there maybe one or two decent fans who actually post on here.

    You'll get all that and double your current earnings, provided you guarantee to gee up the team with pre-match episodes of On The Buses instead of that terrible music which has been having such a detrimental effect on their performances

    Wouldn’t it be lovely if Mullins played the u23’s on Wednesday and they gave Leicester a proper game

    I would not be surprised to see one or two of the u23's in the squad though VR :D

    You're on my ignore list, so I didn't see your intended insult. How do you like those apples eh?

    I still expect it to be a European based manager although the Mail are claiming our players want an English boss ..

    Well they seem good at getting what they want ..

    It's a fake....but a very good one. He's caught a lot of fishes with that.

    We may laugh about the Hughes gag but he's Evens now. Down from 25/1 this morning. Usually a sign that someone's heard something.

    Could be a first.

    Maybe, but Hughton was heavy odds on yesterday, and nothing happened. Let's hope this is the same. Anyone with a surname starting with Hugh need not apply.

    You'll never get one.

    Indeed Hughes and Houghton the favourites. God help us

    Why can't OddsChecker just place Ancelotti or Benitez as odds-on favourite? We know it won't happen, but at least it will give a couple of days of pleasure before the reality sets in once the new man is named.

    To have Hughton, Hughes & Clement as the favourites, robs us of even the illusion the next coach will be good.

    The snippet of hope I’m clinging on to is that there is no real reason why Hughes, Clement, Hughton, Moyes, Allardyce, O’Neill, Pardew, Pulis etc etc couldn’t have been announced by now if it was one of them. The club have said Mullins will be in charge Wednesday - that’s doesn’t really tally with hiring one of the above names.

    Jesus, I was convincing myself we had a hope, then I looked at our December fixtures and realised we need to pull out some corkers.

    A home win against Manchester United entirely possible and would be much, much welcomed.

    I've just come all over Lauren Cooper. Probably preferable to inside her.

    Why would Pozzo change their ways now? It'll be a yes man from Europe that we've never heard of. He'll be gone in the Summer.

    You're probably correct, however, we are in uncharted territory. The Pozzo's have never had a season quite this bad. They are looking to get someone for this season only. That sounds to me like it could be a high profile manager, who will have a big impact and kick start our season, but we cannot really afford to keep for very long because of his salary. I'm hoping for that anyway.

    If we were going to go for another European punt, I doubt it would be a short term appointment. They have to get someone who will have an instant impact. Even though I've long thought we're done for this season, I doubt the owner has given up just yet, nor should he have. But it's going to take something a bit special to get us out of this mess now. Someone the players will instantly respect and respond to.
