Next Manager - Ivic Confirmed

Maybe they are looking to recreate 'Bruce Almighty' with Gino in the Morgan Freeman role of God.

 

Andre Almighty?

 

Worryingly he's now 6/1 and is the only name with the odds shortening against. Bad times indeed.

 

Cristiano Lucarelli still at 5/1. The definite choice of @Clive_ofthe_Kremlin.

Beginning to think @NathWFC is right.

Seems like we have missed out on target 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and are now scraping the barrel.

 

Surprised Tony Pulis not in reckoning...unemployed at present....gets teams promoted...prob too straight talking for Pozz like Pearson was...

 

I see you’re fairly new around here.

Starting with posts suggesting Tony Pulis is not the best of beginnings.

(Should also add that in 27 years of management, he’s achieved promotion twice - and only once to the PL...The man’s a myth.)

 

Wrong Ventura

 

Be calm. We are all here for you.

 

It's not like Watford fans to believe in myths is it?

 

Ventura is the only one whose odds are shortening today because he’s the only new name being discussed.

 

Yep. All it takes is a rogue tweet these days to make people throw money at the bookies.

 

Welcome to Watford Gus Poyet!

(sits and waits...)

 

Wouldn't be a bad shout imo

 

Agreed. Not bad. Dreadful. But maybe less dreadful than some of the alternatives being backed.

 

Sits? Is that a typo?

 

'I don't know what you're expecting but we've been relegated. You'd do well to lower your expectations somewhat'.

 

It’s a hint.

 

You're right of course. We need to take our punishment, be it Poyet, Ventura or Hughton, and come up smiling just grateful that we still have a team to support. Thanks for your correction. I'm working from home and sweating like a basted pig. This weather is ****ing ridiculous and I'm in a **** mood. There's not even any cricket. I wish CV19 had taken me in April.

 

Any info if the meeting in Austria has or is happening today?

 

Zilch. As I said last week, sadly the source of where I got that info from internally has gone on holiday for two weeks as of the weekend - so I’m as in the dark as anyone!

 

Knows where the opposition dressing room is, knows the league, played with Joka and Zola. Fills the South American quota left by Gomes and soon Pererya. Wins all around

 

Poyet is a capable manager. The only difference between him and Ilic or Struber is that the last two haven’t ballsed up yet or in our line of vision.

Unlike those two, Poyet has played with and managed very good players, for example at Chelsea or as assistant at Tottinghams.

 

Didn't Poyet leave Brighton after taking some kind of dressing-room-turd-based revenge on Ian Holloway after Palace knocked them out the play-offs a few years back? If true, he's got my vote

 

He's a complete hot-headed nutter. Would love to see a "disagreement" between him and Troy. Would last a max of 3 games under the Pozzo regime.

 

Yes, a total nutjob.

 

I'm surprised Pulis hasn't been mentioned. Knows the division and knows how to get teams promoted.

 

Well played.

 

Given what is often said about him, here and elsewhere, I don't think I'd blame him.

 

Just been talking to my Burnley supporting friend and he dropped the bombshell that Dyche (PBUH) has been getting under the skin of quite a few senior members of the club...

 

What, condoms? Really?
Sponsorship?

 

Not going well, is it...?

 

To what happened to the Palace Dressing room?

 

This Sean Dyche?

 

I'm in Greece right now on the coast Halkidiki after a few days in Thessaloniki. The bad news is that I didn't see Gino and Ivic meeting up in Thessaloniki (where big Vlad lives), so I think that ship has sailed. Sorry to break the news.
