    Van Gaal now at 3/1 odds dropping dramatically. Another name being thrown around is Gourcuff from Rennes. If true, maybe Everton have finally got the message Silva is not going anywhere.

    HB1 has stated it's come from Marco Silva himself.

    I wonder how we will find out if Silva is staying?

    Presumably only when EFC announce LvG/some French guy/Rooney as player/manager.

    Not Pozzo style to say anything. Strictly need to know basis.

    EFC would look hopeless & shabby if they say anything before new mgr confirmed.

    If their second choice takes as long to woo as Silva, this thread will assume Vydraesque proportions, potentially even Smithian proportions.

    If Van Gaal (or anybody else) does indeed end up taking the job at Everton, it'll be an interesting relationship that he has with the club - him knowing that he wasn't the club's first choice, and the club knowing that he knows this !

    There was a time when I knew who was joking, who was on a wind up and who was just incredibly stupid.

    That Twitter link seems to cover all 3 bases at once.

    That's not an official account, it just retweets all WFC articles and Sportsmole as the source?

    There's nothing equine related there at all.

    An unofficial social media site links to a two bob gossip site, who claim there's a rumour.

    Dyche would have jumped at the chance of the Everton job SOON after Koeman was sacked, but now he knows he would only be a "last resort" or 5th/6th choice after Allardyce, Silva and numerous other foreigners.

    He may still want the job but it is less likely with Burnley on such a good run SINCE the Koeman sacking. Maybe SD thinks - with a good January transfer window and AWAY games against Man City, Chelsea, Spurs and Liverpool already out of the way - there is an outside chance of a 7th-placed finish. As is stands, only one point stands between us and a Champions League placing.

    R4 5 o’clock news opened with the simple phrase “He’s gone”. I actually stopped what I was doing, face frozen in horror.
    Then I realised they were talking about Mugabe..

    That's the sort of patronising thing that pisses us off when people say it about Watford.

    Personally, I think Mugabe would be a better fit for the Scummers. Getting on a bit, a thug, delusional and prepared to spend 37 years in charge of an insignificant basket-case with weird entrances and minimalist glass.

    The more I look at it , I don't think our man's going anywhere. I would absolutely love it if Gino and Marco have played the toffees for a good'un and strung him along for the last fortnight booting the ball into the open goal that he's so obviously provided. What a laugh that would be.

    However, maybe I'll wake up tomorrow morning to different news. In which case, we'll need to mark the occasion in February.
