I received a text from a mate (season ticket holder with a few Albion connections) on Monday night saying that he had heard if we didn't get a result on Tuesday night that Bloom had Wise and Poyet waiting in the wings. Apparantly he is pally with Wise and always wanted him but had no choice but to appoint Russell.

I replied saying I thought it was bollocks and to name his source but he couldn't elaborate.

I did think about posting something on here to that effect but thought I would get slaughtered for posting such an unsubstantiated rumour so left well alone.

But after last nights capitulation I have been thinking that if there is any truth in it then Slade just handed him the opportunity to make the changes on a plate!

Yeah, they are pally. Its all to do (surprise, surprise) with gambling. Bloom is a mate with Mike Ashley through a casino in London. Ashley is (obviously) a mate with Wise. Bloom wanted Wise before Salde. Out voted.
I wonder what the reaction to Wise would be?

Trouble is,Bloom is on a wave. The saviour. He could end up more hated than Archer

RS was a DK appointment after Gannon turned us down. TB wanted Wise and Poyet but the board supported DK's choices on a majority basis. Now that TB is at the helm , RS has only got a dozen games in which to mark his mark or otherwise it is curtains for him. This scenario is also a triple whammy as BB and DW will get the bullet as well.
 




At the time, the story about Wise being lined up for the job appeared in several media outlets simultaneously.

How does that happen? Did someone carefully plant the story? Or was it a series of odd coincidences, all happening at exactly the same time?

Are people bull shiting?

Definitely more likely.

Rumour has it that journalists from the nationals were keeping an eye out for a leak from a reliable source on NSC.

Well given that archer sold a ground and left us homeless, and bloom is spening £93Million of his own cash to build us a new home, then even the biggest idiot might struggle to hate him more than archer, but then, some people hate Knight and he saved the club so I suppose you are right. As they said on Monty Python.. "No pleasing some people".

Dunno why Wise is hated so much.The Geordies hated him so he must have been doing something right.
