[Albion] Who do you want to become our new manager?

[HangletonGull]

The more I look into it, Michael Carrick for me would be a perfect fit

Signed new contract with boro

 

[Justice]

Utter bollocks

Well we hope if is. Not all of us obviously some like driving in reverse.

 

[NorthStanding]

Why do you “genuinely think” that? Like the rest of us, you know sweet FA about what names are on the Bloom list. There’s no disgrace in simply saying you don’t have any information but it seems like it’s too much for some people to admit. I have no information whatever about who was or is or will be of interest to Albion’s top management.

I don’t have any information, but I think that Mark Robins should at least be under consideration, given that we’ve been linked with other championship managers.

f*** me. Once again it’s like being dumped by a page 3 model only to go chasing a librarian.

Ben Roberts and Kyle Macaulay are both still employed by Chelsea. So, if he came back he could only bring three of the five that left with him. Would be need to bring in some extras?

Ben Roberts is now Chelsea's "Head of global goalkeeping" I see.

Sounds cushty!

Vincent Kompanys dad confirms that we did want him to replace Roberto.

Manager's father claims Tottenham, Chelsea and Brighton have been keen - Big claims as information revealed - Sport Witness

New Bayern Munich manager Vincent Kompany has received approaches from Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Brighton & Hove Albion. That’s according to his father, Pierre Kompany, who told La Dernière Heure, relayed by Het Laatste Nieuws, that he wasn’t surprised Bayern took Vincent away from Burnley...

He says 'Brighton showed interest'. It's hardly saying we really wanted him or held talks. I imagine he was one of many names, rather than the one we definitely wanted to replace Roberto.

Yup.
And there's somewhere between no to very very little chance he turned down Spurs and Chelsea last year to manage Burnley.

 

[brighton_tom]

Yup.
And there's somewhere between no to very very little chance he turned down Spurs and Chelsea last year to manage Burnley.

Also some odd comments in there. Apparently ''At Bayern, they did not focus blindly on that (Burnley's) relegation.'' But also ''They judge you on your performance''. Is the relegation not part of Vincent's performance then? Sounds like a dad just trying to convince the world why his son is ideal for Bayern, and loosely slipping in a vague 'Oh but all these other teams wanted my fantastic son as well!!'

 

[oldboyroy]

Blimey, Alan Pardew looking to return to the Premier league! Surely we're not that desperate?

 

[Van Cleef]

Looks like Tony's supa-computer has blown a valve. That's another week of wild speculation then ffs...

 

[ady1973]

So do you think it’s gone perfectly so far ??

Not perfect but then being fans we all want it all done and dusted as quickly as possible.
But no-one really knows how's the plan is going....well there are 2 who know for sure. The rest of us just live in hope that is ends well

 

[southstandandy]

I see another name recently mentioned of Carrick, has now signed a new long term contract at Boro.

It's definitely going to be a Curve Ball appointment methinks.

 

[Mike Small]

PB said we were ready to 'execute that plan' (new manager). I hope the new person is worth the wait.

We all know what happens to best laid plans!!!

I think its pretty obvious by now, we the supporters ain't got a clue what's going on and can only surmise that Plan A got scuppered. The lack of any news coming out of club is slightly odd but I'm clinging to the hope the club are going to surprise us. Utd are also going silent on ETK so it's not just us who are wondering what's going on. It could be long drawn out summer boys and girls!

Have to point out that if:
'I think its pretty obvious by now, we the supporters ain't got a clue what's going on'

then we can't:
'can only surmise'

as if we have no clue, then there is no evidence with which to base any surmission upon. Surmission requires a little evidence.

And yes, I am bored of it all.

But annoyingly we continue to do so!

I find librarians quite sexy tbh
