Snowflake Royal We're still a day or so shy of how long Martin Kuhl was interim manager and that was only about three years ago.
Back in the day when tapping up was way less common I'm sure you could have a couple of months go by in some cases. It just feels ages because we're in the middle of it and news is 24/7 these days

I really hope I am proved wrong but my prediction is that he gets us relegated and that we sack him at the end of the season and appoint someone like Ainsworth who has League 1 experience. Mad appointment IMO.
Spot on. His "record", such as it is, is pathetic in the extreme. Couple of screen grabs from his Wiki page :
I predict he will buy half a dozen useless nobodies from the Iranian spiv's "stable" of "clients" in teh January window, we will be stuck rooted in the bottom 3, he will be gone by Easter with his contract paid in full of course, and we will start next season in League 1 in administration with a 10 point penalty.
Merry bloody Christmas Chinese owners, Merry bloody Christmas.

Agreed here.....but I’m very cynical about why it is happening and fearful of the deeper mess we are going to be plunged in to.....Got League One written all over it.

strapOld Man Andrews Somebody (none of the local press will) needs to get to the bottom of why we are seemingly obessesed with getting a Portuguese manager in at all costs. What is the connection? There is obviously something in it for someone.
It's the Iranian spiv's doing. Watch Gomes now buy half a dozen of the Iranian spiv's clients in the upcoming transfer window. All will be utter dross nobodies and will come at huge cost and salaries.

+1 Obviously once in post and at games he gets the same backing anyone would. But I'm not impressed and expect to be saying 'I told you so' in April/May.

Woodcote Royal Whoever we sign will be a high stakes gamble given our league position but trashing Gomes in favour of the current managers of Bolton and Wycombe Wanderers amounts to little more than fear of the unknown.
Throwing a Pardew into the hat would be a game changer..............................

I think we’re all in agreement on this one for once.

Zip If he does come then obviously I wish him well. His track record does not such longevity at Reading FC. Baffled why we have gone all out to get him.

Completely agree
his record at Rio Ave is not on there aswell
W5 D4 L4 in the league they have failed to win the last 5 aswell.
Honestly I would Rather have Stam back. and that says a lot. we have got so many great managers homegrown and we insist in chasing these flashy foreign managers.
They have proven there stones as players in these leagues and also some as managers. I would take Ainsworth, Parky, Cowley, Chris Powell, Brian Clough the names are countless. I would even take Chris Coleman.
But we go for a sodding Portuguese guy that has absolutely no idea about English football and cant even speak the language. I am glad I did not renew my ST this year. TBH I have only been to 2 games this year and until things get better and the club I loved for 20+ years starts to reappear I will not be renewing. They seriously need to find there identity again and if that means going down and starting again I would take that right now.
I would love to be proved wrong but I don't think I will.
