Rumour: Howard Wilkinson (Director of Football)

[John Smith]

In adversity often comes positivity and this could well be the case for The Royals after football guru Howard Wilkinson was seen dining in Carluccio's with the Thais late yesterday afternoon.

A great footballing man who enjoyed great success at both Leeds and Sunderland to name but two, could his knowledge and connections lead us back to glory. We can only wait and see...

[AthleticoSpizz]

.....given the Thais track record, they're probably eyeing him up as c/back

[From Despair To Where?]

...and at 72, he's one for the future.

[bluerinse]

did he have a sun tan, as I saw him walking around in his shorts in Tenerefe last week.

Do a lot worse than get him in, who has worked under him previously ? ...

[Sutekh]

Yeah, yeah, next we'll be moving for Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Last English Manager to win the Premier League.

Didn't Wilkinson sell Eric Cantana for a million to Man Utd?

[Super Kevin Bremner!]

He did, but you couldn't really blame him too much at the time. Cantona was a mentalist, rotten apple and was on a poor contract. Who could have known how great he'd go on to be.

Probably one of my favourite all time PL players.
