Would imagine City's interest in Maresca would have cooled in the last month or so.

Don't think so with the way that Pep was talking about him after the Chelsea sacking-he was praising him to the roof as one of the best managers in the world.
Having been at City before I can see him returning there at some time.

Winston Biscuit keep hearing just how intelligent and what a deep thinker Liam Rosenior is. I honestly am wondering if the football media have decided this on the basis that he wears glasses :lol:


it's quite amusing considering he's basically will from the inbetweeners

Interim and then Poch in the summer, which will obviously end in tears, but it gets the fans back on side which the board sorely needs

Why?
Hasn't he had to put up with a horrendous injury list and a captain that doesn't act like a captain?

It probably is a case of wrong man for this club but there is something badly wrong there when managers successful elsewhere (especially Conte) can't get it right.

I hope Frank gets another job as what he did at Brentford was fantastic.

Who will be manager no.4 this season?

Will he go for Frank after Spurs got rid? No, it looks like it’s going to be Vitor Pereira.

Seems Forest have now reverted to type and it’ll only take a West Ham win or two to drop the trees into it.

Dyche leaves with the highest league win % of a Forest manager for a decade.

When Steve McLaren replaced Billy Davies in the summer of 2011, he was Forest's 30th manager in their history. 15 years later, the next appointment will be their 55th.

And Santo could get his Hammers to outstrip the trees. Wouldn’t that be unfortunate.

Not quite yet, he is just poised to commit to a 2 year extension.

Thought there were some club sides hoping to get him after the WC so guess it’ll come down to how those proposals stack up.

Any chance that the FA have put some kind of clause in there about it being subject to how we perform at the World Cup?
