[Archived] Nicko's Thread

[LDRover]

Based on the info from Nicko it's got to be Geraint Williams then.

[LeftWinger]

My guess is Geraint Williams then. I'd say he's probably the least well known from that list.

[RevidgeBlue]

It's a total shock name. A bit of an unknown, but from a decent source...a bit like the guy Burnley named.

Well off the top of my head I can't think who "G. Williams" is so....................

[bob fleming]

Surely not the Overlord of all Evil? Saunders!? Ex-Player and all that.

[LeftWinger]

Stan James - Next Derby Boss

No Mr G.Williams currently in the betting.

[eddiewac]

He's not on skybet either, maybe ladbrokes know something the others don't...

[modes98]

Short odds as well on Mr Williams. Worth 8/1 nicko?

Edit: Drifted to 10/1 already

Edit: Now 12/1

[Exiled_Rover]

I hope it's Deano.

[modes98]

I think someones invested alot of Ince. He went from 14/1 to evens!

Saunders with Souness as his assistant lol!

[RevidgeBlue]

Saunders with Souness as his assistant lol!

At least they will save on the electricity bill!

[LDRover]

14/1on laddies now. Sod it, I'm on.

[modes98]

Ladbrokes have pulled the Derby market already, by the looks of it. Blue Sq have got up and running but were a bit behind with the odds.

Only really interesting name on there list is David Kelly at 10/1

[Billy Castell]

Who is David Kelly again?

One day Souness will be back in football........................

Oddscheacker.com take on Derby manager

Maybe Derby could tempt Lippi into Pride Park...................

[modes98]

Who is David Kelly again?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Kelly_(footballer)

Derby's current assistant

Looks like it's Ince. Blue Sq as well odds have fallen to 4/6, the same level at which Ladbrokes ceased betting.

Edit: 1/2

[T4E]

Throw us a bone here Nicko!!!

This is the man who will eventually make a better gardener than a coach/assist manager

[nicko]

Throw us a bone here Nicko!!!

I'm trying to nail the story myself. Sounds like there could be a couple in contention.

There are some interesting rumours around about two of the candidates. I am hoping to get to the bottom of it asap.

There is also the question of whether Paul Ince - who is favourite just now - is actually qualified in terms of coaching badges.

It's a live old story this one.

[eddiewac]

Williams is 33/1 on skybet now...

[LDRover]

Throw us a bone here Nicko!!!

Cracking sig T4E.

Just spotted this on a derby fansite

Jewel or Ince are the men being approached, they wanted Mark Hughes but he is staying put.

Just noticed they have a Football Consultant and it's Craig Brown. Might not be a bad move if he wanted back into management.

[nicko]

The strength of their information is somewhat undermined by that Mark Hughes drivel.

Craig Brown one of EIGHT members of staff gone, Derby don't hang about.

[modes98]

Blimey. That sounds expensive.

I spose that all interest any club had in Hughes would have ended when he signed a new deal as that's a powerful indication he wants to stay. Therams.co.uk fansite seem pretty set on Jewell or Ince but that maybe because they are being fed rubbish info.

McClaren's odds are rising across the board.

Eddiewac: Good call on that 33/1, got a sly few £ on it. Hopefully it isn't Ince as his odds won't drop much i imagine.

Up to TEN now, they must have found two more hiding under the desk

[T4E]

I'm very surprised that McLaren isn't being more strongly linked.....

[modes98]

I'm not to sure that the chairmen would be loved by the fans for appointing a manager who has proven to be as bad as he was for england.

Interestingly Ince has gone to 5/4 and Jewell has become odds on with blue square.
