[Archived] Next Rovers Manager

[Head Rover Heels]

How about Chuck Norris?

If he had a disagreement with Mokoena the fallout would be unimaginable

[Will]

Big Sam to be confirmed later today. You heard it first.

If not then please feel free to give me some stick!

[roversmum]

Thanks, Will. That's my day ruined then....

[Mc Love]

Isnt he a bit old to be confirmed??? Maybe he was born again?

[Will]

Thanks, Will. That's my day ruined then....

And mine. I'm hoping it isnt true, but unfourtunalty it has come from a footballing source.

Very disappointed.

[percy]

I had a couple of quid on just about everyone BUT Big Phil for the Chelsea job.

I've got a couple of quid on several Rovers candidates, except Big Sam.

Sorry

[broadsword]

He can't be appointed today, the others on the shortlist haven't been interviewed yet.

You don't have a shortlist then go with the first person you talk to, that is crazy.

My thought also, but then who's to say they only had a short list of 2.

Chuck nevers sleeps, he waits.

The BBC have it on their gossip section that BFS is at ewood for an interview today. Very different from being confirmed.

Apparently they were prepared to do so with Shearer yesteryesterday (that spelling is intended). The point is once you've decided what you want first, discuss the options and if everyone's happy why wait. Obviously by everyone I meant the board and JW and the potential manager, not the fans. I don't think it is about the first person they ask, it's about the person they want first.

anyone else feeling this was always the inevitable outcome that has just been delayed a week so as not to appear a rash appointment! Let down, depressed, dissappointed, uninspired, ambition-killing, plain wrong, say it ain't so, cheerio santa, god awful, hello abdoulaye faye, ...............so,so, bad.

Really hope we have'nt given him good money as him and the likes of McClown are millionaires many times over as the result of being terrible at their jobs and are so desparate to get back in at the top they should be paying us.....don't want to be reading how its cost us £5m to sack him in 6 months!!

rank, dour, appalled, sack the board, sick joke, come back woy, ............how bad as a team are we going to be without bents and santa...PLEASE F___ OFF U FAT BUNG LOVING TOSSER

[Sparky Marky]

How to decrease your average gate by thousands....Hire Big Sam.,..!!! And lets face it, we ain't got thatmany fans anyway....

I thought they were inviting Shearer in for an interview, not handing him the job on a silver platter.

A Hughesey like prediction.....

Very disappointed.

Who was your footballing source? Some kids playing haeders and volleys on the corner of your street?

[RoyRover]

Hughes leaves and Big Sam comes in, hardly a fair return.

[Will]

Who was your footballing source? Some kids playing haeders and volleys on the corner of your street?

Not really in a position to say.

But those who know me know i have feet in the footballing world.
