Junxs Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Why are people mentioning premier league managers like Bentiez, Howe and Hughton? When has a manager ever quit a premier league job to drop down to the championship? its very deluded thinking, and quite frankly not going to happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats not the same at all as a manager being poached from the Premier league by a Championship side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 (edited) AVB ? He's been a complete failure as a manager in this country. No thanks. Edited September 3, 2018 by sheepyvillian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srsmithusa Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I’m not very active on Twitter. Has there still been silence from the players since Saturday? The only things I’ve seen from the club have been birthdays and on this day in history nostalgia. I did see Alex Bruce tweet with his dad in Belfast. Maybe we’re waiting till he’s back in town, face to face, to act? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Cook too tbh; never been at these heights before. He’s done a great job at Wigan but it’s only been, what, 2 seasons? I don’t like just going for flavour of the month. Cook has done well at nearly every club he managed. Got Portsmouth promoted as well in recent seasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
