But keep your posts coming I have found a few to be pretty funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So yeah, we can sit here and discuss who we really want, Guardiola will do ... or in your case Moyes or Capello. But realistically this is never gonna happen. We couldn't attract Moyes when we were better than Everton with more cash to spend so shy would he come along now? Im not even entertaining the Capello one - 5 mill a year? So realistically who is it gonna be? Martinez (whos already turned us down last year) Benitez (turned it down last year) Lambert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im sure he will go for a more popular choice this time. I hope. But why would people talk of Moyes? It's almost as retarded as talking about Capello.

Moorski Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 If West Brom get a better Manager in again this time then our Board should be ashamed of themselves.

You couldn't make it up.......... And what is a top 'proven' manager? If we discount the revolving door of Chelsea managers who nip over to London for a 6 to 12 month highly paid holiday, the 'proven' successful managers of the past 5 years are: Ferguson Redknapp Mancini Di Matteo McLeish Dalglish Of that list the only one we may get a sniff at, although extremely unlikely, is Di Matteo, who was fired by err.....West Brom!

Moorski Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Benetiz & Moyes are proven Managers plus there are many more out there, you know what I meant trees but of course experts like you know it all. My point with West Brom is we should have the better pulling power,it is down to the Board to to get the right man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point with West Brom is we should have the better pulling power,it is down to the Board to to get the right man Is there any need for petty insults? If demonstrating who has 'proven success' in English football is 'knowing it all', then I am as informed as a Google search Benitez could happen, although my personal view is that we have had enough egomaniacs at our club in recent years. Moyes will never happen, and in my opinion he has proven consistency, which i would welcome, but no success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetrees Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Benitez could happen If it could, would it not have happened last summer? 12 months down the line both parties have got plenty to reflect upon. No one is climbing over themselves to get Benitez, and the England vacancy is now filled. Mr Lerner has had his disaster, and may open up for some reasonable spending. The story at the time was that Benitez wanted £30m investment in transfer fees. It's likely that the club will need to do that regardless of who the manager is.

TrentVilla Posted May 6, 2012 Moderator Share Posted May 6, 2012 Raga still lives in Liverpool in the same house, he didn't even move for the Inter job so I doubt he would for us. Personally I can see that being an issue both to Randy and in his potential day to day management of the club. There are also rather large question marks about Rafa's track record as a manager since falling out with his former right hand man Paco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just that reading those post one could (wrongly) get the impression that you were one of those who still belive the UK is the center of the world and that if something didn't happen in England it didn't happen or isn't worth mentioning. People thinking like this (MON, our scouting, Lerner...) is one of the biggest reasons we're in the mess that we are. Again, sorry if i jumped to conclusions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubbadog Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Paulo Di Canio - had a fantastic year at Swindon, and most importantly, probably wouldn't cost us much - we all know RL will not want to pay megabucks compensation AGAIN!! I know an awful lot of Swindon fans (used to live near there) and they adore DiCanio, they realise he will almost certainly go to a premiership team this summer - I just hope its us.
