juteface Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Agreed, as an employer he seems a bit turd. Look at this from a few years back http://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/communist-jibe-by-jjb-founder-incites-strike-421659.html I can just see him, frothing at the mouth and counting the cash.

Zatman Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Just woke up here in Oz and thought I'd catch up with who our next manager is... ...seems like its a two way fight between a Duck and a Duct...wtf. and bet either would achieve more than McLeish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juteface Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I reckon Duck would be a quacker appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieB Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Look what we started Julie... More of a comment on how bored we all are waiting for some definite news on the managerial front, rather than having to listen to the quite embarassing ramblings of a senile old man methinks!

greatbarrier Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Apparently little Roberto has gone all coy and is playing hard to get. Seeking assurances from the mighty Liverpool about the extent of control he might exercise. Who does he think he is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seat68 Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 so roberto, you battle relegation every single season and only really come up with the goods when your bollocks are on the line, and you really want complete control of a this shower of shit, yeah of course you can, and if you could get an assist out of downing we may even give you some money to buy a proper striker.

CrackpotForeigner Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Back on topic, it's quite clear to me that duck tape and duct tape are two different products. The former being a lightly-adhesive tape for waterproofing in situations where strength is not particularly required, and the latter being a strongly-adhesive reinforced tape for use on ducting. So, to summarise, people who refer to duck tape should not necessarily be sniggered at, as LONG as they are referring specifically to the not-so-sticky waterproofing tape, rather than the general-purpose reinforced tape used for ducting and fixing the cat to the wall, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanBalaban Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Dave Whelan really is a tit. He really is. It's because of him that I doubt the stories of Villa having approached Martinez as DW hasn't said anything yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briny_ear Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Whelan has always appeared to be a control freak and a bully. He is losing control of the situation and won 't have anyone to bully soon, so he is probably shooting his mouth off in an attempt still to appear in control. Would laugh if his ramblings help screw up little Robbie's big chance of the job with Liverpool, although he would probably be doing him a favour in the long term. That is one hell of a poisoned chalice (even more than the Villa job . 8) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis_B Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 The article says we have spoken to his agents. If they say he is not interested therewould be no point talking to that dickhead Whelan would there? We would only approach Whelan FC if there were positive noises from RM people surely?

It is basically the same thing that Martinez is doing. Anybody in their right mind would want to know what a job entails before taking it on!

Morpheus Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Is he out of contract? If so we don't have to speak to Whelan at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciggiesnbeer Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 I am going to laugh my ass off if he becomes Liverpool manager and we get FSW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Why do people keep saying he is out of contract? Dave Whelan on Martinez: "He only signed a new 3-yr contract 3 months ago - but I'd rather have Roberto than the compensation." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is one hell of a poisoned chalice (even more than the Villa job . 8) ) I couldn't agree more, without a shadow of a doubt, the dippers level of expectation is far too high as we all know, they genuinely still believe their a title challenging side, the kind of pressure that comes with that post reminds me of the England job, failure is inevitable.
