Post by: STFC4LIFE on Wednesday, June 4, 2008, 12:14:52
Just been appointed, wouldn't be suprised to see Blackburn go for Alladyce(sp) now.

Not sure where all this interest in Mark Hughes has come from, what with Man City and (paper talk) of Chelsea.

He has done a good but not spectacular job at Blackburn IMHO.

Oh well, who cares really.

I think he did a pretty good job at Blackburn, 7th place last season was probably higher than anybody expected them to finish.

Looks like my money on Mancini going to Chelski is safe. Hughes has gone to Man City and Ancellotti is staying put at Meeeeeelan  8)

Fat sam would be the right choice for them. Blackburn have no right to be as good as they are currently given their fiances and fanbase and Allerdyce has the track record of over achieving with a similar club.

Chelski will shock everyone and get someone no one expects

Hughes has proved himself first with Wales and then with Blackburn and was probably right to be picked up by another club, I suspect give it another year or 2 and Martin O Neil will be linked with top jobs again.

It is a shame that premiership teams are unwilling to take some of the lower league managers that have cut their teeth in the championship, there are a few there that are good, and may do well when stepping up.

I suspect though that Ince along with Shearer will be linked with Blackburn but they will probably got for someone like Alardyce or Strachan

Blackburn will get Grant.

Okay, maybe not.

I like Mark Hughes but going to the Thai Blues could be the death warrant on a promising career where he would have been better served with the stability of Rovers than the Won Ton cauldron.

If they end up signing ’The Show’ for silly amounts of money it’ll be interesting to see how Hughes handles him and where he slots into the side what with Hughes’ workmanlike sides.

I give him 12 months  :D

I wonder if the average Citah fan will be that impressed with having a "red" legend at the helm!!

That's all we need here, Brian Tinnion to replace MM and we'd be well set!

They had a few on the news last night and they were fairly untroubled with Hughes’ Red past and I suppose having had to cope with Peter Schmeichel arrival in recent seasons old Hughes isn’t much to get over in the great scheme of things.

Fair play, the way I know some City fans react to anything Manchester United I'd have thought a few would have kicked up a bit of a stink.

Having said that I have met some City fans who are very down to earth and didn't seem to have that much of a hatred for their manc brothers.

I'd say he'll be there atleast a week in to the season, as long as they don't lose their first match.

A three year deal - around about the same duration as Ferguson's "retirement" date. Hmmm.

A Thai court thingy today ruled that Thaksin's assets should continue to be frozen.

I know that the guy is mega rich anyway, but this means that he has around 1 Billion squid less to spend than he thought he would have.

This may well adjust his spending budget a tad.

I think Ince will go to Rovers, after reading something today.

I think MK will let him talk to Rovers and the gay judas cunt will walk. Again. However they refused Leicester permission to speak to him, fair do's on that as they are in the same league.

Also i think Allardyce has been interviewed and Shearer has ruled himself out of the running.
