Was a coach for us at the end of last season and is credited more than Cotterill was for keeping us up. Left to manage Crawley and has now come back to manage us on a three year contract without managing a competitive game for them.


Interesting choice considering the new board wanted somebody "high profile"

'Iconic' was the word that they used, which apparently meant Hoddle or McCarthy. Wouldn't mind McCarthy as he has recent experience of getting promoted but Hoddle was a huge no for me. When Sven chucked his name in the hat a new manager could not have come quicker.

Damn been reading about the crazy offer West Ham have apparently offered Liverpool for Carroll. I do hope Carroll does well for whoever he plays (As its also good for England) but he'll be under huge pressure if he flops at another club after coming over for big money. Going to be fascinating to watch

Yeah dont get that at all, England are a team in transition, 3rd place seems ridiculous.

It is ridiculous but have you seen what they base the points on? It's a right farce.

i dunno - it's a very complex system. i don't really know how else they could do it? i think this might have come up before as a topic of conversation. it's more a case that uruguay have moved down, due to some points from awhile ago "expired", so based on their more recent results, we go up by proxy.

but the gap is pretty huge. if you look at the scores, i think we're on about 1200. Spain are on about 1600. so we're closer to 13th place (brazil), than we are to the top (spain).

Hey some of us have been there, hang on in with those tough years. Remember the likes of Reading playing low division crap in division 2 and 3 years back. Thats why its such a dream finally getting to the premiership (again). Think back to rainy evenings at Elm Park playing Huddersfield or Swindon etc in the 90's, urrrgh.

Hope Cov do well, i like the 'bigger' clubs like Leeds and Coventry to be high up, feels weird when theyre not in the premiership
