We loaned Sheaf with obligation to buy. Good business. We loaned Vic then bought him. Awesome business. We loaned Binks then bought. Jury is out. Great footballer needs to up his defensive capabilities. We loaned Walsh, brilliant for us but injuries have destroyed his career trajectory. Could...

Second game of the season I have missed. Appears I have been lucky.

I said to my wife, Frank Lampard was born down the road from you (Romford). She replied he must be rough then.

Is he really a Tory? That changes the dynamic, we are screwed.

If Dowie can do it, anyone can.

Yes, lest buy a player who is injured to at least Christmas.

He's had one good game for was it 70 mins? Great potential but that is it. Why do people love a shit houser over a proven quality player. My gut says he will be good for us but could just as easily be pants.

Forgot Greg Downs.

I think in the UK there are way more unsuccessful managers who were top players than those who do well. For us, Butcher and Reid immediately come to mind. Strachan's record was mixed, Milne was OK and Stuart Pearce was pretty poor. The further back you go, the worse it was with Managers like...

Without Adi. Think the quality of the new coaches is also crucial.

He is not doing his job properly if he hasn't. Minimum requirement for any job these days.

I read that FL said Simms would never play for him again at Everton. Will be interesting how this plays out.

Yeah, I thought that too.

Whilst I would love to agree with you, history would indicate UK ex quality players usually are not great managers/head coaches. We will see. Need to wait and see.

Great player, average coaching record, but Claire said he was brilliant in his interview. Hope it does well in the future. Broke the Villa hoodoo.

But he was so brilliant in the interview.

You missed Peter Reid.

Vanity appointment...absolutely. Will this be costly? I think so. Will he be successful? Maybe. Will I support him...yes My gut feeling? Not great, depends on the new coaches. What happens to all the other coaches now? Shame Cooper only just lost his job. Bad timing I suspect.

Coaching.

I am worried refs are more concerned with dissent which means their decisions are challenged rather than potential career ending tackles. See Sheffield Wednesday. Ar Burnley, I thought the Bassette booking was in response to his rep rather than the offence.
