Bournmouth said to be looking at McKenna, hope so and it fucks up all those entitled tractor cunts.

Portsmouth fucked them up big style

Yes they must have been especially wound up, they'll probably be seeking a couple of our offerings for next season's intake either loan's or fee!

Serious note though, he would leave for one of the following reasons:

Not being backed by King to stabilise ourselves as a Prem club
The England job
A job in or around the London area to be closer to his family

Lovely transition on those two posts, fair play.

FL will not be short of offers come summer, lots of them will be tempters and if it suits the family then i think that overrides the footballing reasons. We would all understand if the decision was to move closer to home and im sure vast majority would be forever grateful for the football we have seen under him. For me if he stays great, if he goes im fine with it, just thankful it happened.

He is take it a step at a time person - not chasing money - cannot see him going for a while

 

[CCFC_Irish]

He seems to have a good working relationship with Doug and a settled team around him. He has said he is happy, why rock the boat when everything is going well.

He has legendary status at Chelsea and will have it at Coventry and further cement it by consolidating premiership status. I think the aim is to get Coventry there and bed them in. It's at that point he might seek a new challenge.

Good point to be fair! I’m pretty sure he lives a reasonably commutable distance to Coventry. Does he own/rent property in the West Midlands?

It’s worth noting that Colnbrook is just as close to Coventry as it is to Bournemouth which where his family is based.

Chelsea is truly local and bigger job but he really risks damaging his credibility if he drops whatever club he’s at for Chelsea every single time. A 3rd spell in a career less than 10 years is just ridiculous. That stand point is purely from a professional standpoint point.

I mean, I've no idea what his family circumstances are, but just pointing out that there may be other factors outside of football that would perhaps influence him. I'd be amazed if he went to Bournemouth though

 

[Hybridtheory]

He won't leave he's been burnt before after leaving derby when he was at Chelsea and Everton. His rep is high at the moment

Pretty sure they live in Chelsea.

He probably has more than one home.

Everything in football is temporary. He won’t be here forever. I think he gives us 1 year in the prem. if relegated, he goes. If we do well and stay up, maybe year. Then I think he goes.

Can’t seeing buying property up here unless he’s happy to rent it out when the time comes he goes.

Bournemouth job aside (which would probably ideal as the next stepping stone (established PL side/location/less fan pressure), I think it would have to be a settled mid table team. I don't think the big teams will risk their CL ambitions until he's established himself in the PL/ If we stay up, then all bets are off.

I obviously don't live exactly where Lampard does... I wish! But I obviously drive up to Cov (or Kenilworth) regularly and it's really not that bad of a drive. I also drove to Bournemouth recently and that was significantly more painful, took a fair bit longer in the end.
I assume people just think "oh its down south so it must be closer." It really isn’t.

 

[SafeAsMilk]

The Bournemouth manager leaving because they are at the top of their level, probably above it, which is impressive but … have no fans, tiny stadium and no ambition/funding to push on … what’s the point in Frank taking that on? In some ways is hiding to nothing…

Bournemouth are expending their stadium to 20 k , but I think as a club they are at the top of their level .

 

[RoboCCFC90]

As others have mentioned I see his next job after us being the England one.

He’s worth £75m - buying and selling property isn’t going to factor into it.

I’m sure that it was published somewhere that he commutes from Colnbrook but haven’t found anything.

For a lot of managers, they crack on with it. Neil Warnock’s family were based in Cornwall when he was manager at Middlesbrough-Lona.

Yep I know that area well- essentially Slough ( but uber posh)

An hour and 40 down the M40 if traffic is behaving. I bet he is home a fair bit during the week.

I'm sure I read that one of his daughters is a student at Oxford and drives up and stays with him a night or two each week.
