Money talks, what an odd management journey though

Welsh job seems a blip in an otherwise average management career. What a blip though, great memories.
Fulham, Real Sociedad, Coventry, AEL (Cyprus), Wales, Sunderland, Hebei China Fortune. Very strange career
He comes across as a nice guy and led Wales to the semi finals of the Euros, nothing but respect for him and I hope he does well
To quote his own words on Sky a few years ago with regards to the job in Cyprus...Originally Posted by City123
"No chairman in Britain would allow me to play the style of play I want to use".
Seems he needs the Chinese money to hire a proctologist to remove his head from his **** - his Coventry side were the worst route one side I've ever seen, made Slade look like Guardiola.
A case of Hebei China Fortune Cookie I guess!
The secret is in the word Fortune , and he has made one in just his last two jobs ,he' will be our Steve Mclaren ,where the England job got him loads of opportunity , club football would never have delivered , or raised his profile and dosh .
not even a average manager, he appears to be a likable bloke though
He landed right on his feet with the Welsh side, it often picked itself and everything clicked into place, it was fun though
He left his wife and kids for Charlotte Jackson. And now Wales have hired Ryan Giggs who bedded his brother’s wife. Who next?
Euro 16 was amazing. But it was all down to Gareth Bale not Coleman.
Finding it hard without Rambo, Bale and 10 other EPL players.
P.S. He's not"nice".
In my view its was a marvellous collective effort, headed up by Bale , Ramsey ,Allen and dare I say it Ashley Williams.
Add in a good backroom team, who along with the team , Mgr and nation , brought togther a once in a lifetime moment , probaly never to be repeated , incredible will to win .
Remind me again what "Ash" actually did?
Oisian, Bale, Rambo, and a large slice of 'lady luck', were the main contributors to Euro 2016
Williams scored our equaliser in the Belgium game
The england job and the «*wally with a brolly*» match basically got maclaren blacklisted from being appointed in this country, he had to go abroad to Holland to raise it and it was only winning the league there that let him not be seen as a complete joke.
Fun fact: Andy Townsend's wife came up with 'wally with a brolly'. He had a daily mail column at the time and mentioned it to a sub editor (or someone) as he was submitting his column.
I mentioned "Lady Luck" in my OP ;)
He has a head like a 50p piece!
Because of his wife managers have been getting soaking wet ever since because they’re afraid to use umbrellas
The amount of times you see them in expensive suits on the touchline soaked through is great.
China is the new Coventry
Hope he remembers his passport
He must have the worst agent in football.
I know yeah what a shite agent getting him the most money he’ll ever earn.
Good to see the premier league Cardiff supporters drifting back.
He has made some terrible managerial decisions.
Yes, I am sure he will be on good money but at the top of his game when Wales reached the Euro SF, to leave and go to Sunderland started the downward trend.
How the feck does he get away with it? He’s fecking shit
His stock was the highest it was ever going to get and he went to sunderland, i guess the money was good
