A person with no meaningful management experience replacing another? Sounds like a recipe for success.Quote:

Ramsey's not going to be our manager - he's going to play in Mexico... according to the Sun!

There was one word in the first paragraph that leapt out, but the word “dither” seems appropriate every time we’re looking for a new manager, not just this once.Quote:

I don't disagree with your first paragraph incidentally
Maybe someone has confused Guadalajara with Gabalfa.Quote:

It strikes me that we have got to such a state as a club that respected posters like you are willing to considering believing the Sun - that is how bad our club is at not communicating or dare I say it sorting a managerial appointment out 🤔Quote:

Judging by the videos doing the rounds of the Welsh players last night calling Ramsey “Gaffer”, I’m sure we’ll be put out of our (or into depending on your own view) misery in the next couple of days.
The club would have taken applications and done interviews by all accounts. You would assume said candidates are interested.Quote:

I agree unless something really put them off during the interview process. The danger with us having so many ex managers is that any prospective candidate could call them up and ask what it’s like working for VT. I imagine the references weren’t good ones.Quote:

Warnock made some very good free signings in the summer of 2017, but, surely, one lesson Tan should have learned by now is that City don’t tend to prosper when we try to cut corners financially.
What a shock eh? Who could possibly turn down such an opportunity to work for Vincent Tan…..oddQuote:

I'd imagine he could get a playing contract somewhere closer than Mexico. Would that distance be good for any WC prep. I know Bale did it but it didn't make a lot of sense other than the lifestyle.
Maybe he just really likes the food.
It's where the next world cup is. I imagine he'll mention that in his press conference.Quote:
