I'm sure I just read it on my feed but I now can't find it :shrug:

I haven’t seen it
Very odd. It just appeared and was gone. I even saw some reactions to it pop-up.
Either somebody at the club was trigger happy, or it's time for me to log-off.
sounds like the stuff of nightmares
Apparently contract all done and signed but a bit of teaser as to whether it is bulut or not - sAUcE be the other board 👍Quote:

If he's given a longer deal, we'll all be moaning the state of the football, and the lack of chances for youth. But if he's dismissed, then we'll complain about the revolving door of managers, and the lack of any stability.
I do love a lose-lose situationQuote:

While I'm not particularly fond of his approach, I anticipate the hyperbolic reactions from some on here to be quite entertaining should he stay. The only reason i'm here for the next few days is that announcement.
Spider sense tell me he'll be gone, just like sabri lamouchi, who doesn't appear in any excel or stat, but was the coolest, best looking, and suave of all recent City managers, a heart breaker!
I think that he'll(Bulut) sign the 1 year deal. I can't see clubs queuing up for his services. And if he's sacked in November then it's back to wherever he lives, safe in the knowledge that he has another 9 months of pay or a sizeable pay off coming his way. I do agree with you though, there will be the usual people on here repeating themselves. Stuff like 'We could be bottom of the Fourth Division' and all that. It never disappoints.Quote:

Exactly it has gone from contract all sorted with minor detail to be sorted to if this gets over the line then some will be pleasantly surprised by parts of it.Quote:

I didn't think I'd see Tan and footballing philosophy in a sentence.Quote:

Oh indeed, that's why i was careful to say recent managers. Kenny was a chiseled Greek god!Quote:
