Not sure how you've worked that out.. Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!!

I have sent in my application and await my interview date. I have promised that I am ready and will not pull out at the last minute. My first job will be to employ every ex player that I have ever seen at Selhurst to my backroom staff... Some people are like Slinkies … not really good for anything, but you can’t help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs.

Not sure how you've worked that out.. the only players on that list out of contract are Townsend and Cahill, Yes a new CD would be great, lonas for one, lookman and loftus cheek or Gallagher, and buy a RB and hope Ferguson gets fit, who can also play at CB, and its a decent squad “That’s a joke son, I say, that’s a joke.” “Nice boy, but he’s sharp as a throw pillow.” “He’s so dumb he thinks a Mexican border pays rent” “ “Son… I say, son, some people are so narrow minded they can look through a keyhole with both eyes.”__ Forhorn Leghorn

Maybe we should take a flyer on Klinsmann, letting him use his contacts in Germany, England and the U.S. to bring in some promising young under-the-radar types and make it a tri-nation training squad. He'll need to hire a good tactics coach. I doubt he'd take the job, though, same as the other high-profile candidates with brains. At best the upside is moving us from roughly 15th to 10th in the table. Given our finances and current squad, over the next three years it's far more likely that we'll stay right where we are or slip, or fall.

So if you and your Orange are right then Favre would not have taken any PL job or indeed any job in the UK and just decided to waste time as he had nothing better to do. I am convinced Originally posted by steeleye20 Favre has just explained to Swiss TV that he didn't want to take a job outside the EU. He didn't actually say anything about the UK, the hostile environment, or brexit. Not at all. Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

Originally posted by orpingtoneagle When will folks realise/accept we are not shopping in Waitrose we are shopping in Poundland. A decent manager is a decent manager for a reason. They don't take on an impossible task. Dougie will be announced shortly I think Freedman’s presence is part of the problem. The so called structure of the club is conducive to appointing a head coach rather than a manager and we were fortunate that a couple of experienced heads like Roy and Ray were prepared accept the relative lack of control. Freedman and SP are hardly a proven recruitment team but we seem to be asking experienced managers to trust them to help build a squad upon which they’ll have to stake their reputation. This against a backdrop of spending nothing in four years and an unsettled Board. I think SP has listened too much to fans and everyone has got well carried away.
