I voted none of the above. Quite simply it's time to break the mould and hire an alien.

Another thread... :sad11:

Other business..

SSN has probably got shares in most of the bookies, it's in their interests to have punters backing all the wrong horses.

Mort takes orders when all is said and done. He can't really be held accountable that one of those orders makes previous statements redundant.

www.sportinglife.com Trying to imagine what Ashley and Kenwright would have to talk about... ... ......... .. Nah, mind's blank.

How can you think he'd do well if you don't know much about him?

Who has just been on?

He'd be as bad as Shepherd if he didn't. I was thinking on it before falling asleep last night. My best guess is that he'll be unveiled the day after Man Utd. (Would hardly be fair to any new boss to have to take that lot on as his first game.)

What's almost as amazing is how many people make their minds up about what happened from pure speculation and couple of rumoured 'facts'.

Possibly one of the most bizzare suggestions I have seen in a newspaper yet, from the Mirror: "One option likely to appeal to Ashley would be the prospect of Redknapp bringing his son, Jamie, to work alongside him." WTF!?

Not sure about this tide of enthusiasm for Mourinho. Don't think the premiership is his ideal canvas, unless he has paints worth 300m.

All we need is good football.

There should be a major uplift in playing from the boys, so i guess we'll only get beat by about 2 goals rather than the 4 that was on the way.

So is the Portsmouth job the first one he's had money to spend then? I assume he never had so much at West Ham..

I will follow you I think most of us will be, better buy shares in Kleenex actually.

Just a point about this 'mutual agreement' thing. Considering how shocked he appeared to be I suspect he was 'asked' to take a severance offer, his agreement allowed the phrase to be used - rather than sacked, which is really what has happened.

Give him the job.

I wonder if I am the only person that actually reads a whole thread before posting in it? erm, I've forgot what I wanted to say now..

You take a few hours off from the internet and all hell breaks loose.

Caramel flavoured hemorrhoid cream?

I know what you mean about looking at rejects but our hands are tied pretty much at the moment. The other option is to look at smaller clubs and get their prized assets, however, I am sure there would be many that would criticise that policy as well. THe two players that we have been heavily linked to Brown and Diarra at least are good young players that the clubs that they play for don't really want to leave, its not as if either is on the transfer list. Defoe would be different he doesn't want to leave but again that could work in our favour, if the guy is pushed out he would be even more determined to prove Spurs wrong!! Well thats my positive spin on things anyway!! Brown is 28.

Think Defoe would probably do well in an Allardyce team. Could replace any of our lot and improve it I reckon.

He calls Geremi his second daddy in that video. He's signing for sure. Well, certainly hope his footballing skills don't take after his father. Geremi was alright until he started following Allardyce instructions, took a few weeks and lo he was visibly a poorer player.

You don't think this thread qualifies from the reverse perspective?
