Oh well, Emery would have been fantastic. On a more realistic level, have to take baby steps for now and ensure NUFC stays in the PL and gradually becomes more attractive to top managers and players. Kinda sucks that it potentially fell through cos of amateur stuff like leaks though.

A lot of the anxiety here came from the league position we are in. Add to a lack of news and the two lackluster performances, it is understandable why people wanted things to move faster. I wouldn't be as worried if we are mid-table.

Was wondering who you would be happy with.

OMG, good appointment. Worth the wait after all.

He has the distinction of being the first to go into my ignore list on this new forum.

Would be continuing on engagement and communication if they can come out to assure the fans about any managerial progress (without specific names or confidential stuff of course). Been absolutely quiet this week.

How long more is it going to take to hire the new manager?

Darlow.

Near.

Need his pace and running to peg them back a bit.

5-0 Chelsea.

About due time someone replaces Pickford for England.

Great. Hope he's back. The team missed him so much.

Only instance I am fine with having Martinez is that he is here until end of season, until a big name becomes available and comes in during the summer. But why would he do so?

Has his stock fallen that badly? Seem to recall a couple of seasons where he was good.

The name and numbers are also misaligned.

Great, we can sell OPTIONS to rename our stadium, our training ground, the carpark, TV screens, overseas academies, retail outlets.

Cos people now have hope and finally there's a buzz around the club after so long. They are doing their due diligence in getting the right person(s) but we are all excited.

Think the article says his 27% stake makes them worth 700m, not the stake itself is 700m.

Better be a name that is worth the wait. It is the most important appointment we need now, along with a DOF, to coach the team and to decide what is our transfer strategy in Jan.

No way we will get Simeone man.

Ajax have one of the best academies and the technical players which came through for Ten Haag to work with. Imagine him coming here and inheriting a squad that cannot even pass a ball.

Where's the one for Bruce?

6m, and he was a reliable player for them for ages. Luck could pay a part but a big part is also on the correct scouting setup, to identify the de Bruynes, Lukakus and Salah that Chelsea signed.
