I don't know, they have in the past addressed some issues fairly head on - like on cup policy.

This (on McClarens appearance) is telling. There were incredibly tough and testing questions that needed to be asked last night and I bet anything they weren't.

Will probably take a few days. Hope his appearance did nothing to stop questions being asked over the ambition of his appointment...

For good?

If you want to do it sensibly, put up a no thrills basic page in a foreign language Wikipedia and have someone from our international contingent tweet it at him, suggesting that he has been linked in the local press.

The bit about us in that quote is made up like. How do you know? http://www.ed.nl/sport/voetbal/psv/wijnaldum-vorig-jaar-verwachtten-ook-velen-dat-ik-niet-zou-blijven-1.5059832 Might not be made up, but I haven't seen it reported anywhere else.

Luke Edwards rated the chances of him signing at 8/10. I suspect we probably are interested - at the right price. But equally I am sure he will just be using us to draw out bigger clubs.

Pete Graves was defending Moncur rigorously on Twitter a couple of nights ago, don't know if anyone saw it (he has deleted all the Tweets now). Was met with a torrent of abuse.

Can you try and get an answer - or at least the official line on this murky 'preferred media partner' business?

Can we get like an optimism poll or something in here? Genuinely surprised by some of the largely positive outpouring social media.

Shot themselves in the foot big time with this. On the back foot with just about every media outlet in the country now.

Confirmed. http://www.nufc.co.uk/articles/20150610/carver-and-stone-leave-united_2281670_4780186

Billows is a strange one. Here less than 12 months and arrived to much fanfare? Not that he did much good during that period.

Delighted.

Is a curious move.

Wonder what Hayden Mullins and Marlon Harewood are up to tonight..

He bowed to fan pressure at Twente and resigned the second time round didn't he? At least we know if it all goes to shit and people get on his back he won't cling on like Pardew.

There's surely no way we will touch Bent.

Think he will jump at the chance. As a British coach, he almost certainly wants to be managing in the Premier League and he hasn't had the opportunity now for almost ten years.

The way he started that off I thought he was about to resign. EDIT: Has resigned.

I got Messi wrong, really peculiar hair on his silhouette.
