Moyes could go back... then I would laugh at GSB!cafcfan1990 said:Could see Rafa there but no chance Gerrard goes Everton.ย0 -
In terms of selecting a manager decisively, I would say they are in direct comparison to THFC.cafcfan1990 said:

Thats how you run a football club.
Unlike Daniel Levy who is still dicking around.0 -
Real have just gone for an experienced yes man given they'll be skint, you'd moan of Spurs did the same.
Ancelotti is decent but he's basically there so they don't have to back a Conte or Poch with too many new players.0 -

Re: the Fabrizio Romano tweet, he's followed the lead of Sky Sports Italia and a few other Italian press/media sites.
Meanwhile, The Source @SecretPrem (who broke Ancelotti to Real Madrid first) reckons Spurs will announce Pochettino at 5pm today, so who knows.
The usual ITK sources are quiet.ย They normally get wind straight away of whats going on, so having to take everything with copious amounts of salt at the mo.ย Even one of my best mates that works for the club doesnt know whats going on and he has direct links to the boardroom.ย So wont believe anything until there's a picture of someone holding a contract with a pen in his hand.

It would be classic Levy if, similarly to all those rumoured big money signings that they were going to make in bygone seasons but never actually did, they end up with Mason!1

Derek Adams has left Morecombe apparently to go to Bradford City0

Currently watching a live interview with Chris Cowlin and Fabrizio Romano.ย Looks like its actually happening.
The new DOF surely means the end of Steve Hitchen of Director of Player Recruitment - that will make a lot of Spurs fans VERY happy.

Looks like Steve Cooper is going to the Nigels.1

Don't understand that. All that effort to get promoted out of L2, and soon as it's achieved, quits to take over a L2 side!MattF said:Derek Adams has left Morecombe apparently to go to Bradford City
Yes Bradford are a much bigger club than Morecambe, but that's no guarantee of success. Richie Wellens got Swindon promoted to L1, quit after a few months to take over at Salford back in L2, where he only lasted a few months
Chairmen are rightfully attacked for not giving managers time to build a side, but a lot of managers are just as guilty, constantly jumping between jobs instead of building a club, like Ainsworth has done.1 -
Someone else did that with success not too long ago but I canโt recall who it was. I think the potential at Bradford will always be a draw. Leaves Morecombe in tough spot though. They were so lucky on the day in the play offs and unless they can buy some offensive players will desperately struggle to score next season.killerandflash said:

Brighton had an experienced British manager, and replaced him with a younger more "progressive" manager from Swansea1 - Sponsored links:

It's simple to understand, he's being paid more money.2 -
That one was understandable, as Bury collapsed weeks later, and he clearly saw the club was a shamblesCovered End said:

No, if anyone wants to read the thread it says -
"Don't understand that. All that effort to get promoted out of L2, and soon as it's achieved, quits to take over a L2 side!"
"Someone else did that with success not too long ago but I canโt recall who it was?"

Paul Cook did it, albeit a year later. Got Chesterfield promoted, then took them to the League 1 play offs before leaving to drop down to League 2 with Pompey.ย1

Bradford City have appointed former Morecambe boss Derek Adams as their new manager on a three-year contract.

It's bizarre that Bradford haven't played at Championship level since 2003-04, and have spent much of that time in L2
