I think what JJ means is that the press are just guessing, so Blanc will be a guess based only on the fact he is out of contract. The press don't actually KNOW anything, but as always, never let that get in the way of a nice story eh.

Wouldn't worry about a report with spelling mistakes in the fucking headline.
Retards, the lot of 'em. :sleep:

I don't see it being true. Joe Lewis, who knows nothing about football, isn't going to start demanding we give the job to his chosen managers? Come off it.

What did noodles ITK mean? I'm useless at cyrptics!

My first pref would be AVB then Moyes.

Not convinced on the others like Blanc. Really don't want Roberto.

I played FM2012 last night, Harry got sacked and Tony Pulis got the job. I'm just saying.....

The Moyes "interview" on MOTD at half time appeared rather impromptu (Lineker sounded quite awkward asking the questions), Moyes played the whole thing exceptionally well and I would imagine he is certainly on our list and he knows it.

The fact the interview/questioning appeared impromptu kind made the way Moyes dealt with it and came accorss rather impressive, managed to be very positive about Everton yet open to Tottenham at the same time without pissing anyone off!

Very focused and exceptionally determined chap.

If we did get Blanc let's hope he doesn't turn out like our other French dude who was in charge at the Euros, Santini, lol - "my young team".

Imagine that Blanc would want to wait a while before making any decisions. If France do well then there will be public clamour for his contract with the national team to be extended. If they crash out, we could look like an attractive escape route. Might be why there are lots of 'we're in no rush' vibes coming from the ITKs. Major tournaments have a habit of kick-starting the managerial merry-go-round.

After Santini and Ramos I also really struggle to believe that Levy/Lewis would risk anyone without proven Premiership calibre. I'd put AVB in that bracket along with Deschamps, Klopp, Blanc etc

Blanc said after the French win( first tournament win in 6 years) that if they didn't win again for 6 years that he would have long been sacked by then.... Doesn't sound like he has realised his contract is up already in a month? And sounds like he doesn't have plans to go
