Harry Redknapp to Stoke, please.

Harry (the) Potter. The headlines write themselves.

Watch some MOR club come in for him thinking they are getting a big name and a big reputation. When will clubs learn, playing for Fergie doesn’t make your Fergie.

They're going to end up with a dross of a manager like Paul Lambert

Paul Lambert set to be named Stoke manager.

Their 4th or 5th choice...

Really interested to see how he does.

He did an excellent job with Colchester and Norwich.

Then he made the ridiculous decision to take over Villa. A big club with demanding fans but massive financial mismanagement for over a decade resulting in an ageing squadand no money.

He then took over Blackburn, another club run ridiculously badly.

No idea what happened at Wolves but interested to see how he does with a Prem club again.

Curious to see how Paul Lambert will do as manager for Stoke. They got potential to be a topp 10 club but I think Hughes has done a lot of weird signings over the past three seasons. Signing players based on their names and not performance

I don't get the thinking behind this. He's flopped in his last two jobs which were in the Championship, but he's suddenly getting a chance at a Premier League club? I can see the sense in appointing someone experienced like Hodgson, or Big Sam, but this just seems like a strange appointment.

Jobs for the boys. Same old shit managers being passed around just to be inevitably sacked in 6 months.
