They’ve maybe said it a few times then as I feel like I’ve read it on here quite a few times :greengrinQuote:

500k for the remaining four games Sam Allardyce in advanced talks to take over from Javi Gracia as Leeds manager | Leeds United | The Guardian gtf
Director of football Victor Orta has left by mutual consent.
at long last :agree: the long list of utter dross that man has been allowed to spend huge amounts of £££ on is horrendous
But Big Crooked Sam!? What a mess they are in.Quote:

The Guardian link is brilliant. Last line there would usually be a role for Sammy Lee but he is currently on jury service :greengrinQuote:

Leeds are my English team and I'm not holding out much hope for them. Their run in is Man C, Newcastle, West Ham and Spurs.
At least they are certs to win the last game of the season. [emoji1787]Quote:

It was Jim Goodwin and he turned round to see me with a Hibs top on as we are heading to Edinburgh after his game
Was tempted to ask him about the 6-0 game or Ryan Porteous.

Read in the Sun that Gary Bowyer is in the frame for the Blackpool job with Dundee lining up Callum Davidson as new manager .
Did he not manage Blackpool before?Quote:

For Dundee to stand any chance in staying up next year they would need to invest quite a bit of money in basically a new squad imo . Not sure the Dundee board will tbh personally think the Dundee jobs a bit of a poison chalice if it becomes available.Quote:

I think Gary Bowyer is being quite clever in leaving at the right time as a hero that got them promoted before the **** hits the fan . Callum Davidson would be a great appointment for Dundee though I don't think Dundee are a good choice of club for him in all fairness.

Not for Davidson I would say, most St Johnstone fans will tell you it was when he started having to replace players is when he struggled. Isn’t known for his recruitment, although with Strachan there might be better.Quote:

Sure Jack Ross is a Dundee fan. Wonder if he'd be tempted. The Newcastle gig he has is a good one though especially with him still being based in the north east with his family.
I think Newcastle only gave him a short contract . He would be another good option for them imo. Wonder will Robbie neilson be considered for it ? 🤔Quote:

Haven't heard much about lennon though I'd doubt he would be interested in the Dundee job tbh . Imagine the anger in Gorgie if Dundee beat hertz with neilson in charge. 😂Quote:
