Well, if Lampard being appointed is true….that 5-10 year plan is looking even more deluded!!!

Dave's boy Lucien Favre getting linked with the Newcastle job apparently, along with Rodgers
I must admit, seeing Rodgers bail on yet ANOTHER club mid-season would be kind of amusing

Hope they get Favre in. Increase chances or relegation.
Imagine if Rodgers does go though?
What an absolute snake
Almost want to see it for the fume lol

Wouldn't put it past him. Go for the big salary and not really be fussed.
He ever built a side from the ground up?

stand by I’ll check his dossier
I suppose he took over a so-so Celtic team who almost botched the League against Aberdeen and then turned them into invincible treble winners with a few shrewd signings
As for Swansea and Liverpool, didn't he essentially inherit already good teams?

Still were the best team in the Scottish League though. If Neil Lennon can win back to back titles, then anyone half decent will dominate.
They were in a bit of a mess following Deila's run, so he did well to win the League so dominantly in all fairness to him, especially with Rangers back up and all the momentum on their side
@Toast and I actually had a bet on Aberdeen to win the League during the Deila days as it honestly seemed on at one stage
Yes
Newcastle fans go on about Ashley all the time but the previous owners sacked robson, appointed terrible managers, called Geordie woman dogs while in a brothel if I remember right. Also they had the likes of Dyer and Bramble getting up to very bad things in town and there was the case in a hotel in London that resulted in Shearer lamping Dyer in training and there was barely a peep out the fans cos they had a half decent team.
I think I’d start supporting a non league team. You have to stand by your principles. I wonder if the majority of our fans would be the same? I dunno.

I’m inclined to agree to a degree. Rich and powerful people are rarely squeaky clean.
Bit of an upgrade on this one though.
An oligarch who made his money in Russia during the period he did is in no way squeaky clean. There’s a reason why he set up his own company to get around anti money laundering rules in the UK

I hope he shakes hands on a deal, it gets announced and then he changes his mind 24 hours later......just like he did in July, le grande serpent.
For sure. Often think about sacking the whole thing off. Got a few local teams round me that are suitably tragic
