Apparently his coaching methods are similar to Roys, strong matchlike drills etc.

Hes been SAF's assistant since 2008 so much have something especially as SAF decided to promote him rather than bring someone in when Queiroz left.

Your observation of being dour is one downside however.

Phelan would be a sodding disaster.

Holloway or Phelan? :D

Bloody hell. Git  ;D

Holloway by the way. I just can't imagine Mike Phelan as a manager to be honest.

Phelan is obviously very knowledgeable but I just dont see him as a leader of men and we need a leader of men. Would be a very dodgy direction to go and open to ridicule IMO

Yes hes 20/1, its Ragnicks to turn down in which case AVB will be offered it, nothing new, nothing ITK about it, the papers have been so full of rubbish for weeks.

Stuck a tenner on when it was 50/1  :P

If it is AVB, i'd be very happy both with the appointment, as well as a bulging wallet :D

If AVB wants to go europe then he will probably have pick of some huge clubs but if he wants England we may be the ones!
We MAY be the ones, yes. And Father Christmas MAY be real. And Liverpool MAY get into the top 4 next season, And,,,,,,,,,,ok you get my drift !!!

If our new manager turns out to be AVB I will be shocked and to coin a footballing phrase (thread already going for this) over the moon son over the moon.

AVB would be perfect WBA

At least there is a chance Father Christmas may be real, Liverpool in the top 4 though! Fantasy stuff!

I agree but only because of the deepness of feeling from fans in my view.

I cant stand the bloke but still rate him highly..would I want him at the club...No.

Not sure if it's already been mentioned (can't be arsed to trawl through the pages) but a press conference is due at 2pm tomorrow. Apparently, by no means confirmed.

Also, not sure if it's been covered, but I imagine it has something to do with tomorrow being the 1st June.

Just saying.

Are we really interested any more in who actually will be our next coach or has this descended into a simple attempt to break the page record and be the first to break the news when it arrives. Ive got this sad vision of hundreds nee thousands of baggies fans camped at their computer screen surrounded by empty pizza boxes whilst furiously flicking through the 25 windows open on the desktop for the golden nugget of information................i need to go and lie down

Maybe Rangnick was waiting to see what happened with the Liverpool and Villa jobs?

I just hope he wasn't looking at Norwich or Swansea too...

And to think, people are now stressing about the delay on our managerial appointment, a good few weeks before they can actually do anything with the squad or new acquisitions anyway.

If this is a sign of expectations for the season, I am going to resign from the internet.
