Johnnyrotten Posted September 26, 2022 Author Posted September 26, 2022 3 hours ago, Dr. Feelgood said: Having been part & parcel of Forest Green for their climb into, & up, the leagues to give him 11 games is harsh. Looked at the Championship & they're 10th, 1 point behind 5th. I hope he had a long contract and they have to pay him 3 years worth. These Italians running Watford are a disgrace. That's 21 permanent managers in 14 years. Bilic only got 18 months, so its basically promotion or he's out with best part of a year's comp. If they go up, they'll struggle (as he did at WBA) and when he gets sacked before Christmas they'll only have to pay up a few months. Quote

The owners have made a decent profit on Richarlison They played Everton over Silva They will so on Sarr when they sell him, as the other bloke whose name escapes me They've had two cup semi finals, a FA cup final and a good number of years in the prem Not bad for a Watford fan under shit owners Quote

Bit like a smaller scale Abrahmovic type ownership model, slightly more trigger happy though. Quote

Benny The Ball Posted September 27, 2022 Posted September 27, 2022 Quick question - am sure someone on here will know - came up in a recent conversation Apart from Liam Richardson (Wigan ) what other ex Wanderers players are current Managers in English football and indeed in other Leagues internationally ?

bolton va va Posted September 27, 2022 Posted September 27, 2022 If John Sheridan isn't the current Oldham manager, he probably will be by this time next week. Quote

Just read an Unsworth quote: "I genuinely think this club is a sleeping giant, one that can climb up not just one league, but 2 or 3, in a short space of time". God knows what his idea of a sleeping giant is, but good luck to him. I might be revisiting that quote in 18 months because if he can get even in the top half of the National League in that time he's done a great job, unless they get a Wrexham/Stockport type benefactor.

Tonge moor green jacket Posted September 27, 2022 Posted September 27, 2022 Remarkable though that in the late 80s, we were watching them on the plastic pitch doing well in the top flight, with some top names. Good cup runs too. Quote
