Even tho I saw the end of that team totally agree! That team was put together without real competition or wages that we couldn’t meet, which todayis a pipe dream.Can u imagine Everton, half decent got a bit of potential or even spurs a very strong team two game cup finals and fa cup seminfinals a League cup final Edited May 11, 2019 by latics22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He lived in digs on Higginshaw Lane, Heyside near my works. Used to see him in the mornings quite often walking to training. Remember being absolutely gutted when he left for Leicester! Wasn’t he one of the first players to leave a club by ‘freedom of contract’ or something? Edited May 12, 2019 by oafc1955 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeroyboy Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 While we’re historically hopeless at guessing a next manager and even more so at guessing what AL will do next - what about a French manager we have never heard of, signing a bunch of French players we don’t know. But he does. Could be a way forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would always consider Steve Evans an option, despite his panto villain reputation. In terms of reputation hes better than anyone we've had for years.

oafc1955 Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Working for our chairman though? nah Seemingly Its not ideal for anyone to work with AL. IMO, if the next manager leaves double quick, then owner or not, I think AL’s position here would become untenable! He has to get this next appointment right otherwise fans will turn against him in a big way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
