Ernie For England Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 In 24 hours we'll finally know who it is and all the annoying rumours will be over. Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 From memory, Bunn's record as boss consists of losing one game 6-0 But as a player he scored 6 in one game...now if he could transfer that goal hunger to the Latics strikers it will do me.

garcon Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Now this is interesting. Living and working near Stockport, as I do, I occasionally pick up a few snippets. Usually it's the sort of half-cocked rumour that I can happily ignore, but this is different. I have it on unique authority that over the past 48 hours there has been somewhat frenzied contact between OAFC and SCFC. The upshot is our new manager, despite all the reports is not Paul Dickov. It is, however, someone closely connected to Stockport. Somone who's appointment would doubtless divide opinion. Nope, not Jim Gannon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still nice to look at though, not my favourtite. THat's Susannah Reid. Georgie Thompson does not count as a newsreader does she?!

garcon Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 It wasn't made perfectly clear to be honest. I assumed the ultimate cheap option... (presuming Gannon is taking over at Stockport). i.e. Gary Ablett. I wonder if he can still play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaticsPete Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Bearing in mind the significant media coverage of Dickov going to be appointed (and the internet means that anywhere in the world has access to the story), if it isn't PD then why hasn't he denied it himself?

Yup... Only reason I could think is he is going to be number 2 and has to keep quiet... I would be surprised if he wasn't announced as manager in the morning...

longtimeblue Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 There was a big article in the Evening News the other day with Royle singing his praises.
