Hi Ed, I heard a strong rumour at the match on Saturday that Allardyce is definitely staying and reports that he is planning for next season are true. Do you have any info on this and is this a possibility?

{Ed002's Note - As I have said, it is Allardyce who is planning for next season but I am not aware that he is definately staying. He is in a difficult position.}

Is the difficult position being created from lack of support at board level ed or is it due to the fans.

So Brands is a possible new addition in what seems a replacement for Walsh although it's still a guessing game.

What are people's thoughts on him as I know nothing about him. The Dutch league isn't the greatest quality but they do seem to produce and find good players.

Does this suggest a more continental approach and even managerial appointment from abroad or is it just to support Walsh and Sam?

Personally, his press conference suggested it wasn't going to be a step down so what does that mean for the current set up?

Many questions as usual with not real answers.

I don't care who we appoint as manager people can ring of a load of managers, but it's no good just spending money on new players, I'm mean this is not a bad squad on paper, I want to see a manager that can make players we do have better, and buy accordingly, read today He won't play Klassen cause he needs to win games what a ridiculous statement but don't tell me any midfielder as done enough to stop this lad playing, rooney can only play midfield in a 3 not 2.

Enjoyed those articles Ed001. First remember him from the game in the fog. Think Cruyff scored both in Amsterdam and Anfield.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - thank you very much Ted, really glad you enjoyed. I never got to see him as a player sadly. It is a big regret of mine because the footage shows a trul great player that I would loved to have seen play live.}

As nice as it is being linked with this DOF or this Manager or that player it's pretty pointless getting worked up until/ when it actually happens. Brands (? ) has now said he's happy where he is. True or not I doubt anything will transpire until the season is over.

If, has been widley reported, sam is to be cut loose at the end of the season, it seems strange that we are also strongly linked with new players.
Surely, who comes in and goes out, will be in the gift of the new manage. All new managers have, to some extent, to work with some of the players left by the guy before him, but he will want a very big say in new recruits. So, either sam is staying, and has been talking to agents about the summer window, or all the talk of summer targets is so much hot air?

Got to say JCW I've seen most of the rumours and I'm not even thinking anything about them until the last game is over and a statement is made as to what is happening whether it's Sam in charge (god no please) or a Fonseca or Silva I think we should take each rumour with a pinch of salt till then.

Sam did say the other week when asked, that he hadn't started working on summer recruits yet.

I have not been on here for a while because I have been so fed up with the way we have played this year. I can except losing but to many times we have lost because there isn't enough heart in this team. I said last time the only way we are going to progress is to throw the cheque book at a top boss because right now no top manager would want to come. But money talks. This marcel brands is a step in the right direction. Big Sam has done his job and should be appreciated for that. But I personally don't think he is the man who will ever win us anything can anyone honestly see him doing that? We need to move him on and a lot of the players and give a top manager time like Liverpool have with kloop. Things won't happen over night but I would be content with some progress.

I'll be honest and say I don't know anything about brands to give an assessment. Walsh for me has struggled in the DOF role and think he's had too many failures.

As for Sam. He's a very good functional manager. He does what it says on the tin.

Let's get to end of the season and see where the land lies. There's talk of Fonseca and Silva but we really need to asses what we want to achieve and make the right decision.
