Was on the shortlist for the Rangers job.

He won the Europa League in 2022, has twice won promotion to the Bundesliga & the sides he’s been in charge of qualified for Europe 7 years (2107-2023) running.

Admire the ambition but this would suggest he’s way out of our current league.

Can you imagine Tinnion presenting him with a list of players to sign?

If KITR is saying the bloke on the shortlist is German, he’s also Austrian.

Yep, he’s waiting for his next ‘project’ apparently.

I can’t imagine most coaches taking crap off BT to be fair.

I only noted him as DaveF’s name was also Austrian so was adding another Austrian.

Ralph Hasenhüttl? Appreciate he's Austrian but he's worked a lot in Germany...

What’s Jurgen Klinnsmann up to these days??

South Korea Coach, on a contract until 20226 World Cup.

First part.. it does not include the part where JL talks about the international breaks (that was broadcast)

This should be tomorrow’s new favourite with the bookies.

much more believable also

Just watched the Vyner interview. Got some bloke holding the microphone. Spotted a hand about 10 minutes in . Surely they can put a couple of microphones on the table. Seems so amateur 

Could also hear kids shouting in the background, or maybe it was JL interviewing new candidates. 

Zak says 'split the fanbase'" I'm not seeing that.

Meets the club at 11am today. That has come from a very good friend of his. HE WILL be our manager by the end of tomorrow Friday. He will be at Ashton Gate on Saturday to watch the team. I don't care if people want to dismiss what I've said, but my friend is someone who has known Frank since they were both at West Ham in the mid 90s and Frank has openly told him since Sunday afternoon, he wants this job. He sees us as an under achieving team who should be in the Premier League. 

The posted above who said his agent met the club, that is not true in the slightest. Frank technically doesn't have an agent, he has a business manager, and financial consultant, but neither of those get involved in football related matters. He approached a member of our staff, and he was put in touch with someone. He spent 2 hours on the phone with them on Monday, saying why he wanted the job, and made it clear, he is serious about taking Bristol City to the Premier League.

Since then, he has been sorting out personal matters and meets the club today, but he wants the job. Also, I've read that people are saying Jody Morris will come with him, he won't. As said on the other thread the other day, Michael Johnson, the England Under 18 coach will be coming with him, as his assistant, not Jody. Frank is heavily impressed by our academy and youth development and thinks that he and Johnson can help progress a number of youngsters and take the club forward.

Call out all you want, say what you want, and if I am wrong I am wrong, but I won't be. Since Frank got in touch, the club turned their attentions away from Eustace and Rowett and feel that Lampard matches the clubs ambition and remit. 

I will say it one final time, and wont be posting again until he is announced as manager, which means if he isn't, I wont post again full stop. Frank Lampard will be our new manager, he is expected to sign a deal today and it will be announced tomorrow, and he will be at the game on Saturday. Michael Johnson will assist him. 

I think your next post will be from robinforlife3

Tinman showing his TRUE allegiance here, (best mate few months ago) it stinks and this does not sit well with me, very poor.

Meet him few years back, not the sharpest tool in the box.

Loves the sound of his own voice doesn't he!

I noticed his profile on FB is actually a 'Public Figure' profile, full of followers from all over the world, i.e. fake/paid for ones.

Been used in a way like SOD was, cost cut the squad and not supported.

Gutted

Just listened back to him on RB.

So FM is off, he says they will just get loans/investment to build the other 3 sides to The Mem and recoup from extra revenue, I'm no business man but I don't think it's just as easy as that, especially as a football club.

Also, he alluded to the fact the FM was way off when he came in and that anything he says will be what's happening and actually agreed, too not get fans hopes up etc. in the future.  What with the video they put out and what everyone was saying in here (The FM news was no news) he's pretty much said that Wael has been leading the Blue Few up the Garden Path these last few years. Wael has never had the mass money required and I don't think this dude has either. Still, they'll lap it all up.

With Tiny Penis as DOF?

Well they are 23 Gap years behind us now (and 23 years ago with us) so that could be a good start.

One of the better ones that guys 

They only appoint ex Fleetwood managers these days don't they?

Didn't one of their bellends recently post that Chris Martin will be better when he gets up to speed? My first car was a battered Ford Escort mark 2 estate, and with its better days behind it I can honestly say that it never really got up to any speed of note during my ownership.

Much like Chris Martin I suppose...

They think it’s Aston Martin.

Not listened to this one yet but I bet the team picked itself again this week 

Ian is ok, he just likes the sound of his own voice, which is generally good thing for a chat/podcast.

OK Rovers; I've found a stadium that may be suited to your needs. It's not too far from the Mem, down at Eastville. Looks a bit ramshackle, but you're used to that.

Building new stands that look like Eastville… GasLogic ‘we keeping it retro’
