More than half. Surprised Mourihno wasn't included. Unless a boatload of money is added the pile, Pearson will likely get the nod. And he is crap, why he gets credit for Leicester having a great season is beyond me. The guy is a bit like Cotterill, effective to a point at a given level...but limited when the level increases.

Maybe, but he still smells like bigfoots dick!

"We have improved results wise 55% under Cotterill which is as good an improvement as we could have expected." Steve should change his Blue Stratos cologne for some 'Sex Panther' by Odeon, 60% of the time it works...every time. And it's made with bits of real Panther. See what i did there?

Listening to SOD orate was like sipping a fine wine. La Crema Chardonnay (perhaps 2007 vintage?) would be appropriate. So what if it's light citrus flavors were accented by hints of red pepper emotion (arm waving). The long and strong finish accented the oak flavors. It definitely lived up to its La Crema cliche, as the flavor of cream shined through. I could almost detect a hint of saffron spiced joviality in his reflections , but certainly the words that I drank were not worth slowing down my reflexes. But that was the beauty of this gifted conversationalist, he was a decent 'glass' to have after work, or with some mild cheese. Small berries with firm acidity. Lively citrus, subtle toasted oak, butterscotch, yellow apple, bright orange. Lovely vibrancy. Not a man for the 'stupid question.' Listening to SC is like necking a warm can of Tenants super, sticking your head in a dustbin and asking your kids to hit it with a cricket bat, in the rain, on a Monday.

Pro-rata facts presumably

You should be a UKIP politician spinning those statistics to fit your argument. How many Romanian immigrants are really flooding into the UK? (on a 'pro rata' basis of course). We were in the shite with SOD but I saw some room for being optimistic over the longer term, with SC we are still in the shite, just less reasons to be confident. If you were trapped on a desert island would you rather be stuck with SOD or SC? SOD would probably want to study the tide patterns for a few months, design a decent raft, source materials and supplies and make a calculated risk at survival on the high seas. SC would tell you to drink your own wee and swim for it, telling you that sharks are not really dangerous and that Tom Hanks made it to safety in that film so you should be OK...

Semantics.

Brendan Rogers was interviewed last night on talksport. He was asked which English managers he admired. First name he mentioned? SOD. Did he mention SC? I hear you ask... No, he did not. Why? Because SC is not a considered, tactically minded manager who build success with a long term strategic vision. SC flies in on a waft of cheap cologne, held up by strong hold hair gel and a firm jaw, clenched fists and a call to arms. I am not an expert on football management, neither (believe it or not) are 99.9% of the posters on OTIB. But Brendan Rogers IS. And no I am not a Liverpool fan either.

He IS a winner. 3.5 year contract for a lower league journeyman manager. That's like winning the lottery. Sad thing is, with all that cash all he will do is buy a bigger gold necklace and more hair gel. We deserve better, but life is seldom fair...

'I'm a winner' Thanks Steve.

A 'stand out player' in a 3-0 defeat... He is a busted flush, like most of the crud bought by SC.

Another on of the numerous problems would appear to be SC whose knuckle headed honesty and misplaced optimism got on an awful lot of city fans tits....

If Wade Elliott is the 'answer' then are truly doomed.

Penalty SU

Cotterill is a cave man trying to build a space ship. He really is hopeless.
