Northern Red Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 Who are Radio Verulam and why should we pay any attention to them? 2 hours ago, Curr Avon said: Now let me get this straight. Hughton is the fans' (and my) first choice, but the club's second choice. Cook is the second first choice and Neill is the bookies' choice. Holden is the housewives choice and Robbie Fowler is the choice of people with more money than sense and a vivid imagination. Do we have any other choice? Just asking for a friend. Sophie's?

Offside Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 Good luck Matty. Whether he was good enough is up for debate, but as mentioned in the OP he didn’t get a huge number of opportunities. An intelligent player who always put in a shift and seemed like a good character too. All the best to him. Edit - oops, wrong thread, mods please can you move to the Matty Taylor thread????

YGBjammy Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 Let's be honest, it was probably someone without much football knowledge just googling his name and it came up with a load of Bristol city articles and so assumed he was with us?

petehinton Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 I’m just clinging to the fact he would’ve had to agreed to appear at that kick off at 3 charity thing on Sunday, and has said to them he’s taken the job or something. Much more likely that they’ve just assumed that talksport/fake tweet was real Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellfire Corner Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 Just spoken to Andy Cole (yes, that Andy Cole!!) at my local golf club (incidentally he plays golf left handed and hit a cracking shot off the first tee!!) I spoke to him about City - his first comment was “you’re looking for a new manager” He said that Watford were really interested as well but that if CH came to us he would definitely get us promoted- he said he’s a great manager and one of the nicest men you could meet.

Nugget Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 Gotta wonder if August 1st / a new month has some sort of contractual impact even from a past employer. I also agree if it were an accident surely if it’s a novice googling him they would just use his wikipedia or something of previous clubs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BS4 on Tour... Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 4 hours ago, Saunders87 said: For me - Hughton is the man that we will announce. Breaking it down, Neil and Cook both come with compensation clauses, and both will expect a relatively high salaries alongside it, Neil an experienced manager in the championship with promotions on his CV from the division, and Cook is in demand so is in a great position to negotiate. Holden although thought highly of by some of the board, will be a risk that the club can not afford to make in this current time. Neil has only got one promotion on his CV from this division, Hughton has a much better track record and won’t come cheap. But I hope Hughton will be our next Manager ...

In terms of pay off from Brighton you'd assume his contract would've ran to end of June, so he'd be into what would have been the last year of his contract at Brighton now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sturny Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 The fact we had Gerrard as our first choice does seem rather ambitious, some might disagree but he would for sure raise our profile. That does feel me with more confidence that we're somewhat aiming high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unprofessional if that is what has happened and doesn’t bode well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
