Yes, I've read something similar, TNT sports supposedly. Plus his daughter is pregnant and wants to stay put plus the whole Mrs drama will always be nagging him for more time etc especially when he becomes a Grandpa, we need someone who is solely committed to the job at hand for however many seasons in charge.

Wonder if he has spoken with Alan Hutton also, curiosity did they play together? * yes they did for a few years from 2008/2011

May as well fling Vardy in aswell 😂

Gerrard was interviewed for the role but ruled himself out over the last few days. Couple of reasons doing the rounds are a deal with a TV company and the fact his wife and family ruled out moving to Scotland with him (again). He had support within the club and was seen as the "safe" appointment as he knows the club, knows the league, knows what's expected and off course was "successful" here previously.

Nope. I don't think Gerrard returning was really on the cards.

Was it the same one who said it was Gerrard the middle of last week?

I read that a Saudi team is willing to pay £100 million for the Manchester United captain given that he's 30yrs old I say sell now if we could only get them interested in some of our stars

People huv tae know!!! Is this deal watertight!!?

I favour Martin over Ancelotti. Although, I think Fagioli is the best option out of the names mentioned, but I'm not sure about the link's validity.

I think i will stick a few shillings on Inter Milan to lift the champions league trophy aye mon the tallys

To be fair, another reliable poster on another forum said Martin was interviewed again today.

Christ, even Keevins thinks the bhoy's an idiot. 🤣

What was I saying about your negativity, compo?

For the first time in many a year i'm looking forward to our first competitive match

I think it will be Russell Martin

I do not know. So I really need to get on with what we now have.

Nice re-tweet from SF49ers even if they did get the red, white & blue in the wrong order 😃

Cautiously optimistic about this. They obviously feel there is money to be made here but that will require money being spent and a successful team on the park.

... I read that as 20m of investment from these new boys. While no-one knows, there is essentially another half of shareholders who might have a few million to spare too. Aside from player sales. That said ... these 20m might not be used for transfers alone (though the women's team needs a new backline too). We, too, must be clever in our business for the time being, but apart from Americans like these, there are few businessmen on this planet who are cleverer.

Ancelotti announced on Tuesday, according to a reliable poster elsewhere.

You're absolutely right. We should be wary of them, but we can be wary and excited at the potential of the great unknown. There's not a contradiction in that. Why not allow ourselves to be excited? Why be pessimistic? It's like every player we sign. I hope he's going to be brilliant for us, and hopefully our new owners will be a well. They won't get everything right but as long as they're moving us in the right direction then that's a positive.

Whose gloss is that? Gerrard’s or the Club’s? Can’t argue, though. The time is not right. Nor will it ever be.

I can see where you are coming from but like many, probably including yourself, I've agonised over what we needed to.make us into a successful football club. I think we all can agree that the now previous board / investors had taken us as far as they could. They basically admitted as much themselves. Given that, and with not many other options, this seems the safest gamble (and we had to gamble). They are currently investing in Leeds and most Leeds fans speak positively about them. This is a genuine question from.genuine interest, if not this investment, what would you have liked to happen?
