You don't know that though, do you? Are you just after Big Sam because he reminds you of a fat Tony Pulis? Based on Big Sam turning round numerous clubs in dire straits Based on Moyes failing repeatedly with clubs in dire straits. Like Everton? And Preston? And West Ham?

In the interests of balance Man United lowest league position for 10 years , Sunderland relegated , sociedad sacked after a few months . Now he remains a great choice but he is not the very very best Out there both would come for the right deal as it’s a location that suits and an environment where money is available , but one will suffer no compromise one will try an work within the framework ,however I suspect it’s all over if we’ve spoken to Moyes allardyce won’t come end of , so its down to the negotiating team to close it out Fair points benj... but why don't the words 'down to the negotiating team' fill me with confidence? I share your concern , my only consolation is the family must be desperate to get a real manager to share the load and therefore may say just get the damn thing done

Is Carvalhal the candidate designed to make people more keen on Moyes?

Who or what exactly make up the Board of Stoke City ? And where does the power behind Stoke exactly lie, is it Denise ? Directors? Peter Coates John Coates Richard Smith Tony Scholes Are the board of Stoke City. The parent company is Bet365 but the club should come under Stoke City Football Club Limited, the clubs ownership address points to Media Way, Festival Park which is Bet365. Whilst no doubt Denise probably can stick her thoughts in (she is running Bet365 after all), she's not on the board.

My point being, he said that Wagner’s contract was up this summer.

Like it. But more importantly what the bloody hell does your name mean? Think you will find Marrer is a Cumbrian name for a mate/pal.[/quote No mate- not my name, I'm asking about that CBUK etc name of the other poster

Based on Big Sam turning round numerous clubs in dire straits Based on Moyes failing repeatedly with clubs in dire straits. Like Everton? And Preston? And West Ham? Like ManUre Like Real Sociadad Like Sunderland And what was so great about West Ham. Moyes hasn’t got it in him any longer to turn around around clubs in dire straits.

If we appoint Carvahal we might as well give up.
Can't see that one happening though...got to be bollocks!

The last few pages details the real issue. Who could actually pull our club through the mud and out the other side?
As much as some will dislike to hear this, the only person who's been able to do it recently is Mr Pulis. But you know what, I don't think he would come back here even if we wanted him to.
I don't think Alladyce, Moyes or Carvahal can do it, and quite frankly I don't know who can. Other things within the club have to change first.
It will be interesting to see what happens if we don't win today (today my time, anyway....)

He will steer this club in the right direction with good, attacking, exciting football. He knows the championship (and the Premiership!) so he’ll be perfect to get us up and keep us up. The swans didn’t manage to survive last year, but they were tipped to go down at the start of the season by many people, and he still did a good job - coming just short of keeping them up after a tough set of fixtures.
Carlos Cavalhal’s barmy army!
(Also - why are we being linked with such great candidates?! What happened to ‘David Moyes and QSF not on shortlist, Mick McCarthy is’? Are we becoming a progressive club? Am I jinxing it?

And instead of the press completely ignoring us we will now be the new media darlings just to see what mutterings of absolute bollocks he will come out with at press conferences.

This bloke is Rowett but with a personality.
They've lost the plot completely if they appoint this bloke.

This guy would create a media circus around the most greyest of clubs. If the board go for this then I think they have gone overboard in trying to please the fans.

Looking at wiki he never lasts more than a season or so anywhere before he is hauled in to a room and summarily dismissed.
We'd be his 18th job in 20 seasons.
1998–1999 Espinho 1999–2000 Freamunde 2000 Vizela 2000–2001 Aves 2001–2002 Leixões 2003–2004 Vitória Setúbal 2004–2005 Belenenses 2006 Braga 2006 Beira-Mar 2007–2008 Vitória Setúbal 2008 Asteras Tripoli 2009 Marítimo 2009–2010 Sporting CP 2011–2012 Beşiktaş 2012 İstanbul BB 2015–2017 Sheffield Wednesday 2017–2018 Swansea City
Oh, and seriously, can anyone imagine Mr. Coates relishing the prospect of Senhor Carlos Augusto Soares da Costa Faria Carvalhal babbling on at him in some Portuguese version of 'Spanglish' at their weekly catch-up calls? He'd lose the will to live!
