I feel sorry for the likes of Junho who only just started getting used to Scottish, now they've got to get used to Scouse 😂 I’ve always thought this. English is always taught in the most prim and proper tory-on-the-wolds accent possible. How must it feel when you think you’ve got a grasp on it, you summon the bollocks to finally go to England and someone comes up to you saying either ay up duck ast got thee time on yer or a gobful of phlegm followed by Jamie Carragher on helium. It must be absolute hell. My mum used to tell the story of a foreign doctor, she worked with, who was happy that everyone was so friendly but a bit paranoid that when greeted everyone knew he was a 'doc'!

343 with bombing fullbacks and two number 10s apparently so more 3421 Vidigal and Junho behind Wesley then? 😀

I'm as excited at this one as I was about Neil. Well they’re chalk and cheese so you should at least have different reasons for your ambivalence.

Who we going to get after him this time next year? We'll be flying and Everton will poach him Someone will still be moaning about windbreaks in the corners, people will be too fat for the Fanzone and want it widening , calls for a train station at the ground, the UK will score nil points at Eurovision, the Just Eat man still won't be able to find my pad and Wagon Wheels will be the size of Cabbury's buttons....and Biggins will be in panto

Vidigal and Junho behind Wesley then? 😀 Like putting two whippets behind a cement mixer. I think it would work. Two players who want to run at the opposition receiving the ball from a player who can play with his back to goal. Just don’t ask Wes to win headers and it’ll work out.

Hopefully a great appointment.
My concern for any new manager is the inherited squad.
I wouldn't want to keep the majority; so with this in mind I'll give Schumacher 2 full seasons to steady the ship and bring in players capable of pushing us further up the table.

Permission to scream when the 500th mention of "I hope he doesn't turn into Nathan Jones MkII" happens in the next few pages on this thread?

On the topic of songs, Fleetwood supporting brother in law said they sung..
"So heres to you Steven Schumacher, Fleetwood loves you more than you will knowwww … ohhhhh"
Loved as a player there, bit of legend.

Just don’t ask Wes to win headers and it’ll work out. Or run or not to assist a goal for the opponent more regularly than our team. In fact don’t expect him to do anything much other than static trials of strength.

Is this where we speak about who we want as a manager then? Seeing as next manager thread is locked!
I’m still in the Carsley camp! The guy has the work with what he’s given at England. That surely suits us down to the ground?

If/when it finally happens Stoke will have appointed a manager I actually want for the first time in years and one I’m genuinely excited by.
Happy days, hopefully.

They continue to take it well pasoti.co.uk/threads/schuey-to-stoke-city.126090/page-66Ever since Pullis and Shawcross told the world it was an accident that Aaron Ramsey got his leg broke (it remains the most blatant assault I've ever seen on a football pitch), I've despised the club, this is the icing on the cake. We're all gutted as we thought he'd leave us for a bigger better club. Stoke FFS

How thrilling! Glad he comes with a wonderful home record at Plymouth Argyle! That'll make all the difference to the players who've never heard of him..or Plymouth for THAT MATTER! Sorry John Eustace. If you do read anything on here I wasn't enthused with the thought of you coming here but I take it all back! No, I'm not a fairweather fan either but I think I'm done with it all now. They'll never learn. Right, so, I hope he does well in spite of the fact he probably won't last the season but I can't be ar$ed with league one again. Just think it's another epic WRONG decision. Happy to be proved wrong as I always say but I'm fed up with being disappointed time and time again. Commentary's sh!t anyway so I don't have to wean myself off that and I'm far enough away mostly to not hear anything about us unless I want to. Good luck folks!
