And him coming to us might make it clear about the bollox that Yeung has been saying about their finances.

One thing we know about Moyes is that he isn't afraid to take a risk in the market. £15m for Fellaini, Jo on loan. Apart from being a bit dirty, his teams do play good football. So who knows.

They did have a very strong hand shake yesterday. Maybe Kenwright wants to improve their bank balance considering they had to take out a £14m loan to cover the wage rise of Arteta. But it doesn't make sense. He has said he wants to stay at Everton blah blah. So I can't see it being him or Hughes. Pinch of salt might be needed again.

That's what is called squad rotation.

Did you hold your tongue yesterday MM? Or were you a naughty boy again?

I tend to agree with Cracker. All he has done is compiled a list of managers with Prem experience.

IB4TL for the first time Wohoo!

Your silly then.

The difference being that the heroes died at the Alamo. We stood firm and defeated the enemy. More like Rourke's Drift if you ask me. As Michael Caine said, 'Don't throw your bloody spears at me!'

He's changed his mind so many times in the last week POB.

Hamstring tweek.

**** me Colin Murray has just done his best to see if Brown is in the running and he looked quite sheepish. I hope he isn't nothing against him, nut he isn't what we need.

Didn't he go about hoofball towars the end of his stint?

Just to add to that General,

Mourinho, Ancellotti, Sven, Wenger, Hiddink, Ferguson all came to the top flight without previous experience. Is it really that necessary?

Stratgey for building on the strengths sounds like someone for the long haul and Sven isn't really noted for that and Houllier is too old surely. It will be someone younger who has innovative ideas. We'll see in the next two weeks I suppose.

Did anyone wee Randy shake Moyes's hand? They were both in suits and I made comment about Randy giving him an interview there and then.

No he said Prem experience is a plus not a minus i.e. it would help but isn't a deciding factor. Such as do we appoint Dowie with prem experience or Klinnsman without? HMMMMM Tough decision there.

The General also said that the key criteria would be preferred but NOT imperative so I don't think that it rules out someone who hasn't managed in the Prem.

General,

Thanks for the update and I would like you to pass on my thanks to K Mac for taking over in such difficult circumstances and that we can all look forward to appointing a new manager in the near future which which will show our ambition and get us excited again. Also can you thank the players for showing some real guts out there today.

General

Will you be on the interview panel? Maybe you could see how a new would be manager would have taken the guns at Brecourt Manor to see his tactical approach. Be tactful if the interviewee is German though.

I can't make the match today but anyone who is going especially those in the Trinity, keep your eyes peeled for anybody that might be a 'guest'. I'd have thought that anyone being interviewed may well be treated to some of the club's award winning hospitality today.

The one thing that is pleasing is that we have some big names coming forward to take the job on Klinnsman, Koeman, Sven. All we can do is speculate. There may even be a big name being considered who hasn't even been mentioned yet. I suspect that the Klinnsman story may be more linked to his odds with the bookies more than anything else. But I would be more than happy with Klinnsman, Koeman, Sven or Hitzfeld. As long as they are in it for the long haul. And can get us playing good, successful, attacking football and can get us excited again with their signings rather than just signing British 'hod carriers'.

I'd like us to play like Spain!

I want the right man, not just a great player, if all we want is that, you can't get bigger than Maradona !.

You're quite right, he is a fat git nowadays!

Thanks for the reply General. I don't know if Koeman is being considered or not, but he truely seems to want the job and I hope the board can make every would be manager sound like they are willing to run through a brick wall to get the Villa job during their interview. Good luck!
