I suspect Roy Keane may be high on the list. 16/1 decent odds on him. Larsson is very inexperienced but many would choose him.

Mark Hughes or David Moyes would prob not be interested but they are high in the betting for some reason. Apparently they have been close to getting Moyes in the past.


Its a big decision for the club and they need to make a better decision than last time. They have seen that a poor manager makes for a poor team and ruins revenues pdq.

Mick McCarthy is a former Celtic captain - that's why you like him PGC.


Martin O Neill won't go back - he did a fantastic job and second to none over the last 20 years, don't give me that strachan nonsense.

No disrespect to Celtic but I think your best bet Mick Mac is to go for an up and coming Scotsman. Many of those guys in your list would rather spend the season on the TV sofa lecturing us on the art of management than getting their boots dirty north of the border.

Well, we do have a lot of injuries ourselves at the moment too and I'm rather of the opinion that this game is very much a potential banana skin for us. I won't believe that we'll get that 4th spot until the last kick of the season. Though we are playing well and getting some good results at the moment there is still plenty of scope for us to slip up.

It seems Matt that you are right most of the time - except when you throw some money at Wales.....

Of Spurs remaining fixtures I only see them collecting 3 points against Bolton, and 1 at Sunderland.


Sunderland v Tottenham

Tottenham v Arsenal

Tottenham v Chelsea

Man Utd v Tottenham

Tottenham v Bolton

Man City v Tottenham


For Liverpool what I have put in brackets


Liverpool v Sunderland (3)

Birmingham v Liverpool (1)

Liverpool v Fulham (3)

Liverpool v West Ham (3)

Burnley v Liverpool (0)

Liverpool v Chelsea (1)

Hull v Liverpool (0)


Which by my calculations means they will finish on same points as Spurs and it will be decided on goal difference, which based on number of forecast wins and defeats should mean the Reds pip Spurs.


EDITED to say I forgot Spurs last game of season away at Burnley, so that makes Spurs by a margin of 3 points!

    • Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.
    • Yes, but the context is important and the reason.
    • That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in. 
    • TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
