I don't think it's come from the club, more likely Mendes (Mourinho's agent) who fell out with LvG over Falcao and Di Maria. It had also been reported in the Spanish press on Saturday morning. When Utd change the manager they are obliged to make a statement on the NYSE first.


Mick, I'm not a big fan of Mourinho, but he doesn't equal boring negativity. He only has to look at LvG's experience to see that Utd fans won't put up with that type of football in the long term. Who would you have employed? When it comes to top quality managers, the cupboard is bare at the moment. I'm more worried about his whole demeanor and behaviour. I expect an initial charm offensive, then the usual fireworks. Hopefully being at Utd he will rein it in...

I don't know RD - you feel a change was needed so soon


I'd have given LVG another season - what happended to MU's managerial longevity. It seems these negotiations started many months ago - that's hardly fair.


You cant really argue that MU fans don't put up with dull football and then in the same breath appoint Jose - he's success at a cost.


I think people are completely bored with his antics. I hoped MU would always be out of his reach.

mmm. Not sure.


Rangers fans and club are hard to like but blatant assaults on staff/players and fans by sectertarian driven 'nationalism', which is being widely ignored by the media and scottish nationalist establishment . A reminder why the sectarian bigotry of Scottish football should be kept well away from the Premiership to me.

Well, yes that's the point in all the Hibs Love (team not EDF poster :) ); all the nastiness is swept under the carpet

Apart from you two stating the obvious, there is a problem in Scotland, I don't see what your comments have got to do with the match on Saturday.

I prefer to discuss the sport and not the politics. As such it was a great game.


The political problems need to be sorted out in society, like racism in England, before they drop out of football - which tends to represent the worst in society, pretty well. But hey why not talk about the football.

Hibs were by far the better team on Saturday bar twenty odd minutes or so where Rangers showed how well they can play.

Since beating Celtic in the semi's we've struggled to play nearly as well as we know we can.

I think Stubbs outsmarted Warburton with his 5 in midfield.

Rangers need a good few signings this closed season otherwise we could find ourselves mid table pretty easily.


This guy will help start things rolling - like him or not, there is no denying he is a quality player:

And he is our complete cock now. Keeps the head screwed like the last season and he will run amok.

Brendan Rodgers - I couldn't be happier. For me this is a great appointment of a Celtic fan for the Celtic job, with Europe as a priority, and a friend of Mark Warburton, so all set up nicely for the future.


Desmond has finally upped the ante and pulled off a major coup here.


And was interested in Luis Suarez' view on his management ability:


?Brendan is one of the best coaches in Europe and I am not surprised he is looking to get back in to the game because it is a game he loves,? said Suarez


?If it wasn?t for Brendan, then I know I would not be the same player that you see at Barcelona today. Such a big part of my education is down to him and his management.


?Of course he works to make the team stronger but he really works on a one-to-one level with the players.


?He will sit down with each player at the club, and work on where you can improve, where you can exploit opposition, he leaves nothing to chance.


?He is a very intelligent man. If the players listen to his words, they will become better players for sure.


?I wasn?t proven and I had to adapt to the Premier League, which Brendan knew. He knows all about English football and he educated me to become successful.


?I am glad he has taken his time since leaving Liverpool. He should only be looking at the top jobs, with the top clubs, who will be playing Champions League football.?

What about his signings though?


Successes? Can, Sturridge, Coutinho...maybe Origi in time?


Get a load of this though:


Benteke - ?32m

Nathaniel Clyne - ?13m

Joey Gomez - ?6m

Balotelli - ?16m

Alberto Moreno - ?13m

Lazar Markovic - ?20m

Adam Lallana - ?26m

Ricky Lambert - ?5m

Tiago Ilori - ?7m (nope, me neither)

Sakho - ?16m

Borrini - ?10m

Joe Allen - ?17m

Luis Alberto - ?7m

Iago Aspas - ?7m

Simon Mignolet - ?10m (possibly a pass)


Hope he has such a success rate with you lot!!

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
