Dougie Freedman now odds on favourite. Now that would surprise me.

The funny thing is, our fan base was crying out for a Director of Football/Head Coach set up and then when we get it they want the 'manager' to start signing his own players again.

Totally agreed.

I wouldn't panic about that. It is a small market and a few quid on him by fools is causing a big odds cut by Skybet to try and attract more fools.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Would there be any fannying about with his appointment?

Is he a Brazilian?

The club are being tight lipped about it....

Exactly £661 has been traded on the market with Betfair, where you can have £40 on Freedman at 2/1 if you're so inclined.

Pleeeaaasse Fosun have a look at their CV before you make a decision !!

It's annoying, at least with the club finding the players the new manager comes in and works with these ones, the recruitment and ideas can stay the same and the manager can be found to fit the players/style, rather than the other way around where you see managers having whole sale changes and massive clear outs of yesteryear.

My issue has been the constant banging of experience and a proven winner by some sections of our fans. Having just taken a look at the league table, I'd say that out of the top half Hughton and Grayson are the only ones that had experience of this league when appointed by their clubs?

Zenga may not have worked but we have started a change as a club, we want to build a sustainable team for the top level, there is no reason to change that plan because it hasn't initially worked, they have looked to change the most easily changed part, in the coach.

I have read elsewhere that Corals have suspended betting on the next Wolves manager. I know nothing about the betting world, so I do not know the relevance of this.

I'm told Vitor Pereira (ex-Porto) will be appointed the next #Wolves boss. No surprise to see Zenga sacked. @OfficialWolves #wwfc

58.57 win percentage overall and has managed Porto, Al-Ahli (as did Zenga?) and Olympiakos. Portuguese, one of Mendes clients? His CV looks better than Dougie Freedman's!

That style of manager doesn't seem to have held watford back though.

 

[Lycan]

Had an interview at Everton after Moyes left according to wiki.

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

A Mendes client by the looks of it and AVB's former assistant. An article from when he was linked to Everton:

[pr0sl0]

Now that looks exactly the profile of manager we should expect from Fosun.

As a side note, Spiers just tweeted that Butti has definitely left the club.

 

[Quirkafleeg]

I wonder if the next manager will be enticed by Dave Edwards fuck me eyes...
