I don't know. I really don't have much faith in the board to appoint someone that can keep us up. Coates in both spells as chairman has only really appointed british managers and there is a lot of shite out there.

It's going to take someone really loving good to get us out of the mess that we're in. No doubt if we do get relegated the media will be full of the usual "careful what you wish for" bollocks but I'm certain if we had kept Hughes we were going down anyway. The tea lady couldn't do much worse than Hughes right now.

Pretty dumb of Conte to let Mourinho get under his skin. And Mou hasn’t even made a wig comment yet.

Conte is a match-fixer with a murderer in his starting 11.

Mourinho is a moaner whose best player likes to dab.

I think we all know which is worse.

I’m hearing BRodgers might be coming back from the wilderness to be reunited with Charlie Adam and (wee) Joe Allen. Amazing if true.

I think he'll leave at some point, but it won't be to go to a team fighting relegation. He's got European football every year, and has a decent chance at setting a consecutive league wins record that will probably stand forever.

Stoke's main target for the manager job is apparently Quique Sanchez Flores. Wouldn't be unhappy with that. Seems like it's come down to him or Martin O'Neill, presumably for the MON effect.

Why wouldn't he be? He finished 13th with a newly promoted Watford side and got to a FA cup semi. That's a pretty good season by any newly promoted clubs standards. Then he got sacked because Watford are weird. It's not like there is a large pool of great managers that would even consider coming to Stoke that are available. The only serious candidate with a good up and coming reputation was Rowett, who signed a new contract with Derby earlier in the week.

I'm well excited.

They want a manage who will “rebuild” the squad. They basically all agreed that they want a manager who doesn’t exist, so they will go with any manager who is a lesser known quantity than Ancellotti.

Have they considered David Moyes?

Seriously though, Ancellotti would be perfect. He can attract big name players and has shown he can manage big egos.

I would have been ecstatic if this was last year, but there were all sorts of rumors and innuendo about his (short) reign at Bayern. Now I have mixed feelings. Hopefully pre-Bayern Ancelotti rocks up and double-teams Mourinho with Conte.
