Will lose all games (maybe draw a couple) in charge and be sacked after 15 or so. Out of work. Should have stayed at Boro with a patient owner and an upwards trajectory and backed his ability to take them up.5 -
They weren't going to go up though. The data showed they were a mid table team massively over performing. They would have finished outside the play offs and his reputation tanks. Now he's coming in to fix a sinking ship that isn't his fault and will get another top half Championship gig next time outAthletico Charlton said:siblers said:Wonder how much is Edwards regretting his decision

Under a different manager. The squad is there, the method wasn't. If Boro go up this season that won't be down to Rob Edwards. He won 3 out of his last 10 league matches at Boro, that isn't promotion formkillerandflash said:

Police said an incident took place during the early hours of Saturday in the West End.

He cannot be named for legal reasons.
Police told BBC Sport they were called to the incident at 00:47 GMT on Saturday following reports of an assault.
The alleged victim was taken to hospital with injuries, which police said were not believed to be life-changing or life-threatening.

Edwards probably won't be sacked even if they go down. He had two and a half years left at Middlesbrough at £1m per annum so approximately £2.5m worth to him. He's reputed to be on £1.5m per annum for a contract of three and a half years at Wolves so that's £5.25m (plus bonuses if they stay up which they won't). So double the money locked in and an extra £1.5m in his hand. That's quite a lot going into the pension pot without ever having to work again which, given his reputation, he will.Athletico Charlton said:siblers said:Wonder how much is Edwards regretting his decision

Parkinson at Wrexham and Mckenna at Ipswich are the only Championship managers to have been at a club for three years and Mousinho at Portsmouth is the only one to have served two years, with no less than 17 clubs having changed manager in the last year, so the chances are that he would have left before the end of his contract at Middlesbrough anyway.
The main benefit to him, though, is that he was born half an hour away from Wolverhampton in Telford, spent five years playing at Villa as a player and the same again at Wolves as well as coaching at Wolves and managing at Telford. He retained the family home in the Midlands and did not buy a house in Middlesbrough where he lived on-site at the club's Rockliffe Park training ground. That doesn't smack of someone committed to a long-term existence in the north east.

I can understand him wanting live back home with his family, what feels off is taking the Boro job in the first place (and agreeing a 3 year contract) if that was a big issue and he hadn't much intention of doing it for that time.Athletico Charlton said:siblers said:Wonder how much is Edwards regretting his decision

Hold off for a job closer to home - there's plenty closer, sure a Derby, Stoke or whatever would have come up (or indeed, Wolves looking for a cheap option as they did first with O'Neil).
Not like there's not a high turnover rate of managers.0 -

Arsenal in late season form, letting their opponent score three times1

Just watching P*****e v Man City, (hoping City give them a long overdue shoeing), and once again, I notice they still haven’t done anything about the players tunnel at Selhurst. The away team still have to come from what looks like a dirty great shipping container and walk around the tunnel. It’s a fucking non league set up in the premier league.
It really isn’t that important, but it’s just another item on the list of things that make the Stripey twats so fucking lame. The sooner they fall from grace the better. It will happen, it just needs to happen soon.3 -

Great Derby game between Sunderland and NewcastleNaturally delighted for Sunderland0

Best derby in England I reckon, cause they genuinely fucking hate each other5

A very good friend of mine who is a Sunderland fan - (and has an enormous amount of respect for Charlton, by the way, despite us breaking his heart twice at Wembley!) - has an FTM tattoo on his chest. Apparently, this is not rare up there at all.Rothko said:Best derby in England I reckon, cause they genuinely fucking hate each other

Spent 18 months living in Seaburn Sunderland in my teenage years. It’s literally life and death up there. Never known anything like it0

Forest beating Spurs 3-0. It often happens that the smaller sides struggle to cope with playing Sunday PL games straight after midweek European football
