    Could be true. Not as keen on him as I was After reading his book where he doesnt really mention the turmoil at the club during his time and the fans pivitol role in getting us back to the valley.

    Edit: oh, and he was at palace

    The real news is the club has:

    1. Spoken to someone about being General Manager

    2. Spoken to someone who knows English football

    3. Spoken to someone English.

    The big news is that they've named a price and have engaged with a potential buyer

    Oh Henry, it's not actually news is it? It's only a rumour. We all know it's not true until it's on the OS.

    Heard this a little while ago.

    Lennie is a 'football man' and never really gave a stuff about supporters imo.

    Can't see it happening though

    this ..BUT if Lawrence does come back to the Valley it would show that Duchatelet at the very least has learnt that in the ENGLISH football leagues, there needs to be a big ENGLISH influence in the player management set up

    Why would they be considering appointing a director of football whilst putting the club up for sale? It would only make sense if they had decided to stay but change strategy.

    Ah, but this regime doesn't do normal or sensible so it's no good trying to second guess them :wink: .

    Would it be too big a stretch to worry that Dougie will be lined up as the next Manager? :wink:

    That would be a very poor second best for me though Lincs, I just want them gone. The disenfranchisement of the fan base has made any sort of reconciliation virtually impossible.

    There are legs in this. I heard it a few weeks ago too. Riga will be given a fair crack but he's never been known to stick anywhere long. Dougie could come in if Riga leaves or fails badly.

    know what you mean @RedChaser, however, I'm convinced that Duchatelet is determined to hang on to the bitter or (much less likely) sweet end

    If Paul Elliott takes over? Or am I missing something? The Belgium twats are talking to him as well?

    There is a difference between working with a twat and working for a twat (or two).
