@ExeterDave the great Fred Binney played for both of our clubs. The best person I ever employed and worked alongside arrived with a first from Exeter University. I like the ground development seen on the telly since my last visit to the proper St James’ Park, what is the away capacity? My understanding is that true Devonians pronounce it ‘Egg-zet-ur’, unlike our terrible Grockle mispronounciation. Looking forward to us playing each other next season, and whatever the management situation I hope you do well.
That's how some of the more thicker-accented say it. I say Exe-eter, but then I don't have a Devonshire accent, I'm Queen's English.
Yeah, but is it jam or cream first on the scones?
I actually do it the Cornish way (with jam first), but only because I find it easier. That's also the way the Queen has it apparently. I'm basically a rubbish Devonian.
if it is Beale we might as well have kept JJ..as he has more experience in division 1
Been coaching at a higher level and no disrespect to Jackson, but has a bigger reputation as I understand it among the football community. I would say it’s a step up from Jackson if we land him.
The whole set up and whether or not he gets final say on recruitment will be key. Hopefully we can have one or two promising young Villa players as well on loan, and he may be able to expand our network of available signings through having played against other Premier League teams.
I think Gallen’s last few signings haven’t been that good and his network may be a little bit stretched. Having Beale could really change the approach - hopefully
I’m also hoping he’ll come in and look at what we’ve got and the likes of Jayisemi and Gilbey will see less game time next season. I would imagine had Jackson stayed he would’ve persisted with both of them
I am still hoping that it will be Warburton in light of his previous connections with the recent CAFC appointments of Da Souza and Dangerfield.
Possibly clutching at straws, but if Warburton is still contracted to QPR, even if they were not going to renew his contract, could CAFC risk having to pay compensation to QPR if anything were to be agreed/ announced prior to expiry of his contract with QPR? If Warburton is indeed CAFC’s choice, could this potentially explain the current waiting game?

Short answer is no. Look at Bolton who already announced the signing of Iredale prior to the official expiry of his contract with Cambridge. I don't see any reason why the rules would be different for managers.
Matt Taylor doing punditry on leave 1 play off tonight, just saying……
League 1 playoffs have finished
Shit my Sunderland supporting mate thought it finishes Saturday, better tell him and get him to cancel his flight to Spain.
I would, the final is being held at Wembley.
Not the final obviously. Tell me what is a leave 1 playoff. You didn't bother to correct that, just mine as usual.
I didn't reply to Mendonca. In fact, I didn't reply and correct you either, despite the fact you gave me a golden opportunity by (as usual) making a totally incorrect statement.

Just need Warburton to complete the set.

For that lyrical reason alone, the full force of KiwiValley's influence goes behind the appointment of Warburton .
