Apparently the pre-match press conference for the Middlesbrough match has been cancelled. Interesting! Probably Rob Edwards related.

If he's stupid enough to work for Jeff Shi, which one of the following do you think he was enticed with?

A:- A Clipboard.
B:- An iPAD.
C:- A Notebook.

He didn't take training this morning either deep throat, something is afoot. As much as I wouldn't mind Edwards I think he'd be a fool giving up what he's got at boro to come and sacrifice his career to fosun. Of course he could pull off the greatest escape and be any stand hero, but then who would come hunting him?

I'm not sure Abbey I'm actually starting to see why he might be keen. Think about it in REAL terms we have been SO poorly run that he would (ironically) be under MUCH less pressure at our place than Boro! If Boro don't make the playoffs this year then questions will be asked and his position will be under pressure. If that happens then basically his next job would be further down the Champ table. We on the other hand are already as good as down, so if he can't rescue us he gets to say 'well it was a done deal before I got there' then he may well get to manage us next year in the Champ, where for he would likely have a squad not much worse than Boros currently is.


Essentially I actually suspect that Edwards has come to realise that it's to good a chance to turn down, he could spend the next 2-5 seasons trying to get back to the Prem without success. This way he gets to go back straight away with little to no pressure cause the club in question looks relegated in all but name!
Sadly I think the only people that come off badly will be us fans. I like Edwards and think he'll be a good manager one day. But I fear that the current mess we are in needs a FAR more experienced Prem manager to even stand a chance at survival. I will of course back the man either way, and just hope that I an entirely wrong (for once:) ?

BB - good post other than the squad Wolves will be able to field next year is highly unlikely to be anywhere near as good as the Boro one from this season.

Bully's you make good sense in what you say mate, a lot of considerations must have been made, and of course he's from the area. Latest news suggesting lescott might be joining the staff along with other (unamed) ex players.
