The UK media can go after his family, so that he quits, so that Germany don't do well... is that what you mean?!

I mean that his experience of years in the UK under constant scrutiny would’ve given him an understanding of the possibility of press intrusion in any other European country.

He's German, he lived and worked in Germany for many years... that would seem to be more relevant?!? Other countries have intrusive media too etc

That’s a plan! Not quite on a level with Russian tech interference though.
Looking on the bright side, Tommy Tickle could be available by then…

Indeed, he specifically called out the German press treatment of Julian Nagelsmann.

Stuart Maynard gone from York. Very strange after a hugely successful promotion last season.

Apparently differences of aspiration, assume he wanted more money to go for another promotion

When you’ve done Kingstonian(?) and Wealdstone, you’re going to keep wanting to ride the wave…

Reckon there is more to this. York’s first match of the season is in 8 days. If there were differences in the direction of the club surely they’d have known by now!

 

[Mr Tree]

Yes, smells like he's been tapped up by someone...

 

[Isleworth_Bee]

Some strong words from the Woking owners and why Defoe walked.

Confirmed

Seems to have gone down well...

 

[Chomp]

Roberto Mancini is back, three years after resigning.

It sounds like he wasn’t even first, second or third choice.

Mamma mia!

Relegation candidates

Eddie Howe leaving Newcastle.

Probably been told Gumierias also being sold

 

[Ioweddie]

I presume the suntan kid will be going too

 

[Ioweddie]

They sold all his players under him. Don't blame him for going. England job ?

 

[TW3Bee]

No thanks.

 

[Les Beeavinu]

Suspect he'll take a break for a while.

Had all summer. Why do it now lol

 

[Ioweddie]

Another sh*te show of a club

 

[Les Beeavinu]

A point of principle over Guimares presumably. Conveniently.

David Ornstein is reporting that a chap called Matthias Jaissle of Al Ahli is set to replace him. He led them to the Asian Champions League with them twice and before that spent some time at Salzburg where he was apparently highly rated as a manager. Also worth nothing that Al Ahli is majority owned by the Saudi investment fund just like Newcastle.

 

[cliffbee]

I also wondered if this has precipitated the decision. Basically once he goes they've lost all the top players they had a couple of years ago.

Will Jaissle bring Ivan Toney with him

 

[BEESRULE]

Saying "we were very competitive" after a 4-1 defeat to Bristol City last night probably didn't go down too well either!

 

[cd1994]

maybe Connor hall as well?

 

[Ioweddie]

If Toney goes there Wissa will be on the bench forever

Chelsea appointed the manager from their sister club last January

And look how well that worked ....

Eddie Howe leaving Newcastle.

What about his boss, Tindall?

 

[Ioweddie]

Still on the sunbed

 

[Bizzy Bee]

What about his boss, Tindall?

In Turkey topping up his tan and getting his teeth veneers redone!

 

[Banana]

Wissa must be jumping for joy

 

[thickobee]

Keith now 9th longest serving manager in the EPL?

Howe's interview last night after getting pumped 4-1 by Bristol City, you could tell he was done

Al-Ahli manager lined up . Bringing Ivan Toney ?

 

[hanworthbee]

Lovely to see it all going Pete Tong up there

 

[Kingston Bee]

Think Howe made correct decision if he walked, on his terms rather than be told he is out of a job at some later point. The writing is on the wall. Basket club situation springs to mind.

 

[JANORAK]

Is it the owners thinking they can do a better job themselves? Or cutting costs all round? What’s happening with SJP2?
Who’ll be left in their midfield? Lee Clark? Rob Lee?

He’ll have another PL job before October, or WHU

Have they lost interest?

I think he will take time out personally, bit like TF, always appeared under pressure to me when interviewed. I dont blame him.

I think Ivan has done two years there and, again I think, two years fulfils tax obligations. Therefore it’s on the cards that he would be happy to return to the UK, financially set up for life.

I thought it was three years?

Doesn't seem the type of person to halve his salary for footballing reasons.
