Well that is a twist. Not sure about that - could be a Howe mk2 appointment - ie exciting but with the potential to go tits up I the same way. (I mean all appointments have the potential to go sour but I suspect the element of gamble is different if you went for someone say with experience.

If it were a toss up between Norwegian and Kompany I might tip towards Kompany - he knows the Emglish game and has contacts plus has respect

I wonder if we got Kompany if we might get some of the City kids on loan

Wowzers. I took that as if he’d take the job if it was offered to him.

Yeah it could be just annoyed about the link again but does sound a bit like "not going to deny it so let's shut it down right now"

Didn't realise he spent a few months over here, in London and Manchester.

Yes I hope so. I think this has slightly more credit than just a random poster on Twitter though. From his account it appears he is some kind of agent.

These markets are not good indicators. Bloke reads Twitter / UTC, puts a fiver on, market will change.

I'm not reading anything into these markets. If a candidate suddenly goes 1/10 you know it is a done deal. I'll never forget how I felt when Brian Laws became very very short priced.

Exactly, not a lot unfortunately to go off, really dislike periods when we don't have a manager. Searching social media for scraps of unreliable information.
