There's only one thing blowing smoke on this thread.

So true. I still don't understand why people entertain it if it winds them up so much though. I like a bit of banter with him (mostly just posting links to show he's a google addict) but if it annoyed me why would I bother feeding it? He clearly get's something from posting something annoying then calling it a day when he's got what he wants. If it annoys you, ignore it.

Credit where its due though, he's never offensive and does add value to a thread even if it is from google or Martin Keown.

So how did everyone's bets do?

Unbelievably over the past 4 weeks I've had bets on Mancini, Ranieri (both very early doors!), dyche and pellegrino so it appears the only one I missed was FDB!!

It's been so long I'm beyond caring about my bets now though and will be extremely happy when FDB is finally announced at 2pm today, hopefully with the new sponsor and away kit...oh and Sakho would be nice!!!!

I had a fiver on Dyche at 18/1. When he was 1/9 with one bookmaker I was counting my money. Just goes to show you the bookmakers don't know any more than we do. Still, it was only £95 and I would rather we appointed de Boer anyway.

I got 25/1 on FDB but only put on £2 (i bet on 5 random ones before we were linked to any). Seems I only win bets when I've got next to nothing on it but always nice to beat the bookies!

Ah Think I have it! the white smoke coming out at Selhurst isn't to announce a new manager. It's from the candles on Puncheon's cake....Happy Birthday Punch!

Thankfully I only lost pennies on pellies.

So I shall concentrate on the 'New Manager' and NOT respond to any 'Anti-Willo' hogwash on here.
Doesn't sound like an 'Attention seeker' does it ?


Of for the love of God..SHUT UP.

If you were really interested in being 'humble' and 'self depricating' you'd do well to follow your own advice of not turning yet another thread into a Willo thread with your narcissistic tendancies.

If you're REALLY interested in returning to the subject matter.. Then do not reply to this.. or any other remarks made about you, as you undermine yourself and your words by doing so.

Announcement at 2pm. Despite a frustrating wait. I sure if frank de Boer given time. He can give us the stability, we need. Exciting times ahead.

I know the press feel that Dyche is underrated and that he himself feels that if he had a foreign sounding name he'd be in far higher demand.

So if that's the case.. Why didn't he seemingly show more interest in the post then it appears??

Or do we think that he was never really being considered anyway?

Only by the bookies and the media it would seem. Isn't "Dyche" a "foreign sounding name"?

No - He managed 'Inter Milan' but was sacked after 85 days.

He also got a drugs ban which, was subsequently overturned ....according to Wiki.

I suspect, ironically, it's Dutch in origin.

Same here - had £3.50 left in my account but 25/1 is not to be sniffed at

So how long before we signed any players then? Going on what's been written already I can't see the signing 21 to 24 year olds will be as protracted as signing any already established players.
