Zag zig Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Doubt Joe McLaren will never tempted be tempted away as chief scout for us that’s for sure. Steve “come join me me at my latest club” Joe “no thanks dad, you’ve had more clubs than Arnold Palmer”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramsbottom Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 I really wish someone would either muzzle or cosh this dhead!!! If ever there was a bloke who loved the sound of his own bullpoo - https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/apr/01/qpr-sack-manager-steve-mcclaren-miserable-run-championship Queens Park Rangers have sacked manager Steve McClaren after a dismal run of form dropped them to 17th in the Championship – but their former manager, Ian Holloway, says he has no sympathy for the man who replaced him at Loftus Road. “He took my job,” Holloway told talkSPORT. “I still had another year left at the club. I’m still being paid by them now. [McClaren] was talking to the chairman while I was in the job saying what he’d do. He hasn’t been able to do that. What goes around comes around.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd argue his signings were pretty good for us, he struggled with some of the dross bought by our other managers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
