I can't believe that people are seriously considering Tony f**king Pulis.
He's done a great job at Palace, granted. But for f**k sake, his brand of football will never in a million years get us top 4. He'll have us 6th at best, 10th at worst. That's as far as he'll take anyone. He'd be to us what Moyes was to United and for all the same reasons.
F**k me.

well said
hear hear!!!
All it shows you is people's opinion of Sherwood, I'm sure if you did a poll -> Pulis or Sherwood, 90%+ would go Pulis
Btw, most people probably had the same opinion of Harry pre Spurs as you do of Pulis now
Not that I want Pulis ...

There's more than a few people that support the club that dont give a **** about this.
They want to win.
They don't care about style of football or where the money is coming from or how we cheat on the pitch.
That **** Mourinho would be their ideal manager.

Sorry, but that is total nonsense. I feel compelled to smash this one line statement of pure conjecture to pieces with some facts (not that anyone will be interested).
It just annoys me when people pass off nonsensical opinion as fact.
Firstly, having a company in the name of a football club is nothing new in Austria. Current examples:
Red Bull Salzburg
SK Puntigamer (beer) Sturm Graz
SCR Cashpoint (finances) Altach
Trenkwalder Mödling
SV Josko Ried
SV Scholz Grödig
SC Magna Wiener Neustadt
Indeed, Salzburg's greates success (UEFA final vs INTER Milan) came under the name Casino Salzburg. So clubs having a company name in their names is 100% common place and non-controversial. I think only the Vienna clubs - SK Rapid & Austria Wien have been immune to this practice.
The second point I have to make is that Red Bull has MASSIVE connections to Salzburg, and the casual comparisons with Coke and London are nonsense.
Didi Mateschitz (Red Bull founder/owner) is Salzburg born and bred. He has contributed millions and millions to the public in Salzburg. Two quick examples: culturally he has set up "Hangar 7" an free admittance art gallery near the airport for the promotion off local and national Austrian talent, including paintings and sculpture. Secondly, he has bought swathes of land that were earmarked for industrial development, some spots of real beauty around the city, and made them open to the public for hiking, climbing and leisure activities. He is immensely popular with locals and synonamous with the City. So the coca-cola comparison is a complete non starter.
What he did do is impose new club colours. He changed the traditional purple to red and white. Bizarrely he attempted to erase the clubs history too, but this move was blocked by the Austrian FA. Many hardcore supporters stuck with the club, but the changes were too much for many.
The break away supporters formed SV Austria Salzburg, who play in traditional purple: http://www.austria-salzburg.at/
The club are currently top of the Regionalla West and have opened up a lead over second placed Wattens SC (Tirol club). They have a good chance to get into the second tier of Austrian football, but could come up against fallen traditional power club LASK Linz, managed by Karl Daxbacher (who had good successwith Austria Wien before dropping down the leagues to rescue a fallen giant).
I hope I've made it clear why I object to the post: if people are going to criticise things, do it on the basis of evidence and real complaints, not speculation and conjecture that appears to other posters as fact.
Sources: I'm employed by an Austrian Bundesliga football club.
Informative post, cheers
But I think the regulations on this might be different between national associations so although it's common some places it's still not likely here I think.
Source: I think I read/heard that once, and also some twunt like Ashley would have done it by now if he could.
hahaha .. classic ..
This ship sailed when we were being seduced by AVB, My money is on de Boer. In fact I'd go as far to say that if we do go for Martinez it could well be a massive mistake. Not going to happen!

Oh come the **** on. Red Bull gutted the club when they took over, got rid of everyone at the club and tried to erase its history.
Its an absolute disgrace. This isn't a local guy buying his local club, this is one of 5 Clubs (New York Red Bulls, RB Leipzig, Red Bull Brasil and Red Bull Ghana) with a Red Bull in their Name as Red Bull tries to use football to sell fizzy ****.
The only reason I used coca cola above was that they're another drinks manufacturer.

ModricTHFC you and Armchair Expert make good points but what you need to consider is who would win a bout of Turkish wrestling between you?
Stripped to your grundies with a liberal coating of olive oil I reckon you wouldn't last 2 minutes against the full frontal Armchair assault

Colin Calderwood
Precisely. Looking at their weight and physique I would say Armchair wins 9 times out of 10.
The other time they both suffer a stroke after 5 minutes, what with being over 40 and all.
I myself am over 40 but spend my time eating lager by the fistful, thus avoiding these medical inconveniences
