Roy Hodgson

[SB]

WTF, SSN reporter was just asked if the West Brom fans will be pleased:

"Yes, he had a torrid time at Liverpool but West Brom fans will remember what he did before. They don't like long ball football so they'll be delighted they're getting a man who likes to play football on the ground"

No way shaggy. That's BS

Totally genuine mate. I'm paraphrasing but that's what the bloke said. It's unreal.

Then he must be visually impaired to say the least. Did he also mention Roy's rule of only ever having one attacking player in the opposition's half at one time (other than corners where we can "cut loose " and have 3-4 )

Mark it in your diaries. It's a shame it's not a home match. Roy doesn't win those in case anyone didn't know !

Great appointment i hope he does a good job for you the liverpool job was hard for him he wasnt given must of a chance at liverpool.Roy will bring you sexy football like he did when he was at Fulham remember there were in UEFA.

Wouldn't be surprised if he saves 'em (just) and ends up getting manager of the year with the papers pouring scorn upon our fickleness at sacking king ****.

It's just about within his capabilities, and well within the depths of our press.

[dww]

I think people are being rather unfair portraying him as a useless manager. Not good enough (nor a good fit) for us but that doesn't mean he is incompetent. I also think that when the pressure is less intense to win games then his teams are more aesthetically pleasing - they do keep it on the deck deep on the pitch. The problem is that his plan is/wasn't progressive/attacking enough for us and so we ended up hoofing it to get the ball forward quicker in an effort to win games (he also wasn't helped by an absence of the sort of wide players he deployed at Fulham).

I don't think West Brom have enough alehouse players to help them win ugly.

[mick the click]

I wonder how much he's paying them?

Sky Bet make West Brom 10/1 to win all three of their upcoming crucial relegation clashes after appointing Roy Hodgson as their new head coach.

The Baggies face a critical run in their battle for Premier League survival with West Ham and Wolves visiting The Hawthorns over the next two weekends before a trip to fellow strugglers Birmingham on March 5.

The fourth-from-bottom side are 10/11 to win their first game since appointing the 63-year-old when West Ham visit on Saturday, while the clash with Wolves, when the former Liverpool boss will be in the dugout for the first time, is available at 11/4 for their first win.

In the online bookermaker's Manager Specials, Hodgson is available at 7/1 to be named manager of the month this season,15/8 to beat Liverpool, 3/1 to rub his face more than four times in one game and 1/2 that he reminds everyone that he has 35 years in football management in his first press conference.

Dont see why this job will be any different to his reigns at Bristol City, us and Blackburn. Cant see him lasting the year.

When are you going to make a new animation video, with Roy and Keysey getting together to celebrate their new jobs?
