I find it concerning we've interviewed Patrick Viera and Scott Parker. They're both clueless and even entertaining the thought is a sign of ignorance by whoever the fuck is coming up with these names.
Farke & Parker both have 2 promotions under their belts. Parker has the better record (ppg). We question Parkers ability to handle pressure - and yes it would be a different level here compared to Bournemouth & Fulham. But to say he’s clueless is a bit of a stretch. I’d rather take him than Corberan for example.
I think Vieira is highly rated within the game. He will have been recommended by someone.
Viera had it on a plate at Palace but needed a geriatric owl to come mop up his piss. Was shite at Nice too. Parker would be gone 2 months into a Prem season, so might aswel hire his replacement now.
Dunno, just cba with either. Want someone who can get us up and keep us there. Build summat.
We had that and pissed it away.
I think we’d all like a second coming but let’s be honest, it’s a long shot.
Burnley pissed it last year. Is Kompany a great coach? Don’t know yet. I do know they played good football. But a lot of teams have evolved in our abscence. And I do think the Championship isn’t as strong as when we were last in it. Outside of relegated sides, the money just isn’t there.

Kinnear a major part of the process isn’t he. I rest my case your honour!!
Yup. I've read we're looking at particular criteria, such as Prem experience. Looking at those names it seems he's made a list of obtainable ex-Prem managers willing to come to the Champ (aka Prem failures).
I rely on criteria when I don't know what I'm fucking doing. If I'm making a decision about a topic I'm passionate about I go with instinct and don't need to do a 'filter search'. Criteria is fine to refer to, to help keep focus, but if it's led to interviewing those 2 twats it's clearly being relied on in the absence of knowledge/judgment.
Kinnear is just a corporate arse licker. Knows fuck all about football, just brown-noses the right people. He's so fake, I've met him. Utterly full of shit.
Worrying as I see him as an administrator rather than someone with a great insight into the game. And he is also a photofit stereotype for someone who should be on a register! I imagine it being Farke and thinking that’s a bit wank. Days of attracting a big name are long gone though sadly.

Got to remember the sheer fact Bielsa came to us when he did was because he’s a proper football romantic.
Very few of those if not unique.

Good arras sir. Chances are whoever we get is for this season and a bigger name if/when promoted.
Farke best option (from the names leaked), plays good footy and had a shite budget in Prem. Though another who wasn't great in his last job, though from what I've read he didn't take them backwards, just didn't have the desired impact.

Viera though? Madness.

He finished about where they were expected I'd say in the Bundesliga.
