Any truth to the rumour that Sullivan is only inviting for interview those who gain over 100 votes in this Poll?

And that a suited & booted Slaven Bilic is currently in a cab outside his mansion spending a fortune in 4G frantically pressing 'refresh' on this very page?

I know boss. I suppose whatever question you guys come up with you're going to getting irritating little t*rds like me saying it would be better if it was something else. :)

No it wasn't me boss. There's a lot of us Daves on the planet- we confuse the heck out of everyone.

I had thought of toddling along but not for the first time didn't get my 'arris in gear. Maybe next year. The clip of Walker talking about the Chelsea penalty looked enough on it's own to make the journey worthwhile.

ps- have you voted? If so, who for? :raver:

I plumped for Fran De Boer which is, of course, ****ing irrelevant as he won't be arriving any time soon.

The thing here that really surprised me as I'd completely forgotten, was the fact that Uncle Avram actually came out top in the post-Zola poll.

Shows how much we bloody know...

It's still true though!

I was saving it for the deciding vote, if required.

That's not true.

I suspect Bilic will be the correct choice if the others weren't interested. Really need a manager who wants the job 100% than half-hearted. He's a defender by nature (like SA) but attack minded too, so fingers crossed the entertainment value will be better.

Underwhelming start so far. Makes me wonder if we only beat Arsenal because they were absolute toilet, not because of anything we did.

I think he'll be lucky to still be here at Crimbo.

Yeah but Bilic is soooooo cool, plays geetar, beany hats with suits etc.etc.
Still underwhelmed.
The sweet scent of Humble pie that was airborne following the Arsenal game has gone, the pie is back in the freezer.
Redknapp will be sharpening his clichés in eager anticipation. :(

My brain hurts!

So many people on here were giving it the Spurs fan attitude "this time next year we'll be millionaires" we should have gone with Powell or Rowett. I am open to accept your apologies i
