Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
I find myself feeling a bit sorry for AVB. Spurs and Toon have identical records at 8-3-5 after 16 matches, but Pardew is not in any danger (at least at the moment) while AVB is highly likely to be gone before the transfer window opens.
He's a victim of expectations.

Re: The Toon Army / EPL thread
Capello may not be a bad choice. I mean his club record is solid and actually he was excellent with England until they got to the World Cup.
My preference is Michael Laudrup but that is because we missed the boat on Martinez who they should have got originally.
Either way it's time Dawson was moved on and Paulinho needs a kick up the arse. He is meant to be a "Box to Box" midfielder. Also Akkotto never should have been sent out to QPR, we have played most of the season with out a left back.

I agree with Mr weeze that Malky's days are numbered. Rumours around the club are that a Turkish manager is lined up for the job at the beginning of January.
Who the hell would want to manage them? Whoever takes on the Spurs job is going to have as much expectation as Moyes get from Utd fans, though the expectation is justified in Utd's case as they have a lot of recent history they'd like to continue.

Its a no brainer innit.
Unless be really pissed off his England assistant Franco Baldini who is now Technical Director at White Hart Lane. Spurs are wealthy enough to attract a mercenary like Capello.
