    I look at it this way lawell isn’t majority shareholder he’s an employee really who’s running club for owner .... Desmond who is heir apparent will have a more emotional invested interest

    Absolutely same feeling as Brendan, professionalism would return to the club in a heart beat. Did you watch the video?


    I wasn’t fully convinced on him when the rumours first started, but after watching that video etc I’m more convinced that he is a good fit for us.

    His Transfer record is questionable however history suggests Brendan was and also as a club we aren’t world beaters either

    Refusing to get my hopes up for Howe, he'd be class. Can't think of anyone else available who'd be better.

    Next appointment is huge, either a statement of attack or a statement of acceptance

    Does he follow football, though? If he doesn't, then he won't make best football-related decisions (transfers, staff acquisitions, etc.). I again state my belief that the CEO position should be chosen amongst fans with finance/book keeping qualifications.

    I actually feel Howe could easily surpass what BR achieved with us.

    Firstly he's definitely more humble (none of that names in envelope BS from inside LFC)
    Secondly he actually owns his own teeth (no vineers here)
    Thirdly he's actually won more trophies/promotion before joining us.

    Desmond just need to build a sandy beach somewhere, whack up the global warming and hey presto the deal is as good as done

    Dont get the hype about Howie, i think people over estimate what he did at Bournemouth because their a tiny club, but they were been financed by a Russian oligarch and had an absolutely huge budget, way bigger than some big clubs like Newcastle and they still finished bittom half every year. Fair enough he did get them promoted but they did get a fine after from the efl for breaching ffp rules. His record in transfer market is atrocious, 26M on lerma, crazy. Hopefully the board will think outside the box on maybe a Jardim or a Rebrov, coaches who have actually won things.

    Exactly. Huns dropping points today - Giving Neil Lennon another game will no doubt lead to us not capitalising on the opportunity to try and claw back some sort of challenge

    Again I urge everyone to watch this video of Eddie Howe, he’s the kind of manager who can improve players and ultimately change the culture of the club again. Tactically he sounds all over it.

    After watching that video of Howe, I'm completely sold on the idea of him being our manager. Has his head screwed on and knows his stuff.

    Did not know that. Personally, I wouldn't mind Howe if he:
    1) analyses and adapts to the opposition
    2) uses substitutions on time
    3) rotates fatigued players out of the first XI
    4) gives academy players a chance

    Suppose we'll find out soon enough how much substance the Howe rumour has.
