Martin Jol / Fulham

[Ted Hughes]

Staying at Ajax apparently. Wonder if uncle Les will have a go?

Considering Les's lack of linkage to other clubs this summer, im starting to think he's still on our pay roll.

Isn't he on record as saying that he wanted to return to London for family reasons?

I agree in lots of ways with the sentiments re leaving Ajax.....it's a shame that such a massive club can't keep hold of a decent manager

Also agree re the likes of Hughes, Curbishley etc and the fact that they probably wouldn't have the balls to do a McLaren

However, quite glad to see Tony Soprano back in the PL.....I think he's a very likeable guy and I thought the Yid Army treated him pretty bloody shabbily

I don't.
He nearly got them relegated the season before he was sacked, they gave him another chance, and when he was sacked they were in the relegation zone again. Fully justified sacking IMO. Especially with the squad he had at his disposal. Ramos came in and won them a cup straight away, although still struggled in the league, but still a lot better than Jol would have done.
People have fond memories of Jol as he's a nice guy. Well nice guys finish last.

The season before he was sacked, he took them to 5th place, actually. Higher than either of our teams have been recently (at season's end).

And, so far as I know, the 'Y Army' sang his name loud and clear on the evening he was shamefully confirmed as losing his job (whilst he was in the home dressing room, trying to talk up his team's chances of winning a UEFA cup tie). My cousin's a Spud. Jol remains well-respected amongst their support.
