ritchieshearercaldow 22,010 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Gerrard’s saying he would be interested in the N’castle job? That’s him away then? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They paid between 3-4m for Lampard though. Same with the 8.8m Leicester paid? What? 8.8m was a 'p in the £' price for a year of their salary? So lets say it was 50p in the £, do you expect me to believe that celtic were paying Rodgers and his staff close to 18m a year??? I would bet that that 8.8m was either the entire remaining amount in their contract, or even above this. You are in cloud cuckoo land mate. You may of course be misusing the term 'p in the £' in some form of way to indicate that it is not intended to represent something way below the listed value. If so, you have made an even bigger mess of your argument than I thought. You've repeatedly misattributed quotes and suggestions to me throughout the thread.

Because you are stating he could just resign and we would get nothing, which flies in the face of just about every other big managerial deal in modern UK football. It is far more likely we would get a compensation fee for him and that he does not just have the option to resign and move for free. graeme_4 and J-Maestro 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are both right and wrong, it all depends on his contract, it might state after x amount of years here, if an epl team comes for him then we let him go with our good wishes, we havent a clue what his contract says Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thermopylae 15,286 Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Although he has certainly made improvements I doubt 1 trophy in 3 years in a pretty poor league would get much interest from the top table Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggy 1,308 Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 I can't see the Newcastle billionaires going for an unproven Gerrard. Abramovich took a risk with Ranieri I think who bombed before he got it right with Mourinho. Man City wrongly stuck with Hughes but went straight for the big hitter in Mancini after sacking Hughes. Conte seems the obvious choice to me. Not even in a job? Hadron Collider 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren’t but the upshot is all the same whether you resign/quit, retire, or sit with three years left to go — you don’t get paid and you can’t sign anywhere for three years.
