    We play 451 tonight, or else!!

    Isabelle - more than a capable deputy- shows who really is in charge in the Houllier household

    Yeah, that's deflated my mood a bit too.

    At least it is encouraging that the likes of Hodgson Houlliers are being asked. I dont have a major issue if we dont get a great manager as long as all available candidates were asked and not just the usual suspects- if they say no then fair enough

    Is Trappatoni happy at Salzburg - would international football appeal to him

    Van Gaal - would he be willing ?

    Deschamps - doubt he would want it and would probably only stay a campaign but by all means ask him

    But it's no good if they are willing and we tell them to wait 5 weeks until we've interviewed all the other (inferior) candidates, which may have happened with Hodgson. If there is a standout candidate then we offer them the job and tell Kendall et al to **** off.

    Just the waiting is killing me look how swift the England manager was picked. FAI should have chosen 3 outstanding candidates or drawing up a list and interviewed them straight away. Hodgson could have done a fine job like Houllier but we'll end up with somebody who hasn't worked in years. The 3 man panel is nonsense in my humble opinion
    With a squad made up of players like Green, McShocking and Kilbad we are going places. Down the gutter.........

    Hard to go wrong when one of the top managers in the world comes straight out and says he wants the job. Look how long Scotland have been without a manager

    True and the England job is appealing but surely we could have a body running football here that show a degree of courage and go out and find a Houllier or a Hodgson themselves. I mean could you imagine the English FA asking the players who they want. Its a joke and another dragged out saga.Why wait for Venables whos huffing and puffing and who wouldn't be my choice at all.

    From the the BBc site discussing the Newcastle vacancy. Hall is answering a question about Keegan and Shearer taking the job.

    But life president and fomer chairman Sir John Hall told 5 Live's Sportsweek programme that they are not right for the role.

    "Alan is the most dedicated professional I have ever met and a great man. But he would want to come in at the right time, and now is probably too early," he said.

    "Kevin has had his time and I don't think he and his family would want to return."

    Hall is a long-time admirer of ex-Liverpool manager Gerard Houllier who now works for the French Football Federation as a technical director after leaving Lyon.

    "Gerard did a fine job at Lyon and I feel he could do it at Newcastle, but I don't think he would leave his new role," he said.

    Report or rumour in the Indo that the FAI were not prepared to pay compo to the FFA.

    Houllier has been heavily backed for the Newcastle job, now at 12/1
    Venables at 33/1

    Houllier to be interviewed this week with FAI prepared to pay compo if that is a factor

    Skysports haved just said that Newcastle owner Ashley has Houllier on a managers shortlist. The FFA have said that there will be no problems with Houllier leaving for whatever he wants to do.

    If Newcastle go for Keegan/Shearer then Gerard might be tempted. I think he'd work wonders for us defensively - we'd be better organised that's for sure.

    Seems there's a head of steam building up with regard to Houllier taking over at Newcastle, maybe assisted by that goon Shearer.

    Houllier is speaking on Thursday and Friday at a coaching conference in Baltimore (US). And he is expected to remain until Saturday at the conference. So the earliest the lads could chat/interview/courtesy call him would be Monday.

    Maybe Joe Lapira could have a word?
