Big guy that can handle Duffy. Duffy is definately my main worry. Link to post Share on other sites
FamilyBoro 140 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 It's being reported that Tony Pulis turned down the Cardiff job as he is hopeful of getting either the job at Southampton or West Ham. Apparently he does not want to manage in the Championship anymore and sees himself at Premier league level. Tbf he is probably correct in reflecting on what we have said previously, he is much better at setting teams up not to lose (PL survival) than to win games (Championship promotion). 1 Link to post Share on other sites
OldManGravz 1,311 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Leeds have opened a development centre for youngsters in Middlesbrough, hoping to find some quality. There's also an interesting discussion going on in the comments on the Gazette live Facebook page, apparently Boro have gotten rid of a lot of their scouts and said in a letter to them that they are moving in a "different direction". Given our current situation, I think we should be casting our net far and wide for bargains, not limiting ourselves with smaller numbers of scouts. There are people also saying that other teams watch the TJFA but Boro don't even have a scout at games, which could obviously be wrong but you do wonder why Leeds would be setting up a development centre if we were snapping up all the best young talent in the area.

I would be staggered if he ended up at West Ham. Even Southampton seems a stretch, given their particular way of doing things but I suppose they could get so desperate that they forget about all of that. Link to post Share on other sites
