Eddie Howe

[Connor]

"Wayne, I'm really really sorry but you're not playing this week"

"What do you mean I'm not playing ya blert?"

Eddie sobs in a corner, longing for the days where he managed Simon Francis and Jordon Ibe.

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

We get multiple!? Lucky us!

And neither of them named Eddie.

Apparently he's an Evertonian so you would hope he could find a bit of passion for the job if he did get it.

A Toffee from Chesham is certainly odd! But I found the interview. Turns out he changed his mind mid-84/85 FA Cup Final and switched sides during the match!

Honesty if it comes down to Dyche or Howe then just keep Samuel on and let him see out his contract.

So he's a glory hunter

He's hunting in the wrong place if he's interested in the job at Goodison

He'd have probably been around 10 though, to be fair!

 

[sageyefc]

He probably owns a few half and half scarves

 

[chrismpw]

He's done well at Bournemouth, but he doesn't excite me to be honest. I'd be happy to be proven wrong if it happens though.

Just want a team to be proud of.

 

[Saint Domingo]

I would call him the English Martinez but that really is too far.

 

[LEONARD]

Not for me, we need to make a bigger statement of intent.

 

[upthetoffees]

I would call him the English Martinez but that really is too far.

The English Sam Allardyce

 

[Blackwell Livermore]

A rich man's Martinez. Swerve.

 

[kerfuffle]

Absolutely NO!

Been pushing my Eddie Howe agenda for months now. Still pushing it. He's taken Bournemouth up from League Two since his appointment in 2008. Before that he was a player for Bournemouth.

My only concern is that he might only care about Bournemouth and won't show us the same passion. If he's any sort of professional I know that won't happen like.

He’s done a good job, but I just don’t think he’d survive here. The majority of the fans wouldn’t give him any time at all and all that passing it round the back would wind up the boo boys too much. On a serious note though, a lot of his recruitment has been poor IMO but to counter that you could argue that his development of the players he has had for a while has been excellent. I wouldn’t trust him with money though- but then again, I don’t trust anyone at this club witn money anymore.

Still though, it’s far too comfortable for him there. They can (and have) gone 7/8 games without a win and he’s never under any pressure. A run like that here just isn’t acceptable and he’d be facing the sack. You’d expect a few hidings with him in charge as well which would instantly put him on the back foot with the fans.
