Belgian papers reporting that Scott Parker will be named new manager of Club Brugge tomorrow, we could be meeting him in the Champions League soon.

Apparently he's into jazz, and wants to be near the Ghent jazz scene.

Unfortunately Gent Jazz has gone bankrupt this year, partly because Sting had to be cancelled twice.
Meanwhile, in other news, the Cabbage White Butterfly population has gone into steep decline due to the use of pesticides........................... .................

Apparently ex Huddersfield David Wagner is the favourite there which does seem like a very Norwich appointment.

I do think Parker is very limited as a coach/manager at the moment but fair play to him moving abroad, can only help his development.
Well if Delia and her cronies had a straight choice between the two l know which one l would choose.

David Wagner did a fantastic job at Huddersfield.

Always felt like Parker is hugely overrated by the media as a manager. Twice got teams promoted from the Championship but in both cases it was with squads who should have smashed that league, and he only just got them up (via the play offs in Fulham's case despite chucking money around like £10m for Knockaert). His little sad face whenever his team have taken another beating must be one of the most demotivating things in football, and he always blames everything but himself when it goes wrong: his players, pitches, the weather, the officials. He gets properly found out every time he's in the Premier League, and usually ends up getting fired.

Us Fulham felt so sorry for our great hero (Oi Oi Oi) Dennis Odoi who'd returned to Club Brugges at the end of last season, having enjoyed then endured Scott Parker's brand of football. Club Brugges were flying high, Dennis was their fans' hero and then SP arrived and it went to shit.
