Telegraph reckons he's gonna be our new manager


Phil Neville is being lined up by Brighton and Hove Albion as a potential successor to Gus Poyet, with the Championship club understood to be taking steps to appoint their next manager.

Neville has emerged as a leading contender to replace the Uruguayan, who is still the subject of an investigation from his club after he was suspended earlier this month, and the Everton captain is expected to be included on a shortlist if Poyet's departure is confirmed.

Poyet and his assistants, Mauricio Taricco and Charlie Oatway, were all suspended by Brighton in May and a resolution is expected to be agreed next week, with the League Managers’ Association also involved in the inquiry.

Why not? He's very highly rated within the game, would hopefully be able to get a few Everton youngsters in on loan too

zero experience? reckon he'll make a great manager one day, but needs at least a spell coaching.

After all the talk of Redknapp, this is more cheery news. That would be a bit of a coup for Brighton, he's very highly rated within the game.

I'd still prefer Luis Enrique or Oscar but he'd be a good move too, I reckon

would possibly be a good value appointment if also playing for another season ? what with trying to be efficient with the running costs may fit TB & PB bill

We have Just got to be patient with the club now and wait and see now and not believe any rumours until we heard from the club who we have lined up .

I'm not convinced, good coach as been involved with England U20 & U21 for a while now, and seems a smart chap. But massive job for a first timer surely?

Without really knowing anything about him, or his desire or ability to do the job, I will clearly state that this would be the end of the world were it to happen.
