I’d forgotten all about him, just looked at the Real game, saw him on the Bernabeu touchline, thought “That face looks familiar” then the penny dropped. His Celta Vigo side 1-0 up.
Is it PotG?

Was he 'drink-ing san-gria'?

It's probably just me but it really irritates me that they mention his time with Watford first, like it is somehow more worthwhile...

He may well have the right idea. Get your retaliation in first, given the lifespan of managers/head coaches. Ok he will not be getting hefty pay outs but at least the club hiring will realise there will be no heavy compensation to pay. He did well for us given the quality of the squad he had.

Harsh. Poor and old team that cant expect much else than battle against relegation.

International break came at the wrong time for our Oscar. Celta Vigo played well the other night. Just couldn't put away their chances.
Good luck to him. A class act.
Good luck to him. A class act.
Didnt watch them the other night but seen them a few times this season and they've looked ok and had some really tough fixtures (Sociedad, Atletico, Barcelona, plus away games against Osasuna and Levante). Hardly his fault that Aspas and Nolito are getting a bit old and cant carry their generally poor squad.
Where have I heard tha before . . . . .

...good luck to Mr G Potter and to his next job. He's a lovely bloke. Does an awful lot for charity. Welcome Nigel Adkins. Fresh from his daily countryside walk. All is forgiven Nige! A clean slate. You still got Rickie Lambert's number?

Did you read this bit about the owner at the bottom?
I know it’s wrong but lol.
In June 2015, Marinakis was banned from all football activity after being bailed for £174,000 over five charges.
They were: establishing and directing a criminal organisation, fraud, attempted extortion, bribery with the aim of fixing matches and instigating an explosion endangering human life.
The explosion in question came at the bakery owned by a referee who had been told what the result of an upcoming match should be.
Nobody was injured but the referee, Petros Konstantineas, had his business destroyed.
Marinakis was accused of being leader of a match-fixing ring known as 'The System' dating back to 2011.
Last month 58 people were sentenced to jail terms ranging from 30 months to 10 years for their involvement but Marinakis was not among them.

Maybe he doesn't like the sangria at other clubs.

It says "English is 'foreign' to Oscar"
Oh and something about 'Thanks to the whole @stadedereims family for the great reception. We have a fascinating challenge ahead of us. Eager for the ball to start rolling'
