Pep Guardiola Next Brighton Manager

[joggerjayne]

So it said on the radio that this Pep person is leaving Barcelona, and might come to an English club.

Realistically, after somewhere lovely like Barcelona, he's not not going to go ...

... somewhere ponky like London, or

... somewhere remote like Manchester, or

... somewhere freezing like Merseyside.

There's only one logical conclusion ...

Pep Guardiola is going to be the next Brighton manager.

Yay that!

[WELSHYORKIE]

JJ - the men in the white coats will be calling later, methinks!!

[joggerjayne]

Not at all.

I think he'd choose somewhere sunny and seasidey, with an up and coming squad (near bottom of League One, to near top of Championship, in three years).

Brighton is a natural choice.

[FredPuli43]

Correct, Jayne. He is taking a year or more off, doing nothing. You wouldn't notice the difference from the present.

[joggerjayne]

And the food is nice at the stadium.

Food is important to Spanish people.

[sir.prize]

It would be a queer decision coming to Brighton!

[bibblebub]

it would be just as if he was watching The Flintstones - he'd have a gay old time

[joggerjayne]

Yeah yeah ... boom tish !

Now I have noticed, in the Championship, the visiting fans are a bit more "anti gay", and do a bit of rude chanting.

We didn't used to get that in League One.

Wonder why that happens??

Brighton is very like Barcelona

except for the Ramblas
except for the Sagrada Familia
except for Picasso
except for Montjuic
except for Miro
except for the football team

It does have a sort of Gaixample, I suppose

[joggerjayne]

We have The Lanes, and some guys down on the seafront who do really good paintings.

[jno]

what colour are they doing the railings this year?

[joggerjayne]

We favour a sort of light greeny colour, with a rust and seagull sh1t decoration.

[jno]

mmm, maybe get Chris Ofili in to do it then

Elephant poop?

And we don't think that might ponk a bit ?

[mightyWBA]

JJ..With our manager about to be appointed the latest sacrifical lamb that is the England boss there is only one Albion Mr Guardiola is heading for..

Welcome to West Bromwich Pep :-)

[joggerjayne]

But, with the best will in the world ...

West Bromwich is miles from anywhere.

I think Pep would want to live somewhere more central ... like Sussex.

[joggerjayne]

So who's the WBA manager ???

[mightyWBA]

It's Roy Hodgson until 4 o'clock this afternoon!

[joggerjayne]

Oh, him.

Has he got the England job ??

[jno]

he's going to be mighty peeved if he turns up at the press conference and he hasn't.

[joggerjayne]

Sorry, I've not seen any News today.

I thought Harry Rednapp was still getting the job.
