If Curle has any ambition to manage at a higher level he is better off following his own advice and take Carlisle as far as he can.

He needs a few promotions on his CV and aim for higher bigger clubs than us, and the franchise club. You would also have thought, out of respect too Wimbledon fans, he would not even consider them if approached.

Be surprised if he went for that, but we're going to have to get used to him being linked with every Championship and League 1 vacancy that comes up.

Mk Dons would be a good move for KC, a club with a bit of potential. But obviously its not going to happen.

Totally agree. You'd think he couldn't go there out of respect for Wimbledon!
KC has never had a better chance of promotion & his CV isn't that great on paper. I hope/think he needs two great seasons with us maybe then he could, potentially, go to a good championship club.

Or stick with us and take us all the way to the championship KC...please!!

I doubt he'd be worried by abuse from a tiny fanbase like W'don. This is business.

MK Dons are a bigger club than us in a higher division with a good budget, supportive chairman (Robinson was given an age to get them up and wasn't even sacked when he failed in championship), modern stadium and it's close to London which has to help with player recruitment.

Oh, then there's the double your wages bit!

Dismissed as just a rumour by the club and to be fair he isn't even listed as a possible candidate on Betvictor.

He is however 25/1 to be the next Grimsby manager!!

There's no smoke without fire they say? The story won't be made up, someone will've mentioned his name for it to be run, wether it's an MK 'insider', an agent or an associate. It's how the football press work!

The Club have actually added fuel by making that pointless statement. Keep quiet and maybe it'd pass. With that statement it's like we're inviting approaches...

Know the lad who does them there - they put up a stock list for most manager markets for each division really. Can't take them seriously personally anymore.

1 bet on a manager can propel him to the top of the list. No idea why they have markets for jobs this low down the ladder.

Loss leaders in all honesty at times, gets new accounts opened. Don't take vast sums but get lots of new punters, expect the average stake is under ÂŁ10 if you take out the Grade A Punters. Journalists love quoting odds on this stuff from bookmakers so local papers do a sterling marketing job for Firms really.

It's the mirror, the worst football rumours site ever.
They have Taylor leaving Leeds on a free today when he would cost ÂŁ4M in compensation as an academy product, which is some free transfer

They have turned down bids of ÂŁ5M as far as I am aware, but you maybe right (he will probably be sold in January anyway).
Point stands, he is not a free transfer and the Mirror website is bollocks 99% of the time.
Just sweeps up rumours from other sites a lot of the time.

Believe me, they do! Like I said, you must've heard of a slow news day. MK Dons are without a manager at the moment so are an opportunity to fill column inches on a slow day. Curle's name could easily have cropped up simply for no other reason as Carlisle are doing well.

They'll be aiming a bit higher than Keith Curle, ffs.

This is the 1st half decent job he's done in 4 or 5 management jobs! We were scraping the barrel when we appointed him. Surely his stock hasn't risen that much already... :unsure:
There's only one United!

You don't have to have worked in an industry to know something about it, all it takes is a conversation!

You keep on believing everything the papers print must have an element of truth, the less naive amongst us will believe different.

How does one mention of a football article make you conclude a person believes everything in the press has some truth?!

I think what CCU means is that Curle's name will have been touted to a journalist by an agent - they won't have plucked his name out of mid-air, someone will have gently nudged it in their direction. A lot of agents do it to promote their clients - gives the reporter easy copy, gives their client some good headlines and promotes their name.

I know what he means Merseyside and he's totally wrong. They do sometimes pluck names out of mid-air. There doesn't have to be any name touting to have gone on for them to run a story, it can be much like a conversation folk have on here amongst a paper's journalists. I'm not saying this is the case is this instance but it definitely does happen within papers. The lack of quotes or even mention of sources is normally a bit of a giveaway in this article though!

'They do pluck names' then 'I'm not saying this is the case in this instance', which is what you inferred earlier?! Make your mind up Frank!

Getting quite boring now. Didn't infer that at all, simply used it as an example of how they work. The whole thing was referring to your initial comment that it won't be made up, someone will have mentioned his name, it's how the football press work. This is simply wrong.

I think Frank meant that this is not always the case, rather than this is wrong. Bit you probably know that, just as he knows you don't believe everything written in the papers.

One of my favourite pubs when I worked in London. Especially in the winter with that big open fire. I'm going back to the seventies early eighties mind you

He's briefly mentioned, but they're too busy thinking Jol or Di Matteo are coming...

Will you stop putting his name forward Dan. I know hes closing in on the 10 wins in a row that qualify him for a candlelit Nandos for the two of you but this is getting beyond a joke ;).

He's 80-1 at wotbet, max stake of 50p credited in free bets that must be rolled over 50 times and at odds of 10-1 or above. When you meet these requirements you can withdraw the money following a KYC check.

I think they're gonna be dissapointed. I looked at the list, Not sure who Paul Mitchel is but i cant see any on that list that i could see going there.

Chris Powell wouldn't be a bad appointment but he has a decent job at Derby.

Take a few quid for Mitchell to move there like.

Thought others would be after him really.
