SSC's next destination...

[Stooper]

Steve Coppell on SS1 now and he was watching Warrington play Rugby yesterday! Not at Barnsley.

Correct.

Shown on the big screen inside Wembley.

[Thaumagurist*]

I don't think Coppell will be managing a team this season. Next season, maybe. What I'd like to see is him managing a team that is bigger than Reading. Not tiddlers like Plymouth and Barnsley.

[Dirk Gently]

Certainly not before Christmas - and I di tend to agree that he'll have the whole of this season off.

[Barry the bird boggler]

Coppell to replace Rafa in due course...

Coppell, Pardew and Wally?

[handbags_harris]

Coppell has stated before that, as a manager, he liked working with a DoF at Reading because it takes away the sh*t that he doesn't like doing (apart from the press), allowing him to focus on the playing side of things. For that reason I can't see Coppell being appointed as a DoF anywhere.

Plus we all know Pardew loved dishing out shit to the Board...

I've lived in hope that when he was ready to return to football, we'd offer him some sort of job, like a mentor to Rodgers or something.

Yeah because that wouldn't undermine Rodgers at all.............

[gazzer, loyal royal]

i don't think we've seen the last of Steve Coppell and Reading FC together

Coppell's next job will be as a manager. He is about as likely to return here as some sort of mentor / DoF for Rodgers, as I am to sprout wings and fly into the sun.

[AthleticoSpizz]

It'll be Southampton/Bournemouth or the like

LOL, Rodgers needs Coppell as a mentor when he has Mourinho?!

No, for once you're right - the ego imbalance would make it impossible.

FWIW I think he will be at Brighton ready for Fulmer

He could do with someone to teach him a bit more about humility and respect., something Mourinho apparently knows nothing about. Rodgers goes on about respect a lot, but he didn't show a great deal in announcing his interest in Smith.

Rodgers and Royalee up a tree doing what they shouldn't be.

LOL, I'd rather have an inspiring winner who tells it as it is as manager rather than some tart who takes the moral high ground all the time to try and please everyone. The real winners in this world often aren't liked because they have more of a competitive edge and it can get people's backs up some of the time, especially those who look inside themselves and realise they're weak. Give me Mourinho or Rodgers over Coppell's nicely nicely wet paper bag approach any day of the week.

It's all about what kind of person you are. I value integrity not boastfulness.

[Royalee]

There's often a thin line between confidence and boastfulness - only some people can see it better than others, the difference is substance and Rodgers and Mourinho have it.
