Rob Edwards

[WV10Wolf]

I can’t believe some people are convincing themselves Rob Edwards is the answer. What on earth is going on inside this club…

If he’s the answer god knows what the question is.

 

[Bill S Preston Esq.]

It clearly says not the managers role…But the new set up. Doesn’t stop idiots betting on him though.

Or getting all flustered about appointing him as head coach when it's been made clear that's not what he's interviewed for.

 

[SteveBullsKnee]

Edwards is now second favourite on Sky Bet at 4/1, behind Martins.

So I guess that makes him de facto favourite.

Some of you will need to get down A&E early, before the heart attacks start.

(No, he won't get the HC job, come on, get real)

Just for the craic I’d like him to get it and watch folk on here losing their mind

 

[KnowNuttin]

I've never met Rob Edwards, so can't comment on his character, but it seems too early in his managerial career to be thrust into a job like this. He is apparently held in high regard at the club due to his time as a player and U23 coach.

On a side note, I have one stand out memory of him. I think we were getting spanked by Man Utd at Molineux in the FA Cup and Rooney was showboating on the touchline with his hands on his hips giving it the big un. Then Rob Edwards came from nowhere and completely wiped him out much to the delight of the South Bank.. I always quite liked him after that.

Too late, mate, some have already lost it.

 

[Bill S Preston Esq.]

Keen and Percy both say they have.

I missed that. Other sources saying it's for a coaching role. I don't want him in as HC, but am open to another role.

 

[Ercall Wolves]

I guess you missed 'not' out, Ercall?!

I disagree, he's a good coach on the evidence I've seen at U23 and AFC TU, though I fully accept it's a hell of a jump up to PL. Also accepting Jos's point that a new HC (not Edwards) would probably want to choose his own assistants.

I simply don't believe RE is in line for the head coach job, irrespective of what any articles say.

Correct on the first line I’ve now amended that
My experience of him as interim head coach for us was not good and I suspect Watford fans may say the same

 

[inaglasshouse]

Is Dave coming back too?

That’s clever

Id love it for the relegation pay out.

Dream team

 

[SteveBullsKnee]

Did you go halves with Rosehill

 

[SteveBullsKnee]

That’s clever

It’s a joke, relax

 

[Agent Cooper]

Does this mean they are considering Davis and/or Collins for the foreseeable with Edwards back filling in his old role as U23s boss? Wouldn't want Edwards and his ego anywhere near the 1st team. Wasn't it alledged he undermined Zenga then when he got the caretaker role was just as bad, if not worse?

 

[Supadavewolf]

So:
Lopetegui - sacked, no good
Martins - walkover league, no good
Nuno - second time around, no good
Edwards - inexperienced, no good
AVB - not motivated, no good
Svensson - too Scandinavian, no good
Postecoglou - won't be able to spell his name, no good
Dyche - too Burnley-ish, no good

That about it?

 

[Wolf 82]

I missed that. Other sources saying it's for a coaching role. I don't want him in as HC, but am open to another role.

The article says both, the headline says manager to get clicks.. but we all know he isn’t a realistic candidate for that long term.. still, let’s riot.

 

[Supadavewolf]

I've never been away, my friend

[S G Wolves]

Please Jeff do a second interview of Edwards and leak it...

The meltdown here will be hilarious.

 

[woop woop barmy army]

Rather have Roy Keane he will at least throw some tea cups around

 

[sc91]

Why would I share a good winnings.

 

[Bilston paul]

They will be interviewing ward and Johnson next.

From the express and star

Percy’s article also mentions a coaching role.

That should be left to the new manager not Shi or sellars

 

[GateWolf]

So is the plan here for Steve Davis and James Collins to carry on until the WC break and for Rob Edwards to take on the Under 21’s in their place ?

 

[Alex Rae The Substitute]

To some extent I’d find it hilarious if we appointed him. It would be so Wolves to throw away the best 4-5 years many of us have seen at Wolves like this in the space of 18 months.

No one on here has a clue mate. Maybe the other way around?.. but it’s all guesswork

 

[NottsWolves]

As I’ve said before depends on the role and whether one of the candidates has expressed an interest in having someone familiar with the club. Mike Stowell is still at Leicester and worked under different managers.

Thing is we don’t know what their plans are, but it hasn’t stopped people going crazy.

 

[YouGottaRaulWithIt]

Don't see why. Besides, we don't have a manager.

Footage of how Rob Edwards secured the role of tea lady and put Doris out of work:

 

[Adrian_Monk]

Remember him leaving out Saiss, our best midfielder, out when he was caretaker. Just picked the 'British lads'.

If he is even in contention we are absolutely ****ed

 

[SWest Wolf]

My thoughts exactly

 

[Ercall Wolves]

Remember him continuing to leave Saiss, our best midfielder, out when he was caretaker. Just picked the 'British lads'.

If he is even in contention we are absolutely ****ed

Well and truly

 

[SteveBullsKnee]

“Continuing” to leave Saiss out is a bit of a stretch, he was only in charge for 2 games

Continuing as in from Lambert, despite fans desperate for changes

They don’t know what their plans are from the looks of things.

Most caretakers don’t change things in fairness, just steer the ship until the new captain arrives.

Actually wasn’t he before Lambert? I thought he replaced Zenga as caretaker then lambert got the gig until the summer then Nuno came in

 

[wolfslair]

Is Dave coming back too?

We would score some amazing goals from late runs into the box, the true trademark of Dangerous!!!

People take the **** out of him, but we are screaming out for a midfielder who could do what he actually did very well and get the kind of goals he popped up with from using his head and feet. A few sharp finishes too if memory isn’t too mistaken.

 

[oldgoldheart]

Coach maybe. Manager no ****ing way

 

[SuperGran]

He was pre lambert
