Not sure if true, but my friend in Chester has said he heard that any issues with Alonso have been ironed out and he will be the next manager.
Again, take with a pinch, just passing on.
27 Apr 2026 09:08:26
Oh, you tease!
27 Apr 2026 09:08:46
Not sure if true or wishful thinking as he was always a big Alonso fan.
Sorry if not true. Never sure whether I should pass these things on or not.
27 Apr 2026 09:11:43
Thanks SA, I want this to be true. We need a new leader to get behind for next season. Doubters to believers ? C'mon Xabi. ?
27 Apr 2026 09:29:28
It's a rumour site, mate, whether it comes true or not isn't your problem. ta for sharing.
27 Apr 2026 09:57:56
SA, everyone will appreciate it, especially positivity and Alonso. ?
27 Apr 2026 10:15:14
Pass, SA, for God's sake, pass. ?
27 Apr 2026 10:27:32
I don't often get anything, but my mate is adamant with what he's heard. But, as soon as I posted it, I felt bad in case it's not true.
So, apologise if I get anyone's hopes up and it's wrong.
27 Apr 2026 10:51:47
No, brilliant rumour so thanks. Just verr verr tempting.
27 Apr 2026 10:52:32
Don't worry lad, there's nothing more I like than being teased and getting my hopes up. ;)
27 Apr 2026 10:54:19
Keep posting, SA. It's what this place is all about.
27 Apr 2026 11:22:17
Thanks SA...
Keep em coming, mate.
In all honesty, whether you're right or wrong... who cares?
It's a rumors site, so no matter what you post, or don't post, you'll always be rubbing 1 person at least the wrong way... so post away, mate.
A little word of advice if I may...
next time, spice up the story a little. ?
Your friend in Chester, who is a limo driver, just happened to pick up Hughes doppelganger, who was on the phone with a Mr Jippeto, who is a famous football agent and represents a certain ex Real Madrid manager who also played for them.
27 Apr 2026 11:40:18
Ah, sorry, JLC. My mate is Richard Hughes' waxer and, during a particularly vicious waxing, gave up all the info.
?
27 Apr 2026 11:41:47
I have spoken to my friend again and warned him if he's wrong I'll post his name and phone number on here ??.
I wouldn't really.
27 Apr 2026 12:01:33
This would be huge, hopefully it means Edwards/Hughes have had to loosen the reins when it comes to transfers.
27 Apr 2026 12:50:32
Thanks for the info. I'm totally on the fence with this one, feel it could go either way. I also feel like no decision has been made yet, or if it has there are literally about 4 people in the world that know about it. Hopefully your mate in Chester is one of them... Haha.
27 Apr 2026 13:10:56
That's the spirit, SA. ????
Even Cafu got in the spirit of things with his post below regarding his mate, a broker & FSG (Even sounds like a good start of a joke).
27 Apr 2026 13:24:08
You could be right, Chewy, maybe Alonso wants more control over transfers.
27 Apr 2026 13:56:36
Sorry, Jlc, won't let you down again mate. ?
27 Apr 2026 14:59:50
I have all the faith in the world in you SA... ?
27 Apr 2026 18:23:27
A friend in Chester? Maybe it's porky Parry?
