Just had lunch with a client for first time. An old boy, turns out minted and knows people in football. A Fulham supporter is very good friends with someone on Fulham board who is on their 'appointment committee.' That committee deals with managers and presumably other high up employees there. Apparently they spoke to Tony Pulis this season who told them thanks but no thanks he was going to QPR. Timing wise this would be before our upturn in home form this season so conceivably we could have been sounding out 'Arry replacements.
He had met Pulis shortly before this while on holiday and approached him and had a chat. He said Pulis very nice guy but had asked him all sorts of questions about Fulham when he learned of his connection. Was there with his assistant Dave Kemp. Think there was some international involving EIRE and they were there to watch. His assumption having then found out about Fulham approaching him was he was sounding him out about what he knew about the Fools.
I appreciate usual type of nonsense you have on here of someone hearing from hearing from someone else. No reason to doubt this guy, just very old fashioned bloke as opposed to wind up merchant, so believe he was saying what he knew and was genuine. How accurate the information he got I don't know but thought would pass on. If true may show that maybe 'Arry isn't as Teflon coated as some of us think and, if so, maybe some truth in most recent rumours?
