A managerial palindrome

[TheRamblingGer]

Afternoon fellow bears.

While writing my latest article I couldn't help but notice the managerial farce they're going through is almost a perfect palindrome when compared with ours.

Difference is they haven't even appointed their Pedro yet.

Its great being on this side of it and enjoying the nonsense but we need to make sure we keep our eye on the ball unlike them.

Trading Places

Our Past On the 11th March 2017 Pedro Caixinha was appointed manager of Rangers. An appointment that left most of us scratching our heads....

Level with us, do you know the meaning of that word?

 

[Frankie and Ronnie]

Who might be on their radar?

 

[Wugs]

Yes

 

[Johnny Yen]

Palindrome?

Do you mean analogy?

 

[Sancus]

They got rid of Lennon, he was a right tit.

 

[Hap Hapablap]

Who might be on their radar?

Who knows, but irs certainly turning into one of the great sagas.

Has Robert Trebor been linked yet?

Palindrome?

Do you mean analogy?

I think he means conundrum.

 

[Jorg]

i get the similarities

"almost a perfect palindrome" it is not

 

[Davie86]

Enjoyed that , great wee read. Although must admit no idea what palindrome meant until I looked it up.

 

[JorgAlbertz]

OP made a tit of it.

 

[Hap Hapablap]

Is the OP the "Miscellaneous" guy?

 

[RFCStu]

Dammit I'm mad!!

 

[Ciro]

Wait till they appoint Mick McCarthy. He’s the Palindrome heading their way.

 

[Kingging]

Level with us, do you know the meaning of that word?

Of course he does. Palindrome was the talking lantern on Glen Michael's Cavalcade

 

[Steeps the Teddy Bear]

Thought Glen Michael had applied for the shellick job .

 

[Khal Drogo]

Should the OP be banned for this error?

A poll should follow

Rise to vote sir

 

[Johnny Yen]

I think he means conundrum.

I did think that, conundrum doesn’t really make sense in the context he’s talking about, analogy works better

 

[Johnny Yen]

Should the OP be banned for this error?

A poll should follow

Rise to vote sir

Very good.

 

[VMS]

My birth date is one useless piece of information to contribute to thread

 

[Angus Og]

Pedro Caixinha. Ah, nixi acordep.

 

[orjan_persson]

I think the word you're looking for is paedodome, mate.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

The OP is being perfectly cromulent.

[Paisleybear30]

I'm going to assume the word is parallel?
An example of a footballing palindrome is the World Cup Winners:
1970 Brazil
1974 West Germany
1978 Argentina
1982 Italy
1986 Argentina
1990 West Germany
1994 Brazil

Had England won it in 1998 it would have extended to being true for 1962 - 2002

 

[Virgil Hilts]

Thought Glen Michael had applied for the shellick job .

He’s a bit rusty.

 

[Cooper 11]

They got rid of Lennon, he was a right tit.

To be fair, he has a left one too

 

[Blue seventy two]

I think he means conundrum.

He's probably been out in his racecar.

 

[Al Bundy]

A dog! A panic in a pagoda

Yes.

Dodgy manager nobody has heard of
Try to bring in a more household name manager then get embarrassed when he turns us down
Try to bring in a more household name manager then get embarrassed when he turns them down
Dodgy manager nobody has heard of

 

[Elaine]

Mark Bosnich has just said he’s possibly another Arsene Wenger.

I’m not laughing honestly

 

[TheRamblingGer]

I guess its just me but I thought that sequence read the same backwards as forwards.

I would have said parallel but the Eddie Howe/Ange fiasco were the wrong way round to be parallel.

 

[Hap Hapablap]

Yes.

Nice try, but it doesn't work

Palindrome at the Peadodrome.

More like a morbidly obese George Michael.

No i definitely meant palindrome because to me the McInnes and Howe situations were the same and the Pedro/Ange the same, so with that thinking it was:

Pedro
McInnes
Howe
Ange

But I accept it was perhaps just my view on it then.

 

[1288Bear]

Yes.

That's it mate.

"Don't back doon - double doon."

 

[TheRamblingGer]

That's it mate.

"Don't back doon - double doon."

Haha,

Nah I'll accept if others think i was wrong, just by my thinking that's how it looked ‍

Win some, lose some.

 

[TheEgg]

Who knows, but irs certainly turning into one of the great sagas.

while we motor away like a racecar

Its definitely parallel you're trying to say.

You can't just change the meaning of a word and have us all accept it

 

[TheRamblingGer]

Fair enough ‍

 

[Sandy76]

Never odd or even.

No because thats not parallel.

If it was parallel it would be the same sequence, but they way I view them is mcinnes & howe are the same type of fiasco and pedro & ange are the same type of fiasco so by timeline they wouldn't be parallel.

I appreciate from the feedback it is a stretch though.
