Not true sinkov. I know for 100% certain Eddie was living on the Edenfield side of Rochdale, next door to Keith Hill in fact. Mrs Howe was suffering from post natal syndrome and when his mother passed he had little choice but to return home.Quote:

It was very sad because his mother's death came out of the blue and was quite sudden. It is one of the worse things to cope with when a parent passes and you are a distance away from home. Add his wife's problems to that and you don't need much imagination to realise that his mind could not have been on the job in hand at that time.Quote:

Fair enough BT, would you just confirm that Eddie's wife and family had moved up here with him, before I bo11ock the person who fed me the duff information. Thank you.Quote:

You wonder where Eddie will go now BT, he seemed the perfect fit at Bournemouth. You have to wonder just why he doesn't fancy trying to take them back up, He's known nowt but football all his life, he must be looking for another club, but if he's wedded to that area, he's a bit restricted for choice. Anyway good luck to him, he seems a decent lad, maybe too nice I sometimes think.
An Eagles supporting mate of mine from Sydenham says Howe will takeover from Woy at Palace. Sounds logical does that.Quote:

It seems that the club were happy for him to continue but he decided that they would progress better with a change. Jason Tindall is in temporary charge, however, I wonder whether he will continue or feel that he is being disloyal to Eddie. We shall see.Quote:
