    Thank you everyone for your congratulations.
    It's really lovely to have people that I don't even know being positive for us.
    We haven't told anyone IRL as we are dreading the comments that we will get. I think some of you know that we have six children already. I realise that is a lot but they are amazing children and even though it wasn't planned there is no real reason to not add another person to our family. DH is an amazing husband and Daddy, has a reasonable job and would do anything for us. We have a big enough house (just), mortgaged but we will get there. I am lucky enough to be a SAHM so don't rely on anyone else for childcare, other than the odd evening out when my Mum babysits. We are always being complimented on how well behaved and polite the children are and on the whole I think we do a pretty good job with them- DH and I make a good team and make up for each other's short comings. Thanks to you guys the children are well fed and clothed, don't really go without anything and what they do go without is more than made up for in love. They are all very proud of each other and love and support each other.
    Despite all this I know that we will receive very negative reactions from family. I don't even really understand why.
    So thank you for being happy for us, it means a lot xxx

    No One else's business really apart from yours and DH :p:D;)

    Congratulations. Seven isnt much really. My gran had 11 and five more step kids when she remarried then adopted another. If they are fed and loved so be it.

    I only have two due to medical reasons but would gave happily had one or two more.

    Good luck honey and we will watch you progress

    Much love x

    The favourite is Van Gaal, the Dutch team coach. He is available after world cup in Brazil. Most other good ones signed 3 year contracts or longer last year (Klopp/Guardiola/Mourinho amongst them).Others being mentioned a lot are Ancelotti (current manager of Real Madrid, also in a contract but RM change managers so often the press don't seem to think that is a problem!)
    Really hope the route of changing managers every 5 mins doesn't become the norm :(, should have got the lovely Jose when he was available :)
    BTW, only know all this because DS2 has talked about nothing else all week :)

    Here are current odds:

    The one I keep hearing is Diego Simeone from Athletico & Laurent Blanc has been mentioned a few times as well. My money's on Van Gaal
    If only batman was here, he'd soon get you told
