Devil's advocaat

I wish him nothing but the best, as I do for anyone fortunate enough to have sat in the big chair.

This 100%. Look across the city. 

 

 

I agree entirely, Europe is a nice to have. However, never in their history have Allardyce and Warnock scudded every team in their league. Big Sam plays Martin O'Neill style football, if that's what you like, go for it. Warnock is about the right age to be POTUS. 

Luis Enrique may be looking for work shortly....

Some folks can't resist repeatedly having a go at the poor guy at ever opportunity.

 

Those people are serial Cyriel Dessers dissers!

I've sat next to such people at Ibrox, often wonder why they bother.

That'll be our fault....😀

 

Look forward to competing in the B&M SPFL League.

Woolworth, presto and Rumbelows battling it out as we speak.

Astonishing how some folk want Potter who lasted weeks as Chelsea manager ahead of lampard

Potter has a very good record outside of Chelsea, who are an absolute shitshow of a club.

Both were well respected as players with no management experience

Yes, but Lamppost has management experience, he's proved he's dung.

That's a good point Rousseau.

If we go for Lampard, I'm going to watch the Juniors.

Its all a bit fluid at the moment, fingers crossed we're well down the road on a replacement. 

Are we expecting them to turn it around?. I'm thinking they'll get a few games to steady the ship, get a new manager bounce, and then the new guy comes in.

Aye, even a stopped clock is correct twice a day.

He's even more of a gobshite than Sutton, normally.

Every name that's mentioned fills me with terror

They're the same names that get spouted for everything at the moment, bar Muscat, and that's just the usual ex player link. 

Lampard. Jesus wept, I'd rather have Murty back.

Not a chance it'll be Clarke.

More managers in the last 12 years than our previous history up until then. What a horrible statistic.

There has to come a time when we give a manager time. It's not Beale, so the pressure is on the board to make the correct choice when replacing him. 

Spot on.

The number of managers we've had in the last 10-15 years is a sore point for me. To give a manager time, everything else needs to be in place, DOF, youth development, everything that the well run clubs get right.

Rumours villa are looking to agree a termination too.

Confidence is a huge factor in many players, him Dessers and Lammers look like they have potential to soar once bedded in.

The issue with that is the price soars too.

Low quality chance.

 

Superb finish. 

Okay, get ye, thanks.

Sima's finish was low quality?.

I look forward to constant repetition over the coming weeks. 🙄

Your words Bill, not mine.

Of course it is, but it's constant repetition!.

Constant repetition like the hourly calls from some for Beale to be sacked?

And going on about Tavernier after every game.

Our home record in EL since 2017 

 

Played - 32

Won - 23

Drawn - 6

Lost - 3 

 

Rather impressive record. 

Absolutely.

I think wee Tamundo may be the fastest player I've seen wear the Jersey, incredible.

You don't need to look at the EPL to see this, teams from less salubrious leagues across Europe have competed pretty well on way less than that for years.
