    Circus ManUnitus - Nobody's At The Wheel

    On the BBC, Southgate was winning the vote last time I checked. In fairness, I voted for him coz it'd be hilarious so I suspect it's the likes of me that are "supporting" his appointment.

    Cheatski are still scum

    Yeah I heard that after I posted the above. It's staggering to think managers are being told how many minutes to play players. Absolutely mind boggling. All managers we've had, from the interviews I've seen, have said that Levy never interfered like that or allowed anyone to interfere like that...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    It's a f**king stupid chart for all of the reasons you outline and more. If we take win % as the sole metric to determine the competence of our managers, Bill Nic and Arthur Rowe aren't even in the top 10 and are behind such luminaries as Tim Sherwood, Ryan Mason and AVB. Agenda driven...

    Manager Sack Watch

    It's a fair point. Scrutiny maybe the wrong word as it implies actual analysis. They are subject to much more attention/spacegoating from the media.

    Manager Sack Watch

    They are towards the bottom I guess but it’s a brutal, brutal business. In a world where managers have less control over recruitment, much more scrutiny from media, much less patience from fans and less power within the club because the players are valuable assets, it’s an impossible job for...

    Mauricio Pochettino

    Neville has always wanted him and he fits exactly what Neville thinks a United manager should be.

    *** OMT: Spurs vs Sunderland*** Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Sunday 4th January, 3pm

    Fair enough mate, your viewpoint is as informed as mine because (I'm assuming) neither of us have had first hand experience of these sorts of deals. I can see the logic in what we've done but may be wrong and you may be correct. Personally, I'm happy we got the deal done despite the short term...

    *** OMT: Spurs vs Sunderland*** Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Sunday 4th January, 3pm

    Haha I hear you brother. My daughter asked me at the game today “why do you have so much grey hair”. “I’m 46, I’ve 2 kids and I support Spurs.” That’s too much stress for any man.

    *** OMT: Spurs vs Sunderland*** Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Sunday 4th January, 3pm

    We are where we are because of past decisions. 100%. But I don’t get the criticism of the Johnson sale, I really don’t. We decided the lad was surplus to requirements and got the deal done quickly for a good price. Drag our heels until we sign someone and Palace may move on or try to bargain us...

    *** OMT: Spurs vs Sunderland*** Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Sunday 4th January, 3pm

    During the second half, I genuinely thought the crowd hadn’t been bad because the vibe was muted but kinda positive. Think I was just relieved that there was no abuse or real negativity around me. Wasn’t particularly loud though. Sunderland fans were decent I thought.

    *** OMT: Spurs vs Sunderland*** Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Sunday 4th January, 3pm

    Thought the first half was excellent and the second half poor. Credit to Sunderland. Dunno what they did specifically but they dominated us second half. Tel was very good. Odobert was very good. Thought the defenders were excellent. Bentancur was the standout for me. It’s disappointing to not...

    *** OMT: Spurs vs Sunderland*** Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Sunday 4th January, 3pm

    That is as good a performance as I’ve seen in months. Effort has been outstanding, the press has been coordinated, the intent has been good. Defensively very solid. Odobert been the pick of a very good bunch. Only watch points are that we’ve taken an extra touch too often and I can’t imagine...

    (Brennan) Johnson Again Olé Olé!

    Sad it didn't work out because I think he has talent and he seems a decent lad but not sorry he's gone as he just didn't do enough in games. Brilliant finisher but too often anonymous. Very best of luck to him though. Have no ill-will towards him and will always be grateful for Bilbao.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Jesus, that's harsh. It was a hard watch and these people have given up New Year's evening and their money to watch that brick. But still... Frank must surely realise that he's walked into a bit of a basket case of a club where expectations outweigh resources and the "family" feel he instilled...
