    Ange departs

    Not bored of it no. My expectations are lower than a lot on here, hence why I was ok with giving Ange the start of this season unless someone (almost) definitely better comes in. In two seasons he's got us a 5th place finish and a European trophy supplemented with European football. Yes this...

    This only works when you are a City or Chelsea which is my point. We will forever be stuck in this cycle unless ownership changes or expectations do....

    Ok well in that case we will either be forever rotating managers every two years or so until we change owners. And yes Poch did it for a couple of seasons, but football has moved on since then and more rich clubs have come to the party in our league....

    Ange departs

    Yeah I mean obviously messiah was an exaggeration. So what actually is the plan? After all these years I'm confused as to what it is. We are never winning the league without spending big, we can hoover plenty of young talents but will always be superseded by the teams who actually buy the top...

    Ange departs

    Yup, it's done now. I don't think Frank is the man and think he will be chewed up and spat out like others have been. But goes without saying will have my support. Might aswell just enjoy the positive stage of the cycle, where most posters are saying what a great exciting appointment this will...

    Ange departs

    Yeah I'm not that concerned either way, I still think there's a lot of work that needs to be done with our squad. Not convinced that there is such a revolt anyway, the media like to dramatise things. I often recall these type of things said, but I never recall some sort of mass walkout of...

    The player revolt thing was being reported in the Telegraph to be fair....

    I'm not trying to put down Frank, I think he is a decent coach and a good human being. I just don't think he was enough of a 'sure bet' (I know there's no such thing with managers) to bin off the guy who's just won us a European trophy for. And I don't think he's the guy to take on and steer...

    Contingency planning : we've found our guy

    Keep hearing this success path being about consistently finish high up the league - well we had that with Poch, won naff all and then the squad went on a massive comedown. And now we just binned off a coach who proved he could win a trophy for a guy who to be polite, hasn't. The real recipe for...

    Wage bill is not reflective of talent, Brentford have exceptional recruitment - like Brighton it is that rather than the manager that is the X factor. Just seen Mbuemo is on 50k per week there, that does not reflect the quality....

    Contingency planning : we've found our guy

    It's Brentford's recruitment that is the X factor, and wage bill isn't indicative of the quality of the player - how much are they paying Mbuemo and how much were we paying the likes of Werner? Anyway it is what it is, he will have my support but my expectations aren't much here. Back to the...

    Contingency planning : we've found our guy

    You're thinking of Anges very first game in charge of the 23/24 season. We then beat them at home, and then did the double over them this season.....

    Ange departs

    Or a proven winner like Ange? This argument is so boring, as if every top manager would not work here....

    Ange departs

    Yeah we can only hope, he will certainly have my support. No manager appointment is a guarantee by any stretch as we have seen many times, but given the choice I would have stuck with Ange for the time being. If the stellar choices are Thomas Frank or Silva then fudge me....

    Ange departs

    Yeah. Literally the same amount of points during this 'horrendous' period - whilst they get knocked out of cups early, no Europe so we play over half a seasons games more than them, 'master tactician' Frank gets done twice by 'no tactics' Ange, never won a tournament in his life vs the guy who...

    Their total for last two seasons is 95 points so not sure where you're getting your info from. There's a table for Anges last 66 games and Brentford are one point above us (albeit for them 65 games)

    Ange departs

    So they want to employ the guy with 79 points from the same period. Progress eh....

    Ange departs

    Agree with this from Oliver Holt: Talk of the succession, of course, is already rife. Thomas Frank, who has done such a consistently brilliant job at Brentford and is one of the best man-managers in the game, is the favourite to take over. Andoni Iraola, the Bournemouth boss, has been...
