    And you probably didn't see it when he finished fifth with us last season? What a bizarre thing to say. We have had 15 managers in 24 years. So that is a change every one point six years. Which is 19-20 months. How can you argue therefore that we won't end up back here again if that is what...

    You are listing things that in the case of modric and berba are more than a decade ago. Since then we have had manager after manager give the board a list of players and get the budget alternative. Gedson instead of Fernandes, even vicario instead of Raya. It's a big part of why we are where we...

    If this leads to a full review if the football staff and acceptance of the failings being across all disciplines its worth it. If we just hired Silva/Frank without restructuring the back office we will be here again in 18 months time.

    He was more likeable than Ange for sure.

    Ange has a higher win percentage than Jol, and has got us further in cup competitions. albeit big Mart managed 148 games to Ange's 80.

    also a very short bit or research has shown that while this season has the potential to be the worst we've had, actually the 1993/94 season was worse by almost any metric you want to consider, goals scored, goals conceded, games lost etc etc. I'm going to throw up an olive branch here because...

    interesting that you ignored the rest of my post and just focused on that bit though.

    do you consider Ramos and Ange to be comparable?

    I'm not deflecting, nor am I deluded. I am simply saying if we want "success" then sacking Ange is not the complete answer. He's going to go soon, because he's failed in the job he was given, but there's so much more we need to sort is my point.

    see hyperbole such as "living memory" don't help your cause here. There were worse teams in terms of the style and also performance. Spurs were relegated 76/77 which is well within living memory for a lot of fans. I can see how you would think that I'm trying to absolve the manager of blame...

    Look at the earnings of the club - if we finish 17th we get £50m less than 4th or such - this will be the metric on which he is likely measured. It will then also form the basis of the club's recruitment policy in the summer because "we didn't achieve the on field objectives to fund the further...

    It was just my audition to be on your pod cast Steff. But honestly, I don't think many read my longer posts, as like you said the world is now being atomically polarised to be positive or negative, and if there's a different view its dismissed. We have the footprint to be one of the biggest...

    Weirdly me. And not in the truest sense of the word. This is a dreadful season. Truly, wholeheartedly garbage. My issue is that I just don't see how things are going to change while the status quo remains in the whole football setup at the club. Lange was paratici was ....back to comolli and...

    *** Tottenham Hotspur v Nottingham Forest ***

    Forest touched the ball in our box four times in the entire game. 4 times. Forget everything else that is an absolutely mind boggling stat. How the hell do you lose to a team that has four touches in your box all night????

    Respectfully to Celtic we should be a harder proposition than them for Bodo, we compete (sic) in a harder league week in week out and also have a number of players who due to extended breaks are now relatively fresh and coming into some form. Take Udogie for example, I was annoyed when Spence...

    Nope players booked tonight who had already been booked will miss the first leg of the semi final.

    Agreed but if its us against utd in the final i fancy us to beat utd. They aren't good when teams are hounding them.
