Personally I'm Anti Sala, disgraceful misuse of power brandishing only the Pro Sala view

I mean... the fact the leaks only started after Chelsea signed a certain someone and said certain someone stopped being a certain starter? That is pretty solid evidence in and of itself, IMO

Bullets.

Will be Italy (if they fail to qualify through the "lucky losers" round). They're would bring in more money for FIFA than any of the other alternatives at the same time as being the highest ranked (13th) nation to not qualify, enabling FIFA to spin some absolute bullshit excuse like "We believe that by following the FIFA Rankings we will ensure the world get to watch only the best of the best face off on the biggest stage of all; the FIFA World Cup!"

3-0 now!

Not to mention that this is the first competitive match for Bodø/Glimt since November 4th last year They've only just started pre-season!

Aaaaand Bodø/Glimt just doubled the lead!

Bodø/Glimt take the lead against a pretty much full-strength Man City

I mean... The Oxford Dictionary has his back: One could even say that the Oxford Dictionary absolutely rapes Given's critics...

Wolves have cut their asking price for JSL by a fair bit more than what's been reported in the media as of late and in pole position to get him over the line as JSL, or to be more precise; his representatives, have taken note of what happens to the strikers signing for West Ham Jan Åge Fjørtoft being ground zero for this info dump will never not feel like a joke, but in this specific scenario (JSL) he might not be bullshitting as much as he tends to do on average due to the fact he should be clued up on all things JSL given how his son is a part of JSL's reps

Long overdue that they make it official tbh, but have to say it was some top-tier shithousery by Man City to pull-back putting pen to paper on Jan 2nd so Semenyo would kit up for Bournemouth against Arsenal to give them a better chance at getting something from that fixture

It'll be him or Carrick, fwiw. Or a combination where OGS will be hired as "Head Coach" and Carrick as "Assistant Head Coach". The club and OGS agreed personal terms during a meeting last night between Jason Wilcox, OGS and his agent. Final decision apparently not expected until after the weekend due to OGS traveling from Manchester to Molde early this morning to attend Åge Hareide's funeral. Nothing not already reported by media everywhere, mind you

My mind's just not structured to deal with a question like this where there's a fact-based answer in any other way than answering the fact-based answer If I was to solely base my answer on the emotional impact provided by an NUFC manager in my lifetime, it's hard to look past Howe being in charge of the team that won the first piece of silverware I've witnessed NUFC winning in my lifetime If basing it on "good memories of the time a manager was in charge of NUFC", it'll be hard for me to not answer SBR as his time in charge is also the time in my life when I'd become "old enough" to really pay attention to NUFC on a week-by-week basis compared to the earlier "being a kid" phase in my life as an NUFC supporter (where it was more "I support NUFC, NUFC are the best!" rather than "Given the players at the manager's disposal, I believe it'd serve us better if player X was i the first XI rather than player Y" and so on), thus essentially serving as the baseline for all emotional impact NUFC would have on my life in all the years to follow – both negatively and positively. A "combined" answer taking all three scenarios for coming up with an answer would likely see me answer Howe, as he's second in PPG of NUFC managers in my lifetime + won actual, genuine, silverware in the process – as well as him having overseen our return from the Ashley years and our subsequent evolution from "PL filler club" into a team wanting to win stuff. At the same time, it just feels wrong to answer Howe for me until his time here has come to a close, as I don't know how I'll feel about his complete time in charge of the club and so on

In my lifetime it'll be Kevin Keegan, given the fact he has the highest PPG of all our managers since I was born in 1989.

PPG PL average of 1.86 pre-Ronaldo signing PPG PL average of 1.30 post-Ronaldo signing Top 15 PL rolling table during OGS period as manager: Man Utd PPG average: 1.80 Top 15 PL rolling table since OGS' sacking: Man Utd PPG average: 1.55

He did. That signing was the turning point for them towards negativity, really. Which makes total sense for those familiar with OGS as a manager and how his "main ability" in the role essentially is building team spirit and confidence among players, so throwing a "fuck the team, I'm the hype" massive cunt mentality into the mix wouldn't exactly go well.

OGS would be just what they need, at least in the short term, as they need to believe in themselves and making players believe they're unbeatable is essentially 90% of what his managerial style equates to. Given what we know of the time since they sacked him, I think it's also quite fair to say that sacking him was a big mistake.

@Froggy Who you want as full-time caretaker until the end of the season then? (aware you've probably answered this a bunch of times in various threads, but I can't be arsed reading through the lot, so yeah.. )

I mean... I just thought it might offer an interesting addition to the "VAR sucks" discussions on here In no way did I mean for it to imply that there's any other "official" error report than the annual VAR report the FA releases (or at least used to release, can't recall seeing one make the rounds for last season after it finished )

Could we actually end up seeing a successful quadruple promotion run...?
