Who has been voted into power to create this super league thing like? Fans vote with their wallets.

Keegan? I stand corrected on this. I think he's very much the exception that proves the rule though... TBF Keegan wasn't your typical footballer. He always had way more charisma than the rest. Don't think he ever intended to go into management. Maybe that's the problem with footballers that go on to become managers, they're groomed for it, by people that know fuck all (or maybe they assume too much) about what it takes. Think the reflection on Ferguson kinda demonstrates that. He's remembered for the hairdryer, as much as developing some of the world's greatest football talent. But the hairdryer is just one tool in his arsenal, which he used sparingly and to great effect. He was able to use it sparingly, because the rest of his arsenal meant it was rarely required. He's also remembered as uncharismatic, but in his own circle he is highly cherished.

The Bootle Globetrotters.

Yep. And the quality won't matter because the pundits will tell us it's better than ever.

Of course they are. But they should be kicked out of English football so they can get on with it. I was joking, actually.

They're entitled to maximise their earning potential.

I'm not convinced Fergie would be a good manager these days anyway. This is some claim, surely worthy of elaboration? I think the game has changed so much since he was last managing. He was about work ethic, man management and a strong disciplinarian. None of those things are irrelevant these days. In fact I'd argue they're even more important in the modern game. I'm not saying he wouldn't be better than OGS btw. Just don't think he'd compete with the likes of Pep and Klopp. But that's exactly what disqualifies your original point. Pep and Klopp also have those traits.

I've never liked Lawrence. Until now.

hideous

He might as well not score til December. Come on. you know the tune.

But what's he doing to promote the dangers of heading a football?

I agree. It's just that average qualifies you as one of the best at the club. Best looking waitress at Denny's.

Bruce's limitations are not part of any narrative that promotes the PL. He's a PL winner that went on to have a successful career as a PL manager, taking control of over 400 [who checks?] PL games.

As long as we don't play too many attackers we should be ok. 2-0 defeat. Fuck it. Go gung ho, don't play any attacking players, and win 6-0 -
Can't separate them. Both exactly the same. We just suffered Pardew longer, so the scars are deeper [particularly the self harming ones].

The thing that makes it worse with Bruce though is the fact he was actually managed by one of the best managers the Premiership has ever seen (if not THE best) and he hasn't even learned anything from him. Absolute joke Not strictly true. He knows everything that Fergie taught him. But Fergie knew Bruce's limitations and therefore never told him much. beyond being a big lump. A very effective lump [on the pitch] but that doesn't translate into management.
-
It's the exact same feeling. Hate them as managers and detest them as human beings for stealing a living as a manager.

"If you do what I do, you get fucked" Aye Steve, we know that. That's why we would like you to, kindly, fuck right off.
