thomas Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I'd stake the future of fiat currency on "absolutely anything" turning out to be wholly disappointing, though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Apart from Robson, we haven't hired a maanger of genuine pedigree in my lifetime. Even Keegan was coming into his first job. Rafa would make a nice change. Who am I kidding? McC's probably distracted Charnley with osme magic beans and convinced him he can get us out of this. Dalglish. Yep. Whatever you thought about his time here he did great things at Liverpool and Blackburn. Sure this has been gone over loads, but the failure of that appointment convinces me we're jinxed. Won the league at his previous 2 teams, even won the League Cup at his 'unsuccessful' second Liverpool spell. Inherited a team that'd come second, had good relationship and experience of winning the league with our new main man. Comes 13th. FFS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I've changed my mind, anyway. I do think they are considering their options, otherwise something would have got out by now - officially or more likely via the local journalists and/or 'media partners' stating that they have full confidence in McClaren turning things around. They clearly have doubts about that. That said, if they do decide to bin him (and I'll still be surprised if they do) I fully expect the replacement to be the lowest rent option. Sherwood, Pearson, Redknapp, Sanchez or similar. It absolutely will not be someone of the calibre of Benitez. Even if they miraculously decided someone like that was suddenly worthy of investment, I simply cannot see what attraction there would be. We don't offer full control (we employ coaches, not managers), we don't offer good wages, we don't have a good squad and the facilities are pathetic by modern standards. Most important of all we're in a downward spiral and heading for relegation. Nobody of any repute would touch us with a shitty stick, and rightly so. Dave is on the turn, that's one of the 4 horsemen right there. The Rafture is coming. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Maybe I'm just being stupid but I legit think we'll get Rafa like Same here, though not quite as strongly.

Hanshithispantz Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I don't think there's any chance tbh, I think that for all we're hearing from journalists about how Steve will go the board will issue him with a vote of confidence and he'll be in charge for Leicester. When the lose then fuck knows, probably just the Carver situation all over again only this time I don't think there's any chance of staying up. I hope to fuck I'm wrong.

duo Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Problem with Benitez is I'm fairly sure he'd want more than £600k per annum. Drop in ocean of what we stand to loose in TV money. And besides how much we wasted on the likes of Cabella. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gomez Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Surely they'd negotiate some kind of extension clause if he kept us up... Nah 10 games with Benitez, then hire Pardew on another 8 year contract after he's been viciously hounded out of Palace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
