Dragon55544 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 What a fucking joke man. We are a complete embarassment to ourselves, where the fuck do we go from here? Why are we an embarassment? Because a manager turned us down your embarassed? We sack our manager, appoint Graeme Souness who fights with all and sundry. We sack him, stick Roeder in charge, fight for him to be able to manage the club against the wishes of the FA, then sack him. We appoint an experienced, proven manager, and hound him out from day one, sack him, then have no replacement lined up. Then we get turned down by a bog standard manager. You don't find any of this embarassing? Have you no shame? Im annoyed not embarassed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Andrew Flintoff Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 The media, other fans, other managers, other staff, everyone is pissing themselves laughing at us once more. Just when we thought we'd got rid of the source of the problem, it keeps happening. We're completely fucked Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offshore Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Granted I haven't read every page article on this but has anyone other than 'insiders' or papers actually confirmed we'd contacted Portsmouth and then Harry's turned us down or has he just ruled himself out before being asked?

Tsunami Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Sam must be pissing himself this morning; probably already spoken with Harry & will share a glass of wine with him tonight/ tomorrow. Mort needs to pull a rabbit out of the hat now. Ashley must be livid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 He's rejected us for the reasons why we all thought he wasn't a candidate, i cannot see why that is a problem. He's a settled old man living a life of luxury, he'd be mad to take the job. No hard feelings, he's probably saved himself a heart attack tbh. It doesn't matter if this was the boards 1sts choice, it was their 1st choice because they had some kind of links with him, its a safe bet so to speak, now thats gone they'll have to raise their game, i'm sure its not the 1st barrier the pair have ever come across in their business life, they'll get over it, and still the next manager will be their choice, thats all that matters. Who knows, this could reset their way of thinking, and now they might approach managers they wouldn't usually, push the boat out not just in terms of money, but in terms of direction. Or they could give it to Hughes, which for me is just a swap for previous. bet SA is having a good laugh rolling around in his undeserved pay-off.

BlueStar Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Going to end up being Shearer now I reckon, we'll have a look at the remaining options and they'll all be dire so he'll have to ride over from playing golf in Barbados as our knight in shining armour to save the day. Can see it ending in tears but fuck it, it's got to happen some time. Unless we spank Man U 5-0 in which case Pearson will get it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Fucking hell, I did not see this coming. Even though I didn't want Harry, this is bad news IMO. Shearer looking very likely now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Andrew Flintoff Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Would you want to take a job knowing you were not as highly rated by the people doing the appointing as Harry Redknapp?!? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 On the plus side, all the ITKs who put thousands on Redknapp on Betfair are fucked. Redknapp says he's never spoken to Ashley, just Mort. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Harry confirming he met with and was made a massive offer by Chris Mort last night. Good interview from Redknapp, to be fair, hold no grudges against him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest elbee909 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Would you want to take a job knowing you were not as highly rated by the people doing the appointing as Harry Redknapp?!? 7 million or so a year would ease the terrible pain.
