Baggio Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I was reading a Man City forum the other day and some of the fans are starting to turn on Shinawatra, they thought he was great when he was putting the money in last Summer but they've just realised he's a dodgy customer. mancityfans.net? I was reading threads about Shinawatra on there this morning. That stuff about "I won't be spending big money this summer, but the summer after I will" sounds very dodgy. Might of been, it was one of the forums linked in the sticky at the top. Some people saying the money he spent on transfers last Summer will be paid for over a few years which is why they won't spend much this Summer, does seem strange not to spend much this year after his initial investment but will spend the year after, after all he's the one that employed Sven in the first place.

I'm sure Shinawatra's people in particular would have been well on top of that kind of thing from day one. The whole reason he bought the club was for PR reasons so he won't want some famous football coach slagging him off in the tabloids for being a lunatic.

We done the same with Dalglish IIRC as part of his pay off, saying that Shepherd tried to do it to Robson (wanted his book edited) but Robson refused.

Dave Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 It would be pretty fucking funny if after all the shit we got this season, we end on a complete high (pretty much there already like) and the likes of City and Liverpool are all over the shop.

Guest Knightrider Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I don't rate Sven as high as others do, but Man City would be mad to get rid of him, they are hardly likely to attract a better calibre of manager. Madness indeed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see what Liverpool and Man City have to worry about considering they don't have owners who sit with the fans, Shinawatra and Hicks are nothing when compared to that, and it's understandable really.

Rich Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Dunno if it's been mentioned, but Inside Sport just showed the Daily Express, which is reporting that Sven has told "friends" that he's off in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor Swift Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Sven will stay if he's smart and ride out this storm. Thaksin will give him a lot of money sooner rather than later. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 He's going, according to BBC Sport... Eriksson to be sacked by Man City By Simon Austin Sven-Goran Eriksson has been told he will be sacked as Manchester City manager at the end of the season, BBC Sport understands. City owner Thaksin Shinawatra told Eriksson he was "not the right man for the job" at a meeting on Sunday, a source close to the Swede said. Eriksson informed the players at training on Monday that he would be dismissed, provoking an angry response. Shinawatra has been unhappy with City's results since the turn of the year. Let's get Dunne in, after we've all finished laughing at them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
