SUPERTOON Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Looking at some people's opinion there is not much point in getting anyone in. The reaction to anyone will force him out within months Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Looking at some people's opinion there is not much point in getting anyone in. The reaction to anyone will force him out within months I'm just hoping that the upside of some people's reactionary attitudes and short term thinking is that they will be caught up in the excitement of a new boss, and therefore get behind the team.

Pleased to hear it, as long as that means getting behind the manager as well. Hopefully everyone else in SJP agrees with us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sniffer Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I honestly don't know. Ideally I'd like ashley to sell up quickly and leave it up to the new owner. Hughton can deal with the team for now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredbob Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I honestly don't know. Ideally I'd like ashley to sell up quickly and leave it up to the new owner. Hughton can deal with the team for now. See, im in the camp where im still unsure - i still think Ashley has done good for this club - having said that even as a billionaire he doesnt have the finance to give us a great shot - my best bet is that he's stay until he makes the club stable and therefore more sellable and a higher price - theres no way in a million years that he's running scared and looking to offload asap. Would love to have a young foreign manager with plenty of potential to build the club up, would be very welcome in my eyes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I'm not waiting, sorry but i believe this to be our genuine chance to get back the football we all love, the entertaining one. Zico will get the best out of our players and give them confidence something that we have lacked ever since SBR. I mean we got potentially a good squad and can easily reach a top 6 if we get the best of our players. Keegan would have done that, Riijkaard, Mancini would never. Zico will if he gets this job trust me when i say this have difficulties in the beginning but as soon as he adapts 5-10 matches we will be on a rool, the confidence boost will be massive and for once St James will once again stand for ovations after the matches. And we might actually for once since SBR be decent at set pieces that is a massive advantage in todays football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggio Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 What did people think of his Fenerbahce side when they visited SJP? Looked decent on the counter attack but wasted too many good breaks, I'd put that down to the players fault. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
