littlelunchbox Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Surprised he risked Marveaux, what does Amalfitano have to do to get a bit of play time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Not changed my mind since HT. He has to go. Managers have been sacked for a lot less than the run we presently find ourselves on. Leaving him in charge = relegation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 That should be it but I really think if we lose at Norwich, it really will be it. Time for people to think of alternatives as there's every chance we'll get nothing at Norwich either. I'd like Martinez, but I don't see us spending much so I've already given a cheap alternative in the other thread. Who else is a candidate? I don't know the foreign market very well. Realistically we're looking at the list of unattached managers. We won't spend money for a manager and based on track record and the board's personality I highly doubt we'd go foreign. People like Mark Hughes, Shearer(), Owen Coyle, Alan Curbishley, Roberto Di Matteo, Gordon Strachan... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 He really has to go, we're going to do nothing with him, we need a lift and he's not capable of doing that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 He won't be here next season, certain of it. Ashley probably wants to show backing and stability to the next manager, and he really is doing that right now. Season is going nowhere and as long as Ashley brings in a few quality players we will stay up. Then he will sack him, allowing a new manager to know he's got time and a good squad to start with. If we keep him and don't sign a CB and a replacement for Ba then it's clear the board are just playing a high stakes game of roulette with our club and eventually house always wins.

toontownman Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 That should be it but I really think if we lose at Norwich, it really will be it. Huge game. I think it will be a draw. They won't sack him though. Regardless of injuries it's down to him to make sure we have a squad great enough to cope with the demands of the season. A good manager can motivate worse players than we have to play better. There is no excuse for today's performance. He can't come out with some bollocks about the sending off either (although he will), we were getting brutalized prior. I have zero faith in our coaching staff right now. Even with injuries we should be playing better with the personnel we have. They make the wrong decisions tactically and they set the team up to fail from the start. It is an absolute disaster right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Aye, the fact Pardew doesn't have much of a bearing on transfers might make it easier to get rid this month. Don't think it would have an affect on incomings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider Jerusalem Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Not changed my mind since HT. He has to go. Managers have been sacked for a lot less than the run we presently find ourselves on. Leaving him in charge = relegation. The next match up is against the manager he replaced as he was a better option apparently. How ironic would it be.... .... but he'll still be here playing hoofball in the championship next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 How come every manager except Keegan and Robson that we employ are so small minded same as the chairman/owners. No class whatsoever, no plan, no sense. I just can't see the on pitch vision for the club. I can accept the buying policy for players but fuck me there is no direction on the pitch and we can't even do basics well (Pass, Positioning, Throw Ins), I have never watched a team in last few years have such little idea with Set Pieces, Throw Ins, open play as we appear to.

Beren Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Find it rather unbelievably the media aren't shit-stirring/speculating over him being sacked.

oldtype Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I'm not even worried about transfers. It's who we'll actually appoint that scares me shitless. This board's record with appointing actual managers is, in order, Kevin Keegan, Joe Kinnear, Alan Shearer, and Alan Pardew. There are few things I fear more than letting them pick another manager.

Don't think it would have an affect on incomings. Every manager we have from now on should be given no longer than 2 year contract and renew after a year. Certainly not 8 years because it's gone to the fuckers head Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dyeyzzon Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 That should be it but I really think if we lose at Norwich, it really will be it. Chance of getting anything at Norwich are nil. I'd love to see Hughton be the one to strike the final blow, that would be fantastic karma after what this f***ing snake did to steal a man's job. Aye, forgot that Norwich was up next, at Carrow Road. Written in the stars. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
