Klaus Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 We just need some cunt in who can keep us in the top flight long enough for a takeover to go through. Don't think too much about the long term prospects under whoever we get in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Jinx Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 British managers available, Hughes, Howe, McLeish, Martin O’Neill, Nigel Pearson, Pardew, Pulis. All exposed over the last number of seasons. Ex Everton manager Marco Silva could be an option. He was doing quite well there for a time, just not quickly enough for their new owners.

PlymouthGeordie Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Right so if he gets sacked, who replaces him? Realistic answers.. Howe, Farke and Thomas Frank are the three obvious candidates. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye the Brentford manager looks like he’s an up and coming. There’s no way the club would be paying compensation to anyone though so it will be someone unemployed and hopefully willing to accept a short term contract Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think he’s a good coach but he needs a job to build up his confidence. This shit heap would ruin him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffJ Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 If they do decide to sack Bruce then I’m sure Charnley has the long shortlist of people who didn’t want the job before they got all the way down to Bruce at No13 so we’re in good hands.

Abra Dubravka Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Had a look through his managerial history to see if he had any track record of turning stinking runs of form around. He doesn't. Reading through his past, never realised how much of a disloyal shitbag he's been Here's some amusing lowlights... Sheff United 1999 - First job in football, he resigned due to "turmoil in the club's boardroom and a shortage of funds for transfers". Big time b******. Huddersfield - 1999 sacked - LWLDLLLLLDDL - chairman said he wasted £3M on players, and had an 'ego to feed' Wigan 2000 - left for Palace after 2 months P8 W3 D2 L3 Palace 2001 - tried to resign after 3months to go to Birmingham Birmingham 05/06 Dropped to 18th in 22/10 and stayed in relegation zone remainder of season, two wins in final 12 games Birmingham 06/07 Largest budget in division, DLDLL then publicly stated he feared he'd get the sack, but was promoted then left for Wigan and claimed Karen Brady 'shafted him' over a new contract Sunderland 10/11 5under1and, Feburary to mid April - LLLLDLLLL Sunderland 11/12 Ryan Taylor Over The Wall, sacked after DLDLLWLWD Hull 2014 2-0 up in a cup final after 10mins, lost 4-2 Hull 2015 Out in EL play offs to Lokeren, relegated WDLDDWDDLLLLDDLLWLWLLLDWWLDDLLWWLLLD Hull 2016 Promoted via play-offs, then resigned pre-season as he "became frustrated by a lack of transfer activity" Villa 2017 Lost in play-off final Villa 2018 3-1 up against bottom of the league Preston, whilst playing Grealish, Abraham, McGinn, Bolasie - drew 3-3, cabbaged tossed at him, sacked WDDDLDWLDD Sheff Wed 2019 Named manager in January, but left Steve & Steve in charge until Febuary whilst he was in the Caribbean.

Yes but are either likely to accept a short term deal? The rest, which it’s terrifying to say probably are on a par with Bruce when it comes to ability/results. What would be the point. The club can only sack him if they have a viable replacement who will take a 7 month contract. In a different reality we sack him and get a capable manager in, this to me would signal something positive on the takeover front. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 We have Arsenal, Leeds then Everton the next 3 games. He will be gone soon enough. This. He is getting sacked sooner or later. It is just whether it happens in time and the replacement isn't worse that decides whether we stay in the league. It will be another knacker like Pulis until the end of the season, then he gets rewarded with a 7 year contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to think they had a little debate after it went up "You put Joelinton on there before Hendrick?" "Oh fuck better squeeze him in too" "What about Shelvey?" "Shit someones coming, peg it.."
