Yet the bookies seem to have him favourite as first to go...

Considering that we now have a near full fit squad, no extra games in Europe, and that we lost out on Europe last season, the owners may not be as patient this time around. But, for the same reasons, and the fact that Howe especially thrives in these circumstances (fit squad and no Europe), I really doubt that we will do poorly.

Most people are DESPERATE for him to leave us (Either for England or to be sacked) and for us to get someone lime Mourinho in and then implode with a series of shit and increasingly desperate managerial appointments. That includes most journalists who just by numbers are likely to support other teams, often teams we're looking to overhaul in the league.

 

Always remember that everyone has an agenda.

i got laughed out of town for this, but Howe has now had his 'poor season' which the owners have given him, they won't let him have another, and with staverley gone he has less friends in board room. If we have a bad start i have no doubt he will be gone unless everyone gets injured from car crashes that arent his fault or something as we have fewer games to worry about. In short I do think he has more pressure than other managers in the league and if we're deep midtable in mid october i imagine there will be serious rumblings. 

 

This is not what i think will happen by the way i think we will have a good season.

I want Eddie Howe for 20+ years. He's a bloody great manager and I'm so happy that since the takeover, we haven't done manager after manager all past it. Eddie's fresh and learning. 

He's only going to get better too!

I despise this kind of nonsense. Nearly as much as you apparently hate commas

Yeah fuck commas.

 

It's clearly not nonsense, think if we have a bad start we are going to give him another season not bothering champions league with our PSR nonsense issues? And again Howe is great, this is not going to happen but I can understand why bookies have him as a favourite.

To be clear I was mainly joking, although I do think the central premise of your view - that it was a poor season which showed Howe in a bad light - is wrong. I don’t know how the ultimate owners viewed it all but you’d hope there’s a sensible voice in there somewhere which explains that, if you consider context, it was actually quite a good but ultimately frustrating season. Clearly they have some concern about methods and injuries, but I don’t take that to mean he’s on performance probation.

I don't think the season showed Howe in a bad light at all for the record. I just think the owners, especially with Staverley gone will be looking at the bottom line, which will be hurt if we are not top 4. I also think they will rationalize that they were already very patient with him with last seasons woes and will think not too late in the season will be as good a time as any and see if there's better available. I think it will be a mistake as well, and I hope we are patient, but all I am saying is I can understand why some of the betting companies have taken this view. 

 

edit: Also sorry, i wasn't really hurt I just feel i express this and the first two responses are furious and I don't understand why, I'm not attacking Howe I love him

He’s under less pressure as it stands given we haven’t made any major transfers. We go into next week with a weaker starting 11 than at the beginning of last season (as it stands currently).
