toontownman Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 It's a very odd situation if this is all true. Fingers crossed it isn't. Either way we have to get it sorted, hire someone and move on. We need change and to back the new manager to survive. We simply need an interim at this point. Huge embarrassment for the ownership if the uturn is true. It felt odd from the start it would be leaked the day of an import CL match. If it was supposed to stay water tight until tmrw I can understand Emery being annoyed and having second thoughts. Guess we will wait and see. Prepared for howe or a panic martinez play. Favre suddenly seems very attractive lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickyprickles Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 2 hours ago, Billy Pilgrim said: It very much sounds like stavely thought he was a yes and told her journos, but he never actually agreed or saw a firm offer and has had 24 hours of feeling bounced into it. The idea that he says no now and comes back to it in a year is for the birds, if he doesn’t want the job and causes ructions he won’t get the offer again. What worries me is that we are 2 weeks into it and Howe is the other name. I really think we are in turbo bother unless we get a big time manager in now to attract quality in January. Howe isn’t going to do that whatsoever. I reckon this could be spot on which is very worrying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Sure this is in multiple sitcoms. Guy goes on one date with girl out of his league, goes pretty well, prematurely tells everyone they're an item, people ask girl about it, girl gets spooked by the fuss, puts an end to it all.

HWTL Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I hate to say it but we should just get someone in that can put out a half decent team with a balanced formation and Hooe we can scrape enough points this season to survive, its getting more blatant now that the new owners don't have an idea yet what to do and we aren't going to get any big name managers in until we are in a better position in the league and in the setup of the club. Just get someone in then concentrate on a decent DOF to sort all this shit out for next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sima Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Poor management from those in charge to manage this the way it has been done if true. Seems similar to the ‘no red flags’ patter of April 2020 in so much as the lips start to move before things are nowhere near confirmed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 The problem is hope and the UK journalists that broke it likely got the info from the club. Ballague is getting the information from Villarreal, their chairman and likely Emerys agent. Not expecting good news when I wake up lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

christ Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I’d like to add my name to the “what the fuck are the owners doing” crowd now like. To leak all of this and get pied off by Emery is massively amateurish. Really, really embarrassing stuff that’s going to leave a sour taste and have a negative impact because the fallback option is going to enthuse very few.

gazza ladra Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Wait, did NUFC leak info to the English journalists? Is Balagué getting his information directly from villarreal or Emery himself? Do we know any of this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 It's just a bit of bluster from the board of the Spanish club, there all ran like little dictatorships, remember when the chairman of Deportivo used to fuck us over all the time and delay talks because he was having his tea or going for a nap.

mouldy_uk Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Sounds like Staveley may have shot her load too early by telling the local journos that this was done, when it doesn’t look that way (sound familiar - Caulkin + takeover?). I really hope this isn’t the first massive fuck up off the new ownership. The comments comparing us to Man City’s setup are irritating, like they had the perfect setup 3 weeks after being taken over Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
