frankpingel Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 A thumbs up from me, he talks well and isn't an embarrassing mess so that's a start. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 He wasn’t on my “absolutely don’t want” list with the likes of Lampard, Gerrard, Martinez, and Terry, so that’ll do for me. Probably the most middling appointment we could’ve made from the linked names. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
christ Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 I wonder what holiday allowance he negotiated? Bruce was on two day weeks by the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 2 minutes ago, Stifler said: He’s not someone who was on my list at all, and is someone I have doubt about because I think he can be a bit naive tactically sometimes. In saying this I’ll give him a chance. Even though it went wrong in the end at Bournemouth, he did fantastic into making them what they are today. You could say that he suffered from a lack of investment, things maybe went stale, and they certainly hit the ceiling for the club. Fuck, this means Ritchie is never fucking leaving. Who sold Ritchie to us like? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ameritoon Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Same as others have said, not exactly my ideal appointment, but he's clearly got something about him and it's just nice to have a real manager again. Hope he can pull us out of the shit and we can have a fun summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a shame, mind had Howe been No1 I’d have wondered about their ambition not to try for other targets first. Suppose you can’t please all, you can even please both sides of me I'm just glad we're getting a young manager who is ambitious, aye you can't please all, but I'm rather pleased Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Would have taken him from the start, and happy to get behind him now. He may unfortunately need more time than he has to wake the players from the slumber Bruce has put them in but we shall see. There's certainly more to work with from them than what's being shown. First target is obviously to just at least be within a few points of safety by the time we can spend some money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGuv Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 He’s 43 and has managed 545 games. He’s as ready as he’ll ever be. We talked about poaching Rodgers from Leicester. What if Howe becomes our Rodgers and builds something? I’m really excited for this. Please please just keep us up and watch us rocket. This could be a Keegan era for the 2020s.

Novocastrian Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) Slightly disappointed after the euphoria of the takeover but keen to see him take the reins and see what he can do. Also put £15 on at 20-1 so that will be a nice sweetener going into the weekend. Edited November 4, 2021 by Novocastrian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackandWhite Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 He obviously done a miraculous job at Bournemouth, but overspending on primma donnas brought them back down to the championship. I am not sure how much of that was down to Howe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Happy with this, anything is a step up from Bruce. Seen a lot of his coaching videos and its clear he has a style and an actual plan. Lets hope it works out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Fuck it, I wasn't overly enthusiastic after the Emery comedown, but over the moon now to get someone in. Bloke just has to keep us up this year and he'll be a hero. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzaschicken Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Well I think this is right for where we are at. Howe in, emery would have been amazing but now this is the start of the new era. The first official appointment by the new owners. Whatever happens happens we are looking like we are going to go down but who knows theres 29 games time to get behind the club as the future is now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
