Ronald Koeman Sacked

[Han]

What a shame. He did well on first season, losing a striker like Lukaku is hard to replace, so many new players to gel, tough fixture. Expect a bad start but not so bad. I hope we are not curse with second season syndrome.

We were that's why he got sacked.

Ancelotti is a world class manager. Very few of them in world football. It's madness to turn our noses up imo.

I think hes brilliant, however doesn't coach per se and also doesn't play kids....

 

[faddy the blue]

Agree with the first few points mate. But as for Moyes can't see it just cant. And I'm at a loss who I said this weeks ago I don't know who the answer is

Not even Pep Guardiola or Jose Mourinho can get a team bossing with three no 10s, a yound DCL, Martina at RB, 33 and 35 year old CBs and an aging LB for who there is no replacement.

Horror time this

Unsworth has earned the right to at least try for a few games.

Who’s next for us to welcome with a fanfare, build up after a good first season then hound out the club when progress stalls for a few months?

Please, relegation come to us soon. Rid us of the Tyne infestation. Send them back to NFL and WWE.

I do have my concerns in that regard, Mikey, aye.

He too had a world-class striker at Dortmund that got him out of trouble.

Just not keen on going with Dyche, Allardyce or *gulp* (if Bill has his way) Moyes!

Ideally, Unsworth gives a great account of himself and you just never know.

Unsworth then Loew

Trust me babe, it'll be bootylicious

Come home Arteta!

You punched the air when he got sacked mate, don't even deny it

If you were any more Geordie you'd be going topless in winter

Damn the board didn't mess about on this, I was fully expecting him to remain until November at least.

Well done Farhad for having the balls to get rid when needed and sticking true to the "vote of confidence" being the death knells for a manager

 

[Zeke]

I hope they managed to get Martina thrown in with Ronko???

 

[mezzrow]

And so the adventure continues. Would that our future be filled with enough of God's grace to give us an Ancelotti at a time like this. Prolly not, but it's good to dream, innit?

 

[blue4eva77]

For all those who diss the Mosh. He's shown twice now that he won't accept managers who underperform. Now he just needs to show us he can appoint a good one....

and start spending some actual coin instead of using incoming funds
and getting a spade in the ground for the new stadium
and stop dialing Jim Whites number on any future deadline day.

 

[Eggs]

But that's not the sort of mid-season risk we can afford to take. We need someone who can come in, accept what they have for a few months, do a full review for the Board about playing resources and get us playing a discernible style. For me he's EXACTLY what is needed.

...he would only come here on a lengthy contract and on top dollar. He would also have to work with what he’s got and have a restricted spend envelope in January. You might well be right but i’d searching for a manager with real drive and ambition who has built a side demonstrating real competency in the transfer market.

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

Geordies.

Sadly we do appear to be heading that way.
See the recent ‘sportpesa scandal’ as further evidence of the slide into hyper sensitivity.
