The Football.....

[The Central Scrutinizer]

I don't even think Pep Guardiola could turn around this shower of s**t.
I was one of them who wanted Moyes out and I don't regret that.
The board (Sullivan) appointed managers who were out of contract so they didn't have to pay compensation.
The scouting has been bad ie Max Killman for £40 mil.Teams like Fulham,Bournemouth,Palace all seem to buy undiscovered gems.
No one knows unless you have a crystal ball what Moyes would have done if he had stayed on?

If we beat Forest on Tuesday we have a chance but lose and it's hallo Championship.
Whatever I'll still be at the dust bowl next season COY!⚒️

We should never, never, never, have got rid of Moyes.

I could see this coming, what a shitshow.

Does look like relegation form.
14 points from 20 games means they need 22 from the next 18.
If 36 points is enough these days.

A brilliant Gazza goal,but club wise Eddie Gray v Burnley oh my word.

Getting rid of Moyes wasn't the problem it was the board who thought they could get appoint managers on the cheap.
David moyes record in his last five months at West Ham was terrible.Nineteen games in which we won four and conceded forty four goals including 6-0 at home to Arsenal and 5-0 at Chelsea.
Sorry Joe i know i'm a bit raw at the moment but i just cannot stand this Moyes being the messiah b/s.

Based on what's happening at Ewood I'd say this is one of the most dangerous moves a club can make. Rovers lost John Eustace to Derby County as the board wouldn't back him. We appointed Valerien Ismael whose record was on the lines of 13 clubs in 14 years. He was clearly the cheap option. Ismael lost 6 of his first 7 games at Ewood dropping us from playoff contenders to near mid-table. Yes, we came back to miss the playoffs on goal difference.

This season I'm watching the worst squad, playing dreadful football that I've seen at Rovers. Two wins at home this season. On NYD the coach spent the entire match hands in pockets, shoulders hunched over, kicking the ground and looking at his feet. He could not have shown less interested. He's clearly waiting to be paid off, but we don't have the cash.

We play Charlton today, lose and we're probably bottom three at 5.00pm.

I feel for you as it's one of the most hopeless situations a club can get into.

I see Amorim has gone.
I wonder if we can get them to take slot as a replacement

As a City fan, I'd like to offer my considered analysis of the situation:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

You laugh but what if they get someone better

Yeah, like David Moyes perhaps? Or Jose Mourinho? Louis Van Gaal? Ralf Rangnick? Eric Ten Hag? or someone with the (in)famous "DNA"? - Solskjaer?

Perhaps someone should put up a banner with the number of years since they won a league title in their ground.

I have heard the maintenance team are putting a revolving door in the Managers/Coaches door.Fancy Leeds being your last game,given our history,brilliant.Theatre of Dreams,Comedy Club more like.

Sixth in the table and they sack the manager. "Self entitled" doesn't come into it.

The strange thing is that they seemed to have turned a corner and things were improving.
I remember one fan celebrating Moyes getting the sack as they would soon return to greatness. Yeah, entitled.

 

[Dave7]

Just reading that Utd may have to fork out £12M to Amorim PLUS £9M+ to backroom staff.
Nice for some !

I suspect his rather odd press conference rambling about moving on in 18 months and wanting to be the manager and not coach may have reduced the timescale to 18 hours…

Yes, he did seem intent on making his own coffin.

League 1 is crazy right now. 9th down to 21st covered by just 3 points!

Yep! it's mental. MY team are in 19th position. Don't know whether that translates as me having hopes for the play offs or dread of relegation. (Although staying in the league for another season is genuinely what I hoped for at the start).
