While this is obviously a massive opportunity for a manager, he probably knew he wasn't experienced enough. And if it doesn't go well, it could set his career back.

Enough will forgive and push to back of mind the failure vs Paris and not getting CL football next season (if that happens) IF, and it is a huge if, we beat Port Vale, get past West Ham or Leeds in the semi and then beat City or Liverpool in the final.

And if he gets us knocked out By port vale for picking a weekend team, so long as our keeper does not mess up, will replace the PSG debacle as his biggest failure.
March 12Mar 12 On other matters Lazio fans are emptying their stadium in protest against the ownership.2k only for a league match today. Now that's action.How about us?
March 12Mar 12 Yeah that's why there's only a handful of managers who have (repeatedly) won the top prizes in football.f**king idiots. These guys genuinely believe they are smarter and better than everyone else in the game.

They don't represent the real fans.I agree, but they are the club's money base. We're in an era where fake fans and perceptions have more sway than actual match-going members, and we have an ownership who are vested in keeping it that way.

March 12Mar 12 So they are saying we don’t have a good manager and it doesn’t matter.All those idiots in the relegation zone sacking there managers, I mean why even have one?We’re screwed. Edited March 12Mar 12 by C3blue

March 14Mar 14 Although supporting a sports team is obviously more complex than the example I'm about to give, there still has to be an element of entertainment or people will just switch off.If I was watching a tv series and every episode was boring, the actors were sh*t and not believable in their roles, and the show runners kept coming out on social media telling people that these are the best young actors in the world and we need to shut up and keep watching because it'll get good in a few seasons - I'd stop watching.Apart from the blind tribalism of it being my team, I have no other reason to keep watching each week.
