There's a great pool of managers available this summer and watch us get the worst, the absolute worst of the lot.

Strong rumours he’s been sacked.

Leaks coming out about Chelsea’s next manager will have experience at the highest level etc…

If the rumours of us finally going for an established manager instead of trying to pick out the next hatchling are true. It's a great time considering Man Utd, Real Madrid, most likely Liverpool and even possibly Man City are all going to be looking for new managers. You bet we're going to be at the bottom of that list. Anyone with anything about them will think twice now.

Are the likes of Iraola, Alonso and Cesc all deemed too inexperienced now? Watch them go in the complete opposite direction and get the oldest most out of touch manager there is.

Capello anyone?

I love the conundrum BlueCo finds themselves in.

Per Matt Law, they want a top manager who has experience in the Premier League and at the highest level, but no manager with said experience wants to be controlled by tweedle dee and tweedle dumb as sporting directors. 😂

Almost like the real problem is right in front of BlueCo's faces.

😐

Guess work. He 100% has a breakout clause.

No top manager. The answer is no top manager.

That maybe the problem technically we aint out of CL qualification so if there is a clause maybe we have to wait for it to become an impossibility?

I don’t think it makes sense to have an interim manager with hardly any experience & stripped from our sister club to have that hefty of a pay out clause.

I feel like we've been here before.

Briefs about top class managers and then we get Potter and managers from the championship. I'll believe it when I see it but the next manager for them is make or break because they have failed way too many times now and they can't hide from hiring Rosenior as he was their project.

Could be sacked tonight.

The whole ownership doesn't make sense

"collaborative approach"! More like imposition from Egbahli and his SDs.

Held talks with Iraola according to the everso reliable Fabrice Hawkins.

We can't afford his pint of white wine sign-on fee.

If they do pull the trigger, whilst i fully agree with it, part of me is still suspicious of the motivation for them to do so.

Are they going to pull the trigger because the results and performances are simply not good enough and the team as a whole along with most of the individual players are regressing. Fair enough.

or

They are going to pull the plug because he broke ranks and in a round about way called out the players and therefore the strategy and process. If so, they still don't get it.

More the former, I expect.

Iraola, Fabregas, Marco Silva, Felipe Luis, Xabi Alonso, Nagelsmann, Turzic, Hoeness, Glasner.

Anyone else linked yet?

All massive upgardes on Rosenior tbh.

Did you notice he couldn't do eye contact with the interviewer or camera? That says more than his words.

I never wanted him or his middle management bo**ocks, now I'm beginning to feel sorry for him a tad. He is being hung out to dry by those above him who have appointed him and don't have to come out and tell us the rationale of their decision to hire someone who was never going to be able.

I don’t feel sorry for him, his negotiated settlement and an assurance of another crack at the Strasbourg job will be comfort enough. He understands the cut throat side of the business, just like when he walked out on Bristol city after graduating through their academy without signing a contract; that contract signature would have enabled a transfer fee for the team that developed him.

However, he should never of been given the job, let alone a 6 year contract; absolute buffoons running the club

I haven’t coached for a year or so, to knackered with baby. Might start again soon though. Should be qualified enough by the time we’re in League 1

Times reporting he’s gone. Good news and hopefully salvage something from this disastrous season now.

Edited April 22Apr 22 by Sconnie Blue

If whoever comes next is put on a 5 year deal then it means that the project isn't changing.

He’s gone thank f**k!

Club statement out. Macfarlane interim until the end of the season.

Had to be done but still makes me angry. Someone have to pay for these constant, poor decisions. Now!

Had to be done. Terrible coach never should have been given the job in the first place.
