Golac's Cunning Stunts

This was an excellent summary until you then used it to make a case for the umbrella man. Crazy.

Yes we can judge them on their extremely poor response to the situation. I have no faith in them but you carry on and enjoy your half term break too.

Nah i'm not saying they were weak for letting him go. I'm saying that they they need to man up now. The vultures are circling and I'm seeing nothing being done to discourage them in the slightest.

lol keep taking the pills sunshine. We already look weak and nothing that has happened today has made us look any stronger. Get real about KL ploughing her own money in. It's a business for god's sake not something she is doing out of kindness. The arguments you use about Shaw (he is still here, as far as we know no bid has been accepted) were the exact same ones being used about MP 24 hours ago. Your point about what Les Reed saying nobody has permission to talk to our players? In that same interview he goes on and on about how him and Pichettino are cool, no issues blah blah blah

The board come over as weak. They don't inspire any confidence. The statement today should at least have drawn a line in the sand along the lines of "If anyone thinks our players are an easy target, you have another think coming" But all we get is wishy washy rubbish. And I love that they admit they are only now just beginning to look for a replacement. Seems pretty clueless to me.

Ah nobody told me they sold decent products on Amazon. In that case overwhelmed. Sign me up.

Swansea got £7mill in compensation when Rodgers went. If we offered him a good deal and he used it to get a better one at spurs then more fool us

ok not crap, just underwhelming

so im guessing that pic of the argie at their training ground wasn't a photoshop then?

Ah I see thanks guys - informative

I don't understand betting. How can they suspend their books on it and how would someone know if they have? Sorry if this is a stupid question

brendan rodgers and i think swansea got £7mill for it much better than we got for the argie

He also tweeted this I genuinely dont mind if players/managers move on to what they perceive as better things but dont mug fans off along the way with lies

Fair enough Toon. They all look like very disappointing alternatives at the moment that's all.

Fantastic player, not sure about his coaching credentials

Why would Rosler be good but Moyes only acceptable? And Lambert and Mackay would be acceptable.. really? How do you rate their chances of keeping hold of our want away talent when they have their heads turned?

But thats the point. It shouldn't be a panic appointment. We all knew the argie was leaving so surely the board did weeks ago? So surely they have already done their homework and sounded out the replacements. Please don't tell me this has come as a shock to them? If we dally around now, it will be a vote of no confidence from the players no doubt about it

Any news on Adam Lallana though?

How naive. In the meantime, half the first team will be gone. We need to move swiftly to stop this happening. Surely the board has known for some time that we might be in need of a new manager and has already sounded guys like this out? But no... let's have a fu-ckin twitter converstaion about it

Oh right, shall we wait for him to see how "our" players perform in the WC then? In the mean time we stand a fair chance of getting ripped apart. The board need to issue a hands off statement now to all the vultures circling. And fu-ck some guy issuing quotes on Twitter. We need serious action from the board now.

Sherwood and mclaren would both be an embarrassment Can't believe we are already considering stooping that low.

Have to admit I don't know too much about him. WHy would he be such a great appointment? I know Basel beat Chelski twice in the CL and that is an achievement, but what else makes you so keen? (Honest question - not a saracastic one)

Personally feel that after pochettino, having mcclaren would be like going back to the dark ages. Really would not welcome him at the club.

Unbelievable Jeff

Ha there's the first problem then. McClaren and well managed don't seem to go together too well. Definitely a championship team even if it was well managed anyway.
