    Yep, I’m sick to death
    Concerned massively with the direction KLD is taking us

    Thanks for the comments, and that may be possible, but still at the hypothetical stage re KLD leaving. However , it doesn't address the question I was asking

    That's exactly the problem I'm having. I cant think of anyone, hence my question.

    I don't think your question can be answered till the ownership is fully resolved and show commitment beyond this season.

    There is clearly good one around, but ours appears to be more front and centre of things than them.

    Just thought of another 1, Mark Noble at West ham

    WTF apart from Speakman thought Beale, Dodds, Proctor were an upgrade on Tony Mowbray?

    Utter charlatan appointing mates and other charlatans. He really has to go back to sticking to academy level along with Dodds and proctor or leave - has got promoted way above his capabilities - junior level the lot of them imo.

    I wasn't aware that KLD was that close to selling up. Can we set that to one side, just for the purpose of this discussion. Who do we think 8s out there that could do a better job and is realistic. I'll be honest here, I have no idea.

    He hasn't been in that job very long has he? I'm sure he was playing last season. Ok not a lot but I seem to remember his goodbye on the pitch.

    Not my wheel house either mate. I do feel the balance of power needs to shift though. The head coach needs to have more say than they currently do. They shouldn't have to listen to KS and have Proctor and Dodds forced upon them (due to KS) feeling they have amazing potential and speak the same way he does. It's a massive issue.

    I only remembered him as he took a crate of beers in the dressing room when they won that European cup final :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    No, I don't think he played last season. When they won the Europa League thing he wasn't part of the squad but they gave him his shirt to celebrate in because the players all love him. He's Mr West Ham though. I can see him getting the manager's job there at some point.

    Any decent coach wouldn't work under those constraints, ah hang on, that might explain a lot... lol

    Yes they would and yes they do. Happens throughout football and at most successful teams.

    That is so obvious it's staring us all in the face now - speakman is a massive issue and the dodds/Proctor unsackable/immovable objects must be ruling out about 95% of possible head coach options.

    Honestly when you think about it how bizarre is it? They are hardly Pirlo and Pep ffs.
