I think his position is untenable but IF he signed a long term deal with no release clauses then I think his good work over the last 6 months and the goodwill from Wembley might be enough to get him a 2nd chance with the fans. Not going to happen like
Moving from Sunderland to Stoke makes no ****ing football sense at all. They are going nowhere, we are at least upwardly mobile with crowds twice the size of theirs. Proof, unfortunately that money talks
3 year contract, none of this 1 year rolling deal he was happy with here. Must be on a fair wedge for compo if he get the bullet down there.
Potters delighted to secure the services of Alex Neil 41-year-old Scot has signed an three-year contract New manager was in the stands at Blackburn
If he was offered more money you would probably see him on the ice cream van on the way into the ground, the slimy c unt.
It’s there in an official statement that he signed an improved contract, but there’s some still claiming that Speakman is lying. I hope the players realise he was lying to them when saying he wasn’t wanted and don’t follow the sly bastard.
Left with a nasty taste in the mouth, but i will always be grateful he got us out of that horrible league 1 ****housery. So roll on wednesday onwards and upwards ktf.
So to summise the situation. 4 weeks ago he signed a new improved contract Friday Stoke ask for permission to talk to him (no way they would ask without encouragement from him / his agent) Friday afternoon he ****s off Saturday he watches them while he should have been managing us Sunday it's officially announced. Yet there are posts on here saying it's the clubs fault for not delivering what they promised him? If it upset him that much that in 4 weeks we didn't deliver these magical promises why didn't he resign?
If we ever find out how much more Stoke are paying him, then we'll know the going rate for a Scottish soul. At least the Barcodes sold their soul for boat loads of dirty Saudi money. I hope AN can look in the mirror and convince himself the money was compensation enough for a binned reputation.
That's the interesting bit I guess. A bump in his 12 month rolling but not the longer deal he wanted and felt valued for. Guess stoke feel he is value for the 3 year, out club didn't.. But aye gone now so move on.
Because he’s a sly twàt. If he came out out and said they offered massive money and he couldn’t turn it down I’d have some respect for being truthful. But the Arsehole still should’ve waited till today.
Doesn't sound like that to, he signed a contract 4 weeks ago, and they offered him even more when he said he wanted to leave on friday
Very terse statement, no thanks or recognition for the promotion, exactly the way it should be after the underhanded way Neil left on Friday Well done SAFC, it looks like we have found our spine. .
Yeah a bump on his 12 month one. As stated yday. But not the longer deal he wanted and felt valued for. Shoudlnt take stoke to offer terms for speakman to make a counter offer.
