    We can't afford another situation like the reaction to Beale. It was embarrassing.

    Most football supporters aren't that stupid ...

    ... and aren't the same as they are on social media in my experience.

    If England play attacking football against Slovenia, and win 5-0, yesterday will be totally forgotten.

    People ebb and flow like the tide depending on the current conditions ...

    That was based on his excellent season 22/23. Last season he got relegated and is apparently on the verge of the sack. Reports are that he’ll resign today as they’ve lined up their next coach. Personally don’t think we’ll pay any compensation at all.

    Are you sure because we just watched it happen with Beale?

    We’re a very fickle breed, he comes in we sign 3 or 4 what’s seen as good players and the tide turns everyone starts looking forward to the friendlies/season

    The last bloke who came from Lorient was alright.



    I hope he is more Kone mark 1 rather than second season’s mark 2.

    Told you already mate there’s only two ways this goes. He goes on a stormer and takes us to the PL or he’s sacked by Christmas there’s no in between.

    Since he’s only had two seasons one very good and one very bad I’m not gonna fully judge him especially with the quality that was brought in to replace who he lost which wasn’t near the quality of the ones he lost.

    I 100% get the apprehension I’m in the same boat but I’m a little more open to it.

    that said he HAS to bring someone in. He can’t come in alone. Also needs backed in the window.

    let’s hope he makes Ba the next Mbappe

    He has resigned so unless the talks between him and club put something in then he will be free with no compo

    Maric just posted a picture on Instagram of him as a kid wearing a Bayern top and added it to his Bayern posts. Could be wrong but think we can rule him out to be honest.

    Harsh way to get relegated like, it was because Metz scored one more goal in their two games with each other


    I could be wrong, but sure the african nations they take a hit

    It was never likely once we went after Still

    Many years ago I did a presentation course, culminating in a power point presentation at the end., to demonstrate your learnings , or not. I did my presentation on Stephen Kings earlier novels and their similarity with horror classics. Bearing in mind the horror show that Beale was in charge of, I would like to hoy my cap into the ring for the vacant position of head coach

    I would suggest that the agreement will be that we pay Le Bris a larger than normal signing on fee to compensate him for the pay off he will be foregoing by resigning rather than waiting to be sacked. I think those will have been the negotiations between the three parties.

    We did a presentation at uni as part of our computer science course and some funny bugger put a duck quack sound between every slide transition, then to make things worse I accident skipped a few slides and had to go back.. I don’t think I’d get the job

    Was thinking the exact same thing. Works for all parties. Lorient happy he goes without a pay off, we’re happy to not pay compensation, Le Bris happy with a bumper signing on fee and staying in a job.

    Really think it’s him at this point and I’m going to make a conscious effort to be positive about the situation. Needs the fans onside. Just hope he’s allowed an assistant so he’s not here on his own.

    Yes, even with Beale the reaction on forums was ten times more extreme than reality imo.

    Has it actually been reported anywhere that we cast him aside like a soggy chip when Still became available? Or is that just something we are accepting from nowhere?

    I'm sorry to say marra,but the mere mention of a power point presentation rules you out! If you have a mole on your cheek,you're doubly ****ed.
