Yeah I've no huge issue with him getting the job, just very weird timing and unnecessarily heaps the pressure on today's match when we could have given him another week. Hopefully we win today to take the edge off the nerves.
Blinded by hatred? How can you say there is no 'whiff of a plan', when they have given the job to the person brought in to eventually succeed Will Still. You may not like the plan, but it appears to me that Spors has followed the one he set out in summer to the letter.
True, but hopefully they thought Still would last more than 5 minutes so their succession planning is happening a couple of years earlier than expected and I'd imagine they pictured TE having more experience by the time he was due to take over... It's definitely a gamble based on that, but so is any manager appointment really so I'm happy to give him a go. He's had a good start, let's see how he continues.
I get that VAR is ****, and I certainly understand losing every week is boring, but it wasn't totally rubbish apart from the SR years
An experienced coach could get us promoted, Tonda won't. I noticed you picked Juric, Pellegrino and Redknapp rather than Koeman, Adkins or Poch. Either way SR have gone one better than appointing a manager with no experience of the league we're in to appointing a manager who's never managed before full stop. Inspiring stuff
Not saying it hasn't happened years early as Still was void of personality. But it is still a clear plan. The SR hate crew have completely lost sight of reality though. Tonda has an 80% win rate from 5 games. Anything close to that for the rest of the season and we go up.
Not having a pop but really hoping I can bump this at end of April. I just think, based on nothing, this guy has something maybe an inner steel. Guess we will know either way in the New Year
