Ex-Manager Thread

[Saint Helen]

We are only positive because we do not realise just how desperate things really are. Goodness knows where we will get our next manager from after all who would want to manage a club that can't keep it's manager or players every season and then there is the probability that we will run out of luck with the new signings after we flog half our team this summer and end up getting relegated and then Kat will flog us off to some dodgy hedge fund who really will asset strip us and before you ****ing know it we will be playing bloody derbies with Pompey every year in Division 2. Not that I am moaning of course but my Pompey friends say Saints will flog anything if there is a bob in it for them. Then there is the stadium. We never should have (should of if your ill educated) moved from the Dell as we have lost all of our atmosphere at games and lets be honest half our players are crap and the other half are even worse and look at the scandalous price of season tickets. I could have bought a flat in London for what I have paid in ticket prices over the years and to top it all we have won sod all but a tin pot trophy and a single FA Cup. We have no ambition even Lawrie Mac buggered off because we lacked ambition so no surprise that Ron has walked then is it. We even drained Le God of any ambition and he just hung around with us when he could have been a superstar and played for England if he had been a Man U reserve. Then there are the fans who moan and boo their own players and **** off well before the game is over and never sing proper songs only anti Pompey rubbish. We need a proper club, proper players, a proper team and a proper manager. We'll never achieve anything people just see us little family club always happy to sell the family silver. We once had a proper academy but that has gone to pot. Then there is this website full of a bunch of bloody ageists who are always telling me I am a miserable old sod and as for the women who post on here you get the feeling they would cut your balls of if they had half a chance - a right pair - a Taff and a Cork Head not that I would ever insult anybody or be anything but positive.

I think you had a bit too much punctuation in there, Godders. Rants don't have good grammar...

 

[----HistoryRepeating----]

How the hell did Godders make it through our perennial relegation struggles. Starting seasons with no win in ten, staying in the bottom three for the whole season, staying up on the last day, holding the radio in shaking hands praying for some divine intervention. Fast forward to the money troubles & relegations with points deductions, not knowing if the club would survive. These are good times, the board may well make the odd mistake, but cast your mind back a bit if today is really troubling you.

Godders is battle hardened...that moany old timer in the corner of the trench who survives everything (and others go over the top to escape him).

 

[San Tejón]

So, if/when Koeman returns, to finalise paperwork, should we need to sign it off, can we send that person on holiday?

 

[fran-MLs little camera]

I think Les and Kreuger are planning a joint holiday in Ibiza.

 

[Lovelocum]

I say put him on gardening leave, forget about him for the time being. Get on with finding a new manager and maybe release him a few days before the start of the season.

Whatever he thinks, his reputation is taking a pounding. And that's just the mirror link.......

 

[fran-MLs little camera]

Once lost, you can never regain your reputation. Everyone knows him for the shyster he is. .

FFS I was being ironic. The guy said he liked us for we were all positive and I don't like to be taken for granted. Who knows I might start being nice tomorrow and that will confuse you all.

 

[----HistoryRepeating----]

If that's the effort you submit for irony, just imagine what you could achieve with positive thinking.

Tbf, St.G it would make a welcome change. I've had to stay cheerful in the face of the Queen's 90th birthday. Don't begrudge the old girl her age. It's the palaver I can't take.

I'm convinced she's waiting for Charles to die first. Saving the house of Windsor embarrassment for generations to come...

I think she fears that if he became King the first thing he would do is wind up the monarchy, retire to a castle of choice and shut the door.

At least I can dream anyway.

Now I'll be accused of going off-topic again. You wait.

So that's Charles and Koeman on gardening leave then....

If you start doing that we will all assume your missus has hacked your account.

 

[St. Luigi Scrosoppi]

I think we should ask that Simon Cowell to organise a Royalty's Got Talent competition and we can decide who should be the next monarch. Bugger the constitution. Oh wait a minute isn't that what the referendum is about but has been hijacked by racism?

 

[Le Tissier's Laces]

When's the berk back from holiday?

 

[Schrodinger's Cat]

Steady on LTL, that looked disturbingly like an on-topic post.

There is no guarantee he can get the contract sorted prior to his next holiday though
