Agree with you Apone. We were down with MoN, no doubt about it. Players looked so disinterested a Sunday league team could have pulled a result against us. And Forza, RDM only wants a team with a European portfolio because that will mean he will have good players at his disposal which will mask his inadequacies in management. I don't rate him at all. He got lucky winning the CL, and I could have with those players. The only reason AVB didn't do so well was he was trying to get rid of the Old Guard of Lamps, Terry, Cashley etc, and player power won out - much like it did with us. Why hasn't a CL winning coach been snapped up already? Because he wants a team where he can basically come in, and not do much and still claim credit. MoN is not the answer, neither is Bally. I like him, and dont want him to fail. If he did, we'd lose a good servant to this club who we benefit more from than have him sitting in the hot chair.
Poyet would be terrible, hes also a whinging moaning manager that I cant stand, his voice is very grating as well but he is untested in the PL and christ if we get another untested manager in we certainly deserve to be relegated. We need survival again this season, that is all.
