Love Rosie as a bloke. Can’t stand the type of football he and many others insist on putting fans through in the modern day. There is only one Pep, everyone else needs to form their own identity
I hope he’s a success, I’m very glad we have moved away from the pattern championship clubs have started to go down through hiring managers intending on playing the Pep way
Twt if it proves the correct decision, but there's a distinct lack of class and grace from some. It's as if they want him to fail to prove their own subjective opinion right. Even if you're glad he's gone doesn't prevent you wishing him well for the future. Bit sad really.
It was a light-hearted remark but Strasbourg are Chelsea’s sister club, whatever that means. He might not want it but you’d have thought he’d be in the mix if he’s doing well and if Chelsea are looking for someone.
Thanks. I don’t agree with you. But as it’s been done to death already, I’m not going over that ground again. EDIT: PLT said it well for me, I hadn’t read his post when I replied.
I really enjoyed the football last season, a handful of matches excepted. We are all different I guess!
Getting us relegated pitifully, and getting dicked 8-0 had a lot to do with that, plus his attitude in the media was toxic. Didn't stop me wishing him well when he finally left though.
I think it's a very smart move for / by him. It's a great chance for him to build his experience and reputation, and with almost guaranteed inflow of talent for him to work with. Maybe a pity things didn't happen the other way round, meaning pity he didn't get this gig first, then come to us with a couple of seasons under his belt.
I'm sure every manager that ever was encourages their players to be brave. Apart from maybe Terry D circa 1992-96 and Grunt McCunt in the latter part of the 19/20 season, obvs. Feb 21, 2024 Still holding that grudge this year about a league winning manager of hull city what a ****
He did come across a grunting **** in most of his interviews, treating fans and media with contempt. And he did take us on a slide comparable with Terry D. And guess what, he's ended up at a similar level. If you consider winning a division we should never have been relegated to a success and consider taking a club from a relegation scrap to mid table then 7th a failure, then you have a different idea of success to me. But then your idea of debate boils down to chucking insults at others with no substance, so you do you.
There's nothing hypocritical about stating that if I can wish McCann well for the future, then others can afford the same grace to someone far more successful in his time at the club both as player and manager. You chucking insults isn't gonna change that.
If he hadn't come across a ****, I wouldn't have called him out for it. Can see why you felt some sort of affiliation to him though.
I haven't called him that for years. You dragged up a post from years ago. Whether he's worked on his media skills since I've absolutely no idea, but suspect he's had to. But that's what you do isn't it? Manufacture an argument if you can't win.
