JJ.... In your opinion, are we gonna come out of this situation well or badly? And will the end result be within days, weeks or months???

 

[dazherring]

Dont go the same way as Adie Daz!!

Mate I was first to shoot his info down. Harry won't be sacked.

I literally had a call this morning from someone well connected and he said Harry isn't getting a new extended deal and is pissed off big time and said his reps speaking to chelsea about the vacancy there.

He could be off but the guy is superb and I've been fortunate to share some great info recently because of him.

 

[JJetset]

yes / no / kinda

 

[m00]

I wish it was the case unfortunately its not They dont get on Lewis and Harry.

This is great news - Hopefully that means a new manager and a long term plan instead of signing 30+ year olds.

 

[Evs79]

So can be vague- all I wanna know is- when will the dust settle and when the cloud clears will we be smiling????

Roman wont take Harry. They met last year and i know what the clincher for the deal is and it wont happen.(cue Bomber comment here)
Harry or his agents are saying Chelsea to get some competitive tension going but in reality it wont happen.

 

[Tottenham Tom]

I cant and wont post about potential signings or incoming or outgoing players but what i will say is don't lose faith as we will be all good by the start of the season!

Ps does anyone want to buy some deadwood.....and quickly!!

No disrespect to you JJ, I really appreciate the info you pass on, but we're always told 'don't lose faith, all will be good by the the start of the season', yet it never works out that way - just look at the mess we were in at the start of last season.

 

[not_tenth-again]

Ok.........let me see if i get this right

Levy and Harry are not getting on
Levy seemingly wants Harry out but his hands are tied by his boss
His Boss, Mr Lewis, also does not get on with Harry

So people are presuming its a compensation thing......if that is the case then they surely won't be offer Harry a new contract, just an extension option at the end of next season if both parties agree, which right now seems unlikely

So we will have Harry next season, but his heart won't be in at as he knows he is not valued enough for a nice shiny new contract

Sounds like the ingredients for 12 months of treading water to me. Which financially is not ideal, so might as well pay the compensation

Or something big is on the horizon which JJ can't allude to, and Mr Lewis thinks sacking the manager now would be detrimental to that process

I'm not sure this all adds up right now!! Or at least it won't whilst we are missing parts of the equation

Summed up precisely what I was thinking. Big news on the horizon I suspect.

 

[bubble07]

This is a fucking mess. So the Chairman and the owner want to sack Harry but they won't because....


And still no development with Jan. Can we assume that the two are related?

 

[dirtyh]

jj's already said we'll be fine for next season as regards the playing staff so i'm more than happy with that. the harry soap opera can play out in the background but we're at the point where to carry on competing we need to make statements on the pitch rather than the media every 5 minutes.

Like,I say mate the contact is superb and doesn't tell me info that is not good so I would assume Harry is trying to force our hands into offering the larger extended contract.

Could be a clever ploy but could be a nail in the coffin for me.

Harry picks the team?

You should be ok 'don't shoot the messenger'!!

 

[Luka Van der Bale]

Probably something to do with West Ham like that other bloke off the Apprentice.

I know Karen Brady's a tad rough but isn't calling her a bloke a bit of a low blow?

 

[fazza]

This will be a complete and utter disaster, the next year we'd better not expect anything other than staying out of the relegation zoen, How can you keep a manager that the chairmen doesn't want and won't be offering a new deal, Harry knows he'll be off in 12 months now so why is he gonna give a shit what happens to us, if anything he'd be better off losing every game forcing the sack and getting a nice payoff early on in the season then find another position elsewhere.

I thought we were moving forward as a club but this is all a bit micky mouse

 

[Sir Henry]

Adie "merked" himself

He lost his first bollock when he put in on the line for Fabinao

Second for his pre contract of Lukaku

What is he putting on the line this time?

What's he said thats different from any other ITK here ?

 

[felmani26]

This all sounds like a recipe for disaster to me and will undoubtedly end up affecting our season in a negative way!

I understand your frustration, but who the fuck would risk employing Harry if he was obviously malicious enough to do something that deviously dastardly?

 

[Harry_Snatch]

is there a chance this is all a load of bull created by Harry's agent to get him more money and Levy has no intention of sacking him but is refusing to pay that much in a salary?
