This just in! Thread will be locked without source or at least some detail. Can't have a new thread for every theory...

 

[ever]

personally i think it would be a step down for him if it did happen, ajaz are nothing to what they used to be and looking like they wont be hitting them heights again for a long while

 

[MrWoolley]

Source?

[deselina]

there was too much pressure on ajax with van basten. believe it or not but people outside amsterdam loathe him.

while jol on the other hand is very much loved throughout the country. when papers write more positive about your club, you as a club will do better.

your fans will react to what they read and back you up instead of being instigated by all the negative news.

 

[Azrael]

Christ. How many years now has he been linked with Ajax?

 

[Rumbaldo]

i thought he and cruyff and jol were like mortal enemies and that last time ajax were interested cruyff talked them out of it. maybe Cruyff isnt being consulted these days.

it has to be true though its on his wikipedia page lol

Maarten Cornelis "Martin" Jol (born 16 January 1956) is a Dutch football manager and former midfielder. He is currently the manager of the Dutch football club, Ajax Amsterdam. Prior to joining Ajax in May 09 he managed Hamburg and English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur. Jol played over 400 games during his career which included spells in the Netherlands, Germany, and England, as well as earning three caps with the Dutch national team.[1]

agreed terms with ajax, 3 year deal

 

[spursandbarca]

cruyff backed away from ajax when they appointed van baasten.

the only team Cruyff is consulting is Barca

 

[deselina]

fyi spursandbarca..

he was technical manager for ajax in van basten's first year but decided to resign after a row with van basten about ajax youth policy.

cruyff wanted to fire all youth trainers and start all over but van basten was against it, much of ajax current youth trainers are old ex players.

 

[Rumbaldo]

well never saw that coming! not really sure if its a step backwards or forwards for my favorite dutchman but I hope he cleans up over there!

 

[Scutch]

Well done BMJ. That's Sunderland up shit creek. I think Quinn thought he was in the bag, TBH.

 

[Duzza]

true or not, i'm going to agree with anything deselina says mainly because of the avatar

 

[Rumbaldo]

its on Ajax's website mate its a done deal id say

 

[DoublePivot]

This just in, Martin Jol is hated by the ever-sane Ajax fans. Well he will be within the week.

I don't have a link, but even if I did the Mods wouldn't apologize for their douche nozzleness, as they haven't said sorry to the boards resident Dutch expert yet.

 

[Bob18]

Ajax fans are surprised, but very happy with the appointment of Martin Jol!

 

[chrissivad]

all the best to him

Hope he does well for them.
