Surely there’s no way any manager in a job would go near us with a barge pole? Why would you leave gainful employment for an absolute cesspit of toxicity that will be the club next year with how things are going?

It’s going to be Rodgers and we all know it because it’s a free paycheque and he doesn’t give a fuck.

Won’t even be Mason now as he’ll be as relieved as us once the season is over and will want to get out before this club drains him like that machine in Monsters’ Inc.

Once again, SC excels itself in coping with a crisis with gallows humour, information, and mild hysteria. What a place!

So it falls upon the old guy to bring some context and hope to the situation. Which Is this. In the 22 years of Levy, there have been 16 changes of the person in charge of first team matters. So if this one upsets you, don’t despair, there’ll be another one along soon.

How am I doing so far?

And we must remember that that the three most ‘successful’ managers we’ve had were all appointments that were somewhat accidental. Jol when Santini walked out, Redknapp when Ramos failed, and Pochettino when van Gaal turned us down.

If anyone wants to discuss this further, you can find me once the bubbles stop surfacing by looking for a handful of straws floating on the water.

Postecoglou has been my guy all along, but honestly now beginning to question if we have the pull to get him?

Never would have thought that before, but christ we’re unattractive at the moment.
my concern is Scotland and even lesser leagues. Netherlands is vastly higher standard to be succesful with that style of football in. How did celtic get on in europe this year? were they embarrassed s they have been on other occasions or did they hold their own.

Nothings certain with Tottenham . What if I was to say he wanted to sell the big boys to recreate the next team and levy said no ! Unfourtanlty if someone wants to come here it doesn’t mean they will always come . Visions have to align . Levy’s seems to have a different vision to every manager out there currently.

We shouldn’t be relying on happy accidents. The club should have a proper plan which they clearly don’t. That’s what’s more infuriating than specifically losing out on Slot.

I thought Slot would be the Poch of van Gaal when JN turned us down though

Don't get the Postecoglu love in on here tbh. 58 and never managed a top club in a top league.

Slot ticked all the boxes. Have to go all out for nagelsmann or de zerbi now or anyone else will feel a bit meh

Interesting. Levy turning down the idea of selling Kane and Son. That in itself shows he is shook by the fans view of him. Until he actually backs a manager 100% in their vision it doesn’t really matter who we appoint, does it?

Thing is, if a new manager comes in and he doesn't have an established pedigree. Would you allow him to sell, arguably, our best players (and not to mention our most lucrative earners)?

How much would you trust a new guy in matters of this magnitude? It might be the right thing to do but would you trust someone that much immediately? There has to be some give and take. Managers do need to earn trust because manuveurs like that can backfire massively.

That said, we need to be sceptical of everything we hear. This is all hypothetical.

Meh on Amorim for me.

Not gonna lie barring JN everyone else is a lesser option now IMO. Doesn't mean someone else won't work out and I will back whoever it turns out to be, but I'm now going to be underwhelmed.
Big Ange would be vaguely exciting although not on Slot or JN levels but beyond that Amorim is very much meh and same 3-4-3 fairly pragmatic no matter what others try and say and then beyond that they’re all very underwhelming now.

Sigh 😔

Literally we can’t ever have anything nice.

Slot was the one and I really thought we would get it done 😢

This is why we panic and don’t get our hopes up because under Levy more often that not we go round it circles with no plan and end up a mess over and over and over again.

Big Ange or JN otherwise next season will be a huge mess.

the problem is we have been upset and unhappy with our style since Poch left and that's nearly as long as he was here now as our longest serving manager in that period. Another 18 months or even 6 of this absolute shyte defence first football with no defence to put first is time to give up on it all and stop caring about club football.

Has worked with Munn, plays high possession high intensity very pepesque football and is a likeable character.

Next best option / fit remaining mate.

the problem is Postecoglu would probably turn us down too. even a PE teacher of a high school would likely avoid this mess

Fucking hell. We can't even get a manager from Feyenoord. This club is absolutely rotten to the core. I hope Kane fucks off - he deserves better, and then Levy can try and justify his position when we have Neil Warnock in charge whilst fighting relegation.

My dad died suddenly yesterday and I am in bits. This news just pushes me further into a spiral.
Sorry to hear about your dad mate

Now we're in trouble, everyone will know they're back up option after how public Slot chase was.
We'll be after desperate options now. Starting to imagine Rodgers.
