Available now/realistic/easy to get.

Favre
Howe
Martinez
Jardim
Low
Valverde
Pirlo
Garcia
Wilder

Out of that list only Valverde seems a worthy appointment. Extremely grim.

Interim until Gallardo for me now.

Klinsmann is available too. So is Fonseca.

And Conte obviously…

I wonder if even a loss to Everton would make Levy consider firing him. I doubt it to be honest. No way Levy fires a manager after 10 PL games regardless of our performances.

I dont see anything nice about him. And normal, its not a positive. At most his just average and irrelevant.

Dunno, I think normal is a term of endearment given someone of his status (on one end of the spectrum would be a guy like Mourinho). Maybe “down-to-Earth” may have been a better descriptor, but I feel like your disagreement with my statement is kinda silly, given I think you knew what I meant.

With Gallardo, can he even speak English? I have always thought to be a manager here or anywhere you need to reall speak the language.

Id go all out for Potter - he has experience of the PL, plays good football, plays football with a pair of bollocks - just look at his team today against Liverscum away. They went 2-0 down and fought back hard. We go 2-0 down? and we end up losing 3-0

At this stage mason is the better option

The funny thing is i would rather eat a field of nettles through my arse than have mason as manager.

That is how mind bogglingly shit Nuno is.

I would rather drag my taint through aids infected glass than have another Nuno game.

“please support us, we know we need to improve” is, by no stretch of the imagination, deflecting blame onto the fans.

Fucking hell.
He’s (imo) essentially saying that if we don’t get behind the team, they won’t change. You can interpret that your way and I’ll interpret it mine and in my opinion, he’s saying that the team couldn’t recover today because the fans weren’t supporting.

What an absolute shit show our club is currently. If someone had been tasked 3 years ago with running the club into the ground they honestly couldn't have done a better job than Levy has.

Nuno is clearly out of his depth and has to go but who has any confidence the next key decision will be a good one? Shambles.

The fans aren't supporting because Nuno can't recover you moron

And there lies the problem. I will always support the club but I am damned if I am going to line the coffers of Enic. My season ticket is paid for but I will no longer spend any of my money on merchandise, beer or food. I will also not do anymore hospitality until Levy is gone from the football side of the business.
I have never shouted for players, managers or owners to be sacked. Booing does not motivate the team and I have never understood why other supporters think that it helps but today with what I saw on the pitch I do not know what else the fans can do.

This is what is so painful is levy makes shit decisions but doesn’t learn from them when making the next one so it’s hard to have any faith right now.

Tough times

I know what you mean by normal. But as a manager for the football club i support i dont care if hes a borderline psychopath as long as he gets the team playing for him in a positive way. Im not going to like the guy because he seems down to earth, which i would never see any real proof of anyway.
