Sounds like Conte goes and Levy as manager
We need to unite before we are no more

2021’s managerial search was when I lost all faith in Levy. Everything else he’s done - whilst often very frustrating - I could at least understand to some extent. The decision to hire Nuno - after apparently pursuing Gattuso (!!) was totally inexplicable, and was actually quite un-Levy-like in many ways. Hiring Conte kept me happy for a bit, but in terms of broad faith in Levy to make half-way ambitious and sensible decisions for the club, Nuno was game over for me. It just made zero sense.

Sadly I think conte is being lined up by levy to come to a mutual termination after tonight if we lose.
Then Poch will be brought back in after the Arsenal game where mason will be caretaker.

I was going to say this. Being very vocally pro-Conte could be as powerful as being anti-Levy. It’s more positive too.
You really do have to be able to see a bigger picture though to be singing your manager’s name throughout a game as Eric Dier is shinning one out for a corner, Hojbjerg’s smashing a pass straight out of play and your team are sleepwalking to a 2-0 deficit again. COYS!
I’m getting to the end of my tether with the club. I don’t mind supporting a team not doing that well, but I can’t support a corrupt board who are basically stealing off the fans. That I will never support. I live in south london these days and have been going to some Wimbledon games and will just continue to do that until levy leaves the club quite frankly

In some ways the NLD is the best and worst timing for Levy/ENIC, should we win they'll get let off again, should we lose I can see an uprising not seen before, that is the junction we're heading towards, they're taking a big chance not backing Conte nor spending big before then. I guess their thinking in the losing scenario they can turn our attentions to the new manager gaining renewed optimism whilst letting them off the hook for umptenth time... rinse repeat
2nd biggest, ENIC is the biggest

I mean I disagree and have stated why but it would be nice as one of the few people to defend him if you backed it up with a reason?
It's a bit of a snowball at the moment so perspective from the other side can be helpful.

It certainly seems like this is the case, im just surprised Conte is still here if it’s really got to this point. Although as you’ve mentioned before there are issues behind the scenes this seems like it’s escalated very quickly in the last few days.

But is he the biggest issue?
Right now, the two biggest issue are Conte and Levy. Levy has a mixed reaction from fans since he took over. However, Chelsea fans don't remember Conte to fondly especially after he threw his toys out of the pram on signings. These two clowns will never give up their stance. If FP leaves, then I believe it's all Levy.
For me, the only person we can trust is FP cos his job is overseeing the football element, whilst balancing the needs of the club and the manager.

Ralf Rangnick's philosophy of football and Antonio Conte's philosophy of football couldn't be any more different LOL

Go on Herc!
So many times Levy has held us back, but incredibly, non-sensically, he has his little army who continue to eat his shit for fun. They decide that football and Spurs shouldn’t matter anyway, or at least we’re run sustainably. He’s better than Sugar you know- like there was no history before him?!
Which has fkall to do with that Lilly white shirt, a Hoddle volley, a slalom run by Gazza or an arrowed finish by Kane.
Problem is, even I think of Conte first when he sets up our team like he did v Villa, when we were lucky to get nil. Not Levy. To Dare is to do seems to be lost on both of them.
If Kulu doesn’t make it, tonight, who can see where the creativity is going to come from?
I hate the idea of having to start again though, especially with Poch. With the root of the problem standing there grinning alongside him.

Sounds like Conte leaving and letting it all unfold is the best way to get Levy out.

They are and I'm not suggesting Ragnick would be the right man for the job but if he did get it and got rid of Conte straight away at least that would have been because he/we had a clear strategy and philosophy to follow, as opposed to this mix and match bullshit we've been witnessing for 20 years.

You can't expect people to make a stand when they don't know the details of what they're making a stand on. Surely you must be able to understand how dangerous it would be if people did that in any aspect of life?

However, Ragnick isn’t going to be manager so style / philosophy is down to conte.
Ragnick is able to structure a club top to bottom, set up proper scouting networks, identify players early and would be able to work in this capacity to ensure we have a strategy / plan.

Him walking though is not for the best. I'd rather from a greater good perspective he was fired, I suspect it will be gardening leave though until his contract was up.

Half expecting to see Poch sitting in the crowd tonight. We've seen it so many times before with Levy. I've lost count of the managers we've had under Levy. The penny needs to drop with the fans that it's Levy who is the problem. I hope supporters become very vociferous against him. Make him squirm and really put him in the spotlight.

Ordinarily I’d understand why some people are turned off the idea of protest with anything concrete for why, despite the noises intimating why. I’d understand it because what would be the point, it probably wouldn’t pressure ENIC to sell up. However, those noises include indications of a power struggle whereby Joe Lewis’s daughter seems to want to break this cycle that Daniel Levy keeps perpetuating of false/broken promises to managers and keeping our club in limbo - allergic to core football success (trophies), driven only by commercial success. For that reason, there might be a tangible success that comes from our voices being heard and I would therefore urge anyone going to Palace today to join in on the #LevyOut protest. Please. We’re all fucking fed up with the most barren spell of winning in our club’s history because of one man’s footballing short sightedness.

I hate that so many in our fanbase mock those who want to make a difference.
We saw it last year and it was really distasteful.
