Thomas Frank



Seems like too nice a guy to propel them to domestic glory. He might win a cup, but he'll be fired within two seasons where they will once again go for a big-name manager, maybe get Klopp in once he's been away for long enough to refresh.

Thats troubling...i had no idea the list was so long. 😀

I thought perhaps some of those surnames might appear to be firstnames due to the trend of using surnames as firstnames, but nope.

A lad in my year at school was called Ferguson Davies so… Duncan Ferguson too (and Dave Thomas). Untrustworthy pair. ;)
 

Mate of mine works at Spurs, said that entire first day he was going around introducing himself to everyone at the club, from cleaners through to the players, asking about them, saying hello etc. My mate said there's not been one Spurs manager who would do that previously when he's been working there.

Maybe I'm a miserable person and this certianly reflects terribly on me, but my reaction was that's small time as owt! Type of thing that works at Brentford but not a club like Spurs. I feel (perhaps wrongly!) you need a bit of arrogence and presence at top clubs. Obviously shows he's a nice bloke though.

Think Lampard did similar at Everton , unlike the FSW who’d gone before but ultimately it didn’t do that frank any good either .

Being nice to people is small time? Heard it all now.

Genuine question - do you have a brain injury?
