We're not allowed to spend any money

Whether or not we're 'skint' is a completely moot argument

A squad builder with a clear identity.

Not for me, he's been doing a great job building and rebuilding that squad for years.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

We've never had issues sacking managers before. Don't see why that would have changed.

I want a manager who will be a long term option, who will build a young side with pace and who is hungry to get to the very top.

Have you seen the accounts? We are still probably paying Koeman and Silva off.

And what happens if Frank comes in and cant get a tune out of Iwobi or Davies and has 1 win in 5 when injuries kick in to key players - do we sack him as well?

Its just nonsense to be talking about sacking 9 games in when we are 8th in the table.

Put your knives down and give the fella a chance.

Do FFP/PL sustainability rules around transfers affect staff severance packages? First I’ve heard of that.

I am not having a debate with you about accounting

Why couldn't it work?

We need to find the new man as soon as possible. No one can seriously believe this will work out. I honestly think deep down everyone knows this is a failed experiment.

 

[Magnifico1988]

Not his fault. Lay off him. Been dealt a hard card. Not a advocate of this Rafael out banter at all. Let the bloke sign his players. Got to deal with a squad that has the heart of a pea.

Koeman and SIlva are both employed so we are not paying them off, that's just how it works

Its not banter. Its supporters trying to make their voice heard to an owner and board who made a highly divisive decision. We need the club to get back to its senses. We are on the wrong path and fans don't want to see the club embarrassed.
