If the club has any sense it'll go for an older, experienced manager who can just steady the ship for the rest of the season (if their 1st choice isn't going to be available until then). Someone with the nous to get the players onside again, play to their strengths and get the club looking an attractive proposition again.
No more former players! Not Bruce. Or Keane. Or Robson, Ince, Hughes, Rooney, or, I dunno, Neil Webb. None of them. Zilch. Fuck em. Someone who's been around the block and can sort this mess out, then is happy to walk away leaving a much happier dressing room for whoever it is coming in next year.

If Ten Hag is only available next summer then fine but get everything ready for him over the next 6 months so he hits the ground running.
As for the interim I could give a fuck but it has to be just that(an interim)

Poch seems like the early favourite. Which is the single most underwhelming appointment we could make. So, welcome Mauricio, I guess.

I'll nail my colours to the mast now, I'm a firm no to Poch.
But if it is going to be him them might as well try to see the positives. Plays good football. Not afraid to go with youth. Knows the Premier League. Is due a big trophy? (clutching at straws there).

Rage against him has passed and now I'm just sad that it ended so bitterly. There was really no need for it to get to the stage where fans were booing him off when he went over to thank them. He could've walked, sure but ultimately the witless fucks continuing to show disdain for how to run the footballing side of the club are the ones really to blame.
They should've had more foresight not to appoint him permanently in the first place or to "mutually terminate" this relationship much sooner meaning fans still had an overwhelmingly positive opinion of him. They just allowed a clearly out of his depth manager to hang himself instead of making a decision.

Appoint anyone who’ll play Mata, Donny and Bruno. In short, appoint me, and enjoy those sexy sexy triangles!

The fact he’s been hung out to dry and booed, for me at least, leaves a bitter taste. I understand the fans who did it, but Jesus, we barely booed Van Gaal, who had so much less credit in the bank than Ole. |

The club/glazers played a blinder in their eyes as it’s took 3 years (with those final 2 months a complete embarrassment)for the match going fans to turn on him plus he’s about half the price salary wise than a top manager. if Eric cantona is appointed interim and he went on a decent 12 game run history would repeat itself NQAT. |

Don’t get me wrong, he should have only got the time he was initially provided. December to May. But that win in Paris changed things. Most people, me included, thought that was the corner we needed to turn post Fergie. Alas, hindsight is 20/20 and he was caught short more than once, and his luck ran out. I still love Ole the legend, not so much Ole the manager. |

Farewell interview Ole’s idea, wanted to say goodbye supposedly.
Nice man but I won’t rewrite history, of all the managers the club has had since Fergie he has been afforded the most and with the summers activities he has the best squad since Sir Alex left.
I wish him a good break and maybe the Norway job at some point, we move on hopefully to someone that will bring trophies back to us.
Drop some passengers in January and get CDM x2 in the summer and we really should have no excuses!

I’m four imperial stouts in on Stout Sunday. So this is my last post, for tonight:
I never once called Ole a cunt. I can rest easy knowing I won’t have to backtrack in a year when cooler heads prevail, and admit I said things I don’t mean.
That’s not to say he was the wrong man. For me, Bestie has got it right. Vocal in his want for Ole to go but being respectful.

Reading that he’d gone gave me a little spark of reluctant joy, soon snuffed out when I realized that the shit-storm can only get worse before it gets better.
I see major issues with any of the favourite replacements because of the fuckwits high up. Anyone that agrees to take over will either be happy as a yes man, or will impose their own demands which will either prevent them then being hired, or will be agreed and ultimately reneged on.
What a major US point of origin clusterfuck.

I still love Ole the legend, not so much Ole the manager. Possible but I thought at the time that the club should have just waited until then end of that season before deciding on the next manager(ole or someone else)but they stupidly gave him a 3 year contract on that extended new manager bounce and things went south soon after. They them made that same mistake last summer rather than just wait until January next year to see how the season panned out. on both occasions he was never going to be snapped up by any other club(never mind a rival)so there was no rush at all. |
