I didn’t. Our 4th place was always a false position because of the games in hand.

But you are free to support the team however you like and if negativity is your thing…

It’s not negativity if I’m proven right constantly. I was a VERY optimistic fan under Poch. I see no reasons now to be positive beyond blind hope - which I don’t buy in to.

That said, I do hope Ange does well. Likeable bloke, so was Nuno. But at least this one likes to attack.

It's not great but we still love it, way better than Fosters though. Had genuinely never seen Fosters in my life until I went to the UK so bizarre that everyone thinks of it as our favourite.

It's basically New South Wales=Toohey's, Victoria=VB, Queensland=XXXX, South Australia=Coopers, Tasmania=James Boag's, I think our most popular beer is Great Northern now which is from Queensland, and outside of Coopers probably the best.

Vic: CUB, Furphy and Northern's extremely popular now.

If the Madrid interest in Kane is genuine then it might be worth getting 100 million and letting him sort the squad out with his type of player

Obviously don’t want to lose Kane in any circumstance but if it’s happening either this summer or next, this summer is preferable particularly with a new direction the club seems to be going in

Mourinho got us to a cup final, and took us from 14th in November to the Ropey league.

Beating Brentford and Stoke in the process, and penalties vs Chelsea.

He took over at 14th, but that was only 6 points off 6th, where we ended up.

Sorry to be a pedant but anything suggesting Mourinho did a good job needs some scrutiny.

Contes first season was definitely promising I'll give you that.

The proven winners haven't worked, at least Ange might be fun.

Conte took us from the Nono shambles to a breathtaking run to finish 4th. This season, he took a record number of points after 10 games, then had us right up near the top, and then had us a few seconds away from 3rd in the league before a bent penalty ended his sanity.
They didn't fail. They arguably both over achieved with the resources they had.
After Conte went we dropped like a fucking stone this season. It's almost as if he had a shit team punching well above its weight, even if they were fighting ugly, they were fighting.

Now let's have a crack with a bloke who has less big league experience than even Nono!
Our biggest punts in the Levy era were probably AVB (success in Portugal and European success) Poch (had Espanyol and Saints punching well above their weight) and Nono (got Wolves promoted and top half finishes in multiple seasons)

And now. Some one with nowhere near that kind of experience.
It's a massive, borderline reckless gamble

neither of them lasted 2 years due to league form turning to absolute shit and a clear bad vibe round the team/club. bad vibe more conte, you just know when that feeling sets in whats going on and the writing is on the wall, bloke was an absolute cunt. ive never hated watching us more than with him and his poxy system that has someone like emerson royal as your main attacking threat. was the most frustrating watch of football ever.


who else is available to us? id rather have someone like postecoglou where there is a chance he could be special, than someone like rodgers whos appointment alone would break any bit of positive spirit still floating about.
 
Last comment on here.

Congratulations. Sincerely.

As I said previously, Ive always had a soft spot for Spurs. It's still stings like fuck that AGAIN, were losing talent to the EPL, but thems the brakes.
Nothing we can do about it until you lot get your "superleague" and we can finally break free of Scottish football and form the thrice proposed Atlantic League.

To all the naysayers, in two months time you might say I told you so.
But in 6 months time, you'll be apologising.

I can't give you anything more than that. The dude wins titles... Moves on to bigger things. Wins more titles.... Moves on.

What I CAN tell you is, your entire squad is about to get a rocket up their arse. And youre going to stop buying shite. Ange buys his own players, and refuses to have his opinions relegated.
Levy will be told this before he takes the job.

Your players will be told on day one, bust a gut, or you're not playing.
His entire ethos of man management is "your next game is an opportunity to be better than ALL of your previous games, if it isn't, then prove to me you will make the next one."

He also doesn't play the media game. You can enjoy YouTube watching him literally piss on reporters chips for their bs.

You've had the CL winning managers, the PL winning managers, the marquis managers...

All of them turned to piss.

Ange is what you need. I'm gutted he's leaving us, but going to LOVE watching his Spurs team put the shits up every defence in the EPL.

Birthday Card pish? Yes.

But that's how much he's impressed Celtic fans.

I'd like to say good luck... But it's redundant. You don't need luck anymore, Ange Postecoglou is your manager.

Big kiss x
