Wow. You know you have literally just described Frank? Except for the 2 years part
I could actually use the same reply from the one you quoted hahahaha

This is very depressing. They are running their own internal social circles of hires. I won't be surprised if Heitinga doesn't stay long, if he looks to join Slot elsewhere or anywhere with bigger ambitions.
Just amazing to pour so much resource into a bloke who has done so little, as though there is more perceived likelihood of success if you just give it time, regardless of any evidence to the contrary.
It makes no sense whatsoever, the simple fact is he hasnt shown anything to suggest time is all that is needed
And yet, ridiculous as it seems, thats exactly what our board of numptys seem to think
Their algorithms must be telling them something many of us can't see.
You run out of words to describe what's going on, whereas you would expect to be hearing of end of season talks on the manager's future if things don't improve, we seem to be being sent messages of carry on regardless.
The problem could be that come the summer the board will think that being out of Europe is actually a good thing.
That it gives Frank time to work with the players in-between matches which will lead to better performances/results.
Oh god I've depressed myself...

Time and tide wait for no man, which must then presume the manager is not a man.
It's baseless faith.
I mentioned similar yesterday, but in regards to a good manager
The glaring problem here is that Brentford were happy to let them all go. If I was in charge of Spurs I'd have thought "hang on, why are those fuckers not putting up more resistance to me stealing their entire coaching team". It was is if they knew exactly what we were getting. A crap coaching team who have benefited from a solid front office and low expectations at Brentford, to enhance their profiles. Frank is dead after this gig. Can't see another club giving him an opportunity. To be honest, with the massive pay off coming his way, I doubt he'll even need to work again. Probably take the Denmark job at some point down the line, do that 4 year cycle, and disappear to the studio to talk bollocks about football.9 staff from Brentford
When was the last time we let any manager have that many people?
And fucking hell they do it for Frank of all people
To be fair, this most recent guy was actually at Palace the last 18 months
And Im pretty sure the set piece guy was at a few clubs post Brentford
Its more his immediate coaching staff (Cochrane/the analyst etc) that came directly from there.
But, yes, some weird unambitious nepotism going on. Id like to think the club would have more ambition/imagination...
As to Frank, he'll get work. At least 1 or 2 more. And if he lands at a club that thinks success is staying up - he might even look competent again. But he is categorically not a big club manager, thats done for him now.
I fucking hope not
Definitely too soon to tell but I can't see them sacking him unless we get into real trouble. If we finish 8th and spawn our way to CL semis, we're not changing manager.
That's way beyond what I think we are capable of achieving this season and yet at this stage, the manager honestly seems bullet proof.
Eh? Ramos won that League Cup with Jol's team not his own.
Can't believe you'd stab Jol in the back like that just to make a spurious point against a genuine trophy winning manager like Postecoglou . Smh
I think Vinai & Lange did not sign any more players due to limited options in the market.
Yeah, we definitely needed to sign backups, but they probably thought if we should purchase any other players, they need to be at the required standard.
Frank must not rate Scarlett, since his loan makes no sense from a squad perspective.
But as low as the standards have fallen, if Frank keeps following the same trajectory, there is no way his tenure should continue.
The thing is look at Brentford, they are flying in the league, hopefully if we stick with Frank in a few years we can be trying to 6th - 10th!!!!!9 staff from Brentford
