That's a really good post. And probably one that can't be argued with.I selected 'undecided' because there's not a 'don't care' option. He could leave tomorrow or in May. I couldn't give a fuck.
He's not good enough at this level. He is poor at rotating the squad, which is part of the reason we've been saddled with injuries. He's incapable of change. Some of our players have regressed, some not pushed on. He's been out-thought by plenty of other managers to the point of looking clueless. He's fucking useless at inspiring the players during a game. He stands there, a grizzled statue of incompetence as we fall apart against supposedly lesser teams.
But I quite like it when we go balls out and win big. His football can be entertaining and I'll take it over the bland nothingness of Conte any day.
But, again, he's not good enough. Neither are some of the players he's been saddled with, or I suspect some of his coaching staff, or the recruitment team - and most certainly not their boss at the top.
I don't think sacking him will make much difference. We get someone else in and maybe we climb a place or two higher, but that's about it. I'll still be feeling disgruntled because it just won't be enough. The imbalance will remain, the squad shallow and always two or three signings short of pushing to compete for the biggest prizes.
And ever more shall all this be so while Levy is in charge.
We'll never invest adequately in the quality of players he needs to make his system work in the most competitive league in the world.I put in undecided because I think the jury is still out but I’m quite clear in my view, I say leave him in until the end of the season to make sure we are not missing a trick, perhaps his system might eventually work, perhaps the players might come around. Given all the turnover traffic with our managers and the lack of an obvious replacement I’m for seeing the season out with Ange. Mind you, I’m don’t have a high confidence level that he’ll survive through to next season.

He won't change his system, so we probably need to change the manager.
Ange with more ambitious owners on the other hand. .![]()
It still wouldn’t work unless you are spending Chelsea level money on the rebuild. His tactics are not good enough, he has way too little flexibility.We'll never invest adequately in the quality of players he needs to make his system work in the most competitive league in the world.

I totally agree about the flexibility.It still wouldn’t work unless you are spending Chelsea level money on the rebuild. His tactics are not good enough, he has way too little flexibility.
Tell you what, Chelsea / Ange would be an interesting combohe should have gone to chelsea with a gigantic squad number.,
Boely has a big wallet. match made in heaven.
Come on then you twats
Interested to see the reaction after the recent TFC polls on Twatter
Good post Bolton. Straight from the heart as always.Out, out, out.
But only if levy and ENIC fuck off too.
Unless it’s a package deal then keep Ange and make them lot squirm.
How many managers since they took over?
How many trophies?
I’m no glory hunter. I’ve still got my John Duncan signed photo from the old shop. My dad brought it home about 45 years ago after a “jolly”
I love this club. That won’t change. But my will to carry on supporting a system that rinses and repeats with the same result is a fucking living ball and chain.
And I’m not getting younger or more patient.
