3 managers out of how many under ENIC? their success rate is very rare, add to the fact none of those 3 won anything

plus i very much remember spurs' fans attitude towards poch in his final 12 months, actually you know what the abuse was there for redknapp too in his final 6 months as we hardly won a game , the infamous mind the gap season . like a 12 point lead over Woolwich with 10 games to go or something ridiculous and they overtook us and we got knocked out the CL places on top
I dont doubt Levys incompetence to make shit appointments but really bored of the false equivalence. This sort of league season has only been seen 3 or 4 times since the war. This isnt Jol, Redknapp or Poch or even Conte or AVB. This isnt normal. He's just a useless manager.
 
I’m not so sure. We’ve all seen that his ego is huge and his lack of self awareness astounding. He seems to think he’s not doing a bad job at all. If anything, I suspect he’d be asking his agent to get him a new contract. He’s an utter berk. He will need sacking, I just hope levy isn’t intoxicated by his bullshit when they meet and keep him on. Never underestimate Levy to not do the wrong thing!
I understand what your saying , but no one , and I mean no one , can underestimate the power of our league position or number of games lost .

Cups are cups , league position generally show your true quality of football .

He's not stupid , he's been mentioning about everybody talking about him supposedly being gone by now , he knows he's on death row and the Europa is all in for him , hence the team he put out today .

This. When either of those names under-performed and got sacked we were around 10th-12th at the worst.

Ange is breaking negative record upon negative record this season. It is bizarre that he has been kept on for so long.
 
Everyone just smashing page refresh until he's gone tbf.

It's like a Transfer Deadline Day that lasts forever.

yep lets just hope it hasn't been for nothing and we're all toasting to our first European trophy in 40 years a month from now
 
I just feel really sad that Levy isn’t brave enough to sack him today and increase our chances of winning the Europa drastically.

All because he is too scared we don’t win it and the narrative then becomes that Levy made a huge mistake sacking this fraud.

He knows he should sack him but he doesn’t want to be accountable like he was with the Jose sacking.

Winning the Europa gives us a great chance of getting a better calibre of manager. I hope the players realise this and give everything possible to win it. The flip side is they might realise they will get punted and better players will replace them.
 
I’ll 100% celebrate winning it and I want this trophy desperately, but if you look at it purely objectively rather than emotionally, we’re in the semis because we haven’t had to play a particularly high standard of opponent.

You know you can think both things!
Mate I agree, it's been an easy run, but when you analyse it, 'if' we win the trophy then it's silverware in our cabinet. Instead of focussing on negatives such as it's only the Ropey league, a top 4 club shouldn't be satisfied with that, it was an easy run. We should just be keen to win, and take every cup seriously, without belittling the thing before we've even won it.
 
Not that it’s a surprise, but a poster on SC who was with Vicario’s family out in Frankfurt (he posted photos) has said the whole defensive unit hate how they are asked to play. Not revelatory but I thought worth posting over as it highlights what a mess things are behind the scenes.

What would be ideal is if we lose by one to Bodo, fat cunt gets sacked we get new manager bounce and turn it around in the second leg and then win the thing without him.

I agree but the league form still means Ange should be gone and should have been sacked. I am sorry but the man has shown that what works in Scotland, J-League and A-League does not work in the Premier League. Even the fact he doesn't have a coaching team follow him from club to club has shown to be a poor decision. The fact is the moment Chris Davies left it screwed Ange even more.
 
Let's be honest everyone knows he's gone. Even Ange knows.

It's just a matter of waiting until Europe is resolved one way or another.

Levy is never sacking Ange whilst we are still in Europe because if we then get knocked out managed by Wells and Mason, Levy will be the one getting all the anger.

So whilst Ange is in place, he's a shield for Levy, and if we don't win it, he can sack Ange and deflect most of the blame yet again.

It sickens me how this club is run by Levy.

Ange should have been sacked at Xmas, why the fuck didn't he do it then? I have no idea. He was already well overdue a sacking even at that stage.

Worst league season in my lifetime and I'm in my early 40s.

Yet I still woke up this morning and have been checking the news furiously to see if he'd been sacked.

This is what the majority of you cunts wanted

'GET LEVY AWAY FROM THE FOOTBALL SIDE'

So he did, and hired Scott Munn who had a decent reputation behind the scenes

Now we have to wait for an end of season review for him to fuck off Munn & Ange

It's not being sad or scared, it's you being a bitch and not owning what you once craved

And as a person he’s an arrogant cunt!

No wonder he supports the Dippers!

It’s still on Vicario not to pass to one of our defenders in the box who’s clearly marked and not ready for it!

Distribution is shocking by him!

Levy is 100% still calling the shots.

Well that's the question we all have asked ourselfs for a long time now.

Are our defence this shit, or is it the tactics??

My guess is it's a bit of both.
