Without wanting to turn this into an Enic debate because there's a thread for that, they are only currently playing with the hand that Levy gave them.

Daniel (COYS) hired Frank, Lange and Vinai and I doubt the new kids would've wanted the instant upheaval of completely clearing the decks just before the start of the season.

This summer is, and always has been, when we're going to properly find out what they're all about.
If they act fast, decisively and in a positive manner, then great but if they dither and dally then I'll be joining the calls against them.
I just think they deserve a chance to prove their worth and they've not really had that yet.

They've shown nothing but gross incompetence thusly. I have absolutely no faith they'll put that right in the summer, or ever. Vinai still in a job, Lange still in a job, Conor Gallagher, sacking Frank months too late. Even Coys, Daniel would've sacked him well before and at least gave us a fighting chance.

They need to get gone. ENIC, Tavistock, whoever it is. Get gone.

I think that's a fair opinion and I'm not going to argue against it but I do think that they were trying to trust the people in charge, Vinai and Lange.
They stepped in when it was clear that those two were spineless and yes, maybe they should have done it sooner but as we often call for, they were trying to put faith in the football people to know what they were doing.

It transpires that they don't but it's not easy to change your CEO and DoF mid-season, so as I say, I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt for now.
Vinai and Frank are both relatively new to the club so I can understand why they were given a chance but hopefully the kids now realise that they aren't up to the task, so the axe will soon fall.

I'm not confident in the kids but we'll know for sure come the summer.

Fair enough, I can respect that. But as far as I'm concerned, they've failed spectacularly in their short audition so far. Do we even know of they have the capital to actually invest? I can't see Joe at 906, just deciding now to pump money into us.
 
Bit of noise that he'll be panic sacked if we lose tonight.

But then get who on super short notice? ? And to come in for a nightmare trifecta and confidence killer of athletico, Liverpool and athletico again

Sounds unlikely, but who knows with these clowns running the club

Got to be Redknapp surely. Never should have hired Turdor in the first place. All he's done is whinge about the refs and players and there's been no new manager bounce. If we win tonight he stays but if we lose I'd get rid. At least Redknapp will bring a bit of confidence back which is our main problem atm imo.

That's the thing though, by all accounts Uncle Joe no longer has control which is why Levy was booted.

And I'm sure we already have enough money to spend because we've been up there with the big spenders for years now, we just need to spend more wisely and improve the wages to be competitive in the market.

Stop spending on 3 £40m players on low(ish) wages and spend big on 1 sure fire player with high wages.
(Obvs that easier said than done because there's no such thing as a guaranteed successful signing but you know what I'm saying).

Redknapp might be old but he'd get the players playing with a bit of confidence at least which tudor seems to be failing at.

I think people fail to realize how much younger and for lack of a better phrase less English-cultured our squad is than what Redknapp has coached.

Mathys Tel and Aaron Lennon have certain similarities as players, but being born in Leeds in 1987 is very different from being born in Paris in 2005 in terms of what footballing culture and ideas you've been exposed to.

The players would have no idea what the fuck 'Arry was saying, his footballing ideas belong to a different era.

Get the feeling this group just need to be picked up with an arm around the shoulder. Advanced tactical lessons arent going to do much. 4 3 3 or even 4 4 2 under redknapp and we'd get a few results I feel. Whether he could keep this shitshow up is another matter.
 
Tudor has to go now. Get Redknapp in, sign Dele as free agent (even if only as a touchline sub cheer leader). We are fkin clueless and spineless.
 
He’s been absolutely awful as many predicted.
Bizarre selections and just a dour man.
Players are clearly not listening to him, zero difference from Frank
 
Not changed a thing.

I said all those words meant nothing.

Got to instill something straightaway and that's not happened.

Got no idea what happens with the guy but he has not had the instant impact we needed.
 
Whose idea was it to sign an unknown as the interim manager. What sort of total wankers are running or not running this club. Fuck off you useless pile of shite.
