I dont fucking know. But chairmen don`t stay at clubs forever do they ? All I know is he invests less and less in the squad. We`re going backwards on the pitch.. Every manager he`s ever hired he`s sacked. He sells our best players. He sanctions cheap third choice replacements. He fucks around like a stupid cunt in the transfer window. And as a result we the fans get stitched up like fucking cunts with results and performances like today.
All I`m saying is instead of asking for the manager to be sacked at the end of every season of failure, we should perhaps look at the cunt who hires them in the first place.

he invested 106m last season in just transfer fees , then there is the investment in what is seen as the best training facilities in the world .
Selling the best players is the business plan of thfc , buy cheap, develop sell for profit whilst still maintaining our position in the league , the thing a lot of fans fail to grasp is that apart from Chelsea and city every premier league club is a business and we are one of the most successful.
As for his transfer dealings he does the best for thfc which includes paying less yet selling for more than a players worth .
I don't think the way the first team squad preform or result is up to him , more the players and manager ... I will give you though apart from HR is manager selection leaves a lot to be desired ,but overall thfc the business is in the best hands in the league and im sure lots of other clubs would like a chairman like ours ...

Just don't understand how people could want Poch fired already. Haven't we had enough of the manager musical chairs? Poch has had one season with a SHIT squad. The only players we could rely on all season every game is Harry Kane and Hugo. Danny Rose and Bentaleb have been great lately also.

When you watch the last couple of games, you can tell this team is gassed. 55 games played this year. High press system. They just don't have the energy. Mostly because we had to dress our best players in the early stages of Europa, because our subs are that shit.

Did Poch get it all right this season? No, absolutely not but he's so hamstrung by this shit squad I don't know what some people want him to do. I mean we've basically played this entire campaign without a true RB.

As far as reliable players, we have Kane, Eriksen (most of the time) Bentaleb, Rose and Hugo. Our wing players are poor. For having like 12 CMs on the team, we only have one we can rely on and he's 20 years old.

This was always a transitional season for Poch. It gave him a chance to see who can be an asset and who he can get rid of. Things always get worse before they get better. We desperately need some players that bring leadership, especially a CM we can anchor the team.

this is the same "shit squad" that avb/Sherwood had that had played in Europa also yet finished with more points
 
So, he supports Man City, Man United, Spurs...

Any other teams to add? I'm sure I've seen him post on a Villa forum, or possibly West Ham. My Cameron gene kicking in...

The Stambouli who we signed cheaply, has played well and actually looked like he knows how to shield a defence before getting inexplicably perma-benched? Or another Stambouli?

The Stambouli who we only signed last due to the fact we couldn't get Schneiderlin, our team is full of 2nd choices Fazio is another one (see Musacchio) Soldado (Villa) even Eriksen as good as he's been was a backup after Willian went tits up.

I always wanted AVB to be given more time but his relationship with Levy broke down so both men were just waiting for the inevitable, with Poch it's a steady cycle of good/poor and mostly mediocre, our season highlights were two home wins against Chelses and Woolwich and Kane's coming of age but despite his 30 goals we're somehow unable to move forward.
