Are you Frank Out or In?

Seems the majority on here are largely echoing the same thoughts....

Very happy with the appointment but not to expect miracles unless we invest in proven quality in key areas that are obvious.

There is ZERO reason why a club of our stature and financial standing can't go out and identify 2-3 player fit for the first 11 and buy them. Look at the moves other top clubs are making for Christ's sakes.

Enic, Levy, Lewis Stop being so micky mouse and do what you ought to be or hurry up a get out!

Let's go oooo!!!!!

Top 8 maybe. Seriously going from 17th to top 5 is a lot in one season.
We could easily compete in a domestic cup but CL might be tough with this current squad.

I think his main problem is dealing with over expectation because half our fan base is so clueless they think we have world class players like Kulusevski and err Brazil’s number 9. We don’t. This squad is very average in all truth.

And if we want a title, EL will give us a better chance than CL

I will probably eat my words but with how ENIC run the club a flexible manager like Frank is probably the best fit similar to a Redknapp style appointment. Our squad will always be a bit square pegs rounds holes and this is probably for the best.

This is what I’ve talked myself into as well

Big question is can Frank be an advantage for us ?
 
Everybody seems to think it is a done deal.

I'm not, it's Levy we are counting on. I hope it will go through but I won't be sure until I see Frank smile in an official post from the club.

Spot on. We won the Europa and Ange was sacked, it's the best case scenario possible out of a wretched season.

We've had to put up with the Ange cultists now telling us all he's a winner, and is amazing and should never have been sacked, all complete bollocks, but it's a small price to pay.

The Ange cultists are all about to become Frankophiles.

Trust me, they will be hanging on this guys every word in a few weeks.
 
Saw a conversation on here comparing him to Poch, and Im getting those vibes.

Clearly better than the level he is operating at, looks suited to us/our needs - could be a move that allows him to really show what he can do.

Wasnt the most inspiring choice when someone raised it to me a week ago, but the idea has grown on me a great deal since.

And I reiterate what I said about Ange the other day - he feels like the perfect transitional manager - getting us out of the funk that preceded him.

If Frank can build on what Ange has started I think we could be in for exciting times.

Let’s hope he’s better than Poch and actually wins something

I think there's too much noise around it for it to be anything but a formality at this point. Marco Silva out at 5/2 is the only other candidate being rated as an outside chance by the bookies and they'd be offering much less at this stage if there were serious whispers of issues with the Frank deal.
 
When I was a kid, people with ears like Frank's were always nicknamed 'Wingnut'. Kids these days probably have no idea what a wingnut is. Fucking google it.

The small formality of Levy spunking £10M on a release clause for a manager.

I got banned for there for telling the prick with the ban stick to grow up.

On reflection, and legitimately not me being salty, this place is tons better, less stupid rules, and full freedom to take the piss out of the ITK nonsense.

I don't buy that the owner is OK though, at best he's merely complicit with the micro penis wanker ruling with his iron fist, but he's definitely balls deep on the ITK grift and the donation drives.

I agree. I was banned from there because I got in an argument with someone about Winks. I was constantly saying he was utter shit and shouldn't be in the team, and people raved about him telling me he was the next Pirlo.

Next minute I know, I was banned by that wanker A&C probbaly because he disagreed with me.

Signed up again a few years later under a different username, and posted regularly with no issues. One day I made a mistake logging in on my old banned username on the same device. It must have triggered an alert, A&C messaged me saying "I have a security alert with multiple logins from you, can you explain what has happened" So I just said I had re-signed up after losing my old username and password. And he just banned me again.

He's an utter cretin.

You only have to look at the absolute wetwipes on there though to realise, this is a far better place. You can be passionate and honest, have an argument or heated debate, and all is good the next day. On there you get that moron on a powertrip, posting absolute drivel, but nobody can say shit to him because he's the moderator.

And as you say, the owner must see how he acts, and he doesn't stop it, so he's complicit.
 
Most men's ears continue to grow in old age, as their head shrinks. Frank's ears have got a head start on most people's. By the age of 90 he should be able to take off and fly short distances.
