It's usually you heard of that poster on Fightingcock called 'Papafeels?'

When I say no, the response is usually 'phew lucky you, he really goes way over the top'.

You asked.
Was that supposed to be a joke, orrrrr? If so, genuinely one of the worst attempts at humour I've seen.

Your joke also contradicts itself, multiple people ask of you've heard if me, you tell them no, whilst talking...to me.

Poor execution, back story and delivery need work.

You still never gave me the word for it, disappointing.

2/10.

What if they beat us 5-0 and it could have been ten? Then what... suck it up and carry on...

Also, was Nuno given a fair chance to deliver?
Again, Frank's circumstances make it impossible to do anything. So we have to sit and take it.

Also, if you don't like the manager they like (it's okay if they don't like him), you don't support the club. It doesn't make sense to anyone with a hint of critical thought and rationality, but these guys get hurty feelings, and you shouldn't be so insensitive.

That's me told.

I must learn never to tackle you in the future.

Way too nuch for ne to handle, which I bet you hear all the time.
 
Liverpool will stick by Slot too long United can't afford to dump Amorin..Iraola I think could indeed end up at the Chavs. Which as the coach I wanted Id hate.

Hmmmm.....

An interesting take.

Bournemouth isn't filth club, and Slot should not be under pressure quite yet.

Amorim is the more difficult one to assess in that I don't think it's money in the slightest, as opposed to wanting to genuinely give him time, and the dearth of potential candidates

Will be interesting.

Now you two are getting riled up about a hypothetical hammering next weekend - fuck me give it a rest would ye

Eh? I'm not riled up about anything. I said if we perform like we did against Chelsea, that's not result dependent, that's effort and not cowering away from them.

I'm pretty relaxed, there's no way this is sustainable and it won't be allowed to happen for too long after the Ange debacle. He'll be gone soon and we can forget it never happened.
 
Frank was Brentford manager at the time and off the back of another good season by Brentford's standards. Santo was out of a job when we signed him.

Kane was doing his treacherous sh!t and we were in a mess.

The situations are vastl different and I think Frank will get more time, as he should, regardless of the game with that lot.

But even if I was an avid Frank fan I would not be silly enough to believe that if we lost a lot of games in succession or at the end of the season were 8th to 10th or lower, and had done nothing in the 2 remaining cup competitions, that Frank's position would not be in jeopardy.

This is about reasonableness, and trying to step outside of subjectivity.

We should all simply want Frank to be here for the next 3 to 5 years, because it will only mean one thing if he is
I'm just saying it's not that the club haven't sacked a manager recently, early doors, shortly after badly losing to the goons.

That's all.

I don't think Frank will be sacked, nor do I want him sacked, if we lose to the goons in the upcoming match, but it's not unheard of.
 
Maybe, that's speculative though, all we know is that Conte eventually came in, we were trying to get him all Summer and he eventually agreed when we got desperate, this is nothing like Frank's situation
'he agreed because we got desperate' lol. Like he gave a fuck about the situation at Spurs.

Okay you stick to the conspiracy theory that Nuno was hired for four months because Conte wasn't ready to start, and the results of Nuno's tenure were irrelevant.
 
If that's what you've taken from what I said then God help you.
Hahaha, first you said Nuno was a placeholder because we had a world class manager waiting, then you said Conte agreed to join the club because we got desperate.

I really can't be bothered with all this, but one last time.

Nuno was fired after 4 months in 9th position about a week after we were dissected by the goons.
I'm not saying it's the same situation as Frank, but the club have a reputation right there. If they sacked Frank for being 9th after losing to the goons, it won't be the first time that it's happened relatively recently.

Do I think it will happen? No.
Do I want it to happen? No
Would I be surprised if it happened? No.

Er Yeah 2 things can be true... :porrohands:

Engage the brain a little and think why we sacked Nuno and got in Conte - it was results/performance driven and Conte later on agreed after he initially rejected us.

And you can't be bothered but you can really hence why you want to go over it again lmao, if you're acknowledging that this isn't the same situation as Frank then you literally have no argument and you're just arguing the toss as per...

Yup...It feels like I'm constantly getting gas-lit in this stupid Nuno/Frank argument, anyone with a shred of common will tell you the situations aren't alike.
