Vinai's whole argument seems to be, an interim couldn't possibly do better than Frank, which is actually preposterous. It couldn't get worse.
So whilst I think there is absolutely no doubt Frank will be gone in the summer, the idea we can't get an interim in now, to give everyone a boost and pick up a few results this season (and put relegation out of our minds) is just moronic.
Tbh it simply stinks, IMO, of Vinai not wanting to make the change because of what it would mean for him and his perception at the club. The more he resists VL on sacking Frank now, the more he doubles down, the more resistent he is to making a change, it's the sunk cost fallacy.
He's gone all in on Frank, so he wants it to work, and the longer he gives Frank, the more chance there is he can turn it around.
I don't get why we can't just sack him and put an interim in. Surely the board are looking at what Carrick has done at United and said to themselves, we can do that too. Why wouldn't they? I really hope United's last two games has given VL and the board a wake up call, to not listen to Vinai and actually say, "you know Vinai, you are wrong. Look at United, we need that, let's make the change" and to make a change this week.

He's still here then?
These cunts surround themselves with yes men. Levy had all those around him just saying yes.
Zero danger of that. We wouldn’t even beat Hull City
I'd 100% have Mick in now to get a feel good factor at the club now.
Frank is objectively the worst manager, if you can call him that, I have seen in my life as a Spurs supporter.
A quarter century of ENIC and some of you guys still think they pay attention to the table?
For me he’s earnt the right to manage us against city at home. But sack him right after that.
Yeah I agree. He should definitely manage us against City
Problem is it doesn’t matter who the gaffer is, we often find our way past City

They do whatever you and others may believe, because being in the PL brings in money and because relegation is in no equation of theirs. None.
Somewhere in the mind of this fcuking CEO and Lange they don't see that worst case scenario happening, and they evidently want to see the season out with Fearful Frank.
And we know this because saying something commits them to a position,so the shirkers do and say nothing.
Tomorrow will bring more Internet rumour and no change, other than it depends on the Frankfurt game. The the City game etc etc etc.
Is he younger than Martin O'Neil?
Rubbish. Not even funny.
7 years younger

Who signed those shit players? Who sets them up to play every week?
I haven't been making my point clear. He obviously didn't want PEH, Dier et al, and said he wanted the incomers
The team that Poetecoglou used to finish 5th, a few players out, a few players in, was pretty much the same squad that he used the previous season except no Dier, PEH and maybe one or two others that weren't in his plans and one or two incomers such as Solanke that he wanted. For half the season he declined to play Spence, then came out with some BS about how he was testing his will to stick in there and fight for his place..... p'leeease!
There was a full squad of players going into the season as backed as much as Conte who also had European football to contend with.
I don't know why some of these posters on here pretend Postecoglou was hard done by in the transfer window when about half the squad was injured, if the injury crises was much lesser there was an adequate squad in numbers.
Should the club have signed better players? Of course, but that's not only applicable to Postecoglou's tenure.
Anyway I don't really give a fuck about him, I'm just stating that he wasn't any more hard done by with transfers than previous managers, so his second season 17th league position may have been due to injuries but he wasn't relatively hard done by, and even when players returned from injury the results in the Premier League were still shit.
