Tan wasn't "unlucky" when he appointed Riza and then allowed him to take us down.
He was just being his usual stubborn, arrogant, clueless incompetent self.
Agreed, and if reports are correct, Risa talked himself into (and Bulut out of) the job; and Tan fell for it!
The BBM situation is soooo different, as the club initially wanted Rambo, messed him around something chronic until he walked away, then they (the club) went on the Disney Merry-go-round of Non-progress, coming very close to appointing more than one individuals, before circumstances left them with the need to appoint a coach who could work with the youth on a budget
I’m genuinely not sure who put BBM forward to the club, but on this occasion it all aligned and the result has been pretty positive so far; and I’d call that ‘lucky’!

I thought Bulet was going to open up about this but it never happened.
BBM got the job because he aligned with Tans thinking. That being use the youth and lets go cheap cheap cheap. So far its working. Lucky or not its still early days but lets say this works out and we get back into the Championship. We then return to all the concerns we had from the start of this season.

I won't be giving him credit because it's mostly because of him that we're in this league.

Murphy was the manager of Manchester City Elite Development Squad suggesting they knew each other and Mark Allen recommended him.
I felt at the time it was more of an orderly appointment , and perhaps Tan listened to Allens knowledge of Murphy potential especially coaching younger lads through to first team appearances, which is happening??
The post isn't a wind up ,its a genuine question , yes we were relegated, perhaps thay was the plan we go down ,start a fresh without the struggles of trying to stay up all the time with bigger wage bills dropping crowds ,less TV revenues.
You never know if we keep this team and go up we may become the next Sunderland?
If Tan goes who does appear ?? Surely not Bale again he's a bit flaxy with his commitment to.us ?

Just feel some credit is due to him and the backroom team.
Having watched the opposition this year we clearly have the best team squad .
Manager is a breath of fresh air..
Welsh youngsters getting chances .
Non.Welsh lads excellent kire to.come .
All.has to.be funded .
After another great result we get this. Please tell me this is a wind up. ??
Paul,
I honestly believe it’s a wind up.
We should not be in Division 3 at all and if our club had been managed right from the top we would of stayed in the Premiership not Suffered “ Three Relegations “
I think we have had 15–16 Managers and 6 CEO
This is a Total Wind up.
We should just try and enjoy this season not suddenly be divided by a Wind up.
Totally agree Annis, soon as the dictator leaves the sooner our club can move forward.
