What if Ramsey gets two wins?

Sat Apr 19, 2025 5:39 pm

I think two wins keep us up.

What happens if Ramsey achieves that?

Does he become manager next season?

Of course we all support him and want him to succeed, but this is his first managerial job and we don't know for sure if he has what it takes.

All I will say is the players respect him.

Happy Riza has left, but if we stay up or go down we still need an experienced manager next season.
Ramsey will then become like a Ryan Mason at spurs untill he's 'full on' ready in years to come

Lutons remaining fixtures look tough and I think they will get 4 points max

Derby have an easier run in than Luton but again think they will also get 4 points

Plymouth need a bigger miracle than us so need to win all 3 which they won't

That means 6 points would be enough to see us safe

This thread is way too early. Let's take one step at a time. Can we win on Monday? We'll see, It's a massive task as Riza has done so much damage, Whatever happens its not on Ramsey and he will always remain a legend at this club.

Ramsey is in a win win situation.

Keeps us up then people will call for him to be manager next season.

We go down, it wasn’t his fault.

He has nothing to lose.

My opinion is that regardless of the division we are in, he shouldn’t be the manager. We should be bringing in a proven manager and if they want Ramsey as assistant then great.

Exactly, he's our answer to Ryan Mason

I agree, but also think that if he managed to keep us up then it would be too much for the club to not keep him.

That's because they know Ramsey would have patience from the fans and that we wouldn't get on his back quickly.

It would be an ideal scenario for the board.

But I do agree with you.

Well sadly , going on past experiences, we will award a one or two year deal after a lengthy contractual period , and then sack him after 6 months .

Re: What if Ramsey gets two wins?

The largest difference is Ramsey has played at some elite clubs, trained with some fantastic coaches and achieved great things.

He does lack in experience as a manager, but has experienced being managed by both world class managers, and ones lacking that.

If we are taking a risk on a rookie next season, my vote would go with him. A career surrounded by quality players, he must have picked up a lot of knowledge on their movements and techniques

Exactly! :thumbup:

Not so much Ned (it’s a valid question) but the rest on here making assumptions that this is anything but a stopgap situation

For me, this a a good decision made a few games too late; but ‘something’ had to be tried, as Riza was clearly not going to (a) inspire, or (b) give the right players the chance to play their own game(s)

Not sure where Gunter fits in but I wish Rambo and his cohort all the very best of luck and we’ll see where we lie in two weeks time! :ayatollah:

Re: What if Ramsey gets two wins?

I know his body is saying different but I think he will do this on the short term and probably have a player coach role next season.

He still wants to go to the world cup and to be our manager he would probably have to give that up.

He’s hasn’t been in the job 24 hours yet, and you’re worrying who’s in charge next year. Let’s just enjoy finally getting rid of Riza and see if we can get two wins. I actually think we will beat Oxford and West Brom.

But let’s worry about next season when we know where we are.

For me this is a desperation move, a popular one yes but still desperate.

From giving up we are now all praying this pulls off. If he does pull it off them we will need to go back to the drawing board for next seasons manager.

I don’t think you can blame the fans of our club for this mess mate. This solely sits with tan.

I'm not blaming the fans. But I'm saying the board should already be thinking what happens beyond this season, whatever happens in these three games, and as fans we probably should too.

I like the idea of Gunter being there as he is similar to Ralls in terms of an elite championship-level player who understands this division. Aaron has the charisma, name, and hopefully aura, but his playing career was at a different table from the players he'll be coaching.

Well you did say the the problem was let’s deal with it another time. I took that as meaning we as fans ignored the issues. Let’s focus on the last 3 games first and worry where we are after that. The problem has been there for years so another couple of weeks won’t hurt.

For it’s worth I think he will get the two wins and if he wants to should then keep the job, and if he doesn’t no really expected us to stay up anyway because the board reacted to late (not the fans lol) I still think he should get the job if that’s what he wants. For his managerial career this is perfect he is in a no lose position in my mind. His managerial future won’t be based on these last 3 games.

At least Warnock didn’t come back.

Spot on mate. I think that’s enough to deal with.

Re: What if Ramsey gets two wins?

An advantage with two home games.... but stay up and its time for an experienced championship manager to bring hopefully stability and structure to our play?

Yeah my thoughts exactly let's deal with 1 game at a time. And if he wins all 3 doesn't mean 3 Yr manager contract

If Ramsey keeps us up, give him a player manager role fo next season

This sort of thing is where the club has gone wrong time after time.

New manager comes in, does ok, then gets rewarded with a full time longer term contract.

Riza is a prime example of that.

I still stand by the comments I made - Ramsey is in a win win situation right now, but regardless of the division we are in next season, we need to appoint a manager with experience.

Re: What if Ramsey gets two wins?

Sun Apr 20, 2025 7:52 pm

This can only be short term. Fair play to the board, they have given young managers a chance over the last few years, but this can only be for 4 games.

Their brief is to come in, ramp the place up a bit get a feel good factor going and try and get some points. That kind of approach usually works in the first few games but will fizzle out.

Re: What if Ramsey gets two wins?

Sun Apr 20, 2025 9:44 pm

Obviously I hope Ramsey gets us 2 wins and keep us up,but I’ve got a feeling if they do the board will thing they’ve done a good job then that’s my worry

Re: What if Ramsey gets two wins?

Sun Apr 20, 2025 9:58 pm

I actually disagree that this is a similar situation to where we have been before.

In his prime, Ramsey played for Wenger, Dave Jones, Sarri, Ursea, some pretty decent managers and I believe some world class coaches. He isn’t a basement dweller, known for his hard work and grit, he has a very technical mind and I think it was Warnock who said he’s like a rolls Royce on the pitch, he just has time and space even if you mark him tight.

If we are going for unproven, inexperienced, an unknown manager, he would be my choice.

I would perhaps pick the likes of Cooper over him, but that is a pipe dream
