Three named are Harry, guirdiola, Benitez.

Benitez would be a strange choice.

This doesn't suprise me and concerns me of events that could come to us, when you have owners that powerful and that used to getting their own way, any failure, or even not instant success.

People with that much money and that much power and dangerous animals, this was my major concern with recent events at our club, it's not a position any of us would choose, but we have a situation and we have to deal with it the best way possible for the sake of the club, people are walking around VT as if they are on egg shells it ain't healthy, just how it is.

Whether we like it or not the world is run by money and power, those with it, tend to make the decisions that affect us all.

I'm not suprised either Gwyn for the same reasons you mention.
It's still crazy to the normal fan or a run if the mill club.
Win champions league and FA cup in first season, then after 2 months get the chop.

and the Ukraine have approached Harry Redknapp, standby for QPR sacking Hughes this afternoon so they don't miss out of the chance to get Harry

It does make you wonder what would VT do if we lost a few games in a row or went winless for 10 games or so and dropped down the table? I'd imagine that he would probably send Malky on his way considering the amount of money he has spent and VT's single mindedness.
Look at the reactions on here when we lost two on bounce, calling for Malky to be sacked, so imagine what VT was thinking at that time.

I was watching the Chelsea game on a stream last night, there was a Chelsea fan on the chat box who insisted the DiMatteo would be sacked today and that Guidiola would be next manager on 13 million a year!!! Didn't pay too much attention at the time but he was saying this as the game was in progress so there may be some mileage in it. Checked odds so having a sneaky Meerkat at 7/2 with VC, Benitez seems to be odds on with all bookies but can get 6/4 with Will Hill if your quick.

Guidiola has now become evs favourite. Wouldn't suprise me if rafa was brought in, in some warped attempt to bring the best out if Torres.

Always been the concern of mine in whatever environment you look at. I grew up being scared of communism but had a fear of what I was told was the right way capitalism. Today I believe my fears are coming to light.

Football clubs have relied on the supporters for its financail stability since its conception. Today it is becoming apparent that most of them are relying on a sponsor in one form or the other. This is resulting in a dictatorship culture at the top and indeed it is not good.

According to guillem balague Pep has told Roman he is continuing his sabbatical

Re: Di Matteo sacked !!

He was never good enough for them.

Playing no striker last night was a disaster.

Re: Di Matteo sacked !!

Wed Nov 21, 2012 10:45 am

He got let down by not bringing a striker. I thought this season Lukaku was going to make his break to be fair.

Just checked on VC, Guardiola now 6/1 with Benitez 1/4. I'll never make a living out this betting lark I can see, probably starve to death within a month :lol:
