    Spot on.

    When they were staring at the Abyss and Gerrard was ‘hingin on like a thread’ -along came Covid and lockdown and from there as we’ve imploded they’ve stayed consistent: without Covid, he’d have been sacked and we’d be 10INAROW legends. Instead of just QTrebleDouble9InARow winners.

    Thems the facts.

    Previously, I’d settled into the viewpoint that it’s gonna be Eddy Howe and the the reason for the delay is Bournemouth’s promotion push, as he wants his own men in the dugout.

    Now, assuming they do get promoted to the untold riches of the premier league in England, how to * is Desmond gonna convince these men to leave a rising ship to revive a dead horse?

    It’s 72 days of communication blackout now and no less fascinating.

    Maybe just give RogicToes the gig, with Callum D as his No.2 and TransferBhoy head of Recruitment

    Put your hand up if you remember this, clear as day. Battered bruised and 21 points behind the old EBT Hun club, this man came, saw, conquered. In one season.

    Everything is possible

    I dont think your getting what I'm trying to say

    Its his coaching staff responsible for their success he's just the face of it. Beales the mastermind behind it. Ex players have said the same thing in interviews


    That weird Gonzagabd1 character on twitter is saying it will be announced next weekend

    Different times. First of all, it’s looking increasingly likely that we will ultimately fail in attracting a manager of at least some stature from England (that being Eddie Howe of course).

    Secondly, do you think the man coming in would have the funds available to bring in the players O’Neill did even if we weren’t in a pandemic?

    I reckon we are a year behind and least and that is thanks to the negligence and incompetence of our shambles of a board.

    Sure we are in different times.

    But if You Know Your History

    In 2001 - what happened wasn’t even remotely considered

    And then when Rodgers swept in to replace Ronny in 2016, no one could have foretold that staggering success

    With the right managerial appointment - a new DoF, some key signings and a dust off of the cobwebs of this horror season and it’s not unimaginable that we could see what was a total meltdown in 12 months become a massive success in the same time period

    You think sevco will spend like rangers did that season MON won the treble? Because that’s the only way your analogy works.

    They are a seriously aging team with ridiculous amounts of debt. Get the managerial appointment right and we will put them back in their box.

    Agree. With the exception of Patterson, the only players they have who could remotely be described as ‘young’, ‘up and coming’, etc are Kent, Aribo & Hagi.
    The latter two will likely be away in summer, and Hagi is like a young Nacho Novo - inconsistent bit part player who the Huns wet themselves over because he backs himself a dillion and occasionally pops up with a goal.

    All the others under 30 are average (or just above average at the very best, in the case of the likes of Helander), and are simply well coached.

    When they eventually do announce a new manager, whoever it would be (still convinced it's Howe at end of season, just wish we would communicate with the fans in some fashion), I hope we all treat the club with the same contempt.

    Sure, announce Howe and a dream team of backroom staff, but I'll take 72+ days before I buy your new shirt, or the ST holders will take 72+ days from the announcement of renewals before they give you(the club) a response.



    Even if they pull this out the bag and give us a complete restructure that rivals Ajax, Leipzig etc, even if we win the next 10 league season in a row(sorry, too soon I know), there is absolutely no excuse for the way they have treated the fans this season (and let's not pretend it's just this season, it's been decades now).

    "Shoppers" will * haunt me as a tweet the other week. Says it all for how they view the support.

    Are there any other rumours that he's getting unveiled next weekend apart from that Gonzagabd1?

    That man inherited a team that contained Larsson, Moravcik, Mjallby, Lambert, Petrov and McNamara.

    It's also worth noting when Martin was appointed he was a manager at the absolute top of his game, in a job at the time and in demand elsewhere. He was also given a budget that year that no manager had had previously, or since possibly.

    Can imagine it to the tune of the Wanyama song:
    Callum Davidson, Callum Daaavidson, Callum Davidson. Davidson! Davidson! Woah-ohhh. Woah-ohhh.
