Kingman Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I would be surprised if we appoint a new manager anytime soon unless its the choice of the new owners! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't agree more, which is why I don't want Steve Bruce! The thought of Bruce/Black next season - no thanks!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Just now, TRO said: But the negativity won't disappear until a new manager is appointed. Naaaah, this is VT, negativity will persist. Then will come the "obviously no takeover is close", "see you in League 2" posts etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skarroki Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 (edited) If we get new ambitious owners, Di Matteo? Worked in the Championship and Premier League, every time he's been sacked it's been viewed as controversial on the whole. Worked at WBA and applied for the SHA job. Apparently still has a house in Warwickshire. Will have good contacts in European football. Edited April 24, 2016 by skarroki 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resigned after leading them to 6th in 2015. They were bottom half when he took over but he led them into the Champo league spots and then won 2 of their last 10 games. Interestingly he was the one that put Sidney Sam and Kevin Prince-Boateng on a form of gardening leave after being unimpressed with their attitude and something happening behind the scenes. So clearly wouldn't put up with what is going on here at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post VillanousOne Posted April 24, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted April 24, 2016 (edited) what annoys me is currently Black is actually making things worse by alienating the players who I think actually could stay next season and make a difference. None of them are worthy of much praise but I still think, Gestede, Lyden, Gil, Vertout, Grealish, Green deserve to be playing more than the awful 11 that is there at the moment. The Okore situation is baffling and as much as I am angry at the player I would still rather see him play than Lescott. Black says he isn't going to pander to the fans, so picks a team guaranteed to lose and will get roasted for it? What is the point??? He's just sticking two fingers straight up at us. Please God get a new manager in ASAP so the few players we do have that might be ok in the Championship haven't mentally left already before we get there. I know the below team would still lose, but at least there would be a fight worth watching! Gestede Grealish - Ayew - Traore Gana - Vertout Cissokho - Toner - Okore - Hutton Guzan subs: Green, Lyden, Sanchez, Gil, Bunn, Clark, Westwood.

mikeyp102 Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 (edited) Found this amusing...all down to Lerner... Game of thrones The description of 'twists and turns and emotional turmoil' could easily be used to describe this season's Premier League, with big teams falling from grace and unlikely candidates battling it out to be named Kings of England. But if the Premier League throws up as many twists and turns as Game of Thrones, then which clubs would be best suited to which character?

Mark Albrighton Posted April 24, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted April 24, 2016 He's been mentioned in here previously, but further talk of Flores possibly being shown the door. Going for a Watford manager who will most likely finish around mid table in the top flight while also reaching the FA cup semi final in the same season as we drop down a division. I have to be honest, the symmetry of it appeals to me. Not sure if it's been mentioned, but as it was Bernstein who said the next manager would be English (or British if you interpreted it that way) do we still think that's going to be the case?

I want us to be an attacking side in the championship. The most recent display I remember from his side is Schalke beating Real Madrid 4-3 at the Bernabeau. So I think he can play with that mentality but I doubt he would in the Championship. His West Brom side that won promotion scored 89 goals in 46 games, which is more than any other team in the league bar the winners Newcastle. We've scored 105 goals in our last 3 seasons in the premier league. Their top scorer in the league was Brunt and the overall was Dorrans, both midfielders. Think he can be exciting when the time calls for it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
