Stevo985 Posted May 26, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 26, 2016 Happy. Not my first choice, but a good appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Woodytom Posted May 26, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted May 26, 2016 Genuinely buzzing for next season now. I have to hold my hands up and say, the departure of randy Lerner has made a big difference in my attitude. I was well aware of it being his time to go for a couple of years but I prolonged in minimising the blame I threw his way. I was wrong. This is a new era and I can't wait. Going to attend the most matches I've ever attended so if you come across an extremely good looking bald bloke talking utter drivel, it's probably Woodytom. Just driving back from the gym and life of Riley was blaring out. I suddenly love football again. UTV 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take him over Pearson though. can't you write about the new manager without mentioning Pearson?...... is it assassination by a thousand cuts?

Jareth Posted May 26, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted May 26, 2016 Really hope it doesn't turn out to be Pearson now, there was just something I can't quite put my finger on that felt like he was not a good fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 The reason why most are happy is because it's Not Pearson, Nothing to do with RDM. Sad really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 49 minutes ago, cyrusr said: Ultimately we are a championship club. Given below last club was Shalke and finished 6th he could of argued to get a job in premiership/serie a/la liga etc. Therefore in that respect it would be a coup. Yes you can question his champions league win, but the matter of fact is he still won. He has also done promotion from the league we are in. Only time will tell whether he can do it, but certainly with the right backing he will get us to push for what we want. It could also be argued that it has been some time since he last managed anywhere and it seems he tried to get a job with Lazio whilst he was under consideration for a job and did not get it so it is not quite a coup for me. He is 1/6 now with Coral so it seems he is the choice of our new owner if not possibly those who were tasked with the job of selecting a new manager several weeks ago or quite a few of us on VT. If he does get the job I wish him the luck anyone who would have took this job would have needed. Top 2 is all I ask of him, top 6 is the minimum requirement and anything less than that is unacceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same head that thinks we should be appointing Hiddink or Van Gaal. Back in the real world, people are happy because RDM actually has a very good record and is a solid appointment. It's nothing to do with the manager who apparently I'm not allowed to name otherwise TRO will start crying. If we'd appointed Gary Megson people wouldn't be happy just because it wasn't NP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't offend me at all and my toys are firmly in the pram.....He isn't coming to us anyway, so its a redundant topic .....but, I thinks its embarrassing how much you have to mention that you dislike him....we do know that, you know.

Mantis Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Di Matteo is an ok appointment for me. Not great but not bad either. 13 hours ago, hippo said: I don't want thread 'Hijacked' as it was yesterday - so Ill leave you to work that one out.
