I think Tommy Treacle is also in the running. Along with De Zerbi.

Imo deZerbi would be a disaster. Bielsa Mark 2. Great to watch his teams as a neutral, but as a fan of any club he manages it must be an absolute nightmare just waiting for them to concede. Tuchel going back would be a popular move as well if the reaction of Chelsea fans in the media is anything to go by.. Although apparently there's a petition by Bayern fans for the club to keep him. Maybe too late for that though.

He's one of the new generation who's seen us win Jack shit so lifting the 3rd best cup in Europe will be a thing to savour. Old cunts like me who've been there and worn the t-shirt before, while loving the Prague moment, maybe not so much, or at least loving it more if Moyes had left then on a high.
But we've had to trade that moment for 6 months of dross, with the good start to the season inevitably halted in it's tracks by his obsession with a small squad and only really trusting his ageing favourites. And happily sitting back with 20% possession so that any team worth it's salt could use us as a shooting gallery. I maintain my often aired view. How we managed 52 points and 9th place is a mystery up there with whatever happened to Shergar.
A wasted year. Two very fortunate wins in North London to gloat about I suppose but not much else. And very possibly making several of our talented youth team think hard about any future in East London.
So each to their own. I didn't stay to clap him after the last home game, it would have been the height of hypocrisy.
When Shrek arrived after the golem disaster, while not looking forward to the manner of it, I knew it was necessary. And he did what it said on the tin. He stayed too long, as has Moyes, yet despite cupping his ear to the booing that time and derogatory comments about the 'academy of football', I'll look back and think I liked him much more.
I had totally forgot about him spouting about the Red Bull model , that was his mantra when he was appointed , what a sad joke that was .Newmarket wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 1:26 pmAnybody that has participated in the fun on here pre- 2 return of the Dinosaurs) will know the contempt in which I held Allardyce .palerider wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 9:42 am I'm sad to say the reaction of that young tit doesn't surprise me.

He truly was a horrible cunt .
But he’s not even in the same league as Moyes . I detest him and everything he stands for .
Not only his cowardly prehistoric brand of football though .
He has been a little bit cleverer than Allardyce though . Sam just didn’t give a fuck and I therefore respect him a tad .
Moyes is a narcissist.
A lying Cunt that managed to get most of the fanbase on board early doors with some of the absolute shite he spouted .
And it’s these things which stand out for me during his tenure . Things and actions (or lack of them in some cases) which will ensure that I detest him forever more .
So , as a farewell to Mr I suggest a list . A list of some of the reasons why the vast majority (imo) will laugh their bollocks off at some of the crap that Noshing whippersnapper came out with above .
So I’ll begin with 3 ….
Winning is what I do .
Red Bull model .
Throwing a league cup quarter final at Arsenal in his first tenure which told everybody which way this was going to go and nobody believed me .
Anybody wish to add any other classics ?
What about the not needing the ball so often? Guess he spent his time here trying, and succeeding in disprooving that.Clayton wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 2:20 pmI had totally forgot about him spouting about the Red Bull model , that was his mantra when he was appointed , what a sad joke that was .Newmarket wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 1:26 pm

Fair comment, but I also have a chuckle when people talk abvout "throwing" cup ties. Most PL clubs treat the domestic cups as second or third rate competitions in which to give squadf players a chance to do their stuff. A chance which they don't get all that often. Granted Allardyce went OTT with his selection against Forest a few years back but imo it's good to see the yongsters get a first team outing and the cups give clubs a chance to give them a run out. In any case all the others do it, including it has to be said, the lower league outfits.Newmarket wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 1:26 pmAnybody that has participated in the fun on here pre- 2 return of the Dinosaurs) will know the contempt in which I held Allardyce .palerider wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 9:42 am I'm sad to say the reaction of that young tit doesn't surprise me.

At least we never had to wait long under Moyes......normally guaranteed the first would enter within the first 10 mins ......or five if we were lucky...Whiskyman wrote: ↑Wed May 22, 2024 1:19 pmImo deZerbi would be a disaster.
