How come we can never afford to sack a manager, it's rumoured to have been this way for the last 4 or 5 now.

 

If it is indeed the case, it just strengths the view that Rudkin and Top need to go ASAP.

If it's pissing money away on dog shit then we'll find the money. It's always when it's money we actually need to spend that we somehow never have it.

We never seriously grasp how important the manager is. Give them a three year deal and hope for the best, basically.

We can repeat this sentiment over and over again but it still won’t happen. Unfortunately we’re in a near-impossible situation: we’re led by a nepo baby owner who just regards running the football club as one of his hobbies (and not even the most important one) but who retains a strong sentimental attachment to the club because his father died at the stadium and is commemorated there. This sentimental attachment is likely making him very reluctant to sell up but he’ll never have the acumen, drive or personality to run the club effectively, leaving us in a terrible stalemate from which there is no obvious escape.

Eventually even the KPFC mob will turn, although we might be in League 2 or administration when that happens, sadly.

At some point he has to feel like a jackass saying the same shit every week expecting people to believe it. 
 

I mean he already looks like a jackass but just a question when he starts to feel it himself

100% willy puller warnock would get more out of this side.

I doubt he would, but it would be enormously entertaining watching him try.

I was Puel in and I’m Marti in. We would still be Premier League under Puel and if you switch Marti we’ll be div 1. Both a bit shit but recognising the financial disaster and keeping players accommodated.

This makes zero sense.

Rumours Nuno getting sacked at West Ham, would you take him here, being ex Forest like cooper ? 

Absolutely, Nuno would be a brilliant appointment. I had no issue with Cooper being ex Forest it was the fact he was absolute muck that bothered me.

I’d take Nuno, I’d also take Emery, Arteta, Guardiola, Slot and co. The club is so far gone they are just as likely. We have no money. Cifuentes is our lowest paid manager since Pearson’s first contract here.

Think about it logically.

 

He has had full contracts paid for Spurs, Forest and if sacked, West Ham (hes on a 3 year deal). He will be absolutely minted.

 

Surely, he only gets coerced back if its worth it. We won't be.

Funny when you say it like that isn’t it! How broken football is that the worst job you do, the richer you are😂 like Graham Potter!

I've been saying it for years. Football is the only industry where you get massive rewards for being a complete failure. It's barmy

Its an immense gravy train if you can get it right. Read the West ham forums and you can see fierce views from them on how bad they think Nuno is. Low block, not playing a striker etc. Many thinking he is now just trying to get the sack and doesn't give a sh1t.

 

Seems like you need to do one good job and a club that is right for you, then you can get 2/3/4 clubs hiring you on 3 year deals that set you up for the rest of your life.

All you got to do is look back to Brendan Rodgers! He totally threw in the towel...He was never handing in his resignation though was he, with a £7m payout at the end of it or whatever the sum was!

Wouldn’t come

Oh yeah I know. But would be a sensible appointment. Set wolves up on the right path from this division.

& where fans would happily welcome that failed manager with open arms trying to put some spin on why they failed in their previous jobs searching back to when they were successful to justify.

The merry-go-round of the same names is staggering

Whilst he is not entirely blameless where would we be under Ruud or Cooper? I suspect pretty much the same position. The fact is the club has been hampered by diabolical recruitment for a number of years. I would be interested to see what kind of players Marti wants in January. 

 

Again whilst not blameless any manager coming in is stuck with the players we have.
