O'Neil aka GONe

I did get in trouble as a child for proclaiming I wanted to be Prince Consort when I grew up tbf

"President of Georgia" has improved my weekend in ways I can't possibly express accurately for reasons I don't completely understand, thank you.

Why is it silly.

I would rather keep GON, than get Bruce.
I dont mind Allardyce as much as some, but he would be massively unpopular.

Cooper no THanks

Do you enjoy conceding 8 goals over two consecutive games against mediocre teams?

Do you prefer definite relegation or the possibility of avoiding it?

You have to split the 2 situations.

GO has to go. Regardless of the next step...he has to go.

His replacement - Little confidence in what we will do. We could agree to the terms for Potter but we won't.
We certainly won't get Bruce or Sam. Cooper is a maybe though.

Bruce is a complete sock puppet, IMO. My childhood beagle had more going on between his ears, and was definitely much better at getting people to like him.
 
Allardyce is about as relevant as Joe Royle.

He's 70 years old, hasn't managed a full season anywhere since 2014/15, and failed in his last two "firefighting" missions. He wouldn't be on anyone's list unless they'd been in a coma for a decade.
 
I’d take Lage back right about now. Played some decent stuff those first 3 games

















Sorry
 
Our mid-season managerial changes have rarely gone particularly well, Lopetegui and Colin Lee are the big outliers:

1994: Pre-Taylor: P36 W13 D14 L9; Under Taylor: P10 W4 D3 L3
1995: Pre-McGhee: P21 W5 D7 L9; Under McGhee: P25 W8 D9 L8
1998: Pre-Lee: P16 W6 D4 L6; Under Lee: P30 W13 D12 L5
2000: Pre-Jones: P27 W8 D8 L11; Under Jones: P19 W6 D5 L8
2004: Pre-Hoddle: P22 W7 D6 L9; Under Hoddle: P24 W8 D15 L1
2012: Pre-Connor: P25 W5 D6 L14; Under Connor: P13 W0 D4 L9
2013: Pre-Saunders: P26 W9 D4 L13; Under Saunders: P20 W5 D5 L10
2016: Pre-Lambert: P16 W4 D5 L7; Under Lambert: P30 W12 D5 L13
2022: Pre-Lopetegui: P16 W2 D4 L10; Under Lopetegui: P22 W9 D4 L9

Given we sack managers, rather than have them poached by other clubs, a mid-season change is only done because things are going badly. I suspect that changing managers has been unsuccessful in part because it takes time to get things right and perhaps more importantly we get the appointment wrong. I live in hope we get it right this time, and let’s be realistic, whoever we appoint is likely to be better than GO.

Sums up our piss poor senior leadership above the manager/head coach for decades and I include the likes of happy-for-the-ride wasters like Bowater and Gough on the so-called board. Plus, what on earth an over-promoted scout who did school links for about fifteen years before being rapidly promoted at Wolves (see his Linkedin profile) to be the Sporting Director is doing.... Just crap after crap after crap. No wonder we usually do bugger all on the pitch relative to our perceived self-importance and name recognition in the game. Mendes might be a bit of a 'player' but my god he delivered whether through Nuno or certain recently well known players. SJH too with the stadium and Compton.

I sometimes see a Wolves fan crossing the road above the subway after matches - we seem to be on similar schedules when the match is over - they look like Colin Lee.

Hell of a looker she is.
 
Allardyce is about as relevant as Joe Royle.

Nothing wrong with being 70 years old Dan;);) but the killer for me is that he'd have that fat scouse twat Sammy Lee on his team
 
Hobbs has got to have chance to get back to Wolvo and tell Jeff what's happened as I doubt Jeff is watching or gives a shit.
