There goes Julen!

[PuntsWolf]

What’s the fucking standoff that’s what I don’t get.

We either have money or we don’t. And if we do, why are they chopping their nose off to spite their face?

Ultimatum issued by the manager

Jeff looks elsewhere for a manager

Terms of departure to be agreed

 

[jd1981]

Announcement tonight or in the morning, followed by another within 24 hours of O’Niel appointment.

Jeff Shi is a fucking cunt.

Gary O'Neil might be the first manager to never get the backing from the fans and booed in his first game.

 

[jd1981]

Has anyone ever felt this depressed and dreading of a new season than this?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Has anyone ever felt this depressed and dreading of a new season than this?

Yes, when we were absolutely shite.

Or both Lage seasons.

 

[Johnny75]

Yes, when we were absolutely shite.

Or both Lage seasons.

O'Neil would be a worse appointment than Lage, by some distance too.

 

[Alan]

I mean if the players knew on Friday that this was probably happening and they still played like they did against Rennes... I dunno, just don't appoint a weapons-grade dunce as Julen's successor and maybe we'll be okay.

That doesn't take away from just how shockingly mismanaged the whole saga has been.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

O'Neil would be a worse appointment than Lage, by some distance too.

He wouldn't, Lage is complete dogshit.

 

[Alan]

O'Neil did a decent job keeping Bournemouth up tbf.

 

[HanDoJin]

Would rather Hasenhutl than O’Neil if we’re sniffing around the recently sacked Prem managers bucket

 

[Kenny]

Jeff is going to be fuming when Lop walks and he calls up Napoli to tell them Max is available for £30m now and they say no ta.

 

[Wolvensam]

I just can’t see a world where Julen takes a squad through pre-season, drills them, then walks. Sounds either chicken/egg by Fosun and Lopetegui, or O’Neill’s agent doing bits.

 

[Lycan]

We don't just need a new manager if Lopetegui goes, we need a whole new team.

This is a fucking disaster.

Deffo O'Neil's agent has dropped the likes of Crook a line but I guess Lop still pushing for Scott etc and still being told no. Only so long before he says fuck this shit

 

[Templeton Peck]

I'll get behind the new guy whoever it is - not their fault. Unless it's Allardyce obviously.

Absolutely. But this sounds a lot like an agent doing bits for me. If he was going to walk he would have done by now.

 

[Kenny]

Well if he is still here on Friday he will be in front of the press. Doubt he will get 1 question about playing Man Utd.
He is currently saying nothing so better have his best clichés to hand

 

[Kenny]

Liam has been on the phone

[Wolvensam]

I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s why he has stayed away from the press (his mate aside) throughout pre-season to be honest.
