Vitor sacked

[Mel Evo]

Our wanker section of fans would properly hate him too.

Almost reason enough to want him in.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

Wilder is liked by loads of Blades though and many disagreed with the insane sacking prior to them even announcing it was going to be Selles, so there is a big difference there.

Many people felt O'Neill was a poor decision the first time around, its staggering seeing the swell of opinion around him from outside the wwfc fan bubble, no idea how his reputation has improved during his time away.

It’s the Denes Rosa principle. The longer you don’t see an individual the greater their reputation.

Only logic with O'Neil is that they really did believe their own nonsense that he was a coaching savant and didn't want to sack him the first time. Now that we're very likely going down they'll let him keep the job in the Championship.

Only logic with GoN is that his name is being bandied about as a dead cat to deflect from Fosun/Jeff being called out by the national media.

Why are you a “wanker” if you’re not keen on Gareth Southgate? Very strange.

You’re certainly delusional if you think we’re getting him, or anyone close to his ability, in.

 

[divorcedwolf]

I’m not advocating for him, I’m definitely not keen on him.

 

[Lupo]

I know Jeff is full of shit but he said recently that he regretted not sacking O'Neil sooner. Surely he wouldn't re-employ him 11 months later. I would rather we just reinstate Vitor than bring this prick back

 

[divorcedwolf]

I don’t think there’s realistically any chance but it is Jeff.

 

[EnglishBob]

Nathan Jones..?

He's been gone too long.

'They'?

I thought it was just Hobbs who had a hard-on for O'Neil?

Very true. Just scrambling for any kind of rationale! More fool me.

Trying to think if there's any appointment that would be exciting in this context. A good coach like Conceicao will most likely be gone by May anyway.

I could live with that, at least they might leave the club in some sort of good order. Based on past performance the likelihood of a manager leaving Wolves in an upward direction is very, very unlikely.

It's not that.

It's the dickhead "anti-woke" lot amongst our fanbase who boo the knee who would hate him instantly.

If you just don't like Gareth Southgate then that's fine.

The anti Southgate thing is funny, same bloke who’s done more for the national side than anybody in nearly 60 years, reversed the QF narrative isn’t that bad narrative, reversed the playing for England is chore attitude. Turned us into a latter stages side as opposed to plucky triers. Yep didn’t get over the line in 2 finals but England are by far in a better place because of him.
I’ll go as far to say I wouldn’t want him here because he’s to good to have Jeff and these bunch of players inflicted on him.
Pure snobbery for any Pl club mid table or lower to think they’re above him.

 

[prawnking]

I don't think Southgate would be a great fit anyway.

His biggest successes have come getting the best out of stars with lots of talent and egos to match, and we don't have any stars

 

[North Shropshire Lad]

Bet365 have listed Lee Carsley at 12s. No other site has him down at all.

Replying to this pre 4pm post at 7pm so no idea yet if there are subsequent posts, but Carsley would 100% be my first choice.

 

[thisisgil]

If GoN was publicly offered the role and then turned it down, it would be absolutely *chef's kiss*

Or talent.

 

[Wolftone]

Or talent.

Yeah but they have got egos...

 

[Lupo]

There was the odd link to Daniele De Rossi a few months ago, the one about the club considering replacing Vitor with him which seemed ludicrous at the time
