Anyone but Giggs. I'd genuinely rather give the job to mickey shorts. Give it to Joyce over Giggs. Giggs out.
 
This, sadly, is very likely to happen.

Only if we're even more stupid than our critics suggest.

Woodward and the Glazers run the club and I seriously doubt they'll be swayed towards Giggs by arguments based on sentimentality.
 
Ryan Giggs is as much of an hindrance than he is a legend at this club. He is lingering around like a bad stench who needs to be removed. I of course admire him (as nothing more than a player, as a person he is a cnut) for all he did but now it's time to move on.
 
I hope not. But wouldn't surprise me at all.

Its pretty clear that we have to hire a man capable to compete against great managers like Pep. Giggs is not experienced enough. He needs to be manager for another club first to learn.

Mourinho is also a done deal.
 
ignoring the fact that that story is from the mirror...

if we are appointing giggs next then what the feck are we waiting for? clearly we're not going anywhere with LVG.

The story also claims that the club sees Giggs as a safer pair of hands, which is just f*cking nuts.

If Giggs was so great, it's seemingly had absolutely no bearing on the team's performances over the last two seasons.

Just fits with the "Give Giggs a role" agenda of the last two managerial appointments.

Could also be a briefing to counter Moratti's comments earlier today.
 
Are we sure Mourinho has done his badges? I don't want Mourinho unless he has definitely done his badges.
 
Don't pay attention to the Mirror garbage, lads. It's been a good day with the Bedy Moratti stuff and the Rio tweet.
 
If we indeed promised Giggs the job, it shows that we are in fact run by complete idiots and we aren't going anywhere for a long time.
"Giggs is the long term plan". Lol what if Giggs finds himself in 7th position in January? How long term does the plan look?
 
Seriously? You all hate Giggs now?

Hate no (as a footballing body, as a person that's a different matter) but when you have a choice between one of the worlds best managers and a guy who has had four previous games in he's managerial experience, it's a non-contest.

I don't think anyone hates him. They just don't want him as our manager and even less like the thought that he might have some sense of entitlement to it.
 
All the foreign media are pretty calm, assured and consistant with their Mourinho stories.
Meanwhile The Sun and Mirror go from United desperate for Jose to not being sure who we want. All within 24 hrs ffs.
Create a narrative. A fresh take to keep this going. Also this way if Jose is hired then the media werent wrong. They were reporting on a choice. They just choose Jose.
Its unbelievable these people have credibility on here.
 
The Mirror and Sun saying exactly not he same thing. Maybe someone in the pro Giggs clan has spoken off the record.

Struggling to think who qualifies as that and would choose the Sun/Mirror to talk to.
