Headline fit for Halloween thatThe nightmare continues.
What does this even mean? If we draw at Porto and the fluke a win at Villa like we did last year, does he have complete job security because of that?
We are the only club in the world that allows managers to redeem perpetual failure with single games. Insanity.
I can't see us beating Villa especially at Villa park.He will fluke a win over Villa just to prolong it won’t he
Opposition fans are loving the fact he’s still here. Wilcox and everyone that was in the crowd last night surely heard the spurs fans singing ‘sacked in the morning’It's hilarious that opposition fans are also wondering how he's still here and how the standards are so low at the club.
Isn’t it international break after these next 2 games? That’s probably the perfect time to sack and change.I'd say it's done. Likely been told get has these 2 games to save himself but in reality he's gone.
What a waste of season and this fanbase was complicent to how it has gone. Allowing one game to change minds when we had 18 months of games to see he wasn't up to it.

Oh I completely agree - but I don't think that INEOS will see it that way. Personally, I think waiting another month while we (pretty much guaranted) basically write the season off by dropping even further away from a CL place, get knocked out of cups etc., is a much weaker thing to do. But I can't see the club sacking him yet, sadlyI think it looks far, far weaker waiting until their hand is completely forced and we’re even further behind. Much better to get it done asap and move on.
You think INEOS will give him another season? I don’t quite buy into the hype that we’re suddenly going to act like a proper institution and make decisions quickly and without sentiment, but I hold out some hope they’ve got a man earmarked in the wings.
Everything coming out of INEOS so far seems to the same of sort of kool-aid thats regurgitated by our clueless fanbase. It's not the managers etc.
They'll stick with him to try and prove that point

@DWelbz19 remember this?
This does genuinely affect my view of Ineos though. We've brought in all these new people in positions of power, yet they're apparently unable to make good decisions about the manager. He should obviously have been sacked in the summer but it seems that we have the same kind of issue identifying potential in managers as we do in footballers, so when the obvious targets said no we gave up and stuck with Ten Hag.
Is this "reset" the same as the "fresh start under the new structure" ETH got at the start of the season from our fanbase, where we pretended that the last two seasons didn't happen? Does this mean that now we pretend that this season has only started from the Porto match this week?
In most of the bad decisions over the last 10 years. It's funny in a way, how big of a role the club owns fanbase has played in the clubs demise.
It's just as well Ineos acted decisively to sack 250 admin staff and didn't worry about small matters like the football team.
It looks like nothing has changed, and we'll continue to back underperforming managers who clearly aren't good enough, for far too long.
Could be like the game last year where they outplayed us for 95% of it and could have won 5-1 easily, yet we came out with a fluke 2-1 win. ETH fans were incredibly impressed with that performance I recall.I can't see us beating Villa especially at Villa park.
The beginning of the season was supposed to be the reset.
