Carrick as an interim for a while would be great. Just don't make it permanent unless we're somehow spectacular under him.

Compared to ETH both of those options sound like godsends
Agreed, just to bring some stability to the club. Evan’s should also be made interim captain.
Tell me about it. But he'll obviously be in their ear.
3 years ago yeah. Pretty clear he’s not that player anymore.
True but he’s on for a top half finish. Only lost to city, spurs and Liverpool so far.
Well I'll be absolutely gutted because they were supposed to be our saviours not make it fecking worse.
Don’t get why ETH would say he’s in constant communication with the owners and saying there all in it together. After the meeting tomorrow he could be sacked.
Think it would have been funnier without the parentheses
Tomorrow evening should be the time. If nothing happens tomoz then I guess we’ve got him for the next game
We drag things out. Wouldn’t be happening if we had gotten rid ages ago
Please don't!
I might be clutching at straws but it does seem like there's a real chance he could be sacked after these meetings today/tomorrow. I'm praying.
If they come out and back him then I will despair.

They might finish 10th or 9th, doesn't make much difference. With United he could probably aspire to finish in top 5, and have a go in Europa League which he might not get at Brentford ever.
Why have we still not sacked him? This is just prolonging the misery both his and the fans. Its quite clear he isn’t up to the job. Let’s sack him and bring the good ole times back.
The idea that he’ll be at a club with any significant resources seems a little far fetched after his Utd debacle.
Simply because he professed an interest and the press seized on it.
That's brilliant.
Probably funny if you're 12 years old. Paddy Power one was actually funny and edgy. That was just a sad pathetic attempt.
Sounds about believable.
Interviewing Thomas is the summer, rejecting him, extending Erik’s contract and allowing him to spend another £200m on players, then sacking him three months into the season and hiring Thomas was all part of our detailed strategic review.
‘As was spending another £100m on central defenders only to play a 36-year-old who originally joined the club last summer to train and regain his fitness’.
How is it pretty clear if the lad is constantly injured and couldn't even have a decent run of games here.
Miserable feckers.
Definitely one or the other scenario. They both have aspirations for the big job and won’t want to taint that with a failed assistant role.
It would be strange if they found it OK that we are on track for a lower mid-table finish and getting knocked out of Europa. It doesn't really align with the ambition to win the league by 2028.
And they're going to get a hell of a lot.
They failed as assistant managers under two different managers if we're being technical.
Although there were rumours that Ole leaned on Phelan a lot and didn't always follow their ideas/suggestions.
McKenna would be great. I’ll be intrigued to see what he brings to the club. If he doesn’t work out or we don’t see any obvious improvement from the team, then release him at the end of the season
Cocks out if the three lads do the right thing.
UCL is far less important than not sacking the manager, this is the United way.
I guess as long as we are not in a relegation fight, he'll be safe. So probably he will be sacked around February-March, when we will be somewhere between 15th and 18th place.
Classic. I called how we were gonna get stuff like how the board is not panicked.
If they aren't gonna panic over a manager that has led us back to back to our 2 worst starts in decades when does the panic start? When we are sat here in January 2 spots from the relegation zone and dumped out of Europa because we couldn't finish in the top 24 out of 36 when clubs like Viktoria Pizen, FCSB, Malmo, Braga, Elfsborg, Bodo/Glimt, Midtjylland, Slavia Praha and Anderlecht all move to the next round?

He has enough of Boro already? Thought he was doing well there?
Well... if some reports are to be believed than it was Tuchel who said "come back with a better offer, until then I just chill". That point seems to be reached now.Interviewing Thomas is the summer, rejecting him, extending Erik’s contract and allowing him to spend another £200m on players, then sacking him three months into the season and hiring Thomas was all part of our detailed strategic review.

The C suite people have a chance to fix their summer mistake. If they talk and decide AGAIN he is going to stay then I have lost all respect and trust I had in this board. At least the Glazers reacted to outside pressure and sacked a few managers.

Haven’t recent reports said Tuchel was the one that rejected us? Maybe this shitshow has caused them to get closer to his terms?
