Well it's my birthday today, so ETH getting the bullet would be a good birthday present
Erik ten Hag | 2024/25 | Votes can now be changed
- Thread starter Cheimoon
- Start date
No one knows anything, they are all full of shit who say they do…
My main takeaway from this is that we allegedly spoke to fecking Roberto Martinez
Today must be the day, surely?
Tuesday, Ten Hag's Tenure Terminated.
Please God.
Please God.
I'm 90% certain they'll just come out later today and say they are sticking with him and he's still their guy even though they understand results are not what is required
Terrifying thought isn’t it. Some of the names we’ve been linked with are frankly tragic.My main takeaway from this is that we allegedly spoke to fecking Roberto Martinez
Ineos are muppets. So they wont sack him. And in case they do, you can bet on them appointing another idiot.

Oh ffs
That’s the spirit.
That doesn't bother me as much now as a couple years ago, i think there's less leaks from the club than before.
They are going to roll the dice on sticking with him.
I can live with draws against Porto and this Villa team, it's the performances that make them bad.
Expect us to publicly back him today and vow to address squad issues that prevent him from achieving his targets.
And leak a few totally underwhelming names to tip the balance of opinion in Erik’s favour!

The worst thing about this is even he’s probably an upgrade on ETH.
It inspires very little confidence in INEOS thus far.
In a way, but then a thought Slot was a really underwhelming hire by Liverpool. But I suppose at least it was outside the box and a bit out there. We’re linked to quite a few guaranteed failures.
If Southgate becomes the manager of Manchester United, I'll lose any faith and goodwill in Ineos and stop watching.
It's not worth it.
It's not worth it.
Looking likely it will be Tuchel if he does get sacked.
I have such a horrible feeling that he is not going anywhere…God help us!
Although they should move him on, I'll be very surprised if they do. After backing him a month ago, their egos won't let them sack him right this minute and they'll let him stay till Christmas.
They'll then sack him before the January transfer window, as they won't want him blowing anymore cash on Anthony type signings.

That's what worries me. The likes of Potter, Southgate, Martinez etc. would all be absolute failures. To even consider them is madness.
Look, it's early in INEOS' reign and I think they've made some massively questionable decisions to-date. I'm not fully writing them off, but I can't say I'm enthused so far.
I think this would genuinely be the case for quite a few.
Get Tommy T in and let’s fecking salvage this season!!!
Wait ‘till Christmas it’ll be another season gone and this circus will continue
I'm writing them off if he's here for Brentford
When I read he went on holiday I did wonder if he already knows he is for the axe. It's not an uncommon move to depart abroad before bad news and avoid the press.
Agreed. We are starting to have less and less fans the longer this shit goes on.
This standard of football continues and their bottom line will start to hurt.
Hot take from Laurie there
INEOS appoint the best in the land at board level & we all clamour for elite appointments.
We do and because they talk to people who aren’t the shiny toy of the month it’s all “doesnt inspire confidence does it” - Lord help us.
And to be fair, the past has lead us to an unrealistic level of expectation, Man Utd fans expect the best and we were the best? Why were we the best? Because we had all the money and were streets ahead of everyone else.
Now the rest have caught up and have just as much, if not more money than us, we can’t expect them sort of levels anymore.
Now by no means do I not expect the best, but I don’t expect us to be head and shoulders above everyone because it’s not realistic anymore.
Anyone whos worked with groups like this before will tell you that this will get caught up in meetings, opinions, mis-communication and panic.
They will not be making any swift decisions and the most likely outcome is he stays simply through indecision.
I guarantee their docket for these meetings would be rammed with useless shit that us fans dont give a toss about, things like "whats the budget for the womens showers" or "weve been in touch with x organisation to sponsor our tour next year" and they will spend a good hour or two talking about Dave whos the ceo and how he has an amazing collection of vintage cars etc etc, then as the day gets on a bit, theyll say "right after lunch ten hag..."
Theyll have a relatively quick conversation where they make no decision, realise they cant get anyone but Tuchel and just leave it as is, its already Tuesday and fast tracking interviews wont be worth it as they like to be measured.
Lastly its the worst start weve ever had, getting anywhere near top requires capitulation of 13 other teams and for us to improve massively BUT we are 7 games in so, lets leave it a bit and see what happens.
They are corporate business men and the world of corporate has a reputation of being ruthless, more often than not its slow, arduous and most of the time caught up in nonsense red tape and poilics.
Hes going absolutely no where, us fans suffer, they simply dont get it.

What utter tosh. Fanbase hasn’t dwindled.
If you stop supporting the club because we finish 14th you were never a fan in the first place. I’d still support United if we got relegated and millions of others would.
(& I’m talking “you” as in generally here, not you personally)
I had hoped that was the case but then remembered how confident he keeps talking
Big day today
Reasonable as ever. No overreactions here
