Your'e the owner

[herbiehammer]

what would you do.

You've just made the great scoop of landing the iconic Olympic stadium so you set up the team with a manager that has never been relegated yet plays the most dire style of football known to man and the vast majority of fans want rid.
It would cost you about A£5m to end his contract and possibly another A£30m spent on bringing in new players for the new manager cos the team that has been set up by the previous manager to play direct football.
Prem football is a must for the finances to stack up as you have to service the debts that have incurred over mismanagement for years.
Would you gamble on getting rid of the said manager who has never been relegated and at the same time cost a fortune to get rid just to appease the fans or would you let the managers contract run itself down as its only one more season left.

Easy for me, first question in tomorrow`s meeting would be,

Sam, you`ve achieved everything we have asked of you, now we want to up the anti, can you give us European football whilst playing stylish attacking football next season ?
You see, we are ambitious, can you or not ?
If not we will find someone who can.

Don't slam the door.

Great response That tickled me

I'd pick up the phone, dial Harry and say, come home son you're needed.
Put a smile back on the terraces.

I'll be honest here, if it were my club and my hard earned I would stick with the devil I know and keep the A£5m and the extra money for the rebuild.

Sorry Herbie but unless Sullivan is a hypocrite he must do the right thing and let him go. His pay off will be offset by the season ticket renewals - believe me as one of them its a fact

[GARNETT]

To be honest I think they`re in the "one more season quandary" they want shot but want what they believe to be security for another season and I think Sam knows that.
I personally think the change has to happen now, 2 season to build before the move.

Change doesn`t mean relegation.

They are also used to throwing good money after bad, the 5m payoff is peanuts in the bigger picture.

The owners would day that they didn't panic and sack the manager like all the relegated clubs and they would appear justified in that decision, however if I was the owner he's feet wouldn't touch and the more time the replacement has in position before the start of the season the better.
This awful turn off events for our club started when they got rid of redknapp and chose roder as a cheap replacement and we have struggled ever since.
I hope he goes I really hope he f***ing goes but the owners have to learn from the old regimes mistakes when it comes to replacing managers

I personally think that they will stick with BFS untill at least xmas , see where we are in the league and take things from there.

They might have more say on the transfer side of things & maybe ask him to play more entertaining football . But I've got a feeling they will play it safe & stick with him for now at least.

They could set him a points total for the first half of the season , if we are safe & play a better game of football, stick with him , if we are not , then he walks.

That would give them enough time to get the right Manager in while also making funds available for him & most likely guarantee next seasons survival.

We all know that the 2 D's are just waiting for their last big pay day . All they care about is that we are in the prem when we move .

Find the right man first. Then sack him. Don't just do it for the sake of it.
