Are you sure of your timeline of events? Do you have it as gospel the Ogrens/TA came up with a new plan?

My opinion is that things turned bad between Ogrens/TA and Neilson before his departure, then started turning bad for MM when he started setting up the team to meet the no1 objective which was staying up. For that reason, i dont think the Ogrens/TA have re-assessed a plan for the reason of Covid, i just think they reinforced their desire that the plan should be followed no matter what, where MM raised his concerns and the only thing they agreed on was a parting of the ways was the best course of action.

You really do seem to be hung up on MM jumping into the old job so quickly, but he made no secret of the relationship between himself and the Tranmere owner, and im sure they have kept in touch over the last year. If MM had any suspicions whatsoever that the end was in sight, im sure he would have told the Tranmere owner this, and im sure MM was fully aware of the direction his old boss was taking their beloved Tranmere!

You seem to have totally ignored the manager/head coach contribution to our recent success in your last bit, and while Ogrens put up the money and TA does his bit, its the manager/head coach that day to day has to prepare the team to meet the demands of so many.

Don't know all that went on but I do know from a decent source that MM had an open offer to return to Tranmere. It wasn't an overnight offer like RN

My guess and it's only a guess, is that M was being asked questions he didn't like despite the results, beginning to fall out with TA (Hoti and more, eg playing youth he felt weren't ready) and it came to it's natural conclusion when MM stuck to fingers up.

Thats really the whole point though stoke, but as not one of us were there, we really do not know what the hell did happen! Think it was widely known when MM arrived that he had the open Tranmere offer, and i wasnt surprised he went back for his 3rd(?) spell as manager!

In both cases, i think Neilson and MM had similar issues which previous employers were aware of, which took the pressure out of the decisions to be made when the time came.

I do apologize, but i have this romantic idea that Managers and Head Coaches deserve a specific mention as recognition of their position, not just another coach!

Next you will be wanting me to believe you are not an argumentative dunt at times! Meant in the best possible taste!

I'm actually an amazing and wonderful guy to be around, honest! 😂😂

Yeah we are all different mate some people in life just aint happy.Others are happy enough usually but just go to the football for a good moan takes all sorts.

I'm sure he's probably not as miserable as I suggested but his outlook as far as United are concerned does give off a whiff of depression 😂

A manager probably would, but the fruit was anything but

Re the plan, if it wasn’t changed then why did the fruit decide he couldn’t go along with it? It was a good enough when he took the job on, or did his thinking change when his mate at Tranmere gave him a call, either way in my book he’s a kunt
