      I think this season showed that what Jose has done in the last two seasons winning trophies and finishing 2nd at Utd shows exactly how good he is.

      As for Liverpool, yes they have a great coach but he has spent €442m why he has been at Liverpool so basically an average of £100m a year to get the squad he has and TBH he probably only has a squad of 14 or 15 players that are any good.

      Net spend is around 90m for Klopp egg. Figure you mention above is very similar to that of Jose’s total spend.
      No comparison between the style of footy each of them play. Most utd fans I know are not sorry he’s gone.[/quote]

      Net spend = we sell our best players.

      And that is another problem. Fans want instant success and have very short memories.

          Tough to control egos as big as those in the game nowadays I expect. Even Leicester players have had 2 managers sacked recently. As soon as you lose a few games they spit their dummies.

          I think regardless of why he gets the boot, Jose is a superb coach/manager as are klopp and pep

            And to say Jose is a myth after a bad season with his record is ridiculous. Be like saying peps shit cos he only manages top clubs.

              Ole is doing a great job isnt he. The players hated Jose in the end and anyone could have turned them around briefly. Soon as the honeymoon ended they have fallen apart again. He didn’t spend a penny as he isn’t in charge of transfers.

              Klopp is a top coach as I said but to say he has done it on that alone just isn’t true.

              I like Jose I’ll be honest. If sticking up for him makes me a closet Utd fan, does that make you a kopite?

                  Springfield Borough, what a mess that made of the pitch too.
                  Again like selling the steel work from the Shevvy End done to try and get some extra income. Again another tip for Bolton, get a lodger in to contribute to help pay the bills.

                  I know, look at the state of the pitch in this video some 3 years after they finished playing there https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLH7pJN1Lb0

                  It does look pretty dreadful here though but given the video above I’m not sure how much blame can be laid at Boroughs feet

                  The thing with rugby ruining the pitch, is that it always seems to be ruined in places such as the 6 yard box, penalty spot and centre circle which are where the majority of football games take place in terms of number of people standing in one spot but not rugby games. You don’t see the whole goal line being ruined for example when 13 blokes run up and down it or the wings that have 4 people running up and down it for 90 minutes non stop.

                  Anyway, seeing as Wigan rugby played there some 30 years before Latics were even founded does that make Springy their original ground similar to Everton and Anfield?

                    Egg free too.

                    Except when it was home to two rugby teams

                        The run in was far from boring TBH but the league has always been about who spends the most money and the Championship isn’t much different.

                          I think he would be a decent signing. He is another who now has 12 months experience at championship level. And with Brighton staying up, he’s hardly going to get in their first team.

                          Apparently we are using some of the Wildshcut money due to Norwich promotion.

                          Wildschut apparently is a free agent on June 30th but he hasn’t done anything since leaving the Latics.

                          Anyone want him back[/quote]

                          Nope.

                          Walton could be a top keeper if he commanded his area more.

                            From players currently at the club, I’d like a squad similar to the below.

                            GK: Jones, O. Evans

                            D: Kipre, Dunkley, Fox, Byrne

                            M: Morsy, L. Evans, Gibson, Naismith Roberts, McManaman, Jacobs, Massey, Pilkington, Weir, Jolley

                            F: Garner, Gelhardt, Windass, Powell

                            Ideally we would then add a goalkeeper, 2 or 3 defenders, an out and out CM and 2 or 3 forwards/strikers.

                              He doesn’t seem to be taking the news well either.

                                The court case is nothing to do with the EFL.

                                I think the fans gripe with them is that they never stepped in to help when they could see what was happening in terms of Anderson running the club into the ground but I don’t think the EFL have the power to do that (or more to the point want to do that) otherwise they would be getting involved in every clubs business.

                                What they do need to do though is actually complete proper checks when people try to buy clubs as opposed to the “show us the money” check that they do now which turns out to be utter pointless.

                                I’ve said many times that I don’t want them to fold so for me they disappear into League 2 and 5 sides are promoted to League 1 instead of 4.
