I wonder if Sky will go on about other high profile managers in the stands watching his "last match"?

I think after that shit show 3 nil hammering Lesley Hughes got at Spurs before he got sacked, 95 percent of blues would be in agreement too.
 
The perfect fumble said:
It's not arrogance, City were a threat to Utd, Liverpool and the rest because of our business model, plowing money back in to the club to grow. Now Newcastle will have that same business model and will threaten the same cabal, but that business model doesn't threaten us, it will in time give us a competitor.

And the more competitors you have only validates what you do win even more

Can see Newcastle going down this year and they will probably build from there. There's an assumption that they will spend spend spend but that might now actually happen.

Exactly and if you are not careful you can flush a 100-150 million down the bog very easily. Time will tell if they can break into the big time but for sure they are in a much better place to achieve this now than they were a week ago.

Yes - he lasted 15 months following the takeover which, considering he wasn’t even appointed by our owner, is more than anyone could’ve expected really. Plenty of new owners come into clubs and sack the current manager either straight away or shortly after. We got pelters for the Hughes sacking yet I don’t ever remember Stoke getting pelters for sacking Megson the day they were taken over by that Icelandic bloke, or Al Fayed getting pelters for sacking Micky Adams just after buying Fulham even though Adams had just got them promoted.

I think it was the optics surrounding his sacking which looked bad, him sat in the dugout managing the team as the news of his dismissal and Bobby Manc's appointment broke.

An interesting idea. We have a good relationship with Ms Staveley and, I guess, the Saudis so you could be right.
 
I see the Spurs trust are now questioning the decision making at Tottenham. The fans are not stupid and see the writing on the wall with the Newcastle takeover. I hope an honest journalist picks up the story.

Where has all the money gone levy?

Why have you saddled the club with huge debts?

Why did you not sell Kane for a ridiculous fee?

Why do you sneak around with the red yank owners trying to destabilise fair competition?

Why did you sign up to the ESL?

Spurs being Spurs innit ;)

Yeah, not to mention conceding three against Bolton and Burnley and four vs Sunderland in just a few weeks having bought a pile of defenders. Much of the press crit was about the manner of the sacking, with Bobby Manc in attendance, rather than the sacking itself.

& the fact he wasn’t in attendance didn’t matter.
 
Marwood wasn't well liked by the dan's when he was in charge of transfers.
Will be interesting to see what role he has there if he goes

Yep. It wasn't the sacking per se (Hughes' time had come; all those draws did for him). Managers get sacked all the time. Goes with the territory, after all. But it was handled awfully. Just about everybody (including the dogs in the street) knew that he was toast, yet he was still expected to manage the team and stand on the touchline for that defeat at Spurs. Wasn’t there some bullshit excuse at the time that the hierarchy couldn't get to the UK any sooner than the following day? Like they didn't have access to a Lear jet or five? It was a PR disaster.
