Pep to leave at the end of the season

[Ho Chi Man City]

I think Maresca'll be just fine. As they say over at the swamp, "He knows the club."

He was Pep's assistant when we did the treble, and he did a great job at both Leicester and Chelsea.

If the bald fraud leaves, long live the bald fraud!!!!!

He wasn’t liked by Chav and Leicester fans, that’s the worry, he doesn’t have 10% of Pep’s aura, can see a very difficult time on the horizon.

Saying all that, he’ll still get my 100% support and I’ll be wishing him all the best.

He's been saying that for months, because it's true, he has a contract.
He's never said I'm STAYING for one more year though.

Fair enough. I'm clutching at straws at this point though.

Can't wait for the shite usernames to start flooding in. Maresca's Left kneecap

 

[Claytop]

This is how the parade next week is going to end…

Problem is the manager pool isnt what it once was.

 

[kaz7]

Is it defo pep is leaving ?

 

[blue b4 the moon]

FFS.

Awful news as all the noise is agreeing with that floppy haired twat Holt.

Love you Pep xx

 

[BlueAnorak]

What rumours?

The club are actively preparing for him to go.Read the media articles.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

They have been since the day he walked through door!

The media have love pep and what he’s done.

 

[Cigs&Alc]

I bet he fucking did, but imagine getting into a time machine and travelling to 1998 to tell lads on the kippax that's what the future looks like.

Shit like this pisses me off because the reality is the rise of this club has been otherworldly but because people don’t like where our money comes from they pretend it doesn’t exist.

As if every club owner isn’t a toss.

 

[IrishBlueSince92]

it’s been handled and announced very oddly

If he’s going

 

[Benarbia’s Backheel]

Hoping Linders and Kolo stick around.


Pep, you’ve been here for the entirety of my thirties bare a couple of months. I was a child when you came. I’ve since bought a house, got married, got a dog, had three children, became self employed, had cancer, got better, my parents got divorced… the one constant was Pep winning trophy after trophy at City.

If this is the end then thank you for every minute, Pep

The media cant wait to see our club fail , Pep leaving , the 115 charges , they will go into overdrive now any slight negativity about our club will be front page news , Pep has shit all over the media for a decade , smashing their red 'istree clubs into oblivion , i can only salute Pep and congratulate the club for backing him to the hilt.

I’ve avoided the socials but can imagine lots of supporters from other “big” teams celebrating him going, breathing a sigh of relief, ‘normal service is resumed’, ‘at last’ etc.

 

[paulchapo]

The game isn’t till Sunday - how much notice do supporters need?

It isn't the notice that's the problem it's hearing it from the shitehouse media first, especially the mail.

 

[jrb]

It’s not official yet.

 

[colinthewindowcleaner]

In another press conference he joked about give Lorenzo Buenaventura and the goalkeeping coach 3 more years. Maybe he has at his next club ?

 

[N1985]

One bonus. We might not play that suicidal high line anymore.

 

[citymad]

Not sure why People are not upmfpr Maresca. He's got traits of our last 3 managers.

Looks like Pep, sounds like Mancini, defends like Pellegrini.

Not sure our top players will respect him. I can’t help think this could be the start of some of our top players wanting something new. We really need a manager that has been successful, won trophies and that has the aura of Pep. An Enrique,a Zidane or Emery. Just don’t see it with Maresca.

Currently clutching a bottle of Laphroaig and playing The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore at full volume, but apart from that I'm taking it quite well.

Laphroaig? Horrible cheap peaty stuff. I’m currently sobbing and rocking back and forwards with a bottle of very good Malbec inside me.
It was always going to come but bloody hell a leak before a crucial game? Poor. Poor. Poor.

 

[dadnlad]

Our last Italian manager turned out to be alright.

fuck you fuck you and fuck you lol
