Pep's contract situation | 2 year extension confirmed! (pg1817)

[meeesh]

I can’t for the life of me work out how you came to that conclusion. Well, apart from him accusing Cheesy of being an apologist for kiddie fiddling the other week and saying he’d DM me as to why that is (still waiting for that DM by the way), and then Cheeseman being the only journo who broke the news that it was looking increasingly likely we had won at CAS the Friday before the official announcement, info that Billy scoffed at as he claimed nobody at the club knew the result until the day of the CAS release.
Now I’m not saying Cheeseman’s got it right this time but if he has, I can see Billy crying about it for months. Or putting it down to a lucky guess!

It was just a thought that went through my mind............. :)

Lu Martin saying that Cheeseman's information is incorrect means that Cheeseman's information is completely incorrect.

Yes. Lu replied to Cheeseman's tweet with "no".

Pretty succinct and to the point. I asked someone I know who works at the club too, and their response was "nonsense" to the idea that Pep had agreed to sign a new deal.

I think those conversations will be had over the next two weeks rather than them having already happened and everything decided.

Well, Pep and the club could have agreed to keep this quiet but Cheesy once again got a scoop from his chatty super source.

I’m not bothered either way tbh...

With the new season literally a few weeks away Pep will definitely be at the helm, I think he will go next year, not ideal for obvious reasons but it is what it is.

 

[chesterbells]

That means he will announce that he will be leaving then at the end of the season,so the club has 4 or 5 month to line up the replacement

Waiting till December suggests that to me too.

Anything is possible I guess!

4 years to win his first trophy and 7 to win their first league title under him despite spending an absolute fortune in relative terms(far more than anybody else in the league) with more playing staff turnover than I could count.

And idiots on here think we should move Pep on...

And don't forget, baconface turned up to Maine Road for a 5-1 mauling with the most expensive team in world football.

Talk of nothing being announced until December is very concerning, if true.
If the club were to make the same mistake twice I'd have to question the decision makers and my faith in them will take a hit.
Which is why I think its bollocks. There's no way we have become that negligent.

 

[Neville Kneville]

The theory seems to be that Pep can only manage for 4 years, because he hasn't been at a club for more than 4 years.

But his 1st club was Barca & his 2nd was an interlude before coming here, so how does anyone know ?

I would have thought it will get done soon, but I wouldn't put any special meaning on it, if it's not done, other than both sides want to see how the team is reacting next season before deciding.

If the team don't respond, Pep will walk, most definitely.
