Txiki Begiristain to leave role at end of season

[City Raider]

Interesting if a top DoF at a big European club has committed to us with everything that’s going on. That would be a very encouraging sign.

So that's why Viana turned down RAG?

No because the Rags are an odious bunch and their players are ugly scumbags…

This has been reported before. I guess repeating his impending retirement is just an attempt to report bad news to spite this weeks good news.

Txiki goes.
100% Pep stays.
He’s clearly been included in ongoing recruitment conversations.
Thank you Txiki, fantastic work.
Pep will help bed in your replacement.
Two wins in two days.
Amazing.

What is this modern day trend to call things as “100%” when they clearly aren’t?

Their fans don't like to mention it much but they won a European cup

A very impressive history up to 1910 but not a lot since with only one top division title.

And they had to put up with Ron Saunders as manager to get that win!
