It's great news that IF the rags get relegated that their players stay on the same money.
This means that they have little to no ambition to stay in the top division. Lovely!

Also it appears that sir scruffy has messed up the sporting teams he has bought into and is well into doing the same with the rags.

These are amazing and wonderful times for us blues.

Happy New Year!

I thinkbje confused normal businesses woth football club business.
If you decide to PandO your staff, it's just a mandatory redundancy payment to lose the problem and find other cheap labour to fill the hole.
Difference is, those staff aren't on insane money contract guarantees, and they have next to little book value re: cost of replacement with similar (ideally better) quality.
Add to this the fact that even a slight dip in quality has huge impact on elite level sporting performance, and you realise how fucked he is!

Oh and did I mention the restrictive trading practices he then has to negotiate? Looooolll!!

Although they aren’t Amorim’s players he needs to have it in his locker to get a tune out of them and start moulding them into how he wants them to play. Remember when Mancini came in at similar point of the season with a squad of players that weren’t pulling their weight? There was an immediate uptick in performances, even Wolves’ new boss got a positive response from the players which might even see them above the rags at this rate.

I couldn’t agree more about Bobby's immediate impact on the squad / results / performances.

There was a visible improvement in our defensive solidity in the first few games. And the fact that we were conceding fewer goals backed it up.

He even turned Javier Garrido into prime Roberto Carlos when he subbed him on against Wolves.
 
My chief problem is that however much I detest the rags, I cannot cheer those murderous dole scroungers on. A draw would suit the rags and maybe give them a boost, and it wouldn't exactly damage their twins from Shrinefield either.

If there is a winner the media and the tabloids are going to be fucking unbearable - more so than usual.

As much as I detest that lot from Klanfield, my hatred of them is nothing compared to what I feel for the rags, and our "lovely" neighbours from Trafford need a good kicking, while they are down.

The more pressure that is piled on AMoron and the rabble that go out on to the pitch, disguised as footballers, the better.
 
Talk of going down come on if thy end up even looking like therecin danger you watch what starts happening ...............do not be decked if Southampton are on the wrong end of a dodgy decision when they play each other

The way I see it, any result is a good result. Whoever loses, a bunch of pricks lose.

I think the plan is to get relegated in the hope the players on big money won't want to play in the championship and fuck off

I think the plan is that 27% has a cunning plan; pretend to be working hard at reviving the SCUM whilst deliberately sabotaging it so that he can buy the other 73% at a lower price?
Why else are they doing so shit, so far its working a treat, just needs the share price to tank and then takeover complete.

They get very moody full stop as they don’t have the mental fortitude to handle their team being shit. Having banter with rag acquaintances in the pub or other social situations results in them ending spitting their dummy out or becoming aggressive. When we were going through the shit and bouncing through the divisions they loved mocking us and reminding how shit we were. Now the shoe is on the foot they simply cannot take it. God help them if they did get relegated trying to deal with that.

Nah, the Glazers will realise what he's trying to do and sell to that fake Sheikh, you know the one in a suit when it suited the media and in traditional dress when they wanted to belittle him, that one.
Chemical Jim will then be forced to off load his at a huge mark down.

3 weeks later it will be revealed that the Sheikh doesn't own any oil wells, he's skint and can't remortgage his corner shop. The banks call the debt in, the rags go bust and everyone lives happily ever after.

The end.

Look how much Villa improved rapidly when Emery took over despite them not being his squad. Just walked in and got them playing.
