What the fuck are their fans complaining about? Their club is in its infancy and to have a man of Vieira's standing at the helm is quite some coup,they need a fucking big reality check.....the cheeky twats.
Great opportunity for Wilcox i hope.

They should have a joint forum where every thread finds something 'shameful' and/or a 'disgrace', and involves slagging off the current players, manager, coaching staff and, of course, 'happy clappers'.Plenty on here as well....pot and kettle?

I think this is a really short sighted move by the club.
Firstly, I can imagine the NYCFC fans being pissed off. They've got big insecurities about being a "farm team" and want their own identity. Appointing Viera just smacks of giving him experience of managing men before taking the big job at us. The MLS is littered with big names from Europe who managed over there and flopped.
What happens if it doesn't work out? Not only are you pissing off the NYCFC fans, it would also mean he would have to be sacked and we lose a huge asset from the club.
I think the most sensible plan would have been to bring him in as assistant to Pep next year, with the plan for him to take over in 3 years time. I think him moving to New York now makes it look more likely that Pep isn't coming in the summer now. More likely we've got Pellegrini for one more season, and if Viera rips up trees in New York, we'll appoint him in 2017.

I was going along with the logic but gave up at the word 'Pep'.I think this is a really short sighted move by the club.

Considering he was linked with the Newcastle job in the summer and overall they as fans of a premier league club were pretty happy I think the New York fans maybe need a bit of a reality check.
