Doom & gloom doom & gloom

jonty they had one good run in the champs league a few years back... recently they get dumped out of the CL and dumped out of the europa at the league stage.
Which is what happened the year before he took over... so to get edged out by fc copenhagen in the CL qualifiers, win their group in the europa and then make last 16 is an achievement.

couple of questions

How would people have felt had we appointed Marco Silva a couple of weeks ago ?
How many people had heard of Marco Silva 6 months ago.

milky, one wonders if they'd have made it out of group stage if they'd not face an 8 year old team from kazakhstan.

perhaps fella, they topped their group, they won in olympiakos - a big deal for them.

Don't get me wrong i'm not defending the appointment as my other posts testify - i'm merely looking for glimmers of optimism!

Reality is it's a punt - some are pointing out other punts that have worked, and it's true this one might too. Plenty don't.

Actually plenty of seemingly sound appointments don;t work either. I'm more concerned at it looking like a cheapskate appointment - the lack of investment in the team that it most-likely gives a pointer to - than i am by the appointment itself.

No problem if the club wants to find a young up and coming manager if it's part of a strategy/plan.

Agree with all your saying milky, its the bigger picture that worries me and the rationale behind decisions.

Dave Moyes wasn't a punt after Sir Fergibald - even touted for by AF - That went well!

To be perfectly frank the manager is not my major concern - the starting Eleven in game 1 is.
