Temporary? Two seasons in a row that they're this low!


Won a pot last year! But I can’t believe I’m sitting here defending bloody Spurs so I’ll shut up now

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

….if he fails to get this squad up then he’ll do well to hang on to his job here, let alone move to a bigger job.

I can’t see how he would appeal to any Premier League club after two consecutive seasons of failure.

The best run club in Europe have one trophy in two decades, no league title for 65 years and are currently in a relegation fight.

👍


Yep and their recruitment has been pretty terrible - at this point it can’t be the fault of so many top managers.

If they were a well run business they’d have a hugely profitable player trading system like Brentford and Brighton, and reaping the additional financial benefits of finishing in the top 4.

The best stadium in the country without doubt, but shambolically run from in virtually every other area.

Cannot agree whatsoever they’re a basket case in any way. They’re just about the best run club in Europe. And I hate them and always have. There are only a few managers in the world who would turn them down.


It feels like there are only a few managers in the world left to ask who haven't done it in the last few years!

Marvellous stadium. No idea of the financial impact of that, but everyone loves it. Tick.

But apart from that, the way they're run seems eccentric. No trophy for a billion years (that's already a pretty big negative), then they fire the guy that gets them it. And then they fire his replacement after a few months.

17th last season, currently 16th this season.

Surely what happens on the pitch counts for something when it comes to determining how well run a club is?

I dont think its Spurs. De Zebri or a Name for them to appease the fans.

But end of season looks like big shuffle, Palace available, Brighton job looks like it may come up again..... those are clubs that would seem like a logical step for Mckenna. You'd think both would look at Frank tbf.

I'm 50 50 as to if we manage to keep him beyond end of season

KMck to Spurs is a joke surely? He’s more likely to pass them based on current form. Why would he leave a PL promotion fight for a PL relegation dog fight. He’s still got to open his training centre at PR anyhow.

De Zerbi or Glasner would be good choices.

I’m not sure. Unless spurs are very quickly gigging around the top four with an XG of at least 3 each time they play, their support will get after the guy.

Thinking about it, it's not been the manager that has been the problem, it's the supporters. So they need to make every effort to get in Arteta, Wenger as Director of Football, change the strip to red and white...

Frank failed partly because some of the big name players at Spurs didn't buy into his methods. They knew he would be the one to be sacked, not them. Often happens when a successful manager moves "up" to a bigger club. That's one good reason why McKenna wouldn't be a good fit. No chance of him going to Spurs, especially mid season.

I think Glasner has missed his chance.

He goes on some REALLY bad runs! Even last season he could have been sacked after 10 matches.

Not sure the bigger clubs would sit through those runs.

I hadn’t appreciated how well Robbie Keane had done as a manager until today:

“ The club are monitoring their ­former striker Robbie Keane, who has impressed at Ferencvaros in Hungary. He won the league title last season after joining midway through the campaign. His team are joint-top this time out. In 2023-24, Keane led ­Maccabi Tel Aviv to the Israeli ­Premier League title.”

Last year wasn’t failure though. It was expected. Kompany is proof how expectations can be more important than final league positions.

If he doesn’t take us up this season then yes that’s far more damning than last.

Without going back into all that again, last season was embarrassing because of the manner in which we were relegated, not because we finished in the bottom three. I’d certainly call it a failure.

They have two choices get someone in permanently or do like man yoo have done and get someone temporary until the end of the season and assess it then. Glasner might be a good call for them for next season as his stocks high due to the success he has had at palace but then man yoo might take a punt on him which is a more attractive job. Boro manager might be also worth a punt for a couple of PL teams

Ryan Mason til the end of the season, then Poch in my view. Won't be De Zerbi, he's favourite for the Man City Job when Pep calls it a day in the summer
