A new season looms and I cant wait.
I so missed the football over this summer.
Who's going to get the chop first ?
Sad really but I am going to say Glenn Hoddle.
We sold a few players but did not buy in my view any quality players !!
So Hoddle to go ?
What do you reckon ?
from where i stand all the managers look pretty sturdy, its difficult to tell
Glenn picked up Bobby Zamora - scored a hat-trick on his friendly debut i believe - so i think he should be safe
i think Arsene Wenger should leave if he can't hold onto Pires and Vieira - he also let Paul Robinson slip out of his grasp
didnt he make a comment about disabled people or summat!?Quote:

and isnt it more sad that the most powerful man in the world is a bafoon !? ;)
Glen Hoddle for being totally inept in every managerial job he's ever had!!
CBB leave politics out of sports threads, there's a section for that sort of thing. ;)
although not premiership, and not the first either, my bet is that Alex Mcliesh of Rangers will be sacked (or resign) this time next year. ;)
the huns are in financial problems (debt of £50 milion plus and a wage hogging player like Arteta who was supposed to be offloaded)

GIVE US SPORTSWORLD
I still follow the English game even tho my luv is for the MLS...
I back up every 1 who said Glen Hoddle will get the sack.... I also think Chelsea might have a gr8 season due 2 the new chairman.. who is spending like their is no tommrow....
I reckon Chelsea may have a bad start to the season.Quote:

Its ok buying all the new players.. but will they gel ?
DarthInsinuate... Bobby Zamora has never played in the big league.
I reckon he will struggle.
Hoddle will be gone by xmas !
i think Div 1 is a big enough warm up - that Wayne Rooney didn't seem to have a problem scoring goals, having no professional experienceQuote:

i'm thinking Peter Reid will get the chop - Harry Kewell's gone and Leeds didn't do too well last year
I just caught the end of the Priemership last season.. didn't Peter Reid do a poor job at leeds, so why did they give him the job
Remember Hoddle signed Postiga too - he won the UEFA cup so shouldn't have too much trouble in the big leagues. Then again I think Zamora will be OK too.
MetroStars, I'm with you, I don't think Peter Reid will last long if Leeds' season begins anything like their last.
You call yourselves football supporters ?Quote:

I have had season after season of no cups and no hope.
I am a supporter and not an armchair one lol
It's just going to be interesting to see who goes.
I sound like big brother now lol
Peter Reid or maybe David O'leary could be evicted early !
I think David O'leary will do a good job at Aston Villa
You stick to your Ketchup !!Quote:

It'll be the same old season for us. A few good wins in the beginning of the season then straight to the middle of the table! Hoddle aint been that bad but he aint that good either!
But lets hope we've got something to celebrate about this season :beerchug:
Ken Bates is still the chairman.Quote:

Poor Ranieri.. oh and i thought that Russian guy was the new chairman...oh well..
I think Chelsea will wait for Steph Gordon Erickson.
So Ranieri's fate may depend on what England qualify for.
I think Chelsea have offered him about £5m a year, plus paying for his house (about £3.75 million).
The FA would let him go because they are a bit short of cash and could get someone else (an Englishman) cheaper.
like who ? (the englishman)Quote:

SIR Bobby Robson isn“t performing well is he? Or has he got a lot of credits?
Hoddle had to go ,great player,bad manager & Tottenham sacked because he was a pratt in a former life.Lee Bowyer should get his finger out & give something back to B R for the faith shown in him.Dave Jones because Wolves deserved to be promoted NOT. Wenger should be sacked ,keown should be sent to a funny farm,Gazza for the Tottenham job.C'mon you BLADES
yes hoddle has gone from totenham, but it not matter who take them over, they will never be a top six team. next to go will be peter reid because leeds are just utter garbage at the moment. Come on the blades, top of divison 1, get in.
And how long u predict for mark hughes to be sacked from the man city job after this summer? he'll spend xmas home, i predict.
:blink:

No offense to Newcastle United fans, but that job Is a Poisoned Chalice.
Before Graeme Souness became Newcastle United manager, he had an excellent setup at Blackburn and look what happened.
All good managers with good track records have went to Newcastle, and they all failed that should say something about the club.
Really? Where's it say that?Quote:
