On that basis, the probabilty is high that history will repeat itself if he comes here, with FTers in particular finding themselves desperate for him to be sacked after a while, just as with Brendan Rodgers. ...it seems as if you have not got over Rodgers leaving!!! FT have been aware of Rodgers limitations for some time, even now the stadium attendees still do not believe that he should have gone. FoxesTalk did not bring Rodgers down, I do not believe we were in anyway too instrumental in the termination of his contract. You appear to be demonising this forum, but we were right to voice our concerns, whoever were calling for his exit, the only problem is the board came to a realisation too late. If we do go down and have to rebuild ourselves, to get back up, it will not have been due to the people with the foresight to clamour for change, just the ones who had misplaced blind faith that everything would come right, and failed to say or do anything.

As you say, more than likely the sort of managers who are happy taking it for 8/9/10 games we wouldn’t want. Why not get Shakespeare back for 9 games he's done it before knows the club. I think I've got more faith in him than Stowell and Sadler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are mad if they think someone like Rafa is going to take a short term interim position. All the top (in their eyes at least) managers will want longer term contracts and to be protected against relegation or being fired. Lots of people bemoaning Dyche doing ok at Everton right now, but those that wanted him here wanted on a short term deal till the end of the season. He got a 2.5 year deal at Everton. Rafa having another relegation on his CV - massive risk for him! I'd take Statler and Waldorf (Sowell and Sadler) over Rafa. Rafa won't give a sh1t.

Look at all of the evidence to hand, if you can't make some pretty solid conclusions then that's on you buddy. You can't just have people on hold ready to activate. They will have lists of contacts that they know are interested but the 'meat' in all this will always be the contract negotiation and the timing. We are literally on day 2 of life without Brendan. If the club are hoping for an interim appointment then this is going to make the contract part a lot harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonkeyTennis? Posted 4 April 2023 Share Posted 4 April 2023 Hopefully the club has learned from Brendan not to give really long term contacts with massive, very one sided, pay-offs built in. 18 months is fine, but please God build in a clause that it will be reviewed if we get relegated - I assume that's the norm, but you never know here. On that basis, Rafa would be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you have stated, why do it now, it is now virtually a poisoned chalice. The players do not need someone to come in and throw their weight about, just someone who will keep it simple and let them go out and play.

Question now is giving ourselves that best opportunity. You'd imagine if a short term appointment they'd be well aware of the Potter interest so crossing their palms with serious silver probably their main incentive if no guarantees beyond summer. there are a number of coaches we could try to lure in the summer but we have to get there first as a PL club.
