Popular Post Colin Traive 23,835 Posted April 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 1, 2021 Keep hearing about “due diligence” and both sides (Howe and the scum) doing their homework on the other. Now, five minutes of googling that club will tell you they ran an organised, industrial scale paedophile ring, covered it up for decades and still disrespect the surviving victims. Forget football. Just ask yourself “do I want to associate myself with a club with more convicted perverts than the rest of Scotland combined?” If he takes the job, he is doing so in one of two possible scenarios. First option is that he has seen the catalogue of atrocities committed and concealed yet is happily placing himself in the same gutter by overlooking it and, effectively endorsing their sick history. Or, alternately, he is unaware of their past, in which case, he is shite at due diligence, research or preparation. There is no good option.

Not for the first time this season. Even if they get him keane has already said transfer kitty not big enough. I think it would be a Warburton type appointment - nice passing but not winning enough.

DMax399 3,997 Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Eddie Howe could go either way if appointed. Will be a little surprised if the mhanks actually do get him, predominately because he is not an Irish RC; which largely seems to be their default position. Never mind the fact he will cost a few quid in wages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GersInCanada 7,775 Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Howe is a better choice than Keane. He actually has recent management experience if only at a low level. If given time he could do a decent job for them. However time is something he will not get. First dropped points and the demands for his head will begin. Just hope he gets a cast iron contract at big wages so it will cost them a fortune to pay him off as that is how I see this episode ending. If, and I still think it's a big if, he actually signs for them. Don't much care either way. It's all about what we do.

This is just a ST selling stunt, Howie has to build them from the ground up with fuck all money... Thats mission impossible. Our team which is a level they won't get to took 3 years to assemble..

Popular Post Blueshoff 12,810 Posted April 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 2, 2021 Sounds like the man for the job - And Howe failed to cure serious defensive problems which raised the red flag in 2018-19, when Bournemouth conceded 70 league goals in finishing 14th. That was the highest outside the relegated clubs and even Cardiff, who went down, conceded fewer. scottyscott1963, bennyali, TamCoopz and 3 others 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siam69 27,861 Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Let's be honest, if Howe takes the job, it's a good signing for them. Plus, he has options, so would have to have been promised a fair wedge to build the team he wants. Every Manager's a gamble, and TBH Howe would be less of a gamble than Gerrard was. It'll also get the Declan's back on side and buy Season tickets and merch. No one will know how this is going to play out until the season starts, if he doesn't get them in the CL, he's off to a real bad start already. I'd have much rather it was Keane, but as long as we keep doing what we're doing, and qualifying for the CL is vital, we welcome the chase!

Hes bang average and has zero experience being involved in an envirmoent where not winning every week is a disaster. They don't have money, they spent a fortune paying off the immigrant and will need to sell to make up the shortfall of covid and no European football.

Popular Post BlueSuedeSambas 56,383 Posted April 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted April 2, 2021 Howe is a good coach but there’s a massive difference between coaching an unfashionable team who aren’t expected to win every week into playing football that is pleasing on the eye and building a team capable of the bottle and versatility needed for a title challenge over the course of a season. Thankfully for us, I don’t think Howe has the capability of being the second option, at least not right away because the first year or two will be a learning curve and a culture shock akin to what Gerrard went through. scottyscott1963, Mor3los_1, plymouthranger and 14 others 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
