roversfan99 Posted October 11 Posted October 11 You would be very naive if you think that the Premier League's attitude would be that they already generate enough money. Greed will take over. Other leagues are setting a precedent and global fans will no longer be satisfied with second strings playing friendlies. Eventually English games will be played abroad. Its a depressing likelihood. The only question is when. 1 Quote

Your last sentence proves the point that there is the appetite for a match to be played abroad. It will happen, it’s just a matter of time. Quote
Mattyblue Posted October 11 Posted October 11 (edited) With half the clubs owned by Americans and their wholly unromantic view of clubs as US sport franchise-style revenue generators it’s only a matter of time. Edited October 11 by Mattyblue Quote

chaddyrovers Posted yesterday at 13:45 Author Posted yesterday at 13:45 (edited) The Forest owner caused this madness by sacking Nuno. Ange wasnt the right fit for this squad. They need a counter attacking coach now. That's what their squad set up for Edited yesterday at 13:50 by chaddyrovers Quote
Backroom Tom Posted yesterday at 13:47 Backroom Posted yesterday at 13:47 (edited) 8 games lol 20 minutes after full time, imagine the owner and his head of HR was waiting in the tunnel Edited yesterday at 13:48 by Tom Quote
Backroom DE. Posted yesterday at 13:57 Backroom Posted yesterday at 13:57 (edited) Monumentally stupid decision to hire him in the first place, with a predictable outcome. One assumes that will be that for Ange in England. Edited yesterday at 13:57 by DE. 2 Quote

One assumes that will be that for Ange in England. I agree. It was an utterly bonkers decision to hire Postecoglou in the first place as I noted last week. I watched the last 20 minutes of their game today and it was blatantly obvious that he knew his time was up once the final whistle went. The only credit I'll give the Forest owner is that he cut bait quickly. Dyche or Mancini are apparent front runners. Quote

They need to hire a head coach who suits that squad. Counter attacking head coach. Not sure Mancini is the right fit for Forest. Quote
chaddyrovers Posted 8 hours ago Author Posted 8 hours ago Sunderland deserved praised for their start to the season but also their appointment Le Bris last summer who got them promoted. Quote
Backroom Tom Posted 4 hours ago Backroom Posted 4 hours ago Burnley are winning the kind of games they need to have a reasonable chance of survival. Think their 2 wins came against promoted sides at home. 8 games in and all 3 promoted clubs currently outside the bottom 3 although of the bottom 3 you’d think that there is quality in there to turn it around perhaps. 2 of them with new managers in place as well (or soon to be) Quote
