Clearly I know nothing πŸ‘‡πŸΌ

However I suspect that Jack will go on to be more successful than #ncfc over the next few seasons and this decision will forever be filed as a β€˜sliding doors’ moment

If #ncfc win on Saturday, I’m 100% sure Wilshere gets the job.

If we don’t, I still think he’s odds on.

And I’m ok with that. If he was still at Arsenal and linked with the job, he’d be an intriguing prospect

The man should be in prison.

Years from now people will analyse how the hell this happened as a case study on how people fuck shit up

Stuart Webber (Sporting Director) shouldered the blame for poor recruitment after the first relegation

I believe he fired Daniel as he couldn’t afford to admit that he’d messed up recruitment again

Dean Smith came in & couldn’t turn things round or prevent relegation with the squad he inherited

#LUFC concerns over Farke’s EPL record would be understandable if #ncfc transfer dealings weren’t so tinpot. The guy was sent to war with a pea-shooter… twice

Have been drafting a piece on this for MFW today. I do think JHT’s stance hasn’t helped in terms of managing a group of people but equally the leadership group of players are best placed to understand the importance of creating a culture and setting standards.

If it were me, I’d be less pissed off about being dropped for a game for turning up late (albeit due to traffic) and more grateful that I was still employed after being nicked for drink driving

But each to their own

I can’t see JHT leaving. He’s already talking about promotion in 3 years by way of setting expectations

Mitigation will be the necessary rebuild and overhaul of the squad

But very few coaches would survive his record over the last 14 games

Jurasek apparently can’t match the energy and intensity of a squad which has got the beach towels out

The model means we’ll be selling / replacing every summer. They have to find some stability and consistency in playing style, otherwise transition will be the new norm and excuse.

More worrying is that a top half finish next year can be considered as improvement.

Players out injured
Players who can’t last 90 minutes
Players who want to leave
Players who don’t want to but will
Season over weeks ago

This group is cooked

BUT surely JHT should still get something approaching a professional performance out of them?!

Despite my initial concerns the Chinese commentary on my stream is actually an upgrade on Andy Townsend #RMAARS #UCL

JHT is trying to play 4D chess with draught pieces

But on the bright side, I’ve seen away teams come from 2-nil down to win…

If only we were facing our defence in the 2nd half

Suspect Onel’s omission relates to more than just liking a comment on YouTube.

But perhaps the β€˜final straw’.

At @myfootballwriter.bsky.social we’ve had experience of how closely the club guards its communications and corporate image / messaging.

Decent performance with a weakened squad…

Question for #ncfc fans though. Do we have β€˜gears’?

Seems to me we play a certain way at a certain pace. Can’t remember a game where there was an obvious shift in intensity?!?

That’s 20.

Dominated and could / should be ahead.

Market closed on Sunderland taking the lead before half-time
