This info came from someone who lives in NYC :shrug:

Hasn’t been announced yet though has it? Maybe I’ve been given duff info :wink:
Tbh, it really is only a matter of time. You are going to be right, it may be they are phoning around for a replacement as we speak.

Red Cafe buzzing with speculation today, multiple binfests . scrolled through a couple of dozen recent posts and found this one.....

"If they sack Ole

They have to sack Mckenna, Carrick and Phelan (all extended their contract 1 week ago till 2024)

Mckenna, Carrick and Phelan Have the biggest responsibility

Ole doesn’t know nothing about tactics and coaching, they did all that (terrible) job"

As I recall Ole had his contract extended only a short while back too, this is going to make Bruce's £8m look like chicken feed !

Sensible business to tie losing coaches to long contracts, in case Chelsea/Liverpool/ManC make a move for them.

Glazer’s/Woodward know what they’re doing :dunce::dunce::dunce:

In football, almost any contract over 3 years in length is a huge risk and I'm including Potter in this. Its great for the individuals who get the long contracts, they can effectively sit back and spark up a cigar and put their feet up but if things go tits up it gets very expensive.

Players can have regrets too …. Kane, Zaha. Grabbed the huge pay rises, then later on virtually prisoners when the owners want silly money.

I and it’s not hindsight, don’t mind that Potter extension. As well as rating him from day one, I doubt he’s on huge money by EPL staff standards, the compensation would be decent, I trust savvy TB.

Meanwhile Uniteds best manager in the last dozen years just got the Besiktas gig.

Four years ago Manchester United were top of the table and eventually finished the season 2nd in the league. A couple of months later United sacked Solskjaer when they were 7th or 8th in November. And the entire English football establishment celebrated the sacking of the allegedly incompetent manager to bring in Ralf Ragnick who was going to change United and English football and so forth.

Hilarious football club.

Best of luck to Ole in Besiktas, he's a great man.
