Ok, I get that this must be an ironic post, but the first line is fairly true, so I don't quite get it.

[Football] Ole Gunnar Solskjaer appointed permanent manager

Ok, so it wasn't ironic. So it's Dickie's opinion - possibly true, but not a given fact.
I understand the point that audiences want to see their favourite team doing well, but that's surely somewhat balanced by the competition being keenly fought by a few sides.

Classic. Caretaker takes job under no real pressure, lets team play with freedom, team plays well, caretaker gets permanent job. I'm hoping that what happens next is the classic follow-up. Team never wins again, manager is sacked. Ole as the Jeff Wood of Old Trafford.
It's disappointing as I like Ole. I hated it when he played for them as he always seemed like a decent lad. I hate it more now because he still seems like a decent lad.
I want that shitbag of a club to fail miserably so the last thing I want is someone who I quite like to be in charge.
The best thing I could hope for is that he does really well for half a season and then takes the City/Liverpool job after some random sacking/resignation. That would be funny.

Must be the end of the line for the former Cardiff manager. With the second most expensive squad on the planet.

Man United board had emergency meeting tonight and they are undecided as to who they can get to replace him.

Was that the long-term supporter on Talksport about 30 minutes ago?
TalkSPORT said they are after Zidane.

Shirley that makes them all routine meetings.
It would be an emergency if the Glazer’s/Woodward/Taggart didn’t meet.
Hope they get Zidane, he’ll be worse than OGS!
Tactically very limited, he’ll be out coached every week in the PL.

Pogba will stay if his hero joins.
A lazy f@cker, their problems on the pitch will endure.

Me and a fella at work have the same thoughts on OGS.
Initially we chuckled.
Then we thought annoyingly that maybe he was the real deal.
The we enjoyed the succession of poor runs ending with a handful of decent results.
It was only a matter of time.
If it is ZZ I hope he bolloxes it up too.
