[Albion] Tony bloom
- Thread starter South west gull
- Start date
Knocky's Nose
Mon nez est retiré.
He'll have seen this coming long ago. He will be prepared for it and he will have been scouting potential new managers throughout the whole tenure of GP.
Yes, he'll be pis*sed off - of course, but he's got a long term vision for the club - and this will include managers being poached, as well as our best players.
As has been said many times, and something I believe in 100%, trust Uncle Tony. He runs the show, he's a ludicrously sharp and intelligent man, and although we may have some bumps in the road - the plan will succeed.
This essence of this club is the Supporters, and Tony Bloom. Everything else is transient.

Quite right. This is ****ing annoying, when everything looked like it was clicking. But we are in a good position and we crack on.

Indeed the man who has put £400m of his own money into the club.
If you are a fan, which I doubt it just **** off

The first female coach in men's football. I'd absolutely love it.

Tony Bloom is the comfort in a stormy night. He's smarter than ever other chairman, and will never leave us. He is our club personified.
Thursdat drinking going well, I see.
As explained on page one, it was a joke. A reference to the common exclamation on matchday threads of yore that Hughton needed to earn his salt when the result was in the balance. Surprised it seems to have gone over the heads of regular posters but, obviously, no one is doubting Bloom's contribution to the club.
Hope not. Her accent drives me up the wall - which isn't what it should be about, but no getting away from it for me.

Or the other way round? This wasnt all decided in a day! Tony got wind of Potter being tapped up and so he wasn't going to give him the transfer kitty to spend and he'll give it to the new manager in January
Instant rejection of any bids from Chelsea while he’s there. Because they will come. For Caicedo. For Sanchez. For Trossard. Maybe more.

It's hard to think of anything worse than losing our entire coaching team.
BUT, just imagine if a ludicrously high $$$ bid came in for Tony to sell the club [I know he wouldn't sell] but just imagine an American / Russian / Chinese / Arab / Thai owner that could match the buying power of the "top six" [and Newcastle] that would provide a path for us to become part of the top six (7)
Been a bad day, what with HM and the Potter crew departures, but it could always be worse ....

You can tell TB and PB are pissed off. Their statements said it all. I trust them though and their judgement.

Agreed.
Which to me suggests something underhanded went down but they are just to professional not to let it be known what.

Trying not to laught to much on this shit day all round........ but my Albion chum only a few weeks ago proudly showed off his first tattoo to the lads in the pub.
An Albion themed tattoo with rather a large centre piece image of Bruno.
Going by his zero responses to ribbing on whattsapp today we have decided he is at the "not a happy camper" stage of peeved off.

I look at the squad we have now compared to the one we had in 2017/8 and I'm convinced today's would beat that team 7 or 8 times out of 10 with a competent manager
I tend to agree also. This all went down too quickly and smoothly to just happen over a 24 hour period…

Maybe significant that Tuchel got sacked as the new Chelsea owners were approaching 100 days in charge. Seems like they wanted to make a grand statement of change in direction for the club. That would have taken a fair bit of groundwork to arrange
