would 100% take him in L1. Must have 4 promotions from that level under his belt.

We need a new manager next season. HP’s prior management experience was in the Danish 2nd division. If we can land a manager who is going to give us the best chance of getting out of L1 at the first attempt then we need to take it.

Celtic winner in 95th minute

That bottom 3 will go down IMO. After a strong start, 2 of the promoted sides drifting back to the relegation spots. Arsenal running away with the title. Shaping up to be another season in the “best league in the world” where the outcomes are known by Christmas.

After Erik ten Hag is Slot the next bald dutch fraud?

Worst title retention attempt ever

100%. I’d say what happens in the next few weeks is the most pivotal moment in shaping the trajectory of the club since Big Jack was appointed in the 70’s.

Jewell I can just about excuse because he did a good job at Bradford, so I can see the method in that appointment. Shreeves was the worst kind of cheap option. After us he managed Barnet and Grays Athletic. Utter fuckwittery in the boardroom has utterly destroyed this club over the last 30 years.

Looks slightly phallic. But fair play, they have definitely hit the jackpot with their owners. We can only hope for the same.

Yes the famous game against Poland at Wembley where their keeper played the game of his life and then Brian Clough called him a clown And Scotland had some decent players in their team that year. Billy Bremmer, Kenny Dalglish, Joe Jordan, Peter Lorimer, Denis Law, Gordon McQueen.

The 1974 World Cup only had 16 teams in it. This one will have 48. Much harder to qualify back then.

Fair play, that was a classic game. Scotland got the lucky break with the soft red but they kept battling every time Denmark levelled. Next summer is shaping up nicely!

Heartbreaking

They are hanging on against 10 men.

Bizarre that a decision that important can't be reviewed but they can spend ages on a pen decision.

Scots have conned the ref there

Didn’t realise how well Norway have done. First World Cup for them since 1998. Great that we will get to see Haaland there (provided he doesn’t score against England).

That’s a fair point. And his first season at Wednesday was reasonable. But then we lost our best players like PDC and replaced them with overpaid, useless mercenaries. Wilson I could just about excuse. Same with Jewell to an extent. That the club then appointed Peter Shreeves, Terry Yorath and Chris Turner was just criminal incompetence.

Going to be very funny watching the Scots go through squeaky bum time.

That’s Redknapp to a tee, and it paid off. Meanwhile Wilson was incapable of handling him. We just made so many strategic mistakes and just as we started to move in the right direction we got bought by Chansiri. Cue another decade of drift. We really need to hope that finally we have some good fortune coming our way.

Weren’t we also in for Walter Smith? So many sliding door moments in those years in the late 90’s that could have averted all the disaster that was to follow.

We are long long overdue some good fortune. Just 50% better leadership would have far better outcomes over the next decade.

Just a series of bad decisions. Selling PDC on the cheap, appointing Wilson (who never managed at PL level again after us), blowing the Charterhouse money on overpaid dross, complete meltdown of the finances, a totally clapped out board during the 00’s who repeatedly made terrible managerial appointments (Where did Shreeves, Yorath and Turner flourish after us?). It’s an incredible story of how a club threw away its position amongst the elite in the early 90’s and has never really had sustained good governance since. I’m truly hoping that ends when the new owner comes in. It’s 30 years overdue.

The difference between us and how MUFC handled Cantona was that Fergie had contempt for the self righteous FA whilst Dave Richards was doing his best to curry favour with them. Yes it’s easier to throw your weight around when you’re Man Utd, but we totally crumpled.
