Of all the big names that have left us in the past, Yorke, Ehiogu, Southgate, Barry, Milner, Young etc. I can safetly say that I resent this piece of shit more than any of them just for the timing of it and the way he has manufactured this move. Dirty, coniving little scrote.
Same old shite. If he wants to leave then so be it.
Yes it sucks, yes he's a prick, yes he's selfish but he's no use to us if he wants out.
This summer gets better and better.
Has a relegated manager ever walked into a more prestigious job before?
A manager who wins a club its first trophy for 40 years takes charge of its biggest rivals within 3 months who is pretty much hated by both sets of fans.
You could not make it up.
We haven't ever been IN with a shout of the top four. Why do people keep saying this. We should be happy to be in the top 6 (or 7 now really) and that's that. We wont finish any higher, its impossible on the budget we have. Plain and simple.
Forget Champions League, a decent cup and a few memorable victories is all we ever hope to achieve without a sugar daddy. Have absolutely no illusions about that.
If Randy gives that idiot the job then he should go back to America and remove that tattoo. I thought this was a bad joke until I saw it on BBC.
I actually cannot believe we have done this.
If it really is true. That we only needed to provide 60m to get Benitez and didnt because of that reason then I'm really disappointed with Randy. 20m of it will come from Young.
We also didnt have Billionaire owners with unlimited cash that could turn mediocre, nothing clubs into one of the most famous sides in world football inside a couple of years and tempt any world-class player to join with astronomical wages.
Regardless of Wigan's poor team. They didnt win back to back games for like 70 matches or something. I dont care what players you have, that is indefensible.
It's actually hilarious that we would turn down a manager who won a club its first ever trophy and then won another club in another country its first ever league title over a manager who got promoted from the third tier of English football and little else.
I'm far from saying I wanted McClaren, but to choose Martinez over him is a total farce. I'm embarrassed that we are even linked with him.
Dreams of Ancelotti last week have turned into fear and dread. **** football, dearly me.
If we appoint Roberto Martinez then we may as well face the fact that we are nothing more than a glorified feeder club with absolutely no ambition whatsoever.
We may as well appoint Phil Brown, Alan Curbishley or Chris Hughton.
I'm late to this but delighted that Randy has ruled out McClaren due to the reaction, lets be honest, on here. To think we actually influence in some way the next manager of our club is a great thing.
After the dark day of SHA winning the tin pot, things couldnt have gone much better between us and them. They bottle nosedive and get relegated and hopefully bankruptcy to follow. We somehow finish 9th and may get Ancelotti.

Carlos Cuellar just said on his twitter that he's had his Ferrari lowered.
Ferrari = Car
Lowered = Low = Lo
Car + Lo

HE'S COMING!!!!!!! :notworthy:
Fans who wouldn't be completely over the moon and ecstatic if we got McClown are strange.
Fans who don't want McClown should be sectioned.
just because you say it doesn't make it true.
Of course not but I would love to hear people try and talk away potentially the most successful and experienced manager this club would ever have had. To me its insane.
