So will the press give Chelski as much grief for sacking Grant after 8 months as they have Newcastle for Sacking Big Sam after the same amount of time :?
I don't think they will, as I don't think he was meant to do as well as he did, which actually shocked the press & fans :o

Pete,
Please explain what you mean by "I don't think he was meant to do as well as he did"
The difference is that Chelsea are expected to win things, your club are not expected to win anything.

Technically, Grant must be the second best manager in Europe.

Is Roman going to after Fergie then? :lol:

Well when he took over from JM, no one knew anything about him apart from Abramovich who had installed him as Director of Football, then when he took control, the players revolted against him & the press tore him to bits, saying he hadn't won anything outside of Isreal & wasn't even qualified as a Premiership Manager, so that's what I meant by 'I don't think he was meant to do as well as he did' as even with all the crap he took from press & fans alike, he still had them in the title hunt until the last day & he took Chelski further in his first season in the CL than JM did in 3 seasons, so....

As for people expecting Chelski to win things & not the TOON, that statement is so full of bull :roll: , every team, including you lot are expected to win things, whether they do or not is another question & not many teams can afford to spend 100million every transfer window like Chelski can, so yes, they are expected to win more than other but ah guess what, they won exactly the same as the TOON, Mackems, Smoggies & Derby this season, didn't they,.. NOWT :!: :!:

Fair enough Pete, but I don't think it's bull at all. I don't think any Mackem fan expected us to win anything at all.

So you didn't expect them to win the Championship & get promoted :? :? Every fan wants to win, it's in our nature, we always want to be the best, no matter the outcome :D

sorry pete are you really saying that every supporter of their team expects them to win the title? or the FA Cup?

as you know i support boro, whilst i hope to win a trophy, i have no expectations other than to improve on the previous season (which we do not always do) for you to say that every fan expects them to win things is rubbish sorry

Post subject:  Re: avram sacked

I agree with you Smurf. Good honest effort is what we expect, anything else is a bonus.
Our target this
year was survival. Nowt else.
When we won the Championship, we hoped we would but didn't expect to.
Really Pete do you expect your team to win something every season and if you do, why?

Post subject:  Re: avram sacked

Ok maybe expect was the wrong word, I'd hope we'd win something & yes Smurf, hope is probably a better word to use in this context but Chelski Fans expected to win something this season but they won as much as yours or my team did, nowt :lol:

Touche Martin, and Pete you've just moved the goalposts again.

Post subject:  Re: avram sacked

How have I moved the goalposts :? I admitted to using the wrong word in my previous post, that's all, except in Chelskis case, where their fans now expect to win something, thats why Grant has been sacked because he didn't win anything :roll:

I'll say nothing more on this subject as you have managed to totally confuse me.
