It's not Schopp's fault that he is here, it's the ones who brought him here ... and the reason he was required. I had no particular liking for Val and his style of play but with good old hindsight, sadly, because the owners gave him a get out clause he left and we had to start all over again, We cannot recruit good replacements every time, as has been shown in the last few years, but because we are under the regime of hire and fire or sell then we are following a plan which will never succeed. We have a bad year and nobody wants our players or manager, we have a good year and we sell and move people on including the manager/coach and his staff. This is all down to the owners' plan. Have a successful year and the successful manager leaves, we never maintain continuity. This is only repeating what we have all said already but with these owners and their plans we will never achieve anything. We are doomed to fail all the time. Stop blaming Schopp. He may be out of his depth but imagine how he feels.
I don’t disagree, but it begs the question, why bother!? I want us to aim as high as possible, not just float along losing manager after manager, player after player with no real ambition in sight!
I've got no problem with the plan it's always going to be 2 steps foreward and 1 back. The thing I'd like to see is a couple of quality loans that help the team instantly rather than having to wait a season for new foreign signings to bed in. The aim of the plan is to hopefully keep signing a better level of talent but there will always be the lull until they get up to speed which is why this season is so disappointing for me because I can't see us going into next season with Styles, Hellik and maybe Woodrow which will definitely be a step backwards.
How do you make money by employing bad managers ? , firstly you have to pay him & his staff up to get rid & then inevitably you have to pay compensation for the incoming replacement & his entourage , what you are suggesting does not make sense
But they’ve not sold anyone and then taken that money out of the club. Their ‘plan’ to make money is by raising the value of the club, that absolutely can’t be achieved by failing.
How much money have they made so far? You think their strategy is to get us relegated, so they can make even less money than the no money they’ve made so far?
I don't necessarily disagree with the OP, but we were only a couple of games away from the club sitting on £100m and a Premier League season. That was the same plan, was it not?
Multi billionaires appoint a manager with a track record of spending little money. Just about sums em up. Im still not convinced theyve spent 1p of their own money in purchasing the club and running it.
