Lopetegui (sacked 8.1.2025)

by maverick180
I was thoroughly looking forward to the start of this season
Was also prepared that things might take some time and wasn't expecting miracles over night What I didn't expect was a manager who after spending 6 weeks with the total dross he'd been left by Moyes would deem them fit to start in a premier league game And low and behold all of them played absolute shit
We're now 1 game in and none of our new players are any closer to bedding in or learning anything from their new team mates cos they barely spent a second on the pitch, half of them not at all I think it's gonna take somewhere between 6-10 games before we see the team anyone with an ounce of sense would play cos this bloke can't identify shit when he see's it I thought we was handed a miracle at half time when we went in level and low and behold he changed nothing I'm sure people are gonna make excuses for him and say it's too early to judge
But from what I've just seen today, this cսnt is David Moyes in a mission impossible mask

I have to agree with a yt channel (not C&B) and their view that they're (the vermin) trying to get Loppy to walk without paying him off. Public humiliation for twenty four hours, his disgusting ITK propagandists shit stirring, and the bloke now set for a press conference having no idea where he stands with this vile fucking midget

To be fair the owners have always had the tendency to shoot themselves in the foot at this club, from the strange "sacking" of Ted Fenton to the shabby treatment of legends Bobby Moore, John Lyall and Billy Bonds amongst I am sure many others including Grant and Roeder who whislt clearly not the answer in the hot seat should have been treated a tad better. Even the Icelandics made a right pigs ear of it but Sullivan really has taken it to a new level.
This is largely true. The club have consistently treated managers and legends badly. To be fair the handling of recent tragedies, has been good.
Generally, however, managing people has been shocking. And this is where "embrace change" is bollocks. We want progress not just change. Progress means learning the lessons from the past, achieving, behaving and representing ourselves in a better manner than the predecessors.
Sullivan has regressed to Neanderthal standards, plumbing new depths that previous owners, whilst callous, did not reach. It is a bit like going to the doctors with Covid but to be told " No, actually we got your diagnosis wrong, you actually have actually stage 4 arse cancer". A change but not for the better.
We want Lopetegui gone, in the right way. To see the back of Sullivan and Brady? well it would be really hard for that not to be progress.

It was straightforward, leave Lopetegui to just get on with seeing out the season and see what comes of it. We weren't going to be relegated and then decide calmly which way to go from that point with a lot of talk about Allegri possibly waiting in the wings. Instead what we've done is create a massive needless shitshow desperately whoring ourselves about by making an absolute mess of it all.

Four teams in the bottom half of the table have changed manger. Three hoping a change might avoid relegation the fourth, ManU, hoping to achieve a place in Europe next season.
We are relatively safer and not where we were when Bilic and Pellegrini were ousted. I expected Jalopy to soldier on and get terminated at the end of the season, the owners in the meantime working on recruiting a fresh face to step us beyond the Moyes/Jalopy, unable to defend football we are stuck with.
The decent thing would have been for the club to have remained shtum until the moment Jalopy is jettisoned.
The phrases "Doing the decent thing" and "The board of West Ham United" do not even belong in the same language, let alone the same sentence.

Surely, whatever terms of his contract, if The Lop walks he would have a very good case for constructive dismissal?
This is such an embarrassing shit-show; what image is Sullivan trying to project here - a boil-washed version of a powerful, decisive Gordon Gekko type character?
If he is, he's in the wrong era, for starters.

What utter scum whoever made the decision to put Lopetegui in this position is/are. Almost makes you ashamed to be associated with the club.

So he gets the Villa game, we get beat and they can then sack him.
What happens if he wins and their preferred choice of manager accepts the role? You know the divs in charge will get themselves into a bind.
If people were bored to tears watching his previous dull as fuck Press Conferences (which they were), strap in for this one.
"Julen hi, we're all surprised to still see you here, can I ask what you make of it all?"
"Hi everyone. First of all I would like to put on the record that Dildo Brother David Sullivan is a piece of shit who I wish was buried 6 foot under ground instead of my beloved Father. *inaudible whisper from Translator* .. Sorry, 2 foot under! I also think that bitch Karren, you know the one who looks like how you say in English *Translator whispers again* ah yes, a Transvestite has about as much class as a crack whore. And finally I would also like to say just before leaving for good that Tim Steidten has a tiny cock with how you say "no cajones" and both him and Potter deserve each other. Mark Noble though, he is a good lad with his heart in the right place who I would personally put in charge of this sorry Circus. Adios!"

Think the biggest question right now is who but the very desperate would want to work for these cunts who have turned us into a car crash of a club.
Steady on: car crashes are still a sore point around here.

Who are these 2 other world class managers we have interviewed?
Solekhol reckons both want the job, one has recently won the league in his own country plus the super cup? Both have champions league experience?
According to the Bubble it’s Fonseca and Galtier.
world class managers in a world class stadium.
lolz
Galtier is a racist and Fonseca never stays anywhere.

Poor bastard. That press conference will be a proper shit show.
Detestable from the club to do that to him, when it's clear to everyone we are courting a new manager without having the decency to let him go yet. He may know the score and have been fully informed of the plans but still, you let someone else take the press conference. He may have been terrible for us but there are just standards the club should hold itself to. Be amusing if he goes full 'Dildo Brothers' like Bilic did though.

Why would a mobile be ‘ringing off the hook’?
I know Chelsea gave Potter millions but what is the fancy new mobile he has?

anyone seen Graham? has he made his decision yet?
After his failure to get Timo Werner scoring at Chelsea, he's probably trying to work out how to use Fullcrock at left back.
In all fairness Werner hasn’t scored at Spurs, Ladysmith can confirm that.
