Weasel 965 Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 (edited) Hope Birmingham are chaotic next season, ending in Karanka getting sacked or walking. Will time perfectly with Warnock retiring at the end of the season and Aitor coming home to take us to the promised land. 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Its a farce mind i can imagine Charlton appealing now as that deduction would have relegated them this season. I can imagine this ticking on longer. Don't think Charlton are really in a position to do anything. They don't have an official owner, so no-one has the authority to start that sort of thing off. My friend who is a Charlton says that they are on the verge of being chucked out of the league due to repeated failures to follow EFL rules and meet EFL requirements.

Can we not hope Warnock takes us to promise land before retiring or does it have to be Aitor? 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Well I'd definitely prefer that to happen of course but I'd be very impressed if he managed to do that this season. Not because I don't rate him or anything, just think he's got a massive task on his hands. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I hope its Warnock as Aitor, despite what he did for us seems a bit of a control freak. That would be fine, but as Gibbo is actually in control It just wouldn’t work. In the hierarchy of the club he would have to accept his place, right or wrong. With regards to this season I do not believe anything but we are going to go for it. He is going to go for experience and steel through the spine, pace and strength up front and a centre mid that galvanises what we have. It will probably be his last hurrah and I think there is such a mutual respect between him and Gibson that they understand the common goal, that the premier league is where we need to be. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

What the hell is that. Can see Charlton trying to fight this, this deduction would have saved them. Thats the EFL for you. Bunch of incompetent bottlers. Is it really asking too much to have competent people in charge, capable of taking swift, decisive action? Link to post Share on other sites

Whether that's a better opportunity or not might be open to some debate like 🙂 I'm amazed any manager wants to work for a bunch of clowns like the Pozzos, just to end up being sacked a few months, or year or so later.

Bygones under the bridge and all that!" Still, it's better for Boro that it happens next season! Maybe so, but my moral compass is still bent out of shape about it. As I recall there wasn't much dithering when Boro got that 3-point deduction that sent us down. Link to post Share on other sites

If Birmingham are going for a promotion bid, they can’t be buying players who were at their best 4 seasons ago. Link to post Share on other sites

I'd actually like to see him succeed. I know he had problems here, but he's obviously a capable coach. Maybe not the best man manager (also has control issues), but there is talent there. If he can learn to curb his emotions a bit and be more of a team player, I think he could be very successful. Link to post Share on other sites
