Arsene Titman Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 A no brainer- option 1. We can change manager if we start the season badly. The only downside would be that Rooney will have already recruited a load of players Woodley Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MK-Ram Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Ultimately we probably end up in league one either way, based on what we have seen to date. Rooney had a fantastic new manager bounce, which it now transpires was due to Bielik in large part, and it would have been difficult to not hand him the job based on that, but this is a disaster and there is no way he can turn this round in my opinion. The bright side of league one is that if we survive financially (big if), we have an opportunity here to bring some authenticity back to this football club. Names being mentioned in the other thread like Evatt, Eustace, Simpson, Lowe etc. give me greater excitement than Lampard/Rooney ever did. We would just need to hope we are a Southampton and not a Sunderland/Portsmouth. In summary...I have accepted our fate..it's going to be a difficult season ramit, Indyram, ziggyram59 and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavesaRam Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 My concern is that if we go down a division we woll have to watch our own team play the thug football that will be needed down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are your only choices, which one will you take? I'd actually choose option 2 as option 1 would only defer option 2 for another year. Clearly there's not a lot right with the club now but the departure of players this summer leaves us with a comparatively low wage bill, a core of decent young talent & plenty of saleable assets. That represents a real opportunity to rebuild & I don't want that wasted by a celebrity incompetent like Rooney. The reality is Rooney will cling on if we stay up, his deluded belief in his own managerial abilities will mean more months of young talent going backwards, dreadful football & poor results. If it meant dropping a division to shame him into resigning, its a heavy price I'm willing to pay.

BramcoteRam84 Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 If they’re the only choices it has to be Option 2. This club needs a complete reset from someone who knows what they’re doing and preferably someone who has an affinity for this club and will want to stay long term to see the job through. I will be hoping we stay up and hoping Rooney gets sacked. Stay as we are we might survive this season but we’ll be down next season Andicis, Jourdan, LeedsCityRam and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eatonram Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 I want option 3. Rooney stops even though we go down. He proves everyone wrong and we return Phoenix like with a double promotion. The board goes into melt down every time there is a rumour that he is about to leave to take on the job at Everton.

Leeds Ram Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 If I had to choose I'd take option 2 as I firmly believe option 1 will just become option 2 next season. If we fall through the trap door this year at least it gets it over with and we can have a complete clear out from top to bottom.

chezzyram Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Unfortunately a likely scenario is the nightmare one, we go down and Rooney stays. We probably can't afford to sack him as things stand and he may want to stay as getting us straight back up is his only realistic way of salvaging his managerial reputation other than dropping to the lower leagues anyway Taribo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
