Guardian saying the decision is made and Ten Hag's gone regardless of the result. Absolutely pathetic this has been leaked out before the final.

Said a few times but he was always a gonner when Ineos came in.

Its felt inevitable for a long time but at least spare him the LVG treatment on the way out

Completely aside from the decision itself, what a stupid fucking time to start briefing it. As if tomorrow wasn't already threatening to be a pointless humiliation.

I've never felt so low of Man Utd like I did with them ditching LVG in that way and here they are doing it again under new part ownership

Man Utd has to be the most leaky of leaky ships.
I can't believe it was intentional to humiliate and undermine their manager on the eve of the cup final but it's a hell of a pattern.

Even if we lose and he gets sacked now, they have somehow made me want to side with EtH even though I don't really think he's up to the job. I hope he takes them to the cleaners. It's quite amazing what a rotten club it is and clearly things aren't changing as drastically as it might have seemed at first.
Absolutely laughable less than a day away from a cup final.

Ok, he's gone so.
This type of leak havning not happened up to now was the reason I thought he might survive as I was 100% confident that if a decision to sack was made then there was no way it wouldn't be leaked.
Fucking super job everyone, right before the biggest match of the season.
Fucking useless pricks.

At least we now know Sancho wasn't the leaker.

God I'm really fucking annoyed about this. Fucking useless. Who internally is letting this slip with this timing.
I really hope the players go out and die on their arses to win that game tomorrow. I really feel time will not be kind on this sacking.
Fucking useless cunts make the wrong decision every time.
Jose contract extension. Ole being made manager full time when there was no need and then also being given the time that we shouldn't have given to him which we're now not giving to the guy we should give it to.

I’ve bounced between in and out a lot recently, particularly with this recurrent midfield setup problem, but now it seems to be upon us I’m ETH in - feel a bit panicked about it (not in a genuine anxiety sense, just in an oh shit do we have to? I don’t wanna!) sense.
Cunty timing for an announcement.
They’ve denied it now but I reckon bollocks the leak has to be real.

Yep, Ineos not prepared for the looseness of lips around anything United. It's Jacob Steinberg reporting so I'd be surprised if it doesn't turn out to be the case.
On the other hand maybe the canny big sir Jim and co have planted a few little traps... ?

I've never felt so low of Man Utd like I did with them ditching LVG in that way and here they are doing it again under new part ownership I suppose given the opposition ETH won’t suffer the humiliation of lifting the trophy mid-sacking that LVG had.

I just feel if McKenna had no links with United previously, there’s no chance we’d ever be looking at the Ipswich Town manager. The people that really want Ten Hag gone, are they happy with the possibility of McKenna instead? The way I understand it, his tactics arent too far off from Ole's even. Plus the players that never liked him are now stuck. I dunno, you can see the problems a mile away, huge gamble.

Will probably be Poch I'd have thought. Don't think the timing of this all coming out is a coincidence.

Interesting comments from Crystal Palace's joint owner John Textor, who is looking to sell his 45% stake having been able to complete a full takeover:
I'd be surprised if he does get involved - MSP seem in pole position - but it's a light at the end of a 777 mile long tunnel to start to hear people talk about the club in those terms.

I have an excellent idea. Don't sack him and ban the dick head from the Guardian for good measure.

Don't worry everyone, with all this uncertainty one thing is there that you can depend upon. Martial picked up an injury in training and won't be playing tomorrow.

I mean we are probably going to get absolutely shat on by City to cap off our worst ever season in the Prem. And I'd definitely be saying ETH should go. He's been woeful this season.
But yeah, doing this jig before the cup final is a piss take. But not surprising. I had said before that people were too soon to jizz themselves over Ineos before we even know how good they'll be. I mean they'll likely be better than Glazers/Woodward/etc. But that's an extremely low bar.

I mean, they haven't really restructured and set things up properly either so criticising them is also premature.

And there is no saying they have actually leaked anything yet either.

Fair enough, might be going overboard. Will find out soon enough I guess.

Oh there is a good chance he is getting sacked regardless of the result tomorrow. I'm just not sure the stories are down to the club briefing the press

Post by simple on May 24, 2024 19:24:18 GMT
I don’t see how he can stay now but I also don’t think its all his fault. There’s so much deadwood and players who shouldn’t be anywhere near a club that wants CL football and title challenges.

Isn’t it possible he might have leaked it himself in order to make sure he’s considered for some of the other jobs becoming available?

Post by retro74 on May 24, 2024 23:40:39 GMT
I said ages ago on this thread that he’d already been sacked but the timing of the leak is disgraceful
Ten Hag is definitely not the problem at United and he has always had the backing of the majority of match going reds
He’s conducted himself well in the circumstances considering he has a group of players who choose to be “injured” if he asks them to make more effort
The McKenna link is an absolute joke, the club should just fold if there is any truth in that
