I think it's afe to say that, if we had a Chinese chairman, we would be playing in an all green kit and the owl would be changed to a red star Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doyen are the agent for both Jos and the Cakeball and it was recently revealed they negotiated a wage increase and new contract for the "No Exit Via Leppings Lane" woman.

poite Posted November 11, 2018 Share Posted November 11, 2018 DC looked at his cv, saw '2 promotions' and then googled to find out who, what and where Bundesliga was/is. He then interviewed Jos. Jos said 'yes' a lot. He gave it a few more minutes thought and decided his name was interesting so thought he must be the answer. Job offered and accepted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, if anybody starts chucking lettuces at him during the match, just make sure they're not icebergs. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said it before but I bet based on his time in Germany he cannot believe what thefuck he's walked into in terms of professionalism at the very least. Out of his depth is not the right phrase as it implies we are too big for him. Badly suited is fairer as he may have come from a nice clear lake into a murky old pond. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bundesliga teams promoted and was quickly sacked/resigned the following seasons as the teams he got promoted were in relegation battles in their new league, he could never establish a foothold in the German 1st division. The EFL Championship is just as competitive as Bundesliga, nevermind 2. Bundesliga. How was hiring him as the manager of a team wanting promotion to the Premier league justified? If we were going for a foreign unknown manager, why would we go for somebody who's success is inconsistent and in an unequal league to that of our own? Did you question his credentials at the back end of the season or just a few weeks ago when we were sixth. Surprising what a bad run brings to the fore. Why are you questioning his appointment now. I bet you round telling everyone hindsight is a wonderful thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was an unemployed, unqualified, third rater. We were done. Again. Our pants have been permanently down since DC took over, and we are seen as a soft touch cash cow in my view. Not Jos's fault though. Why would he turn down his biggest payday. How do you know it's his biggest payday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my time watching Wednesday this guy is one of the worst managers we've had. And, we're playing terrible, eye wateringly horrendous football with a side capable of much better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, in the Bundesliga, do you get sides at the bottom regularly beating the teams at the top? Is the points gap as narrow as it is in the top half of the Championship? Genuine questions. Im interested to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
