Geordie Messiah’s managerial position is hanging by a thread. Again.
Following his ‘Premier League is boring‘ rant earlier this week, King Kev of Keegan has been summoned all the way down to ‘that London’ for ‘crunch talks‘ with Mike Ashley. The Geordie Messiah hasn’t had the best of seasons (winning just four of fifteen games in charge) and the rash manner in which Big Sam was dismissed exemplifies the club’s lack of patience in managerial matters.
So has the facegripping gaffer opened the door for little Dennis Wise to come downstairs, or is the fans’ favourite safe for another season? Votes and comments below, please.
As a Lampard-less Chelsea gifted two points to Wigan (and left my Betfair account emptier than Ashley Cole’s sense of morality), Avram Grant looked to be a man with far too much on his plate. Nipping on his heels as the next candidate to spend more time with the missus at weekends is mouthy Spaniard Rafa Benitez, whose threat to quit amid the boardroom shitstorm at Anfield should not be taken lightly.
So who will be next to go? It seems to be a two horse race between the Chelsea and Liverpool gaffers, but there’s always the threat of Arsene ‘Injustice’ Wenger calling time after a season of slow decay - could the Arsenal conspiracy theorists be right about his departure? And how about Fergie - he bottled retirement after a lukewarm season at Old Trafford a few years back, so why not go out on a high?
