I thought the one thing we've learned from this is to quit looking to the past. We need a new manager for today's game. We don't need Shankly or Paisly or Hollier or Benitez or Dalglish. We've seen what the return did to Kenny's reputation. Do we want to ruin another legend?

I know he's dead. I just meant the sentiment in general. Everyone is calling for the past, saying bring back Rafa. My response was more to that idea, not to Shanks. Sorry if I put words in your mouth.

it's simple. Kenny is the only man alive who would get away with the current results. any other manager in the world at our club would have been sacked and with the blessing of ALL the supporters.

Complete and utter exaggeration and hyperbole. The Abramovichs of the world would have sacked Kenny, yes, but not everyone. There are lots of examples of managers that had a poor first season and were given another. There are also lots of examples of teams keeping their managers after being relegated. For someone of Kenny's standing with a club (which is rare) - it is very normal for the owners to wait until the end of a season, especially as he has a chance of winning a second trophy. Perhaps the majority on Koptalk want Kenny out... but in the real world a lot of people are still willing to wait.
So....If we were to get relagated you would be happy for that coach to stay on another season? plus you can't knock Chavs for having ambition, It Abramovichs money he can hire and fire who he likes. If FSG had the same funds they would do the same!!

I sort of agree with you KP, The point you make about being cut throat is how the game is being run now all over europe maybe the world. In fact tell me a sport that isn't cut throat! it's the way it is now. Cash is king no matter what you do, to be constantly succesful it's the only comodity that you need. Even Malaga have now got wealthy owners with a meteoric rise prdicted for them. To make money you have to be at the top of your sport what ever it is, to be at the top you need money. It's a vicious circle but that's the way it is.

sorry KP. I've not made myself clear at all. Now dont get me wrong and dont forget i said this. I DO NOT WANT KENNY SACKED RIGHT NOW. I've said it on previous posts and i'm not about to have a knee jerk reaction right now. I've stop coming on the site as much due to the repetitiveness of the threads, posts and others members just looking for a reaction or an argument.

what i meant was that there is not another man alive in the world that would be given as much support or time with the results we've had. roy was forced out, so was rafa towards the end and rightly so with nowhere near as bad of a run of results as kenny as had.
