  1. 1. Should Steve Kean stay or go



Recommended Posts

If Sam's team had have done what Kean's team did in the last 15 minutes on Saturday, some on here would have been incandescent with rage.

And how do you know that most weren't? I was certainly angry about it, but i also totally understood where the players were coming from. With our captain and the guy credited with propping up our midfield off the pitch as well as, when he's fit, our most likely scorer, nobody wanted to risk annoying Utd because they could and possibly would have punished us - it could only have taken one ball from Scholes to Berbatov. Doesn't make it right just as taking the ball into the corners against Wolves didn't feel right, but understandable yes. 3 points would have been great; 1 was still better than 0

Much as I dislike Kean as both person and manager (as a person the way he smugly comes accross taking many positives from other peoples work) I cant knock those tactics against both Wolves or Man U, indeed, if we had deployed the ball to the corner tactics at West Ham, we would be on 42 points now!!

I think a point against them is a good point and one I would have taken prior to the match so realistically, cant knock either players or manager for standing off Utd, to commit ourselves forward as Gumboots rightly states could have left us open for the telling ball, likewise for United, they had the title and sheer professionalism told them to take no risks.

Kean is quoted in the press as saying that he's confident that we will "get at least a point" against Wolves. He does realise that we could still go down with Wolves in that situation----doesn't he?

If we draw at wolves and go down. It would mean wolves and rovers go down and ALL the teams below us have won. Rovers goal average is better than wolves.

Isn't that what he said?

I don't know, but he'll probably be happy just to get another positive result.

If we lose he better not be positive lol

"we are disappointed to get relegated after 6 positive results in 10 games."

There are not many other teams in the league with 6 positive results in recent times - possibly the feel good factor is finally coming back?

At least we are not bottom of the form guide anymore - Kean is improving

I have alluded to this before in previous posts but nobody has picked up my point and pushed me for more (possibly coz i'm a nob).

My posts regarding the manager have been condemning, mocking and maybe abusive at times, but I have my reasons and perhaps know more than some about how the man operates.

Venkys really could not have done more to get us relegated and continuation with this manager will result in the ruination of the club, rest assured.

As bad a thing to do this could be good for us, it offers Venkys a way out should they want it without going back on what they have said previously.
