TA -I don't know if you missed it, but I don't see anyone in the press calling for the job. I don't see a high pile of CVs.
What does that tell you?
Whats your point??
Shearer met TG and came out saying "the job wasnt for him"... So he
must have wanted it before he went in.
If as you say he was put off because he has got to totally rebuild the
side, then f**k me, he's never going to go far in management is he!!
The majority of managers jobs become available because the other guy
has fucked up, and left a mess. Going into a football club and rebuilding
in your own image is part of the remit for a modern football manager.
You watch him stick to the BBC now, he's had a glimpse of the big bad
world and decided to stay nice and comfy in the Beeb, dont blame him
either!
Again, you said it's about his bottle and he wants to play it safe.
If he wanted to play it safe he would of signed for Man Utd and never tried to save Newcastle Utd as manager.
West Ham have been able to bring in Big Sam. A manager with a proven track record.
No one seems to want this job. What does that tell you?
Erm I dont suggest he's got no bottle there.
I just say he probably thinks the job is too much risk for not enough reward
i.e... if he fucks up, it'l look bad on his career CV. Dont mean he 'bottled it'
just meant he chose the safer option
