The problem with sacking Glasner now is that all the clubs plans regarding our next coach are likely to go out the window.
Most of the names we were linked with are in work, and are far more likely to be available in the summer. We could go for an interim appointment I suppose, but who is there that would do a good enough job but yet accept that's it's only for a few months? In all seriousness, it's probably only age that is discounting Roy.
If Glasner apologises publicly then I suppose we could carry on, but I doubt he will, and I'm not sure I want him or trust him in charge now.

Supporting the club and getting behind the team is never in doubt.

Well, the next 10 games can’t be as bad as the last 10.

Parish has called his bluff. If OG really wants to go he will have to resign. If he stays he will have to put in a shift otherwise the job he thinks he's getting may disappear along with our form.
For now it's probably a good decision, for now.

Yeah this. The best I can give to him at this point is cold indifference. The only way that can improve at all is if he starts showing how good a manager he is again and we start winning, he shows that he cares for the club despite his words or god forbid… apologises to the fans.
If not and we continue to lose games in the second half when he refuses to make subs to prove a point I will not remain indifferent.

Replaced with Sarr, Johnson, Pino, Lacroix and TBC on Guehi.
It was impossible to get anyone close to as good as Olise but Sarr has been brilliant.
Lacroix is better than Anderson.
Verdict out on Sarr/Johnson replacing Eze but it's early days and we've spent over 50m on the pair.
He's just moaning at this point. We have replaced players, our issue is the squad depth not the first XI.

You would have to view Glasner as an asset, for the next few months anyway..
He is - yesterday's outburst notwithstanding - a coach in demand and we do not know if another club has already contacted parties to see if they can sign him (Tottenham perchance?) before the end of the season and pay us some handsome compensation. Firing him obviously means we have to stump up cash,
He obviously has some stock with the players too and a new coaching team coming in, changing methods and trying to reorient our European endeavours would be a bridge too far I feel. I think he will go to Tottenham and probably sooner rather than later but it would be funny if his stock falls further in next few months because of his mercurial temperament.

If the board don’t fire him then it puts OG in a challenging position. Right now if he was fired he can point to the cup success and blame our current disastrous form on not being backed. If he stays, we get Munoz and Sarr back and results continue to be poor then even the most ardent fan of his has to conclude he’s the issue. In that scenario his chances of getting a big job are low.
Nice and easy to be in demand when you won the cup and go on an unbeaten 19 game run. Bit of a different case when you can’t compete with Macclesfield and haven’t won in ten and counting. If that becomes can’t win in 14 or 15 and we don’t get into the next stages in Europe then he looks like a busted flush.

Spot on.
The big problem was always going to be that it's all but impossible to replace Olise and Eze with anything like the same level of quality, and in the case of Pino and Johnson (so far, in both cases) the replacements have struggled. That doesn't mean the club haven't tried, or haven't spent money. I wouldn't be surprised if the next manager gets a tune out of at least one of them by changing the system to suit them. Look at Carrick and Man United yesterday.
Personally I'd give credit to the club for signing both Olise and Eze, when lots of other clubs would have been aware of their potential, and also for convincing both to sign new deals and stay with us, and then finally for getting good money for both. Along the way they were a joy to watch and in Ezes case, got the winner in a cup final. Brilliant business all round.
As someone else pointed out on here, the players that left didn't want to extend their contracts with us. They thought they had achieved all they could and wanted to try higher up. EXACTLY like Glasner. Yet he's moaning about them leaving!
What a disappointment. What a big baby.

He only ran his mouth off yesterday because he already has a new role lined up. You don't put yourself in the shop window by rants against your benefactors such as that.
I would suggest that getting fired would benefit his new Guvnors as they could have his services immediately at no extra cost. I hope he was warned today that he would incur conduct fines if he were to carry on with disparaging public comments.

The idea that we can have a squad deep enough to cope with any eventuality is unrealistic. We have cover and we have promising youngsters to bring on. Our progress is measured in decades, not in seasons. So long as we take 5 steps forward to every 4 back we are progressing.
The club isn’t managed by Glasner. The current team is. We are in a step back phase after a huge leap forward. It’s not unusual or unexpected for us. Only fools expect success to be followed by even more success for clubs our size. Glasner doesn’t understand that, or cannot accept it, so he really must go now. I cannot see how he can now motivate the team, having dismissed some as incapable, so I hope Parish is now just playing for a little time.

Is this also in the reported
"It's the worst thing you can have. The first training week since September, preparing and again, with players from the academy, we were 16 players yesterday in training, and then yesterday at 10.30 I get told everything. The set plays were ready for Marc Guehi. We trained set pieces during the week with Marc Guehi, so I think the negotiations didn't start at 10!"

I think his outburst is calculated. If this was the first time he could have been cut some slack, but it seems like it's not the first time. Given that he had already given advance notice to Parish that he was leaving (and presumably an honest explanation of why), then yesterday's performance was pure theatrics. I think he is more concerned with how he appears to the outside world and to cultivate the myth that he has been hard done by, rather than having any altruistic motivation.

He must have done training with Guehi in midfield, at wingback, in the number 10 role and up front. Maybe that explains why we had zero attacking intent in the second half. I mean it must be that and not that yet again we weren’t set up right given the players we have and the complete lack of any in game management

Would it not be wise to give OG a week’s holiday?
Absurd workload the last four months with no let up.
Worrying turn in mood from Friday’s dignified press conference to yesterday’s outburst.
He had a brain haemorrhage 15 years ago, after all.
I’m sure I remember Pep having a week off last season.
Not as if we don’t have a big coaching team.
Apols if any of the above already stated.
