Robbored Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Like many others I think SC days are numbered especially if the Xmas period is a poor one. When he gets sacked - why not try to sell City to JM as a way to prove that he was right all along when he named himself the special one. Ok then now prove it. Jose just might see that turning around a struggling Championship club would restore his credibility in the eyes of the public. Before you :laugh: consider this - Mourinho is already a multi millionaire so money isn't that important to him. He'd get a decent salary of course but the real challenge would be talking City into the PL. Imagine how impressive that achievement would be to everyone. Imagine the media frenzy if JM took the AG job! They'd all go nuts! and raise our clubs profile all over Europe. JM would attract top quality players as well Go on SL give it a go!

Phileas Fogg Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I wonder why more top level managers don't decide to have a go at a small club.. Just to see if they can. Well, I do know why; money. Would love to see Pep take over at Accrington or something though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRISTOL86 Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 If this is actually serious, then I'd suggest consulting a good doctor, pronto! But I'd love to see the look on Mourinho's face when he's told he's got £9m for a new forward and £9 to pay him with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Depends on how long they want to work for, if it's not a long time like Alex Ferguson then they'll want to manage at as many top tier clubs as possible with the best possible pay out.

22A Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 In today's papers, Jose will be paid £250,000 (yes a quarter of a million) every WEEK until he gets a new job. If he doesn't get a job, the payments will cease at the £10 million pound mark (40 months). OK so Jose should have enough in the bank not to need a high salary from City, but he would not be able to attract top quality players if we cannot pay the salary they'd expect. However reading the club's history; Sam Hollis was manager of Woolwich Arsenal and in 1897 secretly applied to be City's first manager. Later that month, Arsenal won 5-3 at Southampton and on the train back to London, he persuaded four of the Arsenal team to join him at AG the following season. He even said "It will be an honour to just to play for Bristol City" and they all agreed to sign even waiving a signing on fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Hitler Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I know it's a joke but can't help myself. All football managers want to be managing the top teams at the top levels, competing in the Champions League, and having achieved everything at club level then may, like Bobby Robson, be tempted to try their hand with an international team. The only successful club manager who will have a go at bringing through a smaller team is one who is either: a) effectively unemployable at the top level and is desperate for the cash b) playing Championship Manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Absolutely. We should never have appointed him without going through a formal interview process and he`s clearly been out of his depth from day one.

... Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 If he took City to the Premier League and Champions League trophy double within three years, I think he could show Chelsea they were wrong. Someone look up the odds on this, stick £100 on it for me, and I'll pay them back out of my winnings. Cheers, mugs. Uncle TFR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
