Chelsea owner Abramovich backing Grant

tribalfooball.com - March 03, 2008

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich remains fully supportive of coach Avram Grant.

The Guardian says Grant's job is not in immediate jeopardy. Abramovich has too much invested in the appointment of an under-qualified coach to one of European football's top positions to dispense with him after one Wembley defeat. Sources close to the owner insist he has not moved to change the manager nor sanctioned any approach to the Barcelona coach Frank Rijkaard.

Every managers job is 'safe'. Losing the job is like a car accident, you dont see it coming.

'not in immediate jeopardy' sounds hopeful though.

Mean Rafa job safe at the mo apprantly...

Good to see solidarity though that's what we need at this point in time.

bit that made me laugh was "grant's job is not immediately under threat" if that ain't a veiled threat i don't know what is

"Grant's job is not in immediate jeopardy"

Sounds like music to my ears anyway. Hopefully the sacking will go something like this..........

I agree, sacking him now would be a bad move, as crap as he is. It would affect the squad too much.

I remember when Mourinho's job wasn't in immediate jeopardy - he'd just won a couple of trophies. No worries for Grant then.
