Chelsea's board = a disgrace

[Henri 115]

That's one prime example of Roman's thin-wearing patience on top class managers. Either that, or the expectations of the club are ridiculusly high (which, to be fair, they are). If Carlo's credentials were available to the footballing world (i.e. he had no club, but had the tactical mettal to just go to any club and promote them) I bet a club like West Ham would break the bank to aquire his services. The point I'm making, is rather than stick with a manager, who enjoys managing the club, despite not winning anything in a season, and quite a large chunk of that season goes tits up, Roman just disposes of them like worn out sandpaper. They look good once they first start out, then when there's any sign of wearing out, it just gets chucked.

I don't think Roman understands the true meaning of "the long run". If a manager is kept at a club for long enough, he will understand the setup more. He will understand the type of players to buy every summer/January period. He will understand the formations to pick every week, and he will learn to take responsibility of the players regarding their performance.

Well said. What really worries me are us fans not saying jack shit about it?. My opinion is that its the wrong banners hanging at Stamford. This guys can do what he wants and we all says da, instead of nyeh.

I faith Roman's done what he feels is the best for this club.

The Ancleotti model was clearly wrong in the long-term future of this club and I'm sure Abramovich now knows what he wants from a manager. I'd be interested in seeing what happens over the course of this transfer window before pulling out the "disgrace" word.

Abramovich is a DISGRACE, and all his Disciple makes me sick!.

Mourinho was at Chelsea for long enough to be in that sort of position, too bad he fell out with the board because of disagreements. Otherwise, we would still have him as manager today!

There are rumors that Valdano is going to be sacked. RM clearly want to please Jose.

I can't help but think that the model of this season wasn't his own idea. Why don't they take some responsability for this failure.

And where would we be without him? Struggling with enormous debts & battling for a top place finish.

Saying Roman is a disgrace is really stupid. Sure he shoots himself in the foot every now and then but you shouldn't have anything other than enormous respect and love for him. He truly loves the club and you can see it. It's not a mere business to him. He's the real special one.

I would have liked Ancelotti to have been given another season - or even half a season - to see if he could turn things around. Surely it can't be good for the team to have had so many different managers over such a relatively short period.

Might not even be in this division if the finances at the time were to be believed.

Bad idea. It would be worst to sack him at the midway of the season.

you say he loves the Club ...I think he loves owning the team .. A slightly different thing , Mathew Harding loved the Club

From RedCafe, the forum for the other club I support:

Great manager, great man, great decision for Manchester United.

Goodie goodie gum drops. Chelsea will be less of a threat next year.

They just never learn that continuity breeds success.

Why would a manager go to Chelsea now for anything other than a payout, ridiculous club with a shit for brains owner.

Roman Abramovich is an absolute idiot. Ancelotti is a fantastic manager and should have been given a chance to build a squad rather than sacked for not winning one season.

The whole world can fuck off.

The club will replace Ancelotti with someone who will be much better in their eyes. When they bring success you will all cheer, just like you did under Mourinho's success & under Ancelotti's success.
