My first choice new manager

[H4usuallysitting]

Mr Ranieri has been appointed, and I'm thinking this could be a very good match for our club, an old head - prem experience...no baggage with new & old player's....still wondering where my wild card Angela Merkel will end up

Merkel had many great seasons in charge. But allowing in too many overseas Players and then loaning them out to clubs that didn't want them, in the end alienated her.

Ranieri hopefully will be a good fit. As long as he is given a chance by the more extreme members of our party. The cult surrounding our previous leader will not be an easy one to overcome. However in the days ahead. If the party comes together then we will see improvement. God bless us and all who sail in us.

On the scrap heap with the rest of the cretins.

There you go again - you won't let it rest  - you simply just cannot help yourself can you ? Unlike some  -  just because some of us believe Joka should have been given more time and are sad  at his demise - does  not mean that we will not get behind Ranieri. For we are true Fulham supporters - just like you. It doesn't suit your narrative  to believe that or admit it I know  - but what will ever stop you trying to grind  everyone else down until we agree with you ?

Wow , Ranieri comes to Fulham with an excellent CV and must be the manager with the highest  profile we have ever appointed.
We are in a safe pair of hands and there is hope of avoiding relegation.

Full marks to the chairman for avoiding a delay between managers, we just couldn't afford that.

Will you lighten up for once. It was a joke fitting in with the previous remark about Merkel and I was likening it to the personality cult that surrounds some political leaders. But all day you have been trying to prove a point that doesn't exist. I get it I really do. But not everything I post is about you. Stop trying to make it about you and your fixations. I appreciate your loyalty to Joka but you really must stop badgering me in EVERY thread. Relax not everything is about you.

I didn't think it was about me and I'm certainly relaxed and just responding to your posts on various threads. Hi I'm just trying to understand on the one hand your comments that  - all Fulham fans knew it was time for him to go and  - the cult around our previous leader will be hard to overcome . There just appears to be something of a conflict between the two statements - which you would undoubtedly pick up upon if anyone else had posted in such a way

Which one is it ? You choose

No you choose. You are the one who sees a conflict in the statements.

I thought Merkel looked older than that.

Dudes, chill. 

I did not want to see Joka sacked but mostly because I feared who would replace him - frying pan into the fire etc.  I am just relieved that it's Ranieri.  So, to the new manager I say 'In bocca al lupo!' (literally, 'in the mouth of the wolf') which effectively means 'good luck'.  A bit like 'break a leg', I suppose.
