Are we heading for another Roeder scenario?
Is history repeating? From the BBC website June 2001...

Roeder's appointment comes after West Ham's failed attempts to lure a succession of top-flight managers. Once a row over transfer funds ended with Redknapp's departure, Steve McClaren turned the job down, while Alan Curbishley, David Moyes and Alex McLeish were also linked with the vacancy.

It looks like Benitez was the plan which has now been ruined by Real. Moyes doesn't want it, Klopp doesn't want it, Howe doesn't want it. It's looking like we'll have to appoint Bilic as last man standing. I'm worried.

How do you know Moyes, Howe and Klopp don't want it?

No

Even if we ended up with Bilic as other targets didn't come off it wouldnt be the same situation

I can think of plenty of reasons no one wanted to work for Brown.

Re: Are we heading for another Roeder scenario?
Sorry Caister, but to compare Roeder with Bilic is totally ludicrous.
I don't think Benitez and West Ham are a good match whereas Slaven will surprise a lot of the doubters out there.

Brown wanted to pay peanuts which is why he got the monkey.

No dont be silly, completely different circumstance, although!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The irony is that the man who may take over is none other than………………………………..































Redknapp

I think you've only got to compare the names on those 2 lists to see how different the two scenarios are

Fuck off!!!

As if the dave's will let that happen, they are fully aware of what's needed and will I'm sure make a decent appointment.

Re: Are we heading for another Roeder scenario?
I'm quoted in "nightmare on green street" saying that I wad worried about Roeder's cv. He'd been a failure as a manager long before we took the cheap option.

The cheap option ended up costing millions and millions. We lost a generation of stars and got set back years.

Billic is no sir Alex ferguson nor Jose mourinho, but I doubt he'd be another grant or Roeder either

Private Dancer 10:21 Sun May 24
Re: Are we heading for another Roeder scenario?
We have too much money now to allow for something like that to happen again, plus you really would have to go some to appoint someone as shit as him.

A cunt of a thread.

We managed to better it with aram grant 5 years ago

Dog - You are way too predicatable.

Re: Are we heading for another Roeder scenario?
The only way that we'll end up with another Roeder situation is if we end up with Glenn Roeder and that's obviously not going to happen.

He turned us down yesterday.

Re: Are we heading for another Roeder scenario?
I am reassured that although Bilic would be about 5th choice and not who the owners really want, everything will be okay...

Johnson 10:44 Sun May 24
Re: Are we heading for another Roeder scenario?
Let's be fair, the BERKS did employ and not sack Avram Grant. They've also held on to BFS for a season and a half too long.

However we've got the OS on the horizon and have hopefully learnt from before so I actually think they'll get a good manager this time.

Sullivan WILL have to hand back transfers if it's a very big name though, if you're going to go for someone like Benitez let him do what he wants.

Sven Roeder 11:07 Sun May 24
Re: Are we heading for another Roeder scenario?
How about a Sven Roeder scenario ? I was always the better manager in the family

From what people are saying we have been chasing Benitez & if he goes to Real it will probably be Bilic.
That's a hell of a lot better situation than 2001.

Re: Are we heading for another Roeder scenario?
Bilic has a brain...

Roeder was an idiot...

So the answer is 'No'...
