    Hence the word "If"

      Edit: IF it doesn't work out.. Which at this point is a big IF because he's not even the manager yet.
      How? You think people will stop buying shirts or boycott games or cancel their sky subscription? No chance. Didn't happen under Hodgson, not going to happen now.

        You drive the taurus better than anybody else and IMO logically you would drive a better car like an Aston Villa (car references aren't great ) you then prove you're capable at driving that car better than anyone on that level.

        If I worked in admin and did well at my job, should I be promoted to team leader or get a place on the board?

          Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

We'll sell the same number of shirts around the world. The appointment of Martinez won't cost us money. The way he performs as manager could of course.
              I edited.. I mean if the fans are proven correct that its a bad decision, which as everyone should know, isn't definite.

                Fans being unhappy at the appointment won't be a massive concern for them as it doesn't cost them money. The manager being **** would, but seeing as that isn't the forgone conclusion that many are suggesting, the fan reaction will be secondary to them compared to appointing who they think is the best available option. It's not that complicated mate.
                It is a bit complicated. I'm just tired

                  Yes but just because they built a ferrari it doesn't mean they can drive one

                  Everybody would have to just leave them in their driveways as an ornament and say 'hey look at me, I've got a ferrari'.

                      Judging by the state of the world economy, the latter.

                              If we keep hiring manager that fans are opposed to before hand and we get Hodgson results over and over.. Fans will stop going to games, stop buying merchandise.. And do you think the fans from all around the world will be there forever? Not a chance, if carry on like this and finish around 8th the numbers will dwindle. Chelsea have caught up already.
