He is a breath of fresh air in my opinion. An experienced "boss". His experience at Roma, one of the world's biggest clubs, will just make him stronger. He is direct, to the point and has it spot on when he says we need to be more aggressive, quicker and more pressing. I am mildly optimistic. Welcome to SFC Ivan. |

First impressions are good. I like what I hear. He looks and sounds like a "boss". Indeed, welcome to SFC. |

The more I read about him, the more he is growing on me. He is a tough guy, he has managed some of the world's best players at Roma, he has managed in Italy's top league, despite a few sackings, he has been successful at many of his clubs, he has a reputation for having a resolute defence, his teams are aggressive, he's a character and doesn't take any sh!t. We have nothing to lose, we are effectively down. Much rather him than a championship dreamer with no experience of managing top players. Last thing we need is a nervous wreck, thrown in at the deep end (Nathan Jones type). By all accounts Juric is a tough, no sh!t kind of guy, could be just what we need, right? He might be a good appointment and whip them into shape. Let's see how he does. [Post edited 21 Dec 10:37]

I really hope it's not him. Where is the logic in sacking the manager who beat Corberan 3 times last season to replace with him? And WBA are boring to watch. It's Danny Rohl or Moyes for me. [Post edited 19 Dec 21:37]

I would be happy with Moyes, especially until the end of the season with a big bonus for keeping us up. Vastly experienced manager. His odds have dropped dramatically this afternoon. |

And yet not one chant of Sport Republic Out. The mistakes just keep on coming if true. Very underwhelming if true. West Brom are boring boring to watch. RM beat Corberan 3 times last season. [Post edited 19 Dec 17:45]

You mean our passionate fans will just walk out miserably on 80 minutes, tutting and muttering under their breath, leaving 8 thousand happy clappers to clap the team off after another disaster? How could you make such a suggestion 🤔 |

I have a strange feeling that we will win this game. We are dead and buried, relegated already, RM here to stay anyway, fans ready to protest. The pressure is almost off in that case, we expect to lose. Watch them perform today and be attacking and aggressive, against a Spurs side also struggling. RM and the team will know that we have to really go for it today, otherwise the place will turn very toxic. That challenge may give them some energy? We will probably get beat 4-1, but just a feeling! [Post edited 15 Dec 9:54]

So our owners and board, are ambitious and forward thinking after all, with plans to expand the stadium and make us into a super power. Put away all the protest flags guys. WALOB. They must think we are stupid. |

I'm not going. Getting beat every week in the PL is enough for me. It's free to watch on TV. We will get thrashed. There will likely be loads of glory hunting idiots in the home end. I don't want to hear that lot celebrating in my face, thinking they're clever beating us again. [Post edited 12 Dec 22:46]

As I have said continuously since sacking Ralph, if you want change for the better at Saints, you have to get rid of the owners. All the while they are here, nothing will change. RM is playing the way that the club want. Keep sacking the manager if we like, but as I keep saying nothing will change because the people at the very top, are still here doing their thing. Sport Republic OUT [Post edited 12 Dec 18:30]

They try to do one thing. And that's make money. They are complete assh0les who couldn't give a f@ck about the fans. They buy cheap, with the hope that we can sell players on for a profit. Instead of buying Smith Rowe for 30 million and 35 million pound striker like Bournemouth and Fulham do, we buy a Blackburn reject for 7 million and Villa's 4th reserve striker. We buy young players.who aren't good enough yet, with one thought only and that's to make money. RM will inevitably go, just like Jones, Selles and Ralph before him. Just like wilcox and those before him. But nothing will change until we get these owners out. They do not do things in the best interest of SFC. They are here to.make.money for themselves, and they are doing a terrible job. [Post edited 8 Dec 20:10]

Glad to hear your thoughts on him. I have always liked him. Vastly experienced Premier League manager. He knows how to organise the team, gets clean sheets, no nonsense get the job done type of guy. Just what we need right now in my opinion. I remember many massive Everton wins against the top clubs, taking Everton to 6th one year? But I have my concerns that these disastrous owners will go for a lower league wannabe again like the West Brom.manager. [Post edited 7 Dec 21:47]
