I feel sorry for Reuben Selles

[Vass Borbokis]

Jesus Fucking Christ.

He's going to get a whopper of a payout when he finally gets the boot, for not even 4 months 'work'.
Don't feel sorry for the useless waste of space one bit, nobody should.

 

[HOT CURRIE 10]

Everything’s wrong,hurried wrong appointment,wrong approach to the season (unprepared),wrong tactics,wrong shape,wrong positioning of players,and worst of all,wrong attitude of the players,it stinks. The owners are to blame for this shitshow with a knowledge of English football management and planning of amateurs.

 

[FTPE]

No, I agree.
I 100% want him gone, but I'd never disrespect a United manager like that.

 

[Stanthemanfan]

I'm angry at him but the players have thrown him under the bus and downed tools

 

[ilovesufc]

I don't feel sorry for him. He shite and he can fuck off. Also seriously I've just had a mod warning for this message. I thought we could say what we can't on this forum as long as we aren't abusing each other???

Did it warn you at the bottom of your screen? It does that if you post a naughty word, but it’s not stopping you from posting it.

Yes! Been on this forum for years and never seen that. Maybe it's the "Ruben Effect"

You need to post more, the fucking thing is always telling me off.

Maybe I just need to swear more. In real life I'd be getting modded all the bloody time!

Because they've gone from a "proper football man" who took the bullets for them, to a twat who showed them up after losing to BC on the first game..

Standing the third best team of last season up on the pitch and embarrassing thier (egos) having never played a game as a professional..

Lost that dressing room first day..

Think Ted Lasso..except its not a daydream / fairy story. #COH yahoo!

 

[Fuzzybear]

I wonder how many managers have been sacked from clubs having gained zero points during their tenure.

 

[Yoonitedite]

To be fair, this porch is really nice.

Ya could park 3 Robin Reliant's on there

But have they done it for the right reasons!?

 

[Silky Sabella]

Some of our fans singing sacked in the morning. It is a little bit disrespectful in my opinion and I definitely wouldn’t have been joining in on the chants.

If we think about it outside of football, the guy has probably bought a house in Sheffield and tried to settle down there, his kids probably trying to get used to a brand new school. He expected things to work out for him and his family and it hasn’t. I overall do feel sorry for him.

I’m not saying he shouldn’t be sacked at all, because he should. But I am also looking at it as life in general and I bet he’s going through a hard time at the moment.

So pleased silkblade you are showing some humanity, pity some of the morons on here can't follow your attitude. Would like to see how they would react if one of their family members was being PERSONALLY ABUSED,!

What about them fans paying 100s of pound to see that shit AGAIN?

I wouldn’t abuse Selles if he was in the park, or the dairy aisle in Tesco for example. I will happily sing about his imminent unemployment if he’s still in charge for the Charlton game though, probably just after they bang their first goal in.

Moronic? No, I’m expressing my freedom of speech at a football match I’ve paid to see. Should Selles want to come and hurl abuse at me on Monday if he thinks I’m not doing my job properly he’s more than welcome to if he buys a ticket and perhaps even eats a terrible pie beforehand.

 

[Paulus]

These yanks need to eat some humble pie and understand exactly what they’ve bought into. Pretty obvious that they didn’t have a clue, they need to learn and fast.

 

[Blade56]

I don’t, took wilder a few years to get his Aldi carrier bag full of money and nip out the back door. Selles will do it after 5 games

 

[Almosthuman]

Agree with OP, he seems like a decent bloke. Takes the criticism. I really wanted him to do well. But he has to go… not because he’s a twat or anything… it’s just not worked out.

 

[I should coco]

I wonder how many managers have been sacked from clubs having gained zero points during their tenure.

An excellent trivia question.

Even fuckwits like Weir, Adkins, Robson and Heath ,couldn't manage that.

Well done Ruben- you could be a record breaker.

 

[SuperSonicBlade89]

Realistically how does he keep his job till the next home game? It isn't going to be a nice atmosphere is it? Especially when we will inevitably lose 4 or 5 goals to nil, people will end up saying and doing a lot worse than they are now, no doubt!

Even if we were to scrape a 0-0 draw, I don't think that would be enough to satisfy the majority.

 

[Old Programme seller]

Has he had his after match interview on sky?

 

[riselikeasalmon]

I want us to play the way he said he would get us playing when he took over

But that was just words, I might as well have been given the job because we haven’t and I think I’d have at least got us more shots on target than he has

Not enough has changed since that first game for him to have any credibility as our manager to turn this round

He didn’t rally, console sympathise with the team at the end, just stared them out.

Not personal, just not the man to do the job 5 games in

 

[Tezza1889]

Hes a talentless inexperienced charlatan..

The players had his number when he gave it the big I AM after Oxford made his tactics look infantile desktop bullshit..

I wish him lonely.

 

[United Aren't Back.]

Yeah the usual bollocks. Had gall enough to say for thirty mins we were better team.

I don’t. He’s fucking useless

 

[Hblockblade]

Has he gon yet?

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

Why has Ruben been lying all summer btw?

All I kept hearing was "fast attacking football with pressing"

?????

 

[Champagneblade]

This has to be the most bizarre appointment we’ve ever made

It’s what happens when clueless Americans come aboard, think they know more than they do and start meddling in things they don’t understand.

Failing fast…6 straight defeats. Can’t get any faster.

 

[nopigfansintown]

It's not his fault he's out of his depth. I'm not so sure on the "feeling sorry for him" bit. He's essentially been given a huge guaranteed income that anybody on here would die for (whatever the outcome). He won the lottery the day he got the job if his salary is top end Champ level. I bet he's still recovering from the shock of getting appointed. The sack would damage his career prospects but overall he's coming up roses.
