As suggested by another poster on the draft thread Kern didn't look particularly comfortable last night, maybe the pressure is getting to him, and if so it's not beyond the realms of possibility he could pull the pin himself at some stage next season instead of waiting for what should eventually be inevitable.
Yes I thought he looked a bit flat. Was all smiles last draft. It would surely be getting to the fella.

I was meaning the Adelaide version of United, not the Manchester. But I agree with your view about Solskjar.

Who are we kidding.

We are going to miss the 8 and back Ken in.

Yep.

Let’s be honest, he was getting high praise for his usual trick of losing home games in which were favourite, and getting blown off the park by North, while deploying a team with an average of 26 and half-a-dozen geriatrics in it.

Imagine the mad props he’ll get if the side actually is young while spluttering into the usual 9th/10th finish.

The groundswell for Ken to ‘see it through’ will be unbearable.
 
Emery sacked... now for hinkley.
We wanted Hinkley sacked 2 years before Wenger got sacked after a long WengerOUT campaign. They've already gone through 2 managers.

I agree, wasn't the idea that t would 'Unite' the split city of Crows and Power fans. I love soccer, but can't be doing with them!

Awful name though, they should push Reds more.

Agree. After all that this state and its bitter losers have attempted to do to my club Port Adelaide, to stem its success and to belittle its rich history, I just cannot sit side by side with a crows supporter and cheer on another team that shares the state colours, and quite frankly the crows colours. I lost my love for the 36ers decades ago and I've never been an Adelaide United supporter.

Much more ruthless accountability in the EPL. Every time Rucci reminds us of how grateful we should be for Hinkley because 2012, I always think of two words: Claudio Ranieri.

Looks likely from what KT said back in August, honestly couldn't believe what I was hearing..

Journo: "Does Port need to make finals in 2020 for Ken to get an extra year or will that mean he goes?"

KT: "Ken's got an existing contract, if we feel we need to give him more time we'll extend it"

Other tidbits from KT

"Can we forsee a Ken Hinkley run football program delivering us a premiership? Absolutely."

"I think Ken's a great coach, I just think its hard to win consistently at AFL level."

"You're (journos) are worried a lot more about these things than I am? I haven't even thought about it. (Ken's contract trigger)"

"We have seen throughout Ken's career an ability to beat the best sides."

Well he got his wish, Emery was sacked today.
He has clearly said that, although Emery should go, the real issue lies above the head coach.

Sack Rucci for wearing that tie to what I assume is some sort of club function.
