enter thundercloucci with Hinkley’s overall win/loss percentage (which includes 40 wins against teams that a Make-A-Wish kid could’ve autopiloted his way to as caretaker).

Typical Manchester United fans, they need to understand this isnt the Football League First Division any more.

A beloved ex-player too. As opposed to some random who helped engineer two of the most embarrassing defeats in club history before getting here.

Well, he has burrowed under our skin like a tick.

man united have become such a soft loser club that they put out a video of their terrible now ex-manager talking about how he's "set the club up for the future" and "did the best he can" and all this unbelievable s**t. unfortunately, you can see PAFC putting something exactly like this together thanking kenny for his service and the way he pulled us out of the mire.

I’ve already seen myriad people claim Ken, Koch and Keith saved the club — even going so far as to credit them for core strategies, happenings and accomplishments that occurred before any of them arrived — so I’m strapped in and ready

Yeah, I've already said the response is set for the happy clappers. When they go if we improve it's because the 3K's set it all up. If we're the same, we'll get 'Why did we sack Ken?!'. If we have a dip, as he wasted long playing stars Gray and Boak, then it's 'Where are all the Ken haters now we're worse?!!!'. The one we aren't getting is any admittance that Ken (and Koch and even Keith) should have been moved on earlier.

i can see why you're the tipping champion, nothing gets past you

Me, gunning for Kochie, Richo and the rest of the board when they extend Ken's contract again...

Even if you accept the premise that K-cubed guided the club from insolvent minnow to stable contender, I will never give up on citing Claudio Ranieri as Exhibit A in the People vs Hinkley trial.

 

[Us against the rest]

Not sacked yet, well I'll be.
Sack him.

Like a prime Jonah Lomu against the Japanese rugby side

Aston Villa sacked their manager after 5 straight losses. A manager who was a boyhood Villa fan, took over midseason when they were 15th in the Championship, got them promoted that year, improved every season and is genuinely one of the most likable people in football. I think if he'd had more time he'd have gotten things back on track, but the owners are ambitious and want results.

As much as I think it's a bit harsh, erring on the side of ruthless is much, much better than Koching up deluxe and never holding anyone accountable for anything.

Dear Mr Richardson,

I would like to see ken Hinkley sacked at the earliest opportunity.

 

[sobrave]

Remember when the first ive lost my faith in ken hinkley thread started in 2015? Imagine finding out he's still here in 2022. You'd assume we'd jagged a flag somewhere.

Has it been that long, so we have done 6 years, are we eligible for parole yet?

Youse all thought I was a superhero when I won coach of the year

You can't even compare the way Premier League clubs are run to AFL clubs. It's something like 6-8 out of 20 managers in the Premier League have been sacked and replaced already, the season is only 11 games old. There isn't the longevity being a manager in the Premier League outside of Guardiola, Klopp and not many else that we see in the AFL. If Koch was in charge of a English football club they'd be languishing in League Two after consecutive relegations with him saying we're on a path etc while the fans protest.

I agree with getting Hinkley out, his almost decade at our club has proven what he is. It's just laughable we're all still here saying what the club needs but the ones who make the call don't make it.

You aren't wrong, but the flipside of this is come round 11 next year literally no other club in the entire 125 year history of VFL/AFL has ever given a head coach more chances without even a grand final appearance.
