John Terry - Gone

This is all going to end badly.

Why?

Terry will be a great aquisition alongside Henry. We desperately  need a leader and motivator.

It's the whole package not just Terry - just doesn't sit right with me.  We need experience right now to move us forward.  Only two names I would feel confident with of whom we have half a chance they may just say yes - Rodgers and Smith.

Experience like somebody who has been in this league and got a few sides up. Who knows what it's about...

Fat lot of good experience has brought us since 2010.

If only there was someone like that we could hire. How about TSM2?

And after how swimmingly well it's been going the last 7 years.

Hopefully when he sees how bad our defence is he will come out of retirement.

There is a difference between appointing one or more experienced managers that were bad decisions and it being a bad decision to ever appoint an experienced manager.

It may well be that an experience is a vital part of the mix for the next manager, but then so is competence, a clear playing philosophy, great coaching, and a commitment to properly build something.

Quite “randomly” 30 min ago the AVFC Twitter feed wished John Terry congratulations on a great career...

Probably because he's just announced his retirement. No different to them wishing happy birthday to someone who played 6 games for us 26 years ago.

What makes this “random”?

It always does, doesn't it? I'm not sure there are many managers who have ever left when things are going well. Sir Graham before England I suppose.

Lets just hope it gore's really, really well before the end!

I make that a shortlist of Big Sam, 'Arry  the spiv and Colin Wanker. Time to reset the poll.

I think John Terry should sign end of, play some games, influence around the squad, perhaps he can combine that role with assisting somebody like Henry, you can always make the case for experience, problem is we have done that to death, Bruce was the the perfect definition of experience, its not working for us, I would be happy to see Henry take over, great if Wenger was part of that, if not, so be it.

Personally, in my opinion I think we go the other way now, throw caution to the wind and go for flair and creativity, get the club back on its feet and playing football, Henry is a bit of a maverick but so what, it might be just what we need and if we can play some decent football again, that in itself is a huge bonus.
