Realistically he isn't going to remove himself from his job, and I don't think the Glazer's ever will either. So what would be your plan/strategy to get the club back challenging at the top of the league again?
You are Ed Woodward. What do you do?
- Thread starter esmufc07
- Start date
Book a one way ticket to Mars.
looking forward to this weeks media leak
I'd bring in a football man to be Head of Football and have him report to me.
They don't want to challenge. It would make no financial sense to do so. It would take half a billion at least and even then there is no guarantee and even then what you get for winning won't return your half a billion. If you win the premier and champions league then what's that 100 mill prize money? They just need to make sure the fans don't riot by chucking them titbits every now and again and keep the financial business side of things going well.
I'd give me a 50% raise.
Take a picture of the scoreboard after this humiliating defeat and keep it in my office as a reminder that the club must never again sink to such a low.
Sack myself. Go to India with Glaston.
Resign
I'ld call the investors and tell them official application is working fine in China.
What have we got left before we've got a full house on the 'shit result, positive media leak' bingo?
Seppuku
Quit.
Punch myself in the face.
Repeatedly.
this. What do you expect him to do? He'll change 100 managers and continue to think he is a great ceo of a football club.Swim with sharks
I cryogenically freeze myself, until there's a time in the future where an 'uncnutifier' device is brought to market.
We could be fighting relegation soon. They have to take it seriously now.
Just keep getting into Champions League every season, that is all they want.
Tell Phil Jones to shut the f*ck up.
We hired one of the best managers in the world in Mourinho and it didn't work.
Smoke a cigar and count my ill gotten money knowing that I'm responsible to the stupidest owners in all of world football.
Cocaine and hookers
Lots of cocaine and arrange a Roman orgy
And I know DDG is having a poor run of form but don't think VDS would do much better.
Nothing right now. As it stands, continue as it is and look to back Ole heavily next window. However, if things don’t improve, then will have to get rid of Ole before then.
I tell Ole that it hasn't worked out and release a statement saying that he has left the club by mutual consent.
Then, I appoint a duo along the lines of Paul Mitchell and Nagelsmann if possible.
I discuss finances with the new manager and DoF, outlining the level of financial freedom they'll have and inform them that they can bring in their own staff and take full charge of which players we bring in as well as which ones we sell.
I throw myself into the corporate side of things which is what I'm best at.

Buy the caf and ban esmufc07.
Entice Poch and give him money.
Restructure the club, distancing myself from the football side of things.
Conduct a thorough interview process to hire a director of football. The process should fairly assess the candidates previous achievements and his plan for the future. Upon hiring the said candidate, let him have full control over the club's transfer dealings and management.
Woodward should bring in a Director of Football, as he should realise after going through all these managers that he needs help from someone with football knowledge. I think he will do the usual and sack the manager as Woodward can't accept any responsibility for his own failings. Then he'll start all over again.
Ole out.
AllegrIN.
Three players in January, handpicked by Allegri.
