This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

They are in a tough position by wcnitz
Ole has them in 7th despite injury problems and overall quality issues. They haven't been great, but they've won 5 of 6 matches overall since drawing Liverpool. Add in the fact that he's a club legend, and it would be a bit of a ruthless look to sack him now.
What may help them, right now, is that the only other big club looking for a manager is Bayern and Poch isn't the right fit (unless he wants to start learning German in a hurry like Pep did). The big month for Prem teams is about to start, and how it shakes out may give them the justification they need to change - or not change - as Poch will likely be available for a while. Unless a big Italian or Spanish side (read: Madrid) becomes available, he doesn't need to jump right away.
