what’s gardening leave?
It’s when the chairman of a club allows the manager a little time off to grow some sour grapes.
what’s gardening leave?
Fingers crossed this has saved us a load of money. You'd hope so with him being on gardening leave. I assume there'd be a three way negotiation between the parties in respect of compensation to us for his services, compensation to Jose for any potential salary shortfall and Jose's new pay. I imagine we have agreed to waive any compensation in exchange for a greatly reduced payout to Jose.
Big risk by Roma putting him on a 3 year deal after his last 3 jobs have ended poorly following the same patterns. Even though Serie A should suit his style more Roma are usually a more attacking team in our mould that tries to buy and develop younger players with potential. I could see it following a similar pattern to us. Guess that's Roma community's problem now! They can deal with those weird Mourinhistas on social media too thankfully.
Do you know how many miracles I have performed?One of my mates has said he's ideally placed to become the next pope.
Lamela off to Roma it is
No need to feel sorry. My Roman friends are ecstatic.While I do feel sorry for the Roma fans, I am more ecstatic the bellend is out of our club. now lets blow this thread up and leave it to history.
Why did any club ever terminate the contract of any manager, then?

I think he’s a strong fit for Roma and Serie A. Only time will tell.We were too when he arrived…
Well that was quick.
My mates in Rome are buzzing. My family has a place in Rome and I plan to stay there for awhile in the fall. Hoping to get to a few AS Roma matches when football is back. Will keep you all updated on the fans’ sentiment towards Mourinho next season

With the cool air in the fall, you'll quickly fall asleep watching Joseball.
This explains the Roma fans today. (and in about 18 months)Two happiest days of a football supporter's life: The day the club hires a new manager, and the day the club sacks said manager.
I actually quite like Roma but I have no choice but to hope they fail, can't have us be the only club he didn't win at.
