I think people owe Ensco (I think thats the dude's nickname) an apology for badgering the poor guy for saying something was up....

im disappointed..... ive supported him threw all of the bullshit.. and he just quits?
hopefully there is some kind of explanation.
time to bring in Slaven Bilic
I seriously wonder what these personal issues are.
Between the crappy reffing
and the lure of Newcastle...
i bet that's the case.
It's really unfair of him to do this to the team at this point in the season.
We are just turning the corner after a not so great stretch.
I guess something was up last week, and that's why cummins was doing the press yesterday, and had the coy answers regarding where Carver will be for future games.
I look forward to Newcastle's relegation.
so much for the johnny carver scarves
Something has to be going on behind the scenes, JC has great passion for the game, it came through each time I saw him at BMO and when he did interviews. If you are from England and soccer is your life, the Premier League is where you want to be, heck most people in the world would want to also.
I know some people will just crap on him as being a quitter, I would never say that, he has great passion for this team and he expressed it, I just think there is no better place than home.
Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!
Carver i swear to fuck..... give me a good reason for deserting us....
i look like a fucking idiot for defending you!
over/under on people that missed the news today, and start a "john carver's -all red army" chant tomorrow at either the tailgate or in the stands??
ha ha cheeba...makes perfect sense
Maybe he got tired of the crappy weather...cloudy, raining and cold all the time...oh never mind, he is going back to England !
It could be all of those things IF you forget the fact that this is the MLS. It can only be spun to be earth shattering IF you forget the fact that this is the MLS.
Players aspire to the highest level. The MLS is not the highest level. Good players will move overseas. The players that remain are either not good enough to play overseas or on the downside of their careers.
The same is true for a coach. A coach desires to "raise his game" just as much as players. If Carver indeed lands back in the EPL, he is in the EPL for pete's sake.
That sure beats playing to crowds of under 10,000 on the road. It beats qualifying for our version of a Champions League.
I'm sure he did enjoy his time here. Just as players enjoy their time in the AHL or "AAA" Pacific Coast League for baseball. But they want more.
Don't read too much into this. Accept what this is. It is most likely a coach with aspirations and a desire for the big show. We are not the big show.
Nothing more. Nothing less.
Anybody want a Tshirt?
That's all I'll say about that.
Do we have time for a "Thank you Carver" banner for tomorrow ???
well..thats shit
In WHO we trust?
Seriously.. what an asshole. To do this without warning is inexcusable. I hope he shits Newcastle out of the football league like he did with Luton.
While I agree there is a certain amount of perfessionalism required. Wait til the season is over, wait until the team is stable enough and found another replacement, etc. etc. Don't leave em high and dry.
Many coaches have done this, the last one I could remember is Roy Williams when he left Kansas for UNC, he waited til the end of the season.
where's Giambac?
LOL!!!!!!!!! Go Sonny Cheeba!

Very poor record in MLS and quits on the team at the first opportunity, what a joke. I can't believe people continue to get snookered by this mediocre con man. That geordie accent won't bail you out in Newcastle, John, not that it will probably matter on that doomed franchise. I see this as very positive for TFC.
Honestly we don't need thank you banners... he hasn't done anything. The idea was that we trusted him to DO SOMETHING with the team, and all he's done is leave... with a high probability that he left for a better job opportunity and nothing else.
maybe we were going to let him go... so they gave him the option to have some dignity and quit before he got "fired".
it could happen.
