Thomas would be hard to replace, but there are still two of our three wise men left (Matthew and Phil) I have faith in their ability to find a replacement.
Not sure Tottenham is the right club for Thomas, who has always emphasised the importance of having a supportive culture, and alignment throughout the club. Also, Brentford won one and lost eight of Thomas’s first ten games in charge. He would be out of the door at Tottenham if that happened there.
A great article.
Thomas is a man for whom values are important. Togetherness, respect, proud but humble are all values that readily come to mind.
Thomas has already described being the head coach at the bees as being the best job in football. With his authenticity he has been able to develop great relationships with all. MB, PG, the players, the club staff and us, the fans. He frequently observes how happy he is here. As a club we improve year and year and I expect have the capacity to continue that improvement.
The alternative for Thomas is a shiny stadium, a pay rise but all the insecurity and never knowing what looks good enough at Tottenham. He is more than capable of managing a team in the ECL but if and when Thomas leaves for another job in football, I hope it is to a club who like us can match his dreams, aspirations and values.
Thomas Frank owes Brentford FC nothing….Brentford owe him a lot. One day he will go, for financial, ambitious and other unknown reasons – I just truly hope it’s not to a club like Tottenham that leaves managers scattered like discarded confetti after a few months. Thomas has been given longer than many other premier league manager to develop and grow the team that we have today. He certainly won’t be allowed to do that at Tottenham. It must be flattering to the ego to be wanted by a “big” club but he must know that he will be as unsuccessful as all the others simply because he won’t be given the time, care and loyalty that he has enjoyed at Brentford. Go if you must Thomas, but please choose your next club carefully.
You’re Brentford.
Tottenham has a higher budget, a world-class stadium and UCL football.
We are proud to be Brentford, we know. Bigger budget, bigger stadium , awful owners and a ticking time bomb to a sacking even if you achieve champions league through winning a jumble sale European trophy, well done.
It would be sad to see Thomas leave the club, but I want us to get to the next level of European football or have a decent run in a cup competition. It’s a big risk but I would let him go and find a replacement that could achieve the above
