TeemuVanBasten 3,327 Posted September 18, 2022 Now that the dust has settled somewhat on #Teagate, I thought it would be a good idea to talk about what other managers wouldn't be acceptable to The Real Buh based on their choice of intra-match beverage. Unfortunately we have to rule out son of Norwich Paul Warne, he likes a PG Tips Although we can all take a deep sigh or relief that it won't be Big Sam Especially not with this girly little cup, although at least he isn't sticking his pinky out Or Delia's old mate Roy Hodgson It rules out Colin too, no wonder he got turned down for the Norwich job back in the day This scandal is getting out of control now! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheGunnShow 5,977 Posted September 18, 2022 Think I'd have to question Warnie's choice of cuppa. Lancashire tea, Yorkshire tea, Tetley or a Twinings (English Breakfast or Earl Grey) will do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's bottom of those I selected. Lancashire's a really underrated brew. In fact, I prefer it to Yorkshire (the fact I am in Bolton has nothing to do with this, honest!!) Although as my tastebuds have changed I've started liking Earl Grey. Used to put a spot of milk in it and wasn't overly enthused by it. Amusingly, the waiter forgot the milk for my cup at a hotel in Cottbus so I just decided to drink it black and wondered what the **** I'd been missing all these years. Basically, a waiter forgetting something taught me something new about tea. If you're in Germany, Althaus and Ronnefeldt brands usually hit the mark. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drinking tea from a mug in the touchline is wrong and it just plain is. none of the images above show a mug on the touchline, particularly before an abject performance that the manager didn’t care we got embarrassed in. it’s the wrong message, it’s lackadaisical.

It’s not what he’s drinking, it’s the way he’s drinking it. have you ever seen any manager on a touchline before a game all casual drinking a mug of tea, Shaking hands alls well “hey Deano good to see you again”, then we lost like 6-0 or something and he couldn’t have cared less. It’s that lack of standards and the lack of consequence to last seasons embarrassing finale that really grated me. The board particularly got away with it scot-free. other clubs go down in the fashion we did, particularly multiple failed attempts at this point, and the fanbase would have started tearing chairs up and demanding change. The response required was root and stem change in the way this club is lead and we got a new canary logo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SwearyCanary 1,179 Posted September 18, 2022 (edited) Buh doesn’t need me to defend him, but I honestly see some of his point. I am openly a Smith supporter this season and I don’t feel him going would be what’s needed for right now at all. I do think though that we missed an opportunity to do a bit of spring cleaning following last year. BUT I do think that to get what we need for the change we need in the least damaging/risky way is to wait. That waiting is not long term whatsoever but is does require this seasons worth of patience. Plan A for me is go up, get a windfall of cash, Attansio comes in and S&J get a deserved applause before a probably right timed send off. This paved the way for new thinking and a new approach from a strong base, which although DS may be able to do I doubt it. Plan B is more unpleasant, but result the same. We don’t go up, DS goes and S&J plus Stu have no choice but to carry the can and admit the model has taken us as far as it is able. Big Mike gets the thumbs up and new thinking comes in that way, just with a smaller starting pot to enact. Buh wants change that benefits the club long term, just maybe disagrees with the timeline this happens in. Has a sense of humour many don’t like or get, but gives me a chuckle and largely only ever gets more derisory once someone gets personal first from my reading. I think a few take the jibes personally and I’ve been on the end of a few, but it’s no worse than the banter my mates throw my way which is all just tongue in cheek but lively disagreement. Lots of jibes brought up about the mug, which he ranted about months ago in a short time frame and was a funny way to highlight he feels DS is not showing he cares about us. I get that and I don’t think he is as invested in us as we would like and as we have had. It’s others keep bringing in the mug comments and focus on the actual ‘mug’ aspect to make the valid concern seem like a lunatics ravings. Truth is after the pile on of mockery Buh just gives back as good as he gets for a topic he isn’t even bringing up anymore. It’s literally a reasonable difference of opinion where the delivery is being criticised. Buh has acquired delivery I get it, but please can responders focus on what the point is to debate that rather than the vehicle?
