Good Vibes and Long Term Success

[Shucks 0]

I''m ecstatic with the appointment. Long term success can only be achieved with folk passionate for the club. Calls for ''experience'' and for ''measures of success'' in dreary irrelevant clubs elsewhere are decidedly wide of the mark. It is belonging that matters most and only the fans can ruin this moment of magic. Self-destructiveness is rarely rational!

Oh here we go again its the fans fault if it goes wrong! Those pesky fans calling for experience and previous success in a manager how dare they even consider it for the club!If it goes wrong it will be Gunn and the boards fault, not the fans.

Plenty to be pessimistic about at the minute I''d say. Passionate allies? Misguided passion will lead us to the abyss as will misguided loyalty.

Makes you wonder if any of our supporters actually have a clue about football , this really has got to be our worst appointment for years.

Exactly, and a point very well made.

Passion at management level won''t neccessarily bring success.

In fact it''s probably best that the passion is displayed on the pitch with a tactically apt staff with a clear head, rather than a non passionate playing staff being shouted down by a far too passionate and outspoken management staff (Peter Grant).
