Row D Seat 7 0 Posted April 19, 2010 Hahaha, "thanks Bryan". An absolute disaster as manager. His comment after we lost 7-1 "we are very proud of the steward system we have here at the club".Yes, he signed Holt - hardly a risky signing, has always scored goals. Nelson was a good solid centre half before he came to Norwich, no surprise there either.You forget Theo, Mcveigh, Tudor-Jones, Maric etc.Can''t believe people are now giving Gunn credit for that defeat. Knowing Gunn though, he''d accept any praise for anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Superflash 0 Posted April 19, 2010 People conveniently forget the 4-0 drubbing we administered to Yeovil a few days later. Fact is, he still had the foresight to bring in the players he did. Plus, he gave players like Martin and Spillane a chance to come back and prove themselves, not to mention giving acadamey youngsters like Smith a chance. Did Grant or Roeder really do a much better job with some of the players they had at times?And the vast majority of you actually doubted Lambert when he came in. I for one did not, and I wouldn''t change a thing about what he''s done for us this season. But the Gunn bashing is getting thin now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Row D Seat 7 0 Posted April 19, 2010 "The Gunn bashing is getting thin now" - unlike Gunn himself. Jokes aside - *Superflash* - The 4-0 victory over Yeovil makes no difference to me at all, and obviously didn''t make any difference to David McNally either as Gunn eventually got what he deserved.Whether people say it was the right or wrong thing to do, Gunn proved how serious he was about being a manager after leaving Norwich. He now sells mobile phones, so he wasn''t that serious about having a future in football was he? Makes the decision to put him in the hot seat even more ridiculous now.

Plus, he was an employee at Norwich for years and he''s said himself he couldn''t imagine working for another club. Sure, the 4-0 didn''t make a bit of difference and I for one am glad McNally took the action he did. I just don''t think Gunn needs to be repeatedly bashed when in actual fact, if it was Reoder or Grant, we''d be almost certainly be far worse off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Bump 0 Posted April 19, 2010 Thank you Bryan Gunn.Lambert wanted Holt at Colchester anyway but couldn''t afford him. You can''t honestly think we wouldn''t be promoted now without Nelson? Korey Smith played against Charlton but didn''t really look like starting under Bryan Gunn at the start of the season. I think it was Crook/Lambert that brought him in.Thanks for wasting money on Gill, Tudur Jones, Theoklitos, Whaley etc. Thanks for getting us relegated when we weren''t in the relegation zone when you took over Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Row D Seat 7 0 Posted April 19, 2010 It''s probably a blessing in disguise that we did go down because we got McNally and Lambert. I agreed that Roeder should have been sacked when he was, but I do think he would have kept us up, even though he was a total p***k. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glenn would have definately got us relegated- it annoys me when I see people blaming Gunn for our relegation, with the squad of players we had we had no chance. I''m not trying to defend Gunn, he wasn''t a good manager but seriously people are to harsh to him- what he didn''t do for us last season/the start of this season he had surely already made up for in helpin us to one of the most succesful periods in our history in the nineties- he should be remembered for that.

Huddy 0 Posted April 19, 2010 the serious bit first..Gunn was totally out of his depth; anyone who disagrees is kidding themselves; secondly, with Gunn in charge we certainly wouldnt be going up automatically!..but thirdly..we should be happy, see the funny side...Without the Col Utd debacle the club may would not have been able to orchestrate such a rewmarkable turnaround, and have the ammunition quickly enough to bite the bullet & implement changes that had been neede for 3 years...However, we''vwe got away with it; we''ll cme back stronger than before, so no more sour grapes with Gunny please.Even i, one of his biggest critics, wouldnt begrudge a little, Bryan Gunn chant coming out of the barclay on saturday...all together now...Bryan Gunn, Bryan Gunn, Bryan Bryan Gunn!
