barclay_boy111 0 Posted June 2, 2014 Is it just me? Or is this love of bringin back former players and even a former scummer getting all a bit silly now?We are becoming a laughing stock of he championship with these appointments and it''s going to all end up in tears.In business it should always be ran with your head not your heart, every single appointment so far had been made with delia & MWJ''s heart and not a footballing head.

? 0 Posted June 2, 2014 Agreed, so Nutty just because Royle won POTS that makes his appointment OK?I would love to say otherwise but with this board in charge there''s no way we will get back up straight away! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrs miggins 0 Posted June 2, 2014 Monty, we''ve appointed Neil Adams - the person who didn''t win a game due to the way he set the team up (picked up 1 point). We''ve just got relegated and have decided ex player, ginger and manager of falkirk (scottish championship). We''ve appointed Joe Royle who''s almost dead, but likely to be on a bit to be a ''consultant'' to consult Neil Adams on how to run the first team, despite being a sh1t manager. It''s like we''ve though, ''actually no, we quite like it in the championship.''Bl00dy useless. And thats goodnight from me as I can see a few people getting annoyed by my...lack of blind faith Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,351 Posted June 2, 2014 Don''t know what Royles position is but I don''t see how having someone with his qualities can be a negative. What are the negatives for Royle? And is Holt and Robson an upgrade on calderwood and Trollope or not? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrs miggins 0 Posted June 2, 2014 Whats the login name got to do with opinions on this subject? Is it because there are clearly people who think these are good appointments, and those who think they aren''t? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
? 0 Posted June 2, 2014 Do you lot not think that this is Gunn, Butterworth and Crook all over again? I for one would love to be wrong but the comparisons are so similar it''s scary¡Sorry to upset all you optimists but I really see us as average at best next season!

nutty nigel 7,351 Posted June 2, 2014 Which ones like Gunn, which ones like crook and which like butterworth? I see it as more like stringer and Williams. What''s it about Joe Royle that reminds you of the others? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keckers 0 Posted June 2, 2014 I''m with Nutty on this. Have said from the start that this feels like Stringer to me rather than any others. Of course, everyone is allowed an opinion, but just merely having one doesn''t make you automatically right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
? 0 Posted June 2, 2014 You refered to it being more like stringer and Williams! A long time ago as you well know, a lot has changed in football since then. We can''t keep bringing up the past, Mike Walker was probably the best manger we ever had but do you think he''d do well now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
? 0 Posted June 2, 2014 Keckers agreed, I don''t agree with all these appointments but in no way doesn''t make me a binner! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barclay_boy111 0 Posted June 2, 2014 Citys1st may I congratulate you on describing yourself increadably well, if you actually take a look at my post history you will find I use this my one and only log in on a regular basis.How''s about you take your head out of your bottom, take the yellow and green tinted glasses off and see what''s really going on.

Keckers 0 Posted June 2, 2014 Nobody said the same as, merely like. From the same stable. The same background or grounding. Rather than pan the guys before they even have a single training session or any news comes out of contracts renewed / new signings / players moving on, maybe look to the positives of experience and philosophy. If you are going to call JR a failed manager, all you do is show your lack of knowledge. And there is no reason why the Mike Walker of 22 years ago couldn''t be a success now. It''s largely man-management. That''s where Lambert excelled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barclay_boy111 0 Posted June 2, 2014 Any way I''ll try make my personal veiw a little clearer.I feel this is all being done purely to keep the cost down rather than really taking this opportunity to build an experienced management structure and taking this promotion charge seriously,I''m not against these other roles being introduced as long as they are all lookin for the same style of football I''m just not impressed with who they have brought in.Like i said Football should be treated like a business these days and decisions should always be made with your head and not your heart. All these appointments have been made with the boards heart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
