Re: Selles In

Even before the recent couple of wins I have questioned myself about whether I was fair to judge Selles after 14 or so games. I had written him off as our worse ever manager, but he’s had to deal with all of the issues behind the scenes along with a very new/young squad of players. Also, he’s still...

Re: I've lost count - Embargos, HMRC Payent defaults, non payment of wages, the usual under Dai Wrongge

If you only work with twats, only take the advice of twats and generally hang out in circles full of twats, that suggests to me that you are a twat yourself. The scenario where Dai listens to good advisors was never going to happen because he's a twat. Yep I think that as well. Badly advised he may...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

I know a lot of stuff is unclear at the moment, but one assumption is that Dai is still convinced that he should be getting more money back than what he's currently being offered. That if he just holds on as long as possible that the club will turn things around and Dai would be looking at a £50m r...

Re: Will Ejaria resurrect before we find a buyer?

Ejaria needs a fresh start. Be gone when his contract expires. Meanwhile he can continue to pick up his large paycheck every month.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Shrewsbury Town (a)

A new manager and a couple of astute signings could make all the difference. With a fee restriction already in place for the next 3 transfer windows. Bowen bringing Selles on board actually has the resemblance of a plan. There's no quick fixes to the hole that Dai has dug for the club. A new manage...

Re: TAKEOVER *NOT* CONFIMRED

What I don't get is the Red Bird bid. Though I understand they aren't exactly clean as an organisation, their sports investment fun is worth 8billion, they own AC Milan and 10% of Liverpool. We just seem too small for them. Feeder club. Somewhere to develop younger players who'll never make the top...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Shrewsbury Town (a)

What I got from the Hutch interview is that he feels the younger players keep on repeating errors even when told about them and there comes a time with all players where you have to question not just their footballing ability but also whether they do what they are told. Why so many technically gift...

Re: Bowen speaks

So I don’t think it’s youth over experience which is the overriding choice. The issue for me is the baffling inconsistencies of selection that is the major issue and Selles is complicating his own job more than anything else at the moment. Give Selles the benefit of the doubt. In that he is managin...

Re: Bowen speaks

Whilst Carroll clearly screwed up, I think bombing him out has proved a pretty disastrous decision. In the longer term. Was the right decision. When the going gets tough. You need people with the right mentality and attitude on board. Dissenters and those behaving negatively are best let go. Egos c...

Re: Bowen speaks

Interesting that the statement has been made by the Head of Football Operations rather than the CEO. Wonder if this was sanctioned by Dai. Or is now happy for others to do the PR work. Having lost any interest in the club other than exiting with a suitable payoff from the new owner(s). At least ther...

I know I’m being naive but I still can’t believe there isn’t a better way, than punishing tens of thousands of people, over the actions or inactions of 1/2 bellends. How many of those thousands of people are impatient for success? Constantly demanding that the owner spends money on new players, cha...

I do think there is a lot of revisionism going on. Yes its gone wrong. But, there is a world in which Pauno's team kept in the play offs and got promoted. I have said it a few times but when Swift came back into the side we beat Bournemouth 3-1 away handsomely and i thought this is it. Swift got in...
