Re: Welcome back Brian!

Delighted. My only concern is the abysmal signings in the Prem. Lack of support meant we didn't ever get to see what he could do in the PL with decent support. Can he spend good money on good players? Can he build a team that can compete in the PL? He doesn't even know that. One thing we can be sure...

I've heard we're in talks with Bob Monkhouse :shock:

Re: Welcome back Brian

Of course we'll get behind him ( if it happens ) but I can't help feeling unexcited about this, guess we really are just a little club as we've always known and probably always will be If challenged you'd be hard put to justify that. I will. I don't know about being a perpetual little club, but I c...

Re: Who do you want to replace Clarke?

Nigel Pearson, promoted with Leicester once, came back and promoted again. Coppell, promoted with Palace once, came back and promoted again. Graham Taylor, promoted with Watford three times, came back and did it twice more. Eddie Howe, promoted with Bournemouth once, came back and promoted twice mo...

Re: BFTG - QPR

In this game I think we seriously missed Bodin, Rasiak, Kromheer, Asaba, Brayson and Scott.

Re: Steve Clarke Sacked

To be fair Clarke had us playing some fantastic football, brought in some players who are fantastic and got the best out of the previously anonymous Blackman. His biggest mistake was getting in two appalling keepers and getting rid of Sal Bibbo. One of whom is young and will come good with time. The...

Re: The New Manager Poll

Split between Coppell and Pearson and Curbishley. So I put down Coppell (only question mark would be if he's ever got it in him to be a long term manager) but to actively not want him in the top three is beyond ridiculous. and will argue for Pearson. Good record and seems like he could beat the shit...

Re: Steve Clarke Sacked

Can only echo most comments on here, Clarke's position was more and more untenable in the light of the Fulham nonsense Which only goes to show how uneducated those people are about football. I was told Fulham made it public, so Clarke should bear no responsibility for it. We'd all potentially look ...

Good riddance.

Any manager would do as long as brings in a keeper and a keeping coach with him.

Re: The Gr8 Keeper Deb8

So... I was slated by some for suggesting that we may lose points for having mistake prone keepers. More points lost due to this problem. Lost count how many points we've lost. How many do we think it'll be come the end of the season. The difference between playoffs and not perhaps?

Re: The where the F*ck did it all go wrong thread

How about this thought: it hasn't gone wrong at all. ? With so few results a few wins or losses can put you in the wrong place in the table. But now the season is progressing we're seeing exactly what we are - a good upper midtable side who can for playoffs. Isn't that better than where we were befo...

Re: The where the F*ck did it all go wrong thread

It wouldn't surprise me if this whole dip in form/Clarke speaking to Fulham saga is a rather cunning ploy by Clarke... Probably was informed of the Fulham interest around the time of the whole second half shambles at Craven Cottage...then came out with all the excuses about injuries and the loans s...

Re: The where the F*ck did it all go wrong thread

McCleary = best right winger in this division. Blackman = one of best strikers in this division. The best are consistant performers. Neither are. If Blackman were the best he'd be in the premiership by now. True none is consistent enough, but because they don't get the chance. I'll def stand by McC...

Re: BFTG Bolton(H)

One of my infrequent visits to the Loyalty Dome this season. I have come to the conclusion that I don't really care in the least who is our manager. What I care about is the success of the team , and the club . In the years I have followed the Rz I have felt warm feelings for: Infoot, McGhee, Jim a...

Re: BFTG Bolton(H)

I can't believe no one mentioned the temperature.

It was freezing.

Scientists confirmed that parts of the ground yesterday got closer to absolute zero than every previously observed.

And there was a match on.

Re: Are to unhappy Steve Clark is staying?

Multisync, you may well be right mate. Of course. And that was my first impression. But those quotes don't prove your interpretation of events. They could easily work with my hypothetical situations where of course Clarke would still speak in those same terms to the media. I notoriously still haven'...

Re: Are to unhappy Steve Clark is staying?

Before we judge the guy let's bear in mind what happened: Steve Clarke spent a fair amount, was allowed to bring in a lot of players and whilst results started off well things went a bit pear shaped and the board started losing confidence in him, with some thinking he needs to be replaced. Clarke fe...

I realise I'm probably being blasphemous at even hinting at the suggestion :)
