Now! Thats another topic entirely! haha

Not nearly enough managerial experience.

No, i'm agreeing with you that Les Reed is the wrong man for the job. Therefore Cortese made a wrong call appointing him. Showing that he still has something to learn when it comes to running a football club. And utterly proving that his inexperience is an issue. You undermined your own point. And believing that a CEO of a football club should have nothing to do with football matters, you would hope they had a least a basic understanding!

That was utterly epic!

You have claimed that an excuse that the CEO is learning his trade in the job as being rubbish. He has appointed an advisor to help him therefore the point is moot, yes? Then you undermine that by showing how poor a choice he may be for that role. Nicola Cortese's poor choice of advisor could well be part of his learning. It is obvious he is not getting everything right, therefore he still has much to learn. And his need to grow into the role is hindering us in some ways in the short term. It is without question a factor and far from your original eloquent suggestion of 'boll*cks.'

He has a point though. There are posters on here who would moan regardless of what was happening!

Indeed, but don't let that get in the way of a good rant.

I concur. Not for our benefit but for that of the players. If they believe the manager is about to go how will they be able to give him their best? Hopefully an internal club statement of confidence has already been provided.

Well teams managed says: Southampton 2010-2012 Oh my.....

You've contradicted yourself. How is it b*llocks when you've confirmed that he has a direct advisor? He has clearly taken measures to remedy the situation, yet as with all business, he will take time to get things right.

The whole club is learning as it grows. But of course, as Cortese seemingly isn't a likable chap he's not allowed the same courtesy.

They are a set of well informed fans the Baggies. Good lads, particularly enjoyed this bit:

Which player 'controlled the ball' with his face on the build up to Rickie hitting the bar? What a lay off that was, pass of the season!

Possible resentment at having to surrender any claim to Wimbledon's history?

Totally, totally agree.

Good to hear. I really hope we do not sack the man who is statistically the best post war manager of the club.

I'm not saying goodbye unless it's officially confirmed.

Type 'Nigel Adkins' into google. 'Nigel Adkins sacked' is the second option, oddly after 'Nigel Adkins Wife'

Too right!

And to suggest Fulham are a bigger club. Before Al Fayeds money they were floating between the bottom two leagues. Some interesting signings in the 70's not withstanding they are at most a club on the scale of Notts County. Their trump card is simply their location.

Seriously. This thread, great entertainment.

Then stop being a pussy and spit the truth out. What the hell else do you lot want? Stop skirting around the point and be explicit.

Two avoidable goals, that is all. Story of our season, (But Guly, bloody Guly, League 1? Yes, Championship? Why not, Premier League? Out. Of. Depth.)

A true representation of remember history, learn from the mistakes. That 'club' is an abomination.
