Check out post #54 where the highly knowledgable Eurosaint gave him a mention !!

On what factual basis do you make this statement, may I ask ???

Playing devil's advocate, I guess you could say that about many of the so called greats as well ? Clough, Ferguson, Mourhino etc.. all have had their moments of aggression, arrogance, favouritism and bullying to mention just a few little 'character flaws' !!

I believe that he could become the new 'Forbes Phillipson Masters' !

I'll bet that was the highlight of your day, eh ??

I guess he'll frame it and hang it next to his picture of a train !!

FWIW my OP was intended to compare a big spending volatile regime with our much calmer approach ! As a matter of strategy NC stated that he wanted to start the whole process with a clean slate therefore Wotte was released and a whole new backroom team was built ! The sacking of McParland would be the equivalent of us sacking Pardew today, which I personally think would be ridiculous ! However, if it makes you feel better, I did not consider this point when I made the original post but even now I don't actually think it is relevant in the comparison !

It is by no means perfect but like so many websites it becomes much easier the more you use it and find your way around ! One added plus is that when you (occasionally) look at other FL clubs sites they become easier to use as well ! I did prefer the previous version but it became so tainted with Rupertesque propaganda that in a way I'm glad to see the back of it !!

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/n/notts_county/8303078.stm After 3 defeats this season Notts County sack the manager ! Sol Campbell quits after 1 game despite a £10mil, 5 year contract ! Sven on £2mil per year pulling the strings ! Nobody knows the identity of the real owners ! Quite different to the ML and NC approach and I, for one, am happy to take the softly, softly, build for the future strategy ! Perhaps some will disagree ??

Claiming to be 'religious' does not in any way determine someone's right to be considered a good person ! For example, there are some obscenely rich Arabs who seem happy to have a huge army of underclass workers building their apartment blocks, hotels and temples. In these situations 'mans inhumanity to man' is very apparent, but they still claim to be Godly people ! IMO religion, business and sport are totally separate entities and should stay that way !!

That was his 3rd league game after being here for only a few weeks ! It just goes to prove that patience is needed for rebuilding and we still have a helluva long way to go! When I look back at those who were hypercritical after the first few games it makes me cringe, it really does !! Anyway Oxo, I'm glad that you've seen the light !!

Sorry mate, you are gonna have to make your mind up !!

Why did I read that thread title and think that it was a recent quote from a 12 year old Pompey lass ????

As expectations rise so will the criticism after the inevitable future draws and defeats ! There are many blips ahead of us, but at least the captain now has control of the ship ! COYS.

There will be many more pitfalls on a rocky road ahead ! A couple of defeats and the usual calls of ' sack the manager ' will resurface ( idiotic I know, but you can rely on it !) ! One step at a time is the only rational way to look at it, having said that, we are surely progressing according to plan at the moment !!

Quiz night in a Pompey pub. The final question was - " Take That's latest album consists of 4 words, the first 2 are 'Take That', what are the other 2 words" ?? Long pause before someone pipes up............... "Ya c u n t "

Final word : " Them boys done good " !

The boy is on fire !! AL, ace striker !! We'll walk this league !!

3-1, Lallana !

Seems Morgan made the goal happen, big time !

Lallana, great striker now, eh ???

2-1 Saints

Harding booked and conceded free kick from which they scored ! They have got their heads up now, barstewards !

Ffs 1-1
