Crab Lungs

As I've said below, I still can't fathom the reaction to some mildly disappointing decisions he's made. On the whole, where it matters most, we're functioning almost perfectly and he has probably overseen one of the most exciting eras in modern times. That, and of course the fact he contributed heavily to our salvation. Not just that though, but having him/Markus is an incredible coup - and one we should be very, very thankful for. Imagine the alternatives.. Micky Fialka or that ex-York chairman A legend, for me, is someone who sticks around for a very, very long time and oversees a largely successful era. Cortese's not there yet, obviously, but even if we did get back to the Premier League and not win anything there whilst under his chairmanship, I'd still consider him something of a legend. Not a feet-kissing, worship-style one - but more in a forever appreciative kinda way.

Ha, just commented on your post funnily enough! I honestly cannot fathom the reaction to some, at best, mildly irritating decisions he's made. Why can't they look beyond a couple of quid extra instead of stomping around making a big fuss over nothing? They probably won't credit it, but it was Cortese who told Markus to buy us, y'know... he's been very good so far but if he'd only been average, he deserves a little more slack for that contribution alone.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

That's fair enough. I still think he should get far more credit than he's due though, despite his flaws. Or maybe not credit, but a bit more slack.

Wasn't the excuse that it what constructed from different parts so that it was hard to determine scale/quality etc? And yes, good point... thanks God it came to nothing

No. If he doesn't achieve what you require (or believe to be realistic), what would you consider him? A failure? An average chairman? An axe-wielding psychopath? And what do you think of what he's achieve so far?

Shame that there wasn't much canvassing of opinions while Ian Brennan was chipping away at that £112,000 monstrosity.... I still can't believe no-one said "Hang on a minute, mate..."

So, despite what he's done for the club so far (you've only listed the negatives) - unless he achieves the above, he'd be considered a bit of failure? We really don't realise how lucky we are

Lawrie was a very well paid employee who continued to take even when we were in the sh1t financially. I hope you don't get your plane/banners out again if anything goes a bit awry That said, a plane flying past with "GIVE US BACK OUR CAR PARK FFS" would make me chuckle.

That would have been a feckin' disaster if the first Ted Bates statue was anything to go by. Highlight here for subliminal message: Cortese is GOD. You worship no-one else.

Oh, her voice as well. Husky. Sultry. Dominant.

It's laced with drugs to dumb you down and it has subliminal mind-control messages on the packaging

I now cannot wait to see poor old Eddie's face next week

Poor Steven Carr... he's like a human meatball

Hey buddy, I'm entitled to my opinion. Bring back the train picture, FFS.

Of course - but.... I really, really do not see the point of soiling myself over a programme front cover or car park charge. If we profess to love our club so much, then surely things like these shouldn't be that much of an issue, considering the bigger picture? I'm all for healthy, constructive criticism but nonsensical bedwetting is bit OTT for me. I'm not saying he's faultless by any means, but I do think we're way too tetchy about the man who, alongside Markus and Nigel, has presided over one of the most entertaining, successful teams in recent times.

Tbf, he's no Jordan Henderson.

Cortese just isn't right for us. He's too big-headed, arrogant and domineering. He won't have a fan's forum because he knows we've got a huge intellectual fanbase who would outsmart him at every turn. He only holds these little dinners for season ticket holders so that he can dominate the weak and get them onside. In fact, this a huge SFC psyops conducted by him but we're only seeing small snippets (car park charges, programme front covers etc). He's dumbing us down, not giving us the full picture and it'll be too late before we piece together all the small jigsaw pieces and realise what's happening to our club. By then, he'll have us paying £20 per game for parking. I've had enough of this - we should have seen the warning signs when he put himself on the cover of the programme. Where is Richard Chorley when you need him?

It wasn't massive, Norris/Ben-Haim handbags/ill-feeling and someone else laying into Fuctacs. Jason Pearce apparently ignored Clotterill at the end of the game, rofl.

He's on... Doesn't know why they were lethargic, sending off harsh "no more than a booking - I am beginning to feel like Kenny Dalglish over the last month, any mistake we're getting burnt and punished for". Still had a go at 10 men. Luck is deserting us. Criticising his own players now, saying they should have known what would happen as they were prepared. Getting spiky with interviewer now "that's a silly question" when Herdman had the temerity to say "Is it fair to say Adriano Basso had a quiet day?". Responds with "How many saves did Jamie have to make?". Interviewer named good chance for Hull. "What's your point?" was the response from Cotterill. Now he's getting blunt with Herdman about injury to Dave Kitson and talk of emergency loan. He totally contradicted himself by saying they didn't have enough cutting edge and then got sh1tty when the interviewer asked about their lack of efforts on goal, lolz.

They'll always be the better team no matter what happens in their fans eyes. They think Adkins is a sh1t manager...

Their players are kicking off at eachother, LOL

Sounds like they dominated the game lolololool

The post match interview is going to be comedy gold, we won't be disappointed!
