Greenridge

Won the match. Lost the xG.

He kept referring to the stats and was in denial about the performance. Answered most questions as if he was a politician i.e. he didn’t answer the question. Mulitiple times referred to the importance of Wednesday’s game. So if that result goes wrong then he’s exposed himself.

Listening to him is like listening to paint dry. Rose tinted glasses don’t change that, sorry. I don’t particularly care if he has a personality for the fans or the press but eff me he needs to be able to motivate his team and I just don’t see it. With regard to towing the party line, was he not doing that on this short successful run while interim?

His very first interview was the giveaway. He might have been nervous so we can give him some slack for that but by god he’s the most boring uninspiring manager we’ve ever had. It’s easy to see why we’re so shit after his halftime team talks. Most of the players have probably slipped into a coma.

Being universally slaughtered by Charlton and Bristol supporters on the Clubs X announcement…..

You didn’t have to be Nostradamus to predict what we’re now seeing. It was as obvious as night following day. If so many could see it playing out this way, how come the ‘experts’ at SFC couldn’t?

I met him the week he signed and was introduced to him as I was there doing some consultancy work with SFC. The thing that immediately struck me was how small he was both in height and stature. Really small by modern goalkeeper standards.

Starting to remind me of the team tombola selection strategy of Burley and Puell.

Are you actually digging at him for the goal? Jesus wept.

His impact this season has been incredible. I wonder if there might be bids for him in January…

I’m not sure. I fell asleep.

I don’t know about the players, but after watching the press conference he’s certainly got me fired up!

No wonder Still didn’t want him anywhere near the first team.

Did he go out for dinner with Downes?

I assume that’s why he got the nod ahead of the crab style of Downes.

We have no fit RB’s and don’t have two decent CB’s so we go for quantity over quality.

Just endured his 10 minute press conference. His avoidance of the four or five questions Blackmore posed on his position certainly hints that the job is his to lose. He gives old Claudey a run for his money in the interesting stakes. Hopefully he sends the team out with a little more enthusiasm.

Same could be said for Jones, Selles, Juric, Still. But they didn't.

149 are Saintsweb members

That’s the spirit 😂

It’s seemingly based on the fact that all our CB’s are pants so their solution is to add numbers to offset lack of ability. Albeit that leads to a load of other problems that we are all too aware of. I’d have Quarshie in there. Yes, he’s going to make mistakes but then all our CB’s do too. His energy, strength and determination are much needed in this physically and mentally weak team.

Every time I look at this thread I see the title New Manager Debacle.

Most of the comments are a bit meh

It's going to be interesting to see what side he puts out tomorrow and at the weekend.

To me
