  1. No mistaking fucking Rylan though unfortunately.

    I read this week that Paul Tisdale has been appointed as head of football operations at Celtic. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/articles/ced03v536qgo made me think, he's possibly the sort of person that could have completed a similar role for us, has had practical management experience, and widely regarded as a fairly astute. If he can be entrusted with a role at club playing in Europe every season he clearly has something to offer. But of course probably wouldn't fit in with the Ted Talk, skinny jeans culture that our man behind a "philosophy" of reinventing the game has set in place.

    Dragan isn’t the main offender though is he, he’s actually put money into the club? Rasmus has rightly (or wrongly in one poster’s eyes anyway) been identified as the (pantomime) villain.

    Easier said than done. We’ve been here several times before. Is this time for an open letter, and fly past message ?
  5. Some interesting points raised there, but so far only Forest and Wolves have raised their heads. Not making too many friends in the process. I think a self imposed independent review would at least establish confidence in the system.
  6. All I saw was the standard referee checking for possible foul (or penalty, can’t recall precise phrase). After they scored it, the score briefly went back to 0-0 (perhaps a default option), before they updated it to 2-2. Perhaps someone could look into a way of hacking the system. ‘The refs a bald cunt’ would have been a good summary to display yesterday.
  7. To balance things re Gerald Ashby he was also the ref who gave the penalty when Rod Wallace went over in injury time v Newcastle, c1989. Ruddock scored it.
  8. Is this the Chairman’s vote of confidence?
  9. Or he could have two relegations before the Board realise his shortcomings. If he takes us down, and keep him then, we stay down.
  10. Downes would be delighted!
  11. If we’re going for a panic mid-season appointment then it will most probably be a manager without a club. Can’t see someone like Corberan being interested, or us shelling out big compensation.
  12. Well that’s decided then. Do you think he’d be remotely interested?
  13. Agree Lallana doesn’t offer the level of aggression we need in midfield. Thank Christ we’ve got Smallbone.
  14. Please no. If he takes us down then he is part of the ‘scar tissue’ for next season. And certainly no credibility among the support
  15. Roy Cropper. Old cunt. Saw him after the game being helped to his feet by a couple of coppers. Rishi decked him on the way back to the station.
  16. No mention of beating Derby’s record low points then. That should be the first target.
  17. Do you mean six games, last season or this ?
  18. Can’t you just deflate her and put her back in the wardrobe ?
  19. Do you think the Jocks will want him when Clark is replaced?
  20. I recall a heart in mouth moment when Daly (can’t recall his first name) hit the bar in 1976 Cup Final at 0-0. Not often mentioned now, and doubt you’d find it many history books. Who’s complaining? (Similarly Romeu in the 2017 League Cup final). Not wishing to detract from your overall point about our approach.
  21. Didn’t seem to do his career any harm
  22. Surprised he hasn’t been on the bench more often. Perhaps behind Wood in the pecking order. Expect he could be involved v Stoke
  23. Had an away win v Nathan Jones didn’t he?
  24. And how would any of us be expected to know that ?
  25. Is he though, apart from on the message boards of course ? I haven’t detected too much hostility or backlash at games. Might change tomorrow though. If you look back though, most managers weren’t universally popular, and could be described as ‘dividing opinion’, even Lawrie in his early years. Not making a comparison between RM and Lawrie by the way.
