Pretty much spot on for me… I always thought, as you say, pretending Stephens was the second coming of Beckenbauer and effectively disrupting what was, at the time one of the best back lines in the league almost cost us promotion and it was only really our quality overall that got us over the line Charles was nowhere near as bad as Russell made out, he literally just played more direct then he wanted

Will Still’s the one Still’s the one we cheer for The only ginger we adore Will Still’s playing FM tonight Will Still’s the one Will Stills the manager for me He fucking hates Pompey Will Stills in red and white

Yeah, as per usual its lazy rubbish from a lot of fans that lack critical thinking As much as we relied too heavily on them, the younger players have ‘largely’ been ok.. its the majority of the ‘ready to go’ players that SR have signed that have been woeful

We’ll spend 30m max imo, more likely around 20m

Ahh that would make more sense. Still, its a huge figure for a Championship club, especially if they feel Still is a similar pedigree… and personally Id be happy with either

I actually think its about £10m or something stupid

We don’t have the squad for a Dyche appointment even if we wanted him, which thankfully we don’t

Derby literally got into the playoffs the year before abd narrowly missed out the year before that Coventry… ok, but again they’re a good side at this level, did well turning them around though But he’s not achieved anything, Id put him roughly on the same level as martin was really, purely because martin was highly regarded as a coach

In what way has he proven that then

You keep saying this shite… like any league there is a roughly defined way of play, for the majority. The prem can be different to many leagues, to the point you get a lot of coaches saying they get caught out by the physicality of it The championship is no different, but added to that, you play games thick and fast and often have to adapt towards the latter stages as teams get ready for playoff runs Now Im ok with Will Still, I think he’ll be fine.. but you’ve said this ‘label for the game’ bullshit about 8 times like you’ve got it out of a fortune cookie and its utter crap

Exactly 😂

I never said he did Do keep up

Who still hasn’t achieved fuck all Not sure why we’re going round in circles

Ligue 1 is a higher standard to the Championship

Oh ok… so 2 out of three that havn’t achieved anything

Nevermind Ive just seen, Lampard, a guy thats *checks notes* not achieved anything either

Who would you rather ?

Unfortunately Im well aware of MLGs MO Shame on me for continuing to be drawn in by it

Fair point 😂

Im not against Will Still, I think he’s a good progressive manager and, tbh, has a far superior CV to Rohl But personally, because of how vital it is to be promoted and, once there, pragmatically stay in the prem, I would have personally probably preferred Cooper But it is what it is… Rohl’s insistence to wait for a bigger job, unless he’s been sounded out already, feels a bit odd

Are we at the stage now where we’re going to blame RA for every wrong decision and someone else for the right ones ?

Things are always vague to protect sources But I can tell you it was part if the reason for Delap moving to Ipswich and why we almost lost out on Downes

Talking of deafening I see you completely ignored my post pertaining to the fact Parsons was directly implicated in being obstructive to our summer transfer business Tbh though, ive been on this forum for probably best part of 20 years, quite how the mods allow you to consistently derail basically every thread is beyond me

I can’t see Leipzig going for a relatively untested championship manager
