badgerx16 Posted 26 November, 2013 Share Posted 26 November, 2013 Don't you have to have a rudimentary grasp of English grammar, punctuation, and construction to be a journalist?

stevegrant Posted 26 November, 2013 Share Posted 26 November, 2013 But you have to consider the capabilities of his readership. And the fact that, in print, one sentence probably covers 4-5 lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

100%Red&White Posted 26 November, 2013 Share Posted 26 November, 2013 4 at the press conference. Oh how the mighty have fallen. Ahem "mighty"? Just seen a thread on the main board titled "Diego", I thought Corp-ho-ho-ho had returned to announce their next manager thanks to information from someone ITK who he sees socially every two weeks.

ericofarabia Posted 26 November, 2013 Share Posted 26 November, 2013 No mention of Avram making an heroic return? You'd have thought he'd jump at the chance, what with the club being down on it's knees, just how he likes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rallyboy Posted 26 November, 2013 Share Posted 26 November, 2013 How did they manage that?? And another 1,000 off the attendance - I don't want to set alarm bells ringing in the plucky boardroom but it's creeping down to that break-even target they quoted. The park is far from packed - only about 3,500 paying customers. And any sensible potential manager would look at that team and run for the hills. They need wholesale changes but they have a squad that has taken root like the previous ones, you can't offload the crap even on one year deals. In footballing terms, I think they have got themselves in a little bit of a pickle, on and off the park. Again. But to cheer them up, I can't see them managing to plummet into the bottom two.

LGTL Posted 26 November, 2013 Share Posted 26 November, 2013 The reality is hitting them, the tickertape, balloons and memories of that warm day against Oxford are long forgotten. They all "own their club" yet only a select few in it for themselves get any say on just about anything. This fan ownership really was the best outcome for us all. So tinpot, so funny.
