What an idiot I am ...

... ffs!

I was told by an ITK mate that Nathan Jones, the Luton manager, was about to leave despite flying with them and being idolised by the supporters.

I posted it on RTG, whacked a big lump of money on and suffered the ridicule of Luton supporters who thought he'd never leave.

I made a lot of money.

The same lad told me to put money on him departing Stoke if they didn't beat Huddersfield.

I've been so busy i totally forget to put money on it and am now praying he stays and makes a success of it.

What are my chances ...

 

High. Stoke owners are very patient.

 

Betting's for idiots, apparently, Smug

 

I totally agree mate.

I don't bet on guesswork but got prior info about Jones leaving Luton.

If he's sacked in the morning I'll bet you £500 I'll feel sick

 

Yeah . . . . but you didn't tell me, did you

 

I heard today that they are eying Pulis up for a return.
If he makes it to the weekend id defo put a few quid on if i was you.

 

Surely you are not expecting anyone to disagree with your thread title?

 

Only 2 points from 10 games, 6 from safety, not looking good for him

 

Huddersfield at home was his get out of jail card tbh ...
... looks like the players don't like him.

 

Arghhh, the Sunderland way... playing at home in the bet666 (sic) stadium doesn't help either

 

Serves him right. He left Luton in a great position and could’ve really dislodged their season. He deserves to fail! Grass isn’t greener

 

Bit harsh that marra as no one will know the full facts, Luton don't appear to be coping as well as Charlton but Barnsley are 2nd bottom on 5 points so maybe any div 3 team would struggle to adapt? Us included.

 

I have no doubt we’d struggle but what jones did was swap a solid team looking up for one on its way down. FWIW I rate Bowyer as a manager. As a person he’s a twat! But as a manager he’s looking every bit the part. Jones did very well at Luton and moved to what he perceived as a better prospect. I have little to no sympathy!!

All 3 much better sides than we were last season and in a less competitive season this year in the c'ship.
We would need a complete new team. Given ross is barely coping despite having an embarassment of riches ( comparatively ) he really is going to struggle if, by some freak, we get promoted with him

 

I don’t think it’s his fault. That Stoke squad is ****ing awful now.

They totally ****ed it trying to be ‘anything but Stoke’.

 

Odd question but have you just been made a mod as you weren't showing up as one before ?

 

No I've been a mod for a few years on here.

 

Oh apologies, its just i checked your account when i joined as i knew a Sunderland supporter called Marcus down in North West many years ago.
Dont think it showed you as a mod.
Anyway, ignore me, i was drunk last night and im sounding like the thread title

 

no bother mate - different one to me - the only forums I have ever been on are this one and the original BBC 606 site before it closed. Registered on a few but couldn't get into them like I did this one. We have our share of idiots and decent posters in a 20/80 split I'd say - although that percentage may change in the coming weeks
