Let's look at the facts, here's what my main points have been on this forum over the years... 1. Sack Nigel Pearson. OK, he left on his own, but thank **** he did. 2. Sack Nick Barmby. I actually feel a bit sorry for him now, it would have been nice to have him around if he is actually a City fan. He should have never been manager though, which leads me to... 3. Sack Adam Pearson. Would this have happened if this ambitionless **** was still here? Doubt it, we'd have been fighting his other success story, Derby, for 10th place. 4. Don't sack Paul McShane. Hero. Enough said. So there you go Stan, not deluded, just always right.
I think you missed: 5. Duffen is God - deluded 6. Brown is Jesus - deluded 7. Bullard is divine - deluded
You're right as far as you go, but: 1/ Duffen 2/ Phil Brown (post-Meltdown) 3/ Jimmy Bullard Still completely right?
A year from now, everyone's going to be discussing why Macca got a new deal, immediately after we got out of the last ridiculous deal we gave him. He'd be a decent addition for any Championship club and a terrible addition for any Premier League club.
so true haha, hes going to go from hero to zero if he actually starts many games for us next season. its a shame as he actually seems like a top bloke.
I'd much rather we gave players a chance than persisted with labelling every player a specific division they are capable of playing in. Alex Bruce was going to be crap and he's had a great season. We should learn from that.
I don't think Alex Bruce has been great, I think he's been okay, but if we plan on playing him in Premier League, we won't be there long.
It's never as simple as people think. Who'd have thought Gary Taylor-Fletcher would end up playing well and scoring in a good attacking side in the PL? Jon Walters is another fine example. Bruce can't keep the ball to save his life, but he can defend and that's more than can be said for some of the defenders we had in the PL last time around.
