This is not a FACT I personally think we will get 1 forward midfield player in, and a loan CF to help out Ross, both loans.
These will not spend any money unless we sell 2 or 3.
They have been looking at the French kid for 3 weeks solid now.
What more do they need to know, ????.
He came up on Sunday night and then went straight back. WTF are we doing.
Hunter will turn that into a scoop.

If we're not spending money, why would we even bother looking at the "French kid" and bringing him over?
 
It's unusual, but there are more than you'd think who didn't play at the top but won things as a manager. Bertie Mee never played. Howard Wilkinson. Jose Mourinho barely at professional level. One or two others as well if I could remember them, but it's true they are very rare.

I dont think Arsene wenger played
 
He is going to " help" KLD?

The bloke has been clearly proven to be a liar, a chancer and very far out of his depth.

If we need his " help" , we are in a bit of bother.
he has been for months mate, thats why KLD has not been here much, working remote works well.

Martin O'Neil, very unfortunate Robertson retired as he joined us.

I don't understand why some folk have crack at some ex-pro's trying their hand at management.

Yes, it's all about the team's success, and yes it's all about the team not losing money or credibility etc..

However, they were employed by a Club Board...thinking that they have employed a football brain, right?

Okay, that ex-pro does'nt quite cut the mustard...and eventually get the sack...okay then that makes sense yeah.

But why the hell do they then get pilloried and lambasted for not bringing their player knowledge to the table FFS?

Do you think that they really want to get beat, week in and week out?

Hero to Zreo ?......

Yeah so Clubs turn on these once hero's....when a team falls on bad times...or gets relegated....like..

Shearer, Quinny, Bryan Robson.....

We loved these heros....and I bet you all that you can name loads more...

Lampard is also hurting like ****...

I think the reason the likes of Lampard and Gerrard are getting stick is that they thought that working their way up the leagues and learning the management trade didn't suit them. Playing at a decent level and thinking you know how to pass on that knowledge and actually doing it is a different matter. Lampard was only at Derby 5 mins before he jumped ship to Chelsea and Gerrard spent money at Rangers to make them successful and it's since come out that it was his assistant Beale that did all the tactical stuff there and at Villa.

Yeah, good points..

But they were always going to be icons of respect in tthe dressing rooms to motivate the young'ns...and even if they were found out not to be enough, they then were still slammed for not having the answers....

....it's a hard life.
 
What's I missed, who's coming back to help KLD?

Donald I assume, be more helpful to get Donald ****ing Duck in.

Quick edit Bob reckons Donald is coming back to help him and then half hour later said he has been back helping a while.

You could say that about any manager though, that's why club chairman sack the manager/head coach rather than point the finger at the players. Anyways back to hopefully hearing about any incomings soon

Why the **** would KLD have Donald helping he's the bad smell we can't get rid of and is only hanging on for a final pay day, KLD doesn't need to be here as .uch as he was , he has created a team that is running the club and Donald isn't one of them, he proved how incapable he was at running a club so KLD doesn't even want him at the club let alone participating in the running of it no matter what he tells Bob, who if you look back has had no info other than cryptic statements since Donald got pushed to the back of the queue.
I mean just 2 weeks ago he was claiming Patterson was on £700 a week and Stewart had been offered £1000 more for his new contract, his info was coming from Donald and now ghat has stopped it's all guess work
 
Good afternoon are u referring to me by any chance, OH and only 1 Amigo has left the other 1 is coming back to help KLD.
I think he's telling you a few porkies, KLD has a team running the club for him so certainly doesn't need someone that can't wipe his own backside, who did his best to ruin the club involved, this KLD first came in one of his main objectives is to get him out the door
