    I'd be lying if I said I had any idea mate.

    I have absolutely no idea from that side of things.

    My snippets are coming from the club's point of view.

    It's more often than not a question of staff rather than wages and choice of desk ornaments.

    There is that impression of him, and I daresay he might be a bit of an arrogant twat (just based on a few people on here/ SMB who have said they've seen him and interacted with him, one or two you can ignore but when it's more than that you can see a pattern!). That being said I've never heard players of his complain about his methods, he seems to get a good level of commitment from them. At least I don't think we'd be a soft touch under him. As you say we've had a few nice blokes as manager, maybe it's time to try having an arsehole

    Your first post was 25 minutes ago, it was mentioned over the road 6 minutes later. Standards are slipping :emoticon-0117-talki

    I have to agree. Because we had to bring in a whole team on short notice, we got some good, mostly average and a few duds.
    I doubt Ross had a huge influence on the incomings last year, and he had to work with what was available.
    A new manager might put a bit more fitness and urgency into the squad, but we really need some new blood.

    He did seem a nice guy, his demeanor however was ****e. The next manager in must show passion, and build a relationship with the fans ....

    Just a quick cryptic message to Dobble Mackem only, please ignore.

    Since I posted about Fuhrman I've been contacted by lots of people with info, some on here and some from elsewhere.

    There are 3, on here, who contact me daily through pm.

    I pass on what they allow me to.

    I'm not personally itk on anything to do with the club and don't seek attention or crave likes or any such shyte.

    I'm a grown man with other concerns than praise/criticism from a bunch of strangers on a little chat forum.

    I’m at a point now when I just say get it ****ing done, we don’t want to be going into the weekend managerless.

    I still maintain it should be Stendel, and the second he left Barnsley within hours of Ross departing there should have been a conversation along the lines of ‘well, that was a godsend’.

    I don’t buy that Pearson has done a good job anywhere but Leicester personally, he’s plodded along. When he left Hull they were massively underachieving from expectation that season if I recall correctly.

    Let’s just get it done and hope for an immediate impact.
