With regards to Palace and Southampton, both slumped but had the benefit of excellent academies and a constant supply of quality youngsters who came through and underpinned the team during their 'lean' years and both have risen dramatically thanks to such good set ups. We do not have that to fall back on, the way we are going we will face years of scratching about thanks to the stupidity of TF...
Firstly Beth I don't think you needed time to cool down nor do you have anything to apologise for. You maybe a Mod on this forum but first and foremost you are a supporter of our great [albeit slightly tarnished] club, therefore you are as entitled to express your opinion as anyone else. I don't want to see anyone sacked, I would like JFH to be given time to shape his team and see where we go. Having said that, I do expect him to instill some pride into the team and get them playing with some passion and desire, both of which are sadly lacking at present. It will be interesting to see what happens during this transfer window, I fully expect Charlie to be gone by Feb 1st so it will be interesting to see what our strike force looks like by then. Consolidation and stability is what I'm looking for from this point on.
Peter, I appreciate your attempt to educate me on facts and opinions but unfortunately we will have to agree to disagree. There must be quite a lot of 'unknowns' going on behind the scenes for henry to still get selected despite the relevance of scientific facts or the other facts you mention (of which I presume you mean opinions)
I've heard that someone buried it and marinated it for 100's of years, then dug it up, shaped it and cemented it onto a German football players head when he came to QPR. It's special powers will give goals.
I don't want him sacked Beth. I just want him to pick the right players in their right positions. I really don't think it's that difficult.
I so agree with you Col But I do think JFH.....is doing the best with what we have at the moment....he is looking at everyone. I think he is making his own decisions. According to the rumour mill he is looking at two backs, and a striker.... If that is so....I am pleased...we will see
