Changing a winning side then losing the next . Him not getting on with ALL of our strikers and bringing in 2 on loan that he badly man managed. Playing silly buggers with our keepers and not getting in a decent back up when they both flopped after chopping and changing. Not getting a proper centre back in closed season and not signing a permanent improvement as striker when cash rich and silly money at stake. Answering every question with yeah and not totally flipping out on the touchline when things **** up. Just looking angry doesn't cut it. If signing players was not his fault then stick a boot up Mcnallys arse and question his stewardship regarding recruitment. We went with the bargain basement signings in the summer and sold high then payed over the odds in January for a washed up Jock and lost Adobe.
Glad someone is coming round to my way of thinking. Keep AN (which we undoubtedly will of course), and you can forget any hope of bouncing straight back next term. The blame isn't entirely his fault of course, after all you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear, but his naivety has cost us dear. McNally's the one, he's paid a King's ransom by the club and he's well and truly ****ed up with player recruitment. Forget about the bollocks about players not wanting to come here, pay the going rate, take the odd gamble, they'll come. Unfortunately the only gamble McNally's made is bringing in a rookie manager on the cheap then failing to sack him when it was obvious to anyone with half a ****ing brain that he was not up to the task. You see, even with the pile of ****e players he had at his disposal there was still enough there to finish above three other teams. As soon as the season ends AN should be shown the door and ideally David 'Teflon' McNally should fall on his sword also. Rant Over
I obviously want to see significant changes at the club over the summer, but before a change of manager I would rather see changes to the playing staff (younger players) and more importantly changes to our transfer policy. Keep.
KIO bor, I wonder what the board are feeling about not laying their hands on that £174 million PL teams will be getting next season. That is what this season was all about. What they could have done with that money. The board make the decisions regarding staff appointments, it is now their decision to make preparations for next season. Who do you fancy to meet next season, Sunderland or Newcastle ? Because either one will provide strong opposition to us getting back in the PL.
After today? Keep him still. Jerome, Howson, Olsson, Martin, Bassong, Bennet, redmond, O' Neil, Whittaker? SELL. And even at a loss. Blood the youth. And make them bleed yellow and green
