    How did it sound? -

    Probably pretty downbeat as they all seemed to like Edwards as a person and to talk with but got to give Bilic a chance.

    That includes everyone from fans, players and maybe most importantly owners/board room members!

    He seems pretty open and honest himself and talks to the media well.

    He came across as being in two minds - like a lot of others really. Worried about the image of the club due to the constant change of coaches, but understands why it happened. I didn't listen to it all as I found him very hard to follow as a speaker - similar style to Bojo in that he kept going off on a tangent and used too many 'ahhs & ums'.

    Maybe as they can be inflexible lacking the nouse to change tactics but then 2 very experienced managers didn’t work out either last season.

    Was that because the players weren’t keen on them and their tactics/formation etc?

    He obviously saw in a day or so what we had been seeing for 6 or 7 games and acted on it, and it worked

    Interesting comments about Sarr we may see the Liverpool Sarr a bit more often this season

    I am hoping the number 10 he talks about is the actual number 10 Joao Pedro

    He obviously likes Sema so will be interesting when everyone is fit

    I was talking about this today. It was definitely at the training ground last season. I don’t know about now, though.

    I guess they'd need video evidence to back up his claim - or an admission from Louza. The ref did nothing so either ignored or didn't see the alleged incident.
    Being spat at and spat on are two different things - every player on a football pitch spits, so the action could easily be misconstrued. If Louza's spitting is anything like his shooting, there's every likelihood that he wasn't aiming at anyone anyway.

    I was looking at our results in the 2014/15 promotion season and Jokanavic lost 4 in a row at the start of his spell as manager.

    Wonder what the reaction of fans was then and how did he survive such a run of results ?

    I don’t think Bilic would now !

    Unfortunately form prevailed - yet again scoreless, lost 1-0.
