Hes afraid that someone who knows that hes NOT REALLY a football manager will creep up behind him and spill the beans.......... Reminds me of a used car salesman anxious not to miss out on a sale..........dodgy wide boy

And this is where the anti-Sodites and Cotterettes will be seen to be hypocritical. SOD came in half way through a transfer window with no funds provided to him, with a team in 24th place and 20 games remaining. Cotts came in 4 weeks before a transfer window, with funds being promised, with a team in 23rd place and 28 games remaining. The anti-Sodites blamed SOD for our relegation last season. If we get relegated this season, the Cotterettes will still blame SOD, even though he has taken over a team better placed, with 8 more games and more funds available.

Yeah, I'm in no way defending the previous Manager and his poor record - it is quite indefensible. But, had Fielding not had that mad moment v Bradford, Fonts not effed up a simple ball over the top v Cov, Baldock slotted into an empty net away at MK, Balders again put his chance away at Gills, Flint not passed it to Lee Hughes at Vale, Waggy not unnecessarily bundled over his man in injury time at Crewe then SOD might easily have had an extra 10 points on the board and things looking healthier. I've mentioned many times during Sod's reign how the player errors were telling - and that it was the more experienced players making these errors, but it was a futile argument according to most on here. All's I'm now suggesting is that the anti-Sodites bleated on and on about Sod being responsible and yet now all we're hearing from the Cotterettes is how the players individual errors are to blame, when in actual fact, the situation is exactly the same - ergo, was a change at the top necessary? Folks on here can't have it both ways - either the players are at fault or the manager is at fault, not one or the other depending on who you like.
