The last one from them got us into this mess 

not sure what the Sheffield Wednesday fans thought about a load of their end cheering during the minutes silence.

@robinforlife2 I know you said you wouldn't post again but can you put us out of our misery and tell us what's going on?

Yeah I get that. I’ve been asked a few times by mates who I’d want, and for some reason this time round I just don’t really have an opinion on who as long as it isn’t Nathan Jones. 

Wouldn’t have minded a coach coming in from abroad to see something a bit different but not that arsed either way. 

I get your point regarding Lampard, but will equally piss some of our fans off being referred to as FLBC but then at least we are being spoken about as you say. 

 

Bristol city's frank lampad sounds much better than other way round

I've often wondered  what happens to the glory hunting fans when a team they started supporting when they were winning everything go on a slump. Do they stick with them through thick and thin or swap shirts and next go to Cribbs causeway in a man city or spurs top based on current form?

I know alot of PHD holders who are also as stupid as two short planks.

I agree, my sister has a law degree and once asked me when she was setting up an aquarium arround what fish food they needed followed by "ok so what do i give them to drink"

I'm not totally against the idea if I'm being honest. His record with derby and Chelsea is decent. Would prefer him to some of the other options mentioned.

He dodged the investment question completely

Open season.

SL and JL have rightly come in for some pelters, now its Tinnions turn based on innuendo and heresay.

I think the main reason for all the speculation on here is the complete lack of communication from the board, if people below jl are not responsible for persons sacking then its nothing short of cowardice for jl to hide behind staff and not make a better statement/interview to explain the reasoning for this, otherwise this will roll on and the new manager is on a hiding to nothing.

Edit he just responded

2nd edit not great response, needs a much more robust interview than that.

Maybe differing perspectives having slept on it.

To be fair I’ve never seen anything like it on here. 

I would be interested to know what nige has done wrong.

In the last 3 years his team and Gould reversed the financial issues and he turned us from a team who would go on horrific streaks of loses and so many last minute loses where we were weak mentally and unable to see out a match with several players on over inflated salary and egos who were dead wood he needed to sort. 

How many of the youth players would be on loan rather than breaking through into the first team as we have seen under Nige, and signing extensions whereas before they would have gone on frees.

Despite limited funds he managed to slowly evolve us unto a competitive championship team. We have been hit with horrific bad luck with injuries and seeing star players leave with no money coming back Where the money was not reinvested into the playing staff. Even with these obstacles  I still believed that we were about to turn a corner in November with injury returns.

On the other hand we have club ownership who to be fair have transformed the ground and training facilities and invested lots of money, but time and time again make the wrong decisions on the playing side often interfering with the team (buying david james/questioning Andy king etc) switching us to an amateur kit supplier, logo redesign dean holden etc. The reasons the fans are upset is that we know that they just want a yes man installed and the first decent chance of progression has been taken away from us by a bonkers non footballing decision. 

It's almost feels like JL is treating us like a plaything and where SL has always been patient with managers, JL seems to be too reactionary without having a clear idea of how to reach his aims.

Who on earth can the board replace him with that will do a better job then he has done?

Just watched the episode with the abuse following red card. Fergie was incredible how he protected him and put him back together it clearly showed why hoddle would never hold a candle to him.
