The Gasbuster Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 If Wednesday do get relegated; Pulis will quit just before it happens. The arsehole won’t want a relegation on his c.v. As we all know, he loves bragging that he has never been relegated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxjak Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 I can definitely see LJ as a Call centre manager or as David Brent in the "Office".............pretty much nails it? POMO.........."sorry if I'm getting too technical" Almost off the scale points wise on the Pseudometer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exAtyeoMax Posted December 13, 2020 Report Share Posted December 13, 2020 6 minutes ago, The dastardly red said: Some cracking jargon from Lee post match. I like Dean but do find his interviews can be a little dry. Lee seems to put a lot of effort into preparing buzz phrases which can be quite inspiring for the players and galvanising for the club as a whole. I've not heard him use "protocol" in this context before, I quite like it as a buzz word, he used it several times this week so I imagine it'll crop up fairly regularly for a while. Not many "if you likes" though but I'm expecting those to increase once he's settled in up there. I've got an innate repulsion towards buzzwords in any context.

Major Isewater Posted December 15, 2020 Report Share Posted December 15, 2020 On 13/12/2020 at 14:12, NickJ said: He's managed to get a reference to Kenny Dalglish in an interview apparently saying that Sunderland would build a statue of Lee if he got them promotion - do I believe KD actually said that, no - and Lee even managed to elaborate on that by suggesting it would be like Arsene Wenger's statue at Arsenal, or something like that. It's cringingly compelling, or compellingly cringy. They can have this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to see the Sunderland fans forum when the steak starts I wonder if he believed it when he said he something along the lines of, we’ll be playing European football within five years?

There’s plenty of metrics by which we can judge LJ, some positive, some negative. Height isn’t one of them. Anyway, Brendan Rodgers is 5’7.

The players Johnson has to convince. This is the point. What are small men in wider and popular culture - are they taken seriously, or are they made fun of? Are they respected, or the subject of comedy? Take a look at the top class coaches and managers - none of them are little fellows. Why would that be - coincidence?
