Mendip City

Agree unless, of course, you felt your job was on the line…

And this is a unique season… maybe not here but triggers will be pulled like crazy this weekend is my guess.

Will be telling should he come good somewhere else… He doesn’t even resemble the player I saw make his debut. one way or another he hasn’t progressed, who knows why, ability? Desire? Our inability to develop/get the best from him? good luck to him wherever he turns up next.

Given a 3 year contract just over 2 weeks ago but they’ve dropped into the bottom 3. Shows how Championship clubs think. The threat of relegation is too big a risk for them. We desperately need a win at the weekend to look like a lower-mid table club rather than a relegation threatened club. I can’t see JL/SL not taking the same action as Wigan should we lose. Relegation is just too costly. Especially with their newly appointed and trusted Tech Director to help recruit a new manager and oversee the month long break/mini-pre-season. Ideally we could do without the disruption so let’s hope we win on Saturday.

Or is this the first step in a post-Nige structure? Complete speculation on my part but the timing is interesting.

And Bentley. Shift one or more of those in January on free transfers and we might generate some of their wages to be ploughed into incoming free transfers.

Gary O’Neil - soon to be released by Bournemouth if rumours are correct. or what would people think of a Cotts comeback??? though I suppose if he’s added LJ also needs to be added to the list ??

Because he’s not going to get the job there and likely to be unemployed. Unlike Dyche he needs to build a reputation and is an up and coming coach. He’s a completely realistic target for a championship club with any desire to stay where they are.

Gary O’Neill isn’t getting the Bournemouth job… we could get him in quickly i’m sure.

If he was to walk…. Gary O’Neill anyone? Bournemouth seem to be messing him around.

Cov are a basket case but I still doubt Robins would choose us over them.

We need a win from somewhere. Great opportunity to play our strongest side and gain some confidence…. But no.

Possible should we also lose to Watford.

Agree and I’m pretty sure NP would if someone was talking negatively about one of our players!

Job for Steve Walsh? I’ve no idea where he is these days. I’m slightly bothered when it comes to key recruitment. SL seems to appoint people he already knows… that worked with RG but doesn’t always. Maybe a DoF recommended by NP would work!

I think I would too. This World Cup will be a similar test for me. It’s vile that it will happen in Qatar…. to what extent can I ignore it?

A completely logical rumour. If there’s truth in this AND the Tinns rumour it’s not great for the club, just when we’re starting to feel stable.

In the words of Saint and Greavsie “Friday night is Tranny night”!

I agree, hope it doesn’t happen but it is a bigger role, assuming the owner doesn’t meddle to much (which he might) this is a role heading up all things football at the club. Anyone know what his relation with NP is like? If Tinns really wants a wider role can it be achieved here?

Should be an interesting listen. For my money 3 takeaways: Time-wasting and refs incapable of dealing with it Naismith and NP’s refusal to deal with it Ridiculous substitutions and formation changes…. just as we’d got back into a game we should have been well out of.

It makes zero sense to me. If you do not want your brand to be associated with Qatar then either don’t supply kits at all or don’t have your logo/name/chevrons on there. Regardless of the colour Hummel’s logo will be visible at the World Cup, in Qatar. As an aside, it’s a really, really nice kit that would look great for us next season!

Thanks mate - I don’t use FB but just signed up and requested access to this. appreciate your help

Just realised there’s no pay on the day…. I’m now able to make it. If anyone has a spare I’d be happy to take it off your hands. Thanks. Failing that I’ll head for the home end…

And in a friendly…. And in November. Any idea why we were playing an international friendly in mid-season? (The sort of thing you’d see a current Prem team doing!).
