Roger Red Hat

I think I shall leave now, I quite fancy an Estrella tonight

Damm!

Sorry to be negative but I can't see us getting anything from this

A serious injury maybe?

hes still got time to start winning. sheff utd have proved that 2 games after being below us in the table.anyone apart from the top 6-10 could get sucked into this mire during the run in.

fingers crossed some rockets were launched saturday and we can start playing again.if cloughie can do it,why cant sc? we will see

Because he's not Cloughie?

The perception is there that Mr Cotterill is a bullshitter. He can change that.

Coming from the Cowshed, this opinion carries some weight.

Yes and after 3 games in 1976/77 we were second in the old First Division - what a lost opportunity.

 

In fact weren't we top after 11 minutes of this season?

 

 

 

Not in name but think you will find one of his roles was to manage. If not the board sacked the wrong man.

 

 

Wouldn't agree or disagree with any of that none of it is any part of my point. It's just your opinion and at least you haven't resorted as many others have, of hammering OUR manager with counter productive personal insults.

You may have a point there!

No, he was asked which English coaches he admired.

 

There is a difference, and SOD may well be a good coach, but demonstrated that for us he was not a good manager.

 

 

It should also be said that earlier in the interview Rogers also mentioned Harry Redknapp as somebody he greatly admired as a manager.

He wasn't manager.

So why hasn't this unbelievably gifted manager walked into another job then, but instead being touted for the Shrewsbury job which he didn't even get??

 

Brendan Rogders didn't have to watch SODS football for 8 months, or listen to his dire, depressing interviews..

Nor did you.

cotterill is on His side, not ours, he manipulated his way into the job through his (( alleged : friendship with our anonymous chairman, of the many awful decisions made by our awful board this will go down in bcfc history as one of the worse, I repeat cotterill is on no bodys side but his own ! awful manager + a embarassment havin g him representing my

I tend to agree. I think the bloke has an over inflated opinion of his abilities, although I cant work out why!

The SOD love in is tiring now, his record was atrocious he deserved to be sacked. End of.

Ok everybody, its time to stop having your opinion on SOD..................FACT..............

It's deja vu all over again - maybe we should be called the Bristol Groundhogs...

.......yes, we're permanently in a daze...............

Cheer up :-) what's the worst that can happen we get relegated have to play in a league where our youngsters get a season or two of playing and growing into a team? That's the worst assuming the senior pros have relegation clauses and get to take a pay check for failure.

The best is we start again next season in this league with a clean slate. That's assuming we don't string together a run to the playoffs

But our youngsters wont be allowed a season or two will they, we'll be in the relegation zone, a different manager will be appointed and a new bunch of journeymen will be imported, as experience will be needed to haul us out of trouble........................oh wait a minute................

Why, every time, when I look at the title of this thread do I read it as 'I'm a wa nker'?

What is that meant to mean?

I was thinking of the Pinball Wizard's disabilities.

The fact there is still almost a quarter of the season to go and the fact we begin to play much more beatable teams.

April will see us secure safety. Look at the fixture list... Crucial clashes at home.

We are staying up. I'm confident of that.

The Pinball Wizard speaks.....................

Personally I didn't like him. He just had no charm or likeability factor. It doesn't take much.

..And of course thats the key qualities needed..............jeez....................

It's called bring a fan. It goes with the territory.

Is that like bring a bottle?

We've gone behind in every game in 2014

Still, at least we're a better team since "cotts" came through the door.................

Have we conceded again yet?

Have we conceded yet?

 intelligence has never been a pre-requisite to play, coach or manage a football team?, some people claimed that SOD was intelligent but far more thought of him as miserable bumbling buffoon.

Did they? How many for, how many against?

 

 

I would be interested to know what Cotts has brought to the party over and above SO'd? Serious question to the Board.

Didn't you know?

"Cotts" doesn't sniff in interviews and he's able to talk the same bollocks that most managers talk and he's not miserable. A very sensible criteria for appointing a manager apparently, don't you think?

Just what I feared, its early days, and I really hope to be proved 100% wrong.......but Cotterill talks a good game, and likes to blather on, but he really is not the long term solution, and is the wrong manager to have been given a long term contract..........feel free to shoot me down

Surely you're not questioning the boards decision making?

Exactly. Brett would score 30+ if he was still with us this season..

He may well, but we'll never know! Shouldn't you write "FACT" at the end of your statement?

Pitman has those chances - we win the game.

End of

He wouldn't have had them!!

Yes.

Sheffield Utd home to me was the lowest point reached in years in terms of football, atmosphere, result , everything.

Took my brother to Watford home and he hasn't been for ages (on account of serving in the Israeli Army!) and he noted the first 20 mins he saw better passing and football from City than he saw in any game under the last guy.

Strange Cotterill came with a reputation of hoofball. O'Driscoll came with a passing football reputation and it's Cotts who has actually brought the exciting football while the other guy brought shite.

I'm thrilled with a point today given where we were.

Errrrr, that'll be because he hasn't been for ages, wouldn't it? How could he have seen what the last guy was producing?
