    I don't know why Manning persists with playing him up top by himself. Its so frustrating for everyone, including Tommy

    If you are going to play a lone striker then Cornick is better suited to that role imo 

    Alright saying it now, this place would have a meltdown if cornick started

    I can see Tommy wanting to leave this summer if the new head coach, what's his name? continues to play him on his own without any decent passes to use and expecting him to score from the pathetic service he's receiving.

    Liam Manning is the Head coaches name👍

    If it's the game I'm thinking of, that was prime Tinnion management, he'd called out the team from the prior week put a load of kids in and promptly got spanked. It was a pretty disgraceful game.

    Yeah thats it we were all singing going down with the rovers 😂

    It's almost like TGH is a young player and has only half a season. I'm glad we're not those type of fans that write players off fast 

    I'm not writing him off, simply saying we should see howbthe season goes as the fee may not reflect the player in 5 months time.

    The same as we shouldn't rush to sign him after 3 good games !

    Things went south today when James and Weimann went off.  We were being bullied and took 2 players off who know how to cope in those situations.  They looked like winning all 2nd half. 

    Weimann had probably the worst game I've seen him play for City. 

    In my opinion obviously

  6. I wouldn't rush to sign tgh in my opinion, he's played well in games and then dissapeared in others. Joe Williams must be playing for a contract as he's never played this well for this amount if time (which annoys me).

  7. People that say he isn't qualified, he has to learn somewhere. He's a bloody club legend I'd rather have him than some faceless suit l. For all we know in a couple of years time he might be fantastic at this role and will be gutted when he leaves.

    Anyway 3 points today

    I disagree, but I’ll live with it! 😁😁😁

    It’s a funny one, because all those “off the pitch” things - finances, culture, academy opportunity, more senior player development (eg Vyner), etc, ultimately culminates in what we then see “on the pitch”, which was finally an identity.  A small group of similar(ish) ability players (bar Scott and Semenyo) prepared to play for each other, that in some ways was beginning to evolve into something better that the sum of the individual parts. 

    I enjoyed what I saw on the pitch.  I get why others didn’t though.

    I think Manning is a good appointment as a successor to what Nige built.  Harry and I have been chatting pretty positively about him.

    For me I will look back on pearsons reign positively, not only was a wage structure put in place but also gave this club a backbone again. I feel like the days of signing players like Chris brunt are gone for good.

    Yes, maybe I should have been more specific and said performance and result. I think for a game to be memorable in a favourable way at this level, there has to be a win. 

    Maybe what I'm trying to get at in a roundabout way is that Nige's legacy might be more about what he did off the pitch (for which we should be very grateful), rather than on it. I guess time will tell.

    Exactly this
