nellie Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 Months of pointless passing the ball across the back 3/4/5/6 followed by a hoof to Baldock....... I mist have missed the quality football this season dont worry if it is Cotterill we will still get the Hoof bit and allot of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Red Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 Last straw for me if they appoint a hoofball merchant. I don't think even our bunch of comedians would do that. See tomorrows local rag for confirmation of his 2yr contract. I seriously wouldn't put anything past this lot. I really, really hope this is just speculation and nothing more.

TETBURY MASSIVE Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 There is going to be some people with serious egg on their faces if Steve Cotterill is appointted. I watch a lot of football and believe me his teams are more pro football than people give him credit for. But hey we all know what this forum is like...... Once labelled and made a scape goat thats it. People have short memories on here and dont seem to be able to remember the truth..... Holloway..... Check youtube..... Warnock.....Colin wasn't it? I say bring Steve Cottetill on.... Let's ruffle a few feathers.... Get some wins under our belt and climb the table!! No surrender and keep the red flag flying high! Onwards and upwards.

Mr Mosquito Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 In keeping with the theme of a new thread appearing every five minutes on OTIB during BCFC's annual 'Manager Appointing Month', I thought I'd start a thread on the overwhelming favourite with Sky Bet, Steve Cotterill. His odds are now 8/15 with them... http://www.skybet.com/football/specials/manager-specials What do people think of the possibility of him as BCFC's next manager? At least we'd be able to keep up the influx of Florest players... This club is in trouble and will be in even bigger trouble without a manager as the drop to Div 2 looms large. I'm sure Steve Cotterill is capable of keeping us up and that's all that matters at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TETBURY MASSIVE Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 If Steve Cotterill is appointted then he is more than capable to keep us up. I'm willing to bet with anyone that if he joins us he will defo get us in better shape and when he eventually leaves we will be in a much better position than we are now!!!

Rich_s Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 Isn't the only successful period of Cotterill's management career from about 10-15 years back with Cheltenham? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpaul Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 Would be a disaster. Terrible terrible manager. Never really taken much notice of his career? Why will it be a disaster? and why is he a terrible manager? Not looking to be confrontational, just intrigued by your sweeping statement. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not looking to be confrontational, just intrigued by your sweeping statement. Thanks My problem is the style of football. He only ever had sustained success at Cheltenham He is more of a short term fixer now (well that is how it appears), never stays in roles long, which says a lot apart from Burnley and Cheltenham, he rarely lasts any time.

Harry Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 I think this is the most likely appointment, sadly. For what it's worth, he'd probably do a half decent job in the short-term, but it won't be pretty. And you can be damn sure JET, Pack, Baldock, Bryan, Cunningham won't feature in his high tempo, high pressing, high ball game. This appointment will swing the club away from the long-term strategy it set in place only 12 months ago. Remember that at Forest, Cotterill took charge of 6 consecutive home defeats and 11 weeks of not scoring a goal at home. If you think the football under SOD has been lacking inspiration, you ain't seen nothing yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted November 29, 2013 Report Share Posted November 29, 2013 Harry, Cotterill signed Greg Cunningham on loan whilst he was at Forest and then tried to buy him permanently. True - I'll accept that one (I was gonna stop that sentence at Bryan, but had to go one step further, ha ha, silly me!!) However, I could argue that Keith Burt, being DOF at Forest at the time, actually signed Cunningham???!!! But I won't, and will accept my error.

Lew-T Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Even though he is favourite for the job, I can't see JL employing him. Otherwise all the talk of good football, transition, young hungry players, academy and scouting has gone out the window? What I get from SC, is that he's a hard working man who can grind results. He is not a long term future manager so that's why I think it's Tisdale. He has been around the south west for a while now, young manager, been at Exeter for years and has progressed slowy, but surely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin1988 Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Think the Clarets fan is getting a bit carried away due to their current position. Obviously you know far more about his tenure at Burnley than a Burnley fan, fair play. I've asked for more reasoning off him in the mean time.

glynriley Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Well that would take a few more numbers of the gate. Just need to look at our attendances in the past under hoof ball merchants. Correct, just look at Tuesday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-Robbo Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 4-5-1 football at home, 5-4-1 football away. Be tedious. Remember SOD was drafted in to save their arses when he was at Florist. So, no change from now then. Because no way does JET play as part of a strike pair.

Talk Of The Town Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 If hoof ball keeps us up then I'll be happy short term. We are heading for the 4th Division. Winning football is what we need, however that might be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDoubleD Posted November 30, 2013 Report Share Posted November 30, 2013 Thought when forest played us 2 years ago and we won 1-0 they looked good. Pace, width, got a lot from Andy Reid. They should of beaten us by 3 or 4. He got stitched up at notts county, and think he did ok at burnley. Helped build the team that coyle then took on.
