Aizoon Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 After a disastrous three points from two away games, he's offered his resignation and this has been accepted. It is expected that he will be replaced by Havanatopia, an experienced thread starter whose record speaks for itself. When interviewed, Aizoon said "I blame the referee, the weather and the pitch, although not necessarily in that order. I am obviously disappointed, but wish the new thread starter all the best in this difficult role. Pleasing those miserable buggers on OTIB is like herding cats. Don't print that last bit, will you?" Assistant thread starter, Horace, has also resigned. He was unavailable for comment this morning, but has been heard muttering darkly about "badgers under the bed" and "insectivorophobia".

handsofclay Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 The writing was on the wall. For the Huddersfield match Aizoon wrote a 277 word intro. By the time of the Derby game just a few days later, he could only muster 176. His heart clearly wasn't in the job. Not only did this lack of effort impact on the performance of the players but there was the very real possibility that if this couldn't be arsed attitude continued further with even fewer words used per match intro that by the time of the QPR encounter at Loftus Road Aizoon's pathetic introduction would simply have read: Queens Park Rangers aka QPR. Obviously thiscouldn't be allowed to continue and Aizoon has done the right thing and fallen on his sword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDOXO Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 I would like to thank Aizoon (and Horace) for his, albeit short lived, services to match day thread starting and wish him well in his future career as a Cat Herder!! Welcome back Havanatopia for your second stint. We all hope it will be as successful as Joe Jordan's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I blame the lack of activity in the summer. Everyone knows you can't rely on just one hedgehog, especially as it's a certainty that he will hibernate through he winter. Stepping up to Havantopia's level was always going to be a big ask as competitors can offer bigger bowls of bread and milk and worms than we can. It's no good building a really big and impressive pile of leaves if it won't be filled cause Aizoon can't compete. It gives me no pleasure to say we have to bring back Havanatopia- before it's too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marina's Rolls Royce Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 Am I alone in thinking that Aizoon should be given one more thread? You don't become a poor poster after two dodgy threads and look at his record last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reddogkev Posted December 17, 2015 Report Share Posted December 17, 2015 I've often wondered, and now seems the right time to ask, what does Aizoon actually mean? Is it part of your name, or something far more mysterious? If it something obvious to a lot of people, then I apologise for my lack of knowledge on the subject of Aizoon!
