Yep about OTIB is about as predictable as you and your rants about GJ, like the one you felt the need to instigate in a post earlier today.

One thing that was clear during his whole tenure was his love for the team, he referred to it in most interviews. Probably helped towards his downfall though, too loyal perhaps. Crying shame how it turned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HLR Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 I bumped into Luke Ayling this afternoon. I asked if the lads had seen Steve today and he said that they'd said they had said goodbyes this morning. Apparently Cotts was "gutted" and "very upset". Luke gave exactly the same impression - really disappointed he's been given the boot it seemed. He also said he & the rest of the boys were very much still behind the gaffer. Fair play to Luke to be honest as he could quite easily have shunned my questions today, was true gent. Fair to say that many involved with bcfc are disappointed by departure of Steve. PS. I'm sure Luke won't mind me sharing this info as I'm sure he's well aware the fans want answers right now. Please no more rumours of bust ups etc etc. He's been a fantastic servant to the club, let's leave it there eh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However i know the players were very moved and upset by today to a man. training ground was very flat by all accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've not done anything in the public eye in months (18 to be precise), have just sacked a great manager who still had the players support (over the phone!!) when it was them that let him down, and seemingly they have no plan or clue about what they're doing. We all know it's SL still running things, but he's proven time and time again that, whilst he'll have his financially secure, he doesn't know what to do on the football side of things. The rest of the board are just puppets, and useless ones at that. Until they start proving otherwise, my opinion won't change. But somehow I doubt that's going to happen. What a flawed argument anyway. You reckon you'd have done a better job than Johnson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a common occurrence at virtually every football club. The player always loses out of course. Unless a manager actually physically attacked a player it would blow over almost immediately and be forgotten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And let's be honest, those of us who followed home and away last season will recite the names of that squad for the rest of our lives. Imagine how much more it would mean to you if you'd recruited and led them. Must be heartbreaking to be obliged to walk away, particularly if pushed.
