Harry is a football enthusiast and has an incredible knowledge of the game. For once, due to my links to Oldham (the town, not the club) , I can vouch that his post is extremely accurate. Not sure how either comment could be read as plain disrespectful. It was a great post by the OP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchay Red Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 Oh the irony. SC's main detractors saying that not liking someone doesn't make them a bad manager. As far as LJ goes, I would be as under whelmed as I was with the appointments of McInnes and then O'Driscoll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nebristolred Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 Great post on LJ, and I'm not doubting his managerial talent, but in the situation we are in, should we really be taking a punt on him? Cheap signings and unknown recruits are a trademark of his Dad's and I dare say it could be a similar case i.e. that they are both very, very successful in Leagues One and Two but not necessarily a division above. We are not in a situation where we need to be rebuilding every season. We're in a position where we need to be spending money wisely, as Southampton did a few years back. We have the right attitude (players under 24, etc) but is LJ really the man to fit this criteria? Particularly when we sacked Steve Cotterill in our mission to reach the Premier League. Is LJ really the guy to take us there? Not yet imo. Let another club take that punt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Newcastle have made some desperate appointments as manager but do you really think Paul Dalglish was in charge at some point to follow in the footsteps of his pops Ken?!

screech Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 I hope that he isn't appointed to be honest, not because I think he wont do an excellent job coaching the side, it's because of those loud shouty morons that we have that would never give him a chance before he even got to the dugout.

Given that a manager appointment is the most important thing a club can do, there's bound to be a thread on every rumour bookies favourite etc. Not sure how thats pathetic. Personally its good to see that so many fans have a view and a lot have done a lot of digging on respective candidates and then pass this on. Johnson being a case in point.
