I know a couple doing that, but I also know one who I honestly think JB could literally do anything and he would be still called some sort of saint. Can't stop hearing how he brings through all of these Prem players (one isn't it), how he is loved by many, and has such a high reputation amongst other coaches etc etc etc. As soon as he says anything that is controversial, or how good their fans are, how many tickets they could sell, anything about us, he goes up another notch and is near legend status now. Mind you he still says the Fruit Market is a done deal as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst thing is he has most our fans wrapped around his little finger. Funny thread awhile ago where a few were claiming they never had an issue with him then a poster went and found threads from his time at Fleetwood with said posters criticising Fleetwood for hiring him and what a nasty piece of work he was etc. He’s been given everything DC asked for and was denied. Publicly came out and said he had been given a big budget for this season but I’m not really sure what he’s done with it other than offer players new contacts then criticise them and want them out after one game. Mental. When he came in I’m sure him and NP were battling for the worse PPG record in the whole EFL. Surprised you lot have been so patient but I’m only looking in from the outside so may be more too it. To be fair to NP he took over a club in a hell of a mess and is still a year away from sorting it. Most fans understand that, and can see we have a way to go before we will be financially and structurally repaired thanks to previous employees. As for your mob and JB, every so often there’s a gobby git that lemmings will want to follow. It’s all transient though, both managers will move on, we’ll both have our catastrophes and our celebrations and still take the mickey as often as we can. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they could truly claim that there are thousands locked out and that their away support is even better than their home support! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
