Guest BeNeRz Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 You Start by slagging off our chairman.. nice What other choice has he made that was bad? I bet 90% of people wanted Brian Tinnion here in the first place.. but then go back on what they have said and say SL made a bad desision..

Andy082005 Posted September 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 How have I slagged him off there? just by calling him Steve Clownsdown, if I was going to slag him off I would do a lot worse than that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BeNeRz Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 To be honest..Not many people are going to admit it..

Hodges17 Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Not for the right reasons though. not because he had any managerial expertise or experience, but because he's City through and through. I'm sure your chairman will be wise enough not to make a managerial appointment on that basis ever again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy082005 Posted September 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 EDIT:Give me one Reason why←off the top of my head1, We spend £2m a year on the acadamy, then sell all our hottest prospects for £1.7m?????? Glad to know our "amazing academy is benefiting some clubs, even if its not our own2, The Tinnion appointment...........enough said3, Not getting rid of Tinnion after the Luton game, allowing him to stay on, buy the players he did then watch him leave after 6 weeks. We knew it would happen, now the new manager is stuck with players he may not want4, He refuses to even listen to the fans opinions. Before you say anything, it could work, look at Luton5, Liam "what registration form" Rosenior, now an England U21, you want more...........

Maybe if we were prepared to give him 3 years it would have been Ok, but were a club who after two near misses with an EXPERIENCED manager, turned to someone with no experience at all to get us out of this league.It was the cheap option, anyone who says different is kidding themselves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to know our "amazing academy is benefiting some clubs, even if its not our ownIts brought players through.. and as a club in league one we not going to sell each player for more than 1million!Matt Hill had a get out clause..Coles Wanted to leave..Doherty and Tinnion Didnt get on so he had to leave 2, The Tinnion appointment...........enough said I player at the club who was a complete legend.. its worked with other clubs so why not give it a try?3, Not getting rid of Tinnion after the Luton game, allowing him to stay on, buy the players he did then watch him leave after 6 weeks. We knew it would happen, now the new manager is stuck with players he may not wantEvery Team that loses 5-0 has to sack there manger? I recall Everton losing 7-0 to arsenal there manger stayed!4, He refuses to even listen to the fans opinions. Before you say anything, it could work, look at Luton For the Fact lutons fans choice wasnt Newell, He was second on the poll 5, Liam "what registration form" Rosenior, now an England U21, Liam didnt want to stay at city.. and yes it was a mistake..

I know Danny, yes he wanted to reach a higher level, but he wanted to do it with City. He may have had a discipline problem, but he was still one of our BEST defenders and hottest prospects2, Difference between Tinnion and Moyes was, Evertons was a one off, they still exceeded all expectations and came 4th. Citys drubbing at Luton, you could see coming a mile off....as was the Swansea massacre3, Tinnion, yeah he was a legend, doesnt mean he is the right man for the job.
