Of persisting with Coyle

 

Shit in, shit out

 

Every week

 

Or can't we afford to ditch him?

Do people really think that eleven lads just pitch up on a Saturday afternoon for a game of footy?

 

the only one that appears to think that at the moment is Coyle

Ok if I am to be convinced Coyle is to go we need a serious list

 

Bruce - no ta

Curbs - won't come, won't move up north

Hughes - ha ha, no chance

Dowie - well he'd probably accept

O'Driscoll - as above

Lee Clark - we can't afford to pay any more compo

Peter Reid - Bolton at heart

Souness - wouldn't last a week if NB still has her pitchforks

 

Any more for anymore. Coyle for me still. End of day we have paid little on transfer fees and I expect we are paying championship wages to championship players with the exception of a few who are nearing end of careers.

Methinks you actually already know the answer to your own question.

Got to be someone to put the fear in them.

 

Souness innit.

Got to be someone to put the fear in them.

 

Souness innit.

 

 

Which means I'm going to have to fuck about getting my pitchforks out of storage!

Here are some stats after 14 games from two poor starts. Not as bad as now.

14 games and 11 points. You know the rest - great day out at Chelsea on last day!!

 

both them seasons had good runs of form in them and we stayed up on the last day

 

so all we need now is a better run of form than we had either of those two seasons

 

can't wait

and in both those seasons, we had more points than we have now.

 

if we do not beat villa on sat, i will be in the "shitting myself" camp.

Mick Wadsworth has just been sacked from Hartlepool, get him on the list.

 

I didnt see Kenny Jacket on the list either, he keeps getting a mention, the compo may be a problem mind.

What about a first democratic club managed by the fans? We could vote for team selection during the week on the website and do substitutions via a premium rate phone number. First substitution suggestion to reach 100 votes gets made. We could take it in turns to take training sessions each week too.

No Jacket Required.

Sounds good pal, im struggling over christmas but could blag a week off work in the run up to the DMB game in January if I could take that week? Could I bring Mick Wadsworth along with me for a few hints and tips?

I seem to be getting on quite well on football manager?

 

Maybe i'm worth a punt?

I have an outstanding record as a manager, whether it be under 14's, semi pro, 5 a side and the vet leagues.

 

 

Not known as the special one for nothing
