success being promotion with 2 years, and bringing through our own youngsters

At the moment,no.

Not really to do with Doug, more the fact that we can't put out a team capable of keeping clean sheets.

A manager is obviously a big part of any success or failure, but I still think if you don't have the players it's tough.

Really do want him to do well though and hope he does.

Fingers crossed.

He's closed the circus, so that's a good start for me!

Now he just needs to remove some of the clowns who are still hanging around.

I'd go along with that

 

I can see Doogie's plan and I can see it working

 

Just hope some of our fans give him time and don't hound him out. It's gonna take a few transfer windows to sort this mess out

Love Dougie. Next seasons gonna be brilliant! COYW!

This "hounding him out" is the biggest fucking nonsense and most annoying repetitive shite

 

Who was hounded out exactly????

Shall we start a Gillingham friday night roll call of the back of this? I'm in!

Megson was a shit cunt but he was never a chance by a lot of our supporters.

I should have said I hope the fans don't get on his back and give him time. A few people I have spoke to already want a change. Negativity breeds negativity, it didn't work under Megson, it didn't work under McCleish at villa etc

Megson was a shit cunt but he was never a chance by a lot of our supporters.

He was'nt interested in tring to get them onside either.

How many clowns do we still have? I assume its the big earners who nobody wants.

 

Whatever happened to the Fat Kitman?

Chelsea fans don't want Rafa

 

It's clearly their fault they lost at Newcastle

they're also fucking idiots.

 

As Ani said, Megson was a cunt, a massive cunt.

 

but

 

he was booed to the hills upon being introduced to the reebok crowd against Braga

 

they were also cunts

 

so them and megson can both go in the same category for me

 

cunts

 

it was fucking ridiculous

If they didn't boo him would megson have left us in a non-relegation spot?

if you want to go down that route, we might well still be playing premier league football

 

no one knows

 

no one is saying the booers have put us in our current position

 

they are part of the problem though, however big or small

 

you dont seriosuly think that booing has no effect whatsoever?

No

 

But I think Megson's "treatment" was negligible

 

He was sacked because he was shit

 

He wasn't hounded out by the fans

 

Its lazy bullshit

 

 

 

 

How many seasons did he manage at Palace?

Spot on

 

his name is shit at almost every club he has been at and you don't get clubs queing around the corner now that he is available

Freedman is wrong club, wrong time.

 

The table doesn't lie and he has made a poor start.

 

That said, we need stability and he talks a good un.

 

We badly need the talk to stop and the action to start.

 

The jury is still out for me but I really hope he succeeds.

Methods,ideas and ambition he ticks the boxes for me but results are what matters.Jury out for me but want him to succeed so we can stabalise.

DF seems to have a medium/long-term plan, and he might be successful with that. Time will tell.

 

Short-term he's not getting the current players to perform sufficiently to win enough games, though he's still got time to change that this season. I would definitely think that the club cannot afford this season to be written off in favour of longer-term if it meant relegation again ........ and we're dangerously close just now.

 

Jury out for me but obvbiously I want him to succeed..

Jury's out for me. I'll judge him on results and thus so far way off being convinced. love to be wrong tho'

I aint convinced one bit, and his philosphy doesn't inspire me to be so. He got lucky today, why does it take the side to go a goal down for Freedman to make a sub.

Fuck me - he can't win can he!

They scored in the 55th minute. You don't get many managers making subs that early in the second half unless they are losing.

He only makes substitutions when we go a goal behind, good fucking job burnley scored as early as they did.

listening to freedman post match, their goal didn't cause the subs

 

de ridder was always off after an hour

 

he also said they've watched burnley and know they slow down towards the end of the game so we hada plan to exploit that

 

did they or is he talking shite....who knows, but we won

 

i find folks finding fault with his subs today, a bit strange

 

unless they just like a moan
