    Sadly so do I thin end of the wedge this    And he can fuck off with this “keep putting my neck on the line”, like he’s doing us a favour. I must’ve missed it when He turned down Madrid an

  • We should be applauding the 2000 plus who are parting with their hard earned not criticising the support. Might even end up nearer 3k you never know.  Its just after Christmas, its £22(thats dear

  • Read Hills comments and while he may be taking some of the social media muppets to heart hes basically right. There was one mon on after Burton saying we should be beating these at home! Not any more

I’m not sure WTF he is referring to, the fans were superb AGAIN yesterday. 

To be fair he does so that on the other video. 
 

how about......

’ we did ok today, new lads settled in well other players did the job, couple of bits of luck went against us. We know we are up against it, but that support today and with FV onboard we are going to get this sorted. No quick fix but stick together and eventually we will.’

Yep it’s not rocket science is it. His job is to manage the team but also to keep the club together that’s squad, owners, fans and staff, we need to heal and this hasn’t helped.

This announcement

Speculation or has something been said?

As far as I can tell, it's just one tweet from one person on twitter. I think it's probably best ignored.

That person got initials AR by any chance ? 
 

he is a real knobhead. 😁

Iles piece on the Rochdale game plus his analysis of Hills comments quite balanced .One of his better efforts hits the right note I think.

Ive listened to both interviews

Nothing in there for this fan to take offence over

The point that i get from the rant is hes pissed off with sniping, from within and without

Id guess within is footballing folk like Lee

Press, probably broaden to media and as ive seen nowt from iles for him to be pissed off about, i think who could he mean

Whats McGinlay had to say?

This. 
 

Ive listened to both and was thinking my hearing had gone or I’d missed some of it. 
 

Possible Chinese whispers with some getting their knickers in a twist?

Amazing how much better his journalism is when he’s not spending his nights being anti ken and pro Parkinson

Considering our quickly his report was turned round, post Hill's comments which became the main story but still had to play 2nd fiddle to some sort of match report, that's a brilliant piece by Iles.  I get the impression some people think he's stealing a living (its always puzzled me) but articles written post match like that remind us he's a qualified journalist.

* how quickly

I heard there was some news coming out of the club today. That dude on twitter as well.

Obviously horse crap.

Might still come out on Monday. 

I know you're not a fan of facts but there's always a couple of interviews

A club one and presumably the other is a press conf style for everybody else (The one that goes put on the radio)

There's really nothing going on here other than he's either calmed down or he's been wound up

Depends which order they were done

I'd expect radio would be first

For some reason he reminds me of Stanley Unwin when he talks.

Hill did 2 interviews, why?

Because he fucked up on the first interview, he needed a spade.

My guess is that FV made him do a 2nd interview and  Chino fake Guardiola Keith changed tact. That to me suggest chino Keith is on borrowed time.

I reckon Shazza has a 10 year plan and it doesn't involve Keith.

Thought he was a scruffy arteta 

Does anyone know for certain that he was MADE to do a second interview or two interviews is the norm or is someone assuming it to be the case?

Two interviews is the absolute norm. 

Iles confirms radio first then club;

“It was noticeable that his demeanour changed entirely by the time he faced the club’s cameras a few minutes later, so perhaps it had a cathartic effect?“

Like the way he ends the article too;

“No team has ever clawed back the kind of deficit that the Whites are facing in League One. There is a good reason they called it the ‘Impossible Dream’ and not the 'Easily-achievable one'. So if the next four months are about laying foundations for next season, then so be it.

Now is not the time for drama. We have had plenty enough of that at Bolton Wanderers.”

I agree with above sentiments it’s a very good balanced view from Mr Iles. Link to full report if you want

Lets hope this blows over and Hill wised up as we can ill afford any more disruption.

But as a member of the travelling support, even if we are now getting used to the idea that relegation is inevitable, I think we'd actually like our team at least try to compete.

If that's the case, I don't see Roger's, Klopp, Pearson, Guardiola et al giving 2 interviews and changing tact. Hill did, and you have to ask why. 

They’re not managing a basket case club in league 1. 

it’s like saying you don’t get why Lewis Hamilton doesn’t have furry dice and them bible basher fish on their car cos Bernard the local cabbie does

Just now, Mr Grey said:

I get that emotions run high straight after the game, but imo Hill fucked up big time. 

2 different interviews, somewhere inbetween someone has had a word in his lug hole.

Right, are you going to forgive him for this or are you going painting a bed sheet?

Got their trains off virgin and just painted them a different colour on the outside
