I was meaning in matches where someone goes off injured, instead of just replacing them with a similar player, he'll swap it all around. He'll stick Giles on the other side and someone less suited where Giles was. Then the next match comes along and Giles on the other side is the new normal.

Because it all began with Kean and co. I don't know how you missed that, it was quite possibly one of the most well documented and most despicable things ever to happen to the club. Just google Ruben Rochina.

Bizarre decision to take your fullback off and replace him with a CB - especially a CB that wasn't playing particularly well.

The big difference for me is we had a few players out so TM decided to completely fuck with the team rather than just swap like for like and bring in some cover for BBD. Then he forgot what made them successful in the first place. He did pretty much the same last season. His persistence in playing Gallagher means that most of the time we're playing with ten men.

At the time Kean could have stayed as long as he wanted.

I'll make a prediction that he'll get a 1 year rolling contract.

Yeah, some are being daft. Kean was the lowest of the low. It was a living nightmare and I hope I don't ever witness anything like it. I was just having a chat about this myth that we had loads of debt before Venkys turned up. £21m was the debt. Kean and friends weasled their way in and in 2020 it hit £156m. Someone did well.

Nah, he's done this in almost every season at every club he's been a manager.

He's been getting some flak recently for being direct. While I'd prefer someone with experience of Championship promotion I'd swap him for Mowbray in a heartbeat. https://www.bucksfreepress.co.uk/sport/20073208.gareth-ainsworth-criticises-lazy-analysis-wycombes-tactics/

"Dumbing down" for life in the championship?

What a journey.

“We can build on the success of last year…” I’m guessing he’ll omit to mention we will need to buy half a squad in order to avoid a relegation scrap, never mind promotion.

We’ve been over this before but there’s no way that anyone but vultures would take the club in its present state. Promotion to the PL may have attracted better.

I was talking about the rumoured pre-contract he’s signed elsewhere.

He does give a shit, but only to deflect any inadequacy in himself as he's thinking of the next place he'll steal a living from.

I think it's more likely that they are just clueless and getting twitchy about losing the Premier League cash.

To be fair to them I want to fucking leave while he's in charge.

The obvious thing would be to offer Farke a decent contract right now but we won't.

Which is apt because it's about this time in the season when he becomes rooted to his seat looking like someone shit in his cereal.

I'd like to remind everyone that we were all saying the same things this time last season. Literally Groundhog Tony.

He always talks like he's doing everyone a favour and he's just visiting. "I'm not really interested." "We'll end up where we end up." "they’re on the floor at the moment and we’ll have to pick up them up in the next few games and we have to perform better." They? Reading between the lines that's an almighty deflection from his own lack of acumen. What about you Tony? Could someone pick you up and give you a shake to make you see sense? It seems no one at the club has the power to do so.

And now?

They’ll be back from their cave on Monday, resurrected.

If we're making wishes then please let them sign up Steve Kean. Plenty of PL experience.

I'd like us to sign a manager who plays with a striker up front, wingers out wide, defenders defending and midfielders midfielding. And signs players to strengthen the club not nurture some strange prodigal delusion. Is that too much to ask?
