  1. It works for the agents though.....and that is what seems to matter most!
  2. Unforgivable.....yet so many supporters continue to give them a pass. So depressing!
  3. As a pedant, I recall that Darling went to Norwich a while before Furphy arrived. From memory, we swapped him for Bryan Conlon. He was certainly in the team that went down to Division 3.
  4. Cue firing squad being issued with rifles..
  5. I can't disagree with the lack of class in people ditching the dirt in the "insta", Facebook culture... In a previous life, I took over a service, where were amid all the luvs, huns and various emojis, staff were all too busy marginalising managers and colleagues... As Ena Sharples might say, "Common!"
  6. I am hearing he was involved in a row about one of the two female employee(s), who have left/ been edged out... BUT this is only hearsay....I wouldn't say it in a court of law, but it is an informal message board..
  7. Aaaghhh..Just don't.....
  8. It is not just you. It is odd and very conflicted. For me, it's not unlike the psychology of a kidnapper's victims, who feel anxious, whenever their captor is absent. They come to rely on their captor for food, safety and warmth! I wish they would just go, but if they insist on staying, I want them to invest.
  9. No, I meant more than that. It was another interview altogether, when I heard him say the the owners (humble people etc!) wanted to throw a lot more money at it, but he, himself, actually blocked this and specifically advised them not to... I think this new business of TM wrapping it up as "sticking to his principles" is putting an all too fine gloss on something else..e.g. fear, lack of ambition, avoidance of pressure... Anyway, I don't think Big Sam bought it either...
  10. It was TM, himself, who said that he told the owners he didn't want more money. I heard him say it!
  11. So, it's chants of "Snake" and "One greedy bastard", when they come for the anniversary game?
  12. The old fresh start syndrome is a big issue in child protection, where practitioners fail to see repeated patterns of neglect and harm, as they merely buy into a dangerous optimism...
  13. It's beginning to look like they didn't want to...
  14. I could listen to him all day, talking about football...but I did get a belly-full of "Rovers fans, just want to see Shearer and Sutton banging in the goals again"...The old "entitled" card? I think we just wanted a normal club again...
  15. Funny, isn't it. There have been so many players I have loved... Eamonn Rogers, Billy Wilson, John McNamee, Kit Napier, Roger Jones, Howard Gayle, Bradley Dack, for instance........and household names, who, somehow, did not stir my emotions in the same way. Subjectivity....and I loved Trav. He seemed to represent something...
  16. Derby, who nearly went out of business very recently...
  17. "Their culture is respect"... Not for us fans!
  18. Beginning to sound pretty toxic. What will we hear next? Certain employees make an official complaint about RG or SP...then get ..we..er.."moved on"?
  19. Trav's statement was "read with feeling"?
  20. Well, it is a deliberately, sarcastic use of Gestede's word, which is heavy with the implication "my way or the highway"
  21. Well, it is a deliberately, sarcastic use of Gestede's word, which is heavy with the implication "my way or the highway"
  22. Hmm...I think there is a lot more to this than we know.. As well as "life changing money", I am also smelling a trail of bad feeling e.g...Gestede, Suhail, Eustace, Leslie Fielding's "redundancy" etc.. Looks like a clear out of all those, who challenged the new orthodoxy or were not "aligned"...
