  1. Does this enable anyone to revisit their" fit and proper" status? (Thought not..)
  2. ..or the Neville's house ..oh, wait
  3. Cholera typhoid analogy is perfect..Suhail and Gestede both have previous with Steve Kean....Hmmm
  4. 100%... I think the change works as a bit of a distraction...until excitement over the new signings turns into grim realisation..
  5. But in the context of all the Raya, Wharton, Szmodics money....
  6. So... . it's a) A strategic plan to get rid of all the defeatist culture and deadwood that has brought years of "bottling" and failure b) A cost cutting exercise with obvious benefits to their (partner) agents c) A purge of players and staff, who challenged the club's lack of ambition and bullying behaviour by under-qualified senior management
  7. Hmm...Starting to feel like we've been here before..... Gordon Greer, Hope Akpan, Tommy Hoban, Wes Brown, Derrick Williams, Chris Brown etc
  8. It works for the agents though.....and that is what seems to matter most!
  9. Unforgivable.....yet so many supporters continue to give them a pass. So depressing!
  10. 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.
  11. 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!"
  12. 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..
  13. 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.
  14. 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...
  15. It was TM, himself, who said that he told the owners he didn't want more money. I heard him say it!
  16. So, it's chants of "Snake" and "One greedy bastard", when they come for the anniversary game?
  17. 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...
  18. It's beginning to look like they didn't want to...
