Tyrone Shoelaces

It’s an extra blow him leaving on a free transfer.

All that the numerous candidates being interviewed tells me is - they haven’t got a clue. When we had a board that had their fingers on the pulse of the British football scene they identified the chosen candidate and then went out and got him. I would imagine then that the directors would have had a potential candidate or candidates in mind even when things were going well with the current manager. You never know when Sheffield Utd, Newcastle, Birmingham or Everton will come calling.

We’ve got Ayala !

Who is there to agree a new deal with ? Looks like he got tired of waiting as well.

He wouldn’t have been near the job but for the fact he was a ‘Boro lad.

Maybe 2 days.

They need to realise that you don’t have to score off every ball, or every over in test cricket. You can fill your boots when you’ve worn the bowlers down.

I keep telling you it’s there master plan. Piss everybody off so when they sell up there’ll be nobody left to protest.

Anybody else remember Brian Clough at Derby parading Ian Storey-Moore around the old Baseball Ground before a game only for Storey-Moore to sign for Man United over the weekend ?

Where’s David Steele when you need him ?

I haven’t watched any of it today. Were we batting with the bat handle again ?

Kiddo was working with Prem players in a Prem set up under one of the best managers that has ever been but he was clueless when he got here.

I can’t see Pogba getting in over Travis.

I just looked in my “ Wisden “ for 1962 Jim. The 1961 season Aussie tourists played Worcestershire ( the traditional opening game “ ) on April the 29th and May 1st and 2nd. They then played Derbyshire, Yorkshire, Lancashire, Surrey, Cambridge Uni, Glamorgan, Gloucestershire, The MCC, Oxford Uni, Sussex. All theoretically three day, two innings games. After that they played England in the first Test on June 8th. All the main batsmen had made hundreds by then, some had made two or more.

I’m an old tosser. I’ll do it for £1000 a week.

It’ll be somebody desperate to get a job, that’s for sure. Why else would you accept Lowe as your first team coach ?

Same at Bolton.

Since when ?

What other football club interviews the number of candidates that we are supposed to have interviewed ? All that tells me is they don’t know what they are doing. I’m expecting a repeat of the Coyle/Warnock fiasco.

I had the same problem. Luckily I had symptoms that led to an early diagnosis and successful treatment. Any man over 40 reading this - get the PSA test. It’s only a blood test but it could save your life. Once the cancer spreads from the prostrate your chances aren’t great.

In the 70’s we had Ken Furphy, Gordon Lee, Jim Smith, Howard Kendall - all so successful they were stolen away by First Division Clubs. Of course we had a board of directors that actually knew something about football then.

You’re looking down the wrong end of the telescope. The Chokers don’t do normal procedures. Their interview process is deliberately set up to eliminate all the good candidates until we’re left with the charlatan they want.

You missed out “ and crap “.

I was right in line with the header. It was going in right until it didn’t. How he missed that I’ll never know.

We’ll never thrive whilst they own the club. You can’t run a football club by remote control.
