  1. Will that stop the chanting like? At least until he lost a game. Seriously though, the crowd chanting the number 2's name would undermine the manager quite a bit if you ask me.
  2. And take Terry Mac with you! Seriously, WHERE does Terry Mac hide every time there are sackings?? At this rate I'm going to have to carry him away myself. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terry_McDermott
  3. Houllier in charge but the crowd chanting "Shearer, Shearer" all game I don't like the sound of that. Just get Gerard and his pacemaker in and that'll do for me.
  4. Obviously too much time on his hands while the strike is on. The Rules of Attraction was shite, but I reckon Pulp Fiction was a cut above anything else Tarantino has done, thanks to the contribution Avary made.
  5. Being away is a valid excuse. Out of 7 season ticket holders who go together regular, I've only been able to get 1 maybe from the rest of them. I might actually turn up in the Trent Though there'd be no-one in there.

  7. From .com Anyone going to let the lads down tomorrow night?
  8. Transfer Window halfway report... http://www.4thegame.com/features/feature/2...day_by_day.html We want to get out arse in gear.
  9. His team plays like he did. 99% functionality with the odd spark of genius.
  10. Time for a change for Luis... http://www.goal.com/en/Articolo.aspx?ContenutoId=546079
  11. Management teams never work. One has to be the boss, and I can imagine both have an ego that would demand they were top dog.
  12. Are there any examples of this? Isn't the academy still supposed to be a shambles? Who says that all the work at improving the infrastructure of the club (refurbishing buildings, better medical department, sports science etc.) will definitely be scrapped under a new manager? To be fair, the injury table does show a vast improvement on the last few years.... http://www.physioroom.com/news/english_pre...njury_table.php It's just a shame the fit players play like they're injured. It's also a further indictment of Sam's ability that he was doing worse than Souness or Allardyce with none of the injury woes.
  13. Not quite. It was within 12 months, I think. Aye, he'd have to win the waffa to get in the super cup D'oh. At this moment in time i'd time 5 trophies in 50 years. So this lad isn't a bad bet IMO Of course Souness had won trophies up the ying yang too. I'm far more interested in a candidates compatibility with the club, the chairman, the press and the fans than what they've managed at other clubs under completely different circumstances.

  15. Was he fuck forced. Fucking hell man. I never said he was.
  16. It's embarrassing in a full office when someone asks what you're listening to and the response is Boyz Noize.
  17. I was mortified (fnarr) the first time I saw that and I agree 100% with Dan. Whether he wants to be a fan or not, he has to realise he cannot be a fan in that sense. It would be prejudicial to everyone's interests as we need his business head on and nowt else. Hopefully that period will come to an end now as he's going to be forced to knuckle down on the managerial appointment. From that point on, everything at the club will have his hallmark (Jesus can't avoid the Chairman references we've had so many) and he'll be accountable for everything that happens, success or failure. Hopefully he's already seen that and has remembered that his business successes are associated with him wearing a suit. He's standing with the fans at the odd away game because when he felt forced to at the Sunderland game he enjoyed it, and he wants to keep enjoying it. I see nothing wrong with it.
  18. I only think he hasn't spent millions because Allardyce hasn't asked for it. I think he was a naturally frugal manager. As he says he's certainly spent massively elsewhere on the slub. I do wonder if he would have went for Anelka, and if we would have laid out for him. I thought he'd wanted to spend bigger in the summer but been refused. Which I could understand actually. Sticking with Allardyce was like pulling at 2AM. You'll take her home and that, see how it goes, but you're not going to go bare back. The long term cost could be through the roof.
  19. Spot on tbh, and a few on here say they have not put a foot wrong? I've said they've got stuff wrong, but just because this is the first high profile bit of business they've done, doesn't mean it's the first major bit of business. There were web pages dedicated to the financial mis-management of the place, so they should get credit for sorting that mess out within a matter of months. A major bit of business that puts the club on a vastly improved footing at the roots.
  20. Your memory really is shite isn't it.
  21. He left Bolton ages before the Toon job was even touted.
