Park Life

Is it a done deal Tom?

Must see.

Bassong only on 5k a week. Stunning season for us.

7th.

7th Stop it. I wish you fucking would. All this grief over one thread. I'm going to military grade predictions. One a day. Dont go changing Parky, absurd and outlandish claims are the backbone of any decent forum. Fo sho. Stupid predictions are where its at man, one FA cup final me and my mate did a spread bet called 'Spitting Image' where you had to predict how many times a player was caught spitting on camera. I dont recall the outcome. Another one was called "U-Boats!" for an international game - how many german subs would there be in the match.

7th Stop it. I wish you fucking would. All this grief over one thread. I'm going to military grade predictions. One a day. Benitez and the fat lady singing, we have a good chance of finishing above Arsenal etc All legendary threads from the hands of the master.

7th Stop it. I wish you fucking would. All this grief over one thread. In your dreams. It's the numerous predictions before and since too. It's a curse. Didn't know I had such power. You don't. You just talk out your arse. Zip it baldy.

Bit pathetic picking him up on his attire is it not? Not really. How much is a tie to wear in front of the nations media? Very true. This is the last straw, getting us relegated was one thing but not wearing a tie!! Next you will be telling me the crease in his trousers was slightly off centre. Tom is anal.

Please, make never ever a prediction again. Danke schön! Shearer won't stay on. Better.

Shearer will stay on.

Couple have mentioned it, if anything was ever done Must be something somewhere though, as we always seem to be top or there abouts in the Premiership injury table (although not next season obviously ). It was too hard wasn't it. It has been re-done iirc. The inj prob is to do with dodgy transfers imho.

Would be lovely.

And that's exactly my point. We pissed a lot of it up the wall without laying enough foundations on the playing front. We also made some staggeringly bad decisions on managers. When there's a revolving door policy on managers it makes everything much worse, as each new man rips it up and starts again. That's still not an argument for a DoF by the way Say after 4/5 years or however long, wouldn't it make sense to retain Shearer as a dir?

It helps to have a manager you don't have to sack after they've blown your wad on their shite players. We've ripped it up and started again half a dozen times since the stability of SBR Of course by default that is a case for a DOF. Or not fucking up in appointing a manager. Again and again and again. Again, even with a goodish manager and had we still been in the PL we were probably about 8th choice for a player in this league and about 30th choice for a player if clubs of similar standing in Euro are taken into account. Yes, but Rome wasn't built in a day. Unless you're Chelsea. What's wrong with stability and steady improvement? We've had the whole of the PL time to build Rome. Mate, we're not talking about the same thing. Imagine the money was there to build Rome, but the architects held wild orgies and feasts, built themselves some big mansions and spunked the rest away on shoddy building materials, lean to's and gimmicky pre-fabs. Then when the money was gone they sodded off and left everyone to it. It might take the new blokes a bit longer to build Rome properly unless they're Roman sodding Abramovich, innit That cycle happens at almost every club. How did they get through it? Not sure what to make of such a massive generalisation. But the point is, it's happened to us now, at a time when ourselves and others simply can't spend our way out of it, because the money isn't there. So as an overall strategy we either have to take the Everton route to success, or find a real sugar daddy. Whichever way we go, doesn't mean the fundamentals of the club don't need to be sound, and that won't change overnight if you're starting from a low base.

In all honesty maybe we didn't need it with the likes of Keegan, Daglish and Robson, they probably were scouting networks on their own to a degree. But the lack of youth development (local and imported) and scouting is plain ridiculous (it's not like Fergy or Wenger is personally searching out young players he likes the look of). And stability.... how much different would things be looking now in just that context if Keegan had stayed. Which is the one good thing at the moment if the Shearer rumours are true, 4 year contract. Of course that assumes he isn't sacked (or isn't just rubbish). I agee, the lack of scouting has aggravated the bad buy huge wage cycle. Aye, you'd have to hope that this is something Shearer will sort out, he certainly talks the talk in those sort of respects (and doesn't seem afraid to get people in that know more than him in whatever aspect - which may be the sign of a good manager ). It's not just about Shearer. Stuff needs to be put in place that will be there for 20 years.

It helps to have a manager you don't have to sack after they've blown your wad on their shite players. We've ripped it up and started again half a dozen times since the stability of SBR Aye we wouldn't have been relegated with a decent manager that was actually in charge (and not being undermined by Wise et al) that had a bit to spend (or at least could spend what he sold) this season. We'd still have been in the danger zone with wages, but with a non-relegation Premiership finish we should have been able to move on. We're always going to have to pay more because we're not in London (or near it) and not Manchester Utd or Liverpool, but the trick is not paying loads for rubbish (which is what we've become - a place that pays well for other peoples out of date crap). Although again presently the issue is going to be surviving the wage bill in the Championship, until that's sorted little else matters. But this has been endemic and not the fault of one or other regime is my point. Rubbish. It's the fault of both Shepherd/the Halls and the current regime. Enedemic in the sense there is no easy way round it. That's different to saying people aren't to blame. The people we find it so easy to blame aren't football people and often with other businesses. It isn't really their fault as such, only in the sense that they didn't hire good advisors.
