sweetleftpeg 0 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 IMHO only other way we can show it is at games , be it singing , 20-40 banners , or chanting .......otherwise this campaign is always going to fail.It will always be a small group branded in the media and a small grp recognise by the club. 94022[/snapback] Aye, I agree. If the campaign that N-O has started had been done in moderation then I think it would have more of media backing which is what you need really. If the press take it seriously then they'll talk about it, which would bring on the momentum of more fans backing it and the club being under more pressure to approach him as he would truly be 'the fans choice.' However, the overkill has meant the local media aren't interested now which means little mention of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DONTOONER 0 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 It seems like its more likely to be O Neil as well because i heard Otto will wait till summer(not too sure the source accurate) O Neil has alot of potential to become a great manager and he will be in the right league learning from the some of the best... Would be delighted if he join us personally my 3rd choice behind Otto and Hiddink. I not one of those who jumped on the Hitzfeld wangon, i am a german fan and always watched him closely personally i think he would prefer the Germany appointment after the world cup because its going to be his last. either way i am on the winning end .....

Guest alex Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 I share JawD's view that the problem with it is the brainwashing aspect. One of the reasons I can't be arsed with the football board is that HTT is hero worshipped by some of the bairns over there and, in my opinion, it stifles debate, as it clearly has in this regard.

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 What is this board rivalry? To be honest I feel it's a myth created by HTT so he doesn't have to deal with the fact that some people don't like him. Most on here use both boards, and say that every time this subject is brought up. 94023[/snapback] I agree, I still check the site regularly for news and views, I just don't post anymore. Debates had a habit of turning into soopafan fights, so I went elsewhere. I started off GREAT as a bit of tounge in cheek as I thought HTT was looking for a Utopia message board that wasn't going to happen. He just needs to chill out a bit, he's built a canny website, but a message board is always going to have WUMs and people out on fishing trips. That's life.

adios 717 Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 So you don't think people are doing this campaign because it's the popular thing to do? 94061[/snapback] I would love to hear how many times the key campaigners have seen a Hitzfeld team play. He sounds good to me, but I don't know enough about him. Unfortunately the campaign hasn't taught me anything as it's propaganda. I would to have loved to have seen a campaign that put up the three top candidates, objectively, and gave us the pros and cons of each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
