Bollocks!

Today's result was firmly down to our manager and his players, as it is every week. So much improved from last Saturday and so it should be.

Meanwhile, in the boardroom... nothing's changed!

Were any directors/owners present today?

I couldn't see from the Berlin Wall.

I couldn't see from the Omega either.

I was trying to look from Berlin Wall too but bloody sun was in my eyes.

Area did look sparsely populated though.

...as did Block E. Hopefully the floaters will return if we can keep the momentum going...

Yes.

They were all here today, as they were having a short board meeting at lunchtime.

When you say all , were the two main men amongst the number.

Or do we take CC's rumour in the other thread as fact??

Never take anything CC says as fsct

..and if we're happy to go off the evidence of this match..bollocks to anyone who criticiseJim or the players, motivation or anything else..

Or, to look at it another way..after this win against top of league we should sack Jim for not getting results like that every week.

You have to ask why can't they perform like that every week? OK, players have an off day but all on the same day?

Though I shouldn't comment as I decided to have an "off" day myself and stay at home

Was he the one walking round with a collection bucket?

If a team is made up of ''lesser', players, they will lose more than they win, the manager will sometimes motivate them and sometimes not, if they are ''up for it'' and get a break or two off the ref, they win, but in the main, they are what they are, and will finish according to their ability over a season.

If CC managed man city, they would finish in the top six, and if Arsene Wenger managed Hull, they eould probably still go down.

where do Champions Leicester City come into this theory with lesser players?

Nay Lad, excuses ..

The Leicester squad was actually a well constructed one that cost around 60 million , far from the chickenfeed that will become popular myth, pearson ''bought well'', and the same squad members would sell for lots more in spite of their league position this term.

How many players has Jim ever actually ''bought'', I strongly suspect not enough to form a 5 a side team.

there still lesser players compared to the rest in that division.

Huth) was released by Chelsea Middlesborough being told he's past it at top level, then got another chance

Simpson & Drinkwater) both shown the door by Man United

Morgan) a championship player who wasn't always first choice at Forrest.



point being , no different in comparison to us in L2, with us signing rejects, it's about 11 players not expecting to win every match but showing a competitive attitude when on the pitch

Aye..and you could probably get similar odds on us doing what Leicester did. Burnley would be a better one to look at..but even they have a solid board and some money to spend.

Most successful clubs have a Chairman who has a good relationship with the team manager.

Sammy Mac and Jim Bentley had good relationships with PMG.

Jim may well have a good relationship with Diego , lets hope he does !

It would appear that no one really has any kind of relationship with Diego
