Stevie_J Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Just had time to watch the Press Briefing on LP. My god that is the most tinpot, unprofessional thing I've seen. The owner pissing about on his phone and putting it away like a school kid being told off as the other 3 clowns walk in, Barry Blatter sat there with his :censored:ing arms folded looking like a bulldog chewing a wasp and - although I like that it is short and sweet - it's the unveiling of our new manager and you can tell the club just wanted to get it out of the way quickly as they're embarrassed themselves by their idiotic appointment. I thought exactly the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie_J Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Few bits from the presser suggested not a clue. Neil Joys ref to "answering questions on football related matters." suggests the political element was know and concern. The chaps and ladies is just Barry but needed avoiding when people looking in.... Sort of stuff outsiders jump on irrespective of support. A broadcast where questions are inaudible by addition of an omnidirectional microphone from Maplins over road sorted. Some noise like a 1960s projector? What is it. Simon sat at desk as security contingent escort in Kelly and Joy??? Why was Barry on the top table. No disrespect intended but not needed. Fiddling with phones etc.... nervous... Kelly handled it very well in fairness....but the "prove people wrong" from SC also not needed. It sounded as appointed a while back from ref to Holden working behind scenes for a few weeks after his appointment. Could have heard it wrong. It was the usual siege mentality, basically.

HarryBosch Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 SC seems a bit worn down with it all to me. Understandable if he's been as thorough as he tells us & thought he was making a great, bold appointment only for the reaction to be even more extreme than last time. Then again, maybe they were all just rough as :censored: from the previous evenings awards do. I still am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsslatic Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 No sympathy. He either knew what was coming or to quote Mr Pearson, is an ostrich. Same with Evans. The passive aggressive 'I'll give you a refund in person' doesn't endear either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This appointment, Chaddy End, nothing done with season ticket prices - all a big :censored: you to the supporters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
