BP1960 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I didn't want him back. Changed my mind. Still feel bad for Robbo. Needs new players though. We were up for it against port vale the effort was there so needs to find someone to create/score. Think McKay with someone like Holloway would work. McKay has that same graft that Main did. I think the most like Main is Erwin, both tended to drift to the left wing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 He did have a 2 and half year deal last time as well... Ah, so we might get a fee for him again next July? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flemboy Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I amm over the moon with Shez coming back and the vast majority of fans back him.Thank god Robinson has gone.He was by far one of the worst so called managers we ever had.I cant wish him well.Pity we are left with a bunch of dregs but I feel Shez can get the best from them If he cant then no one can and :censored: em off and let the ones he can improve themselves stay andcarry on with some new signings. Our sorry state at rock bottom is amplfied having played the most boring football since the Penney era.Corney has to take some of the blame for being gullable to take on these last bunch of tosspots,Shez excluded. I am not saying Shez can work miracles again but it has renewed my faith in him doing his best for us and I will still support him even if we go down .since he has a huge task ahead of him we all must rally round and that includes the ones who did not want him back which are in the vast minority.

PlayItLivo Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 4 mins into that press conference, and a lot of bull:censored: it so far "I got a really good offer" "Money has never motivated me" "Oldham did well out of me leaving" "Didn't think I could take the club any further, didn't want to spoil the achievement of staying up" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kowenicki Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I was anti-Shez returning. It took about 12 seconds of that press conference for me to change my mind. Tomorrow won't be a chore for the first time in ages. Me too if I'm honest... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bit I noticed most in the interview (and the same as last year) is him saying just need to instill confidence and belief in the players. Both Dunn and Robinson were talking to the press about getting rid of players (rightly or wrongly) and as a result the performances got worse.

adamoafc Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I have watched it 4 times now and really wouldn't get bored of watching it again. He talks sense and is no nonsense which I love about him. He will get us playing. Looking forward to tomorrow for the first time in a number of months.

Nah, there's reasons he's afraid to mention, which is fine, but he blatantly contradicts himself by saying he got a really good offer and then a minute later says "I've never been motivated by money". It's all spin, and there's more to it that he doesn't want to say, but he comes off really uncomfortable as he generally does in front of camera. All he really needs to say is that it he got an opportunity which he felt was right for him and his family and leave it at that, but he's stuttering about trying to justify himself, attempting to make his reasons look transparent and honest, but he does inadvertantly come across as being full of :censored:. Still glad he's back though. Edited January 13, 2017 by PlayItLivo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only if you take "really good offer" to solely refer to how much they were paying him... In the context of him saying he thought it would have been difficult to do well had he stayed here I took it that "really good offer" also have meant he might have been attracted by his transfer budget, their facilities maybe, maybe they have a good youth setup, length of contract, target he was given, car?, digs?, other perks.... who knows? Could mean allsorts... Edited January 13, 2017 by HarryBosch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nonaenever Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I can't blame him for going but don't really understand why he'd want to come back... Hopefully because the club realised it was a mistake not to have backed him last year (i.e. on issues around the playing front) - everything has now been squared on that front and assurances made - and he's signed up happy for 2 and a half years (and stated he deffo won't be going anywhere else). Sounds very much like a good reconciliation and the most positive news for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deyres42 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I didn't get that impression. No doubt he was offered more money but I thought he meant that the more important reason was that Oldham wouldn't support him in the players he wanted and he didn't want a season of struggle and Notts County was the better option. I can't blame him for going but don't really understand why he'd want to come back... We are a good job for somebody if they can get it going, he knows this more than most because he's done it once before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryBosch Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Baraclough has remained, are you happy about that? Rumour has it Robbo said he'd forego his payoff in order for Barraclough & Nash to keep their jobs.... Makes no sense to me but it's apparently true. I'd rather Shez got Shirtliff back....

Stevie_J Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I think the most like Main is Erwin, both tended to drift to the left wing. Main makes a proper nuisance of himself. I reckon any defender would much rather play against Erwin than Main. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Erwin should be nowhere near a blue shirt, he had plenty of opportunity to prove himself at our level and failed miserably, be happy if we managed to bring in Main and Holloway with Osei and McKay as back up.

But why finance someone who's he's never worked with and been involved in our downfall ? Didn't take a much respected and out of work Peter Shirtliff to Notts County with him did he? Seems more to this than meets the eye. Edited January 13, 2017 by BP1960 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
