I got lynched on here for just hinting at it... Glad it’s all out in the open now and I hope something is sorted out! Was it a secret then? The clubs been a circus for ten years and there have been none more vociferous than me at times but to almost wish misery on us before a ball has been kicked in pre season is weird, if we do struggle or go down by all means let us know you predicted it but lets just see what transpires and allow the majority of us fans to just hope that something good could be round the corner.

One of my colleagues moaned because they took Mondeos off our car policy. Moaned and moaned for weeks suggesting it'll be Kia or Nissan. Two weeks later we signed a deal for BMW and Audi. Change + uncertainty = mistrust & negativity. Proven fact. The way i see it is there is a load of evidence pointing to the club being run terribly and zero evidence to the contrary. Do you think nothing Keegan and Gerrard are saying is true? (Not to mention what Shez said after leaving about interference) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolatic Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 No thank you to Steve Cotterill, Stephen Pressley, Robbie Nielsen, Paul Ince or Gary Megson. And don't even get me going on the possibility of Lee Clark, Darren Ferguson or Graham Westley. I'd be happy with Scholes, Rosler or Warburton. but I've a feeling it will either be Johnny Foreigner or somebody that no bugger on here will ever want.

maximus1267 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 We get relegated, most expect Wellens to go after a poor run of form and poor selections, .....He stays, lots unhappy at this !!! The DM story came out..... statement demanded..... statement put out...but not what people want to hear so a statement about the statement required !!! Wellens sacked...... so now something else is wrong.... statement required telling us every little fine detail cos we have a right as paying fans to know everything !!! Obviously AL is now the worst thing to happen to the club !!! So..... Scenario 1....Maybe this was the plan all along, maybe we might be happy with our new manager, maybe he will play to win, maybe we will enjoy next season, maybe we will be promoted, maybe its exciting times..... OR Scenario 2....This is a knee jerk reaction to DM story, maybe we might end up with a worse manager than Wellens, maybe we will be relegated again, maybe our attendances will be an all time low, maybe we will be the next Leyton Orient !!! I'll remain positive and hope for scenario 1 I know that is not acceptable to some of us to be too positive...... I'm not saying some of you want scenario 2 but it reads like some of you are always expecting the worst !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you on this, but can you imagine what would happen if Clark, Westley or Ferguson rocked up at BP. Yes, we'd give them our support (I hope) because it's our club, but this place would go into meltdown in seconds. I honestly expect some would pack it in until any of the above had been sacked. Time will tell and, at the moment, it's nothing more than pure speculation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleetwood Blue Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Gerrard is typing on twitter saying its been a shambles for the last 11 months, jesus id like to add 20 years to that...Is Abdallah the saviour?? Is he to interfering?? Everything went from bad to worse when he started bringing unknown foreigners in on big wages which definately upset the lads already here..Who in their right mind would touch our club when its common knowledge you dont get paid on time. We won one out of the last tem games so why wasnt Wellens sacked after the Northampton shambles, has the DM story and the leak from within the club been found? Has he applied for the Donny job and been found out? So many unanswered questions but isnt this just typical of us, 8 managers in the last 3 years and we all wonder why we’re in the bottom league..we are currrently a laughing stock and i really didnt want to believe Keegans story in that shite rag but there cant be any smoke without fire, us as fans will be there til the bitter end but its all getting boring now..

Obviously he’s a big disruption in any football dressing room at any decent club. I hope he is sacked as well and his contract terminated worthwith. We don’t need his sort of mental player at our club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that refers to Peter Clarke (I've not checked back to other posts), it probably makes sense for the owner and captain to have a chinwag about today's events.

Clifford Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Scholes wanted it last time, was gutted that Wellens' initial run meant he had to get the job. Expect it to be Scholes or a random overseas coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to me that the people who appoint managers are too quick to sack them just to cover up their error in appointing them. Im usually one of those optimists but on this one Im finding myself siding with the more pessimistic posters. While I always want to look for positives and things arent always as bad as they seem, Im not just going to bury my head in the sand and assume all is rosey when it clearly isn't. I can ofcourse be persuaded that things can get better should we appoint the right manager and sign the right players. Im not sure what the thinking would be if we went from Wellens to Clarke Im not sure Clarke is ready for management just yet. On Wellens himself I think this job came abit too early for him in the ideal world he would have spent this season learning the ropes as a coach under John Sheridan and Tommy Wright. Thats why I think Clarke needs to go off and spend a couple of years working as an assistant manager before becoming the number 1 somewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiler13 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I would not mind Ferguson at least he gets results and took Donny back up into division 1 . I realise it would be a controversial appointment for some on this forum to swallow but if he got us back out of division 1 at the first attempt then people might respect him more.
