  1. Funnily enough, I've dealt with a La-a in a previous job, can't be many of them around? Tilesmach dekarpet was a personal favourite.
  2. Completely random one... but listening to Brooke Vincent talking on the radio the last few journeys home.... I never knew former loanee Kean Bryan's first name was pronounced Kee-ann (as in Leanne)... Told you it was a random one.
  3. Agree with this. Pedigree as a preference but if it's anyone that's new to management then Thompson til the end of the season then reassess.
  4. Have you seen some of the shit going on there... Fighting over who owns what, banning orders left right and centre, protests (all sounds a bit familiar) and leaked text messages from the owner with derogatory comments on the fans and basically saying he'll take the club under!
  5. What's the deal with Harry Vaughan this season? Has he been suffering with injuries? Out of 8 games, he's: Started 1 Come off the bench late on in 2 An unused in 2 Not been in the squad for 3.
  6. Already posted I think but Redfearn has been championing Thompson on twitter...
  7. Cheltenham looking for a new manager.... some selected odds from their betting market: Graham Coughlan (Newport) & Steve Cotterill 5/4 jf Stephen Clemence 6/1 Darrell Clarke & Danny Cowley 14/1 Pete Wild, Mike Williamson & Micky Mellon all 25/1
  8. "The club can confirm that Steve Thompson will take interim charge of first-team matters while a recruitment process is conducted." Would have thought any "recruitment process" would take longer than a couple of days? I'd be surprised if they already had someone lined up already (which, if Clemence, must surely have already been in place?) the way Frank had been so defensive of Unsworth.
  9. I think we should all stick a couple of quid on so he drops to favourite... just to shit @Lee Sinnott up.
  10. Thats about where I'm at with it. When Mellon was mentioned yesterday I was a bit "meh" but I'd put him in a similar category as Wrexham's Phill Parkinson in that I'd personally class him/them as a bit 'unfashionable' but would probably get the results required. If I had to pick one of the 3 I'd got for Clarke but I'd be happy with any of them.
  11. If he can do that, he might be able to turn Shelton into the box-to-box midfielder Hartlepool fans said he was. Bring him in!
  12. The only caveat I'd add to Williamson, is that he's in his 5th (I think) season with them and I don't realistically think he'd be able to come here and have us playing like Gateshead straight away. Whoever came in* would have to hit the ground running or I'd imagine the toxicity would turn towards the board. * still don't think Unsworth's going anywhere yet anyway.
  13. I bet Buxton are fuming. 2-1 up in 96th min with 4 injury time minutes left to play, and they are making them play the full match again.
  14. I thought there was some form of loan (correct me on the right term) to the tune of about £5mil made available? Obviously that was for all sorts including infrastructure etc. and we've recently announced plans to completely renovate little wembley and work already underway to upgrade chapel lane. I'm not having it that we can't afford to sack him, not a chance.
  15. Couldn't have put it better. I really wanted it to work out for Us and Unsworth. I'm probably one of the minority that thinks he comes across really well in everything other than his post match interviews, and by all accounts he's a really nice bloke. I was all for giving him 'til October/November but I certainly didn't expect us to sit one point outside the relegation places with only 1 win from our opening 8. Thanks for trying David, but I think it's time to go.
  16. There were quite a few articles the other day suggesting they were going for Pete Wild... The source must have heard "ex Oldham manager" and thought of the wrong one.
  17. Thought we were ok overall. Should have managed the game better though, and I agree with the above, bringing Nuttall on exposed Sutton, although what he was doing dropping off so deep on his own for their second? The referee's are absolutely atrocious in this league, I thought they were bad in the EFL but fuck me, so bad down here. Unsworth looked proper deflated towards the end.
  18. I'd chuck some money at their number 8 if I were Frank
