    It happens, I read even Elvis was told to stick to truck driving, but it seemed to spurred him on rather than packing in singing.

    Sorry to repeat myself again as is my habit, but MM had chances to play wingers Atherton and Walker in the same team, but never did. Both will go on to play at a far higher level than us IMO. He stuck with his failed turgid 7 at the back hoofball and that's what annoys me more that anything.
  3. BP1960
    Yet he hasn't dropped Norwood, probably the most underperforming player in the last dozen games. And if Brabin had anything to do with it the January signings have been a big flop.

    He can bring the ball out of defence well, more of being told the clear the ball I suspect.

    I've renewed my season ticket because I support a club I've followed for over 60 years. But to see Frank's best intentions being ruined is heartbreaking.
  6. BP1960
    Maybe a settlement if he nor the club aren't happy?
  7. BP1960
    He's not happy in the job though is he? and it looks to me neither are the players. That's a major problem.

    I thought he might resign too before being pushed. There's more to life than being a football manager. His health will suffer if he carries on with most of this lot most next season. Problem is I'd feel sorry for the next manager as he'd be dumped with much of the same.

    He kept picking the same ones though and axing some like Hobson who always put a shift in. Banishing 2 forwards like Tollitt and Willoughby when they could have been needed was ridiculous, same with Reid who should have been forgiven for his misdemeanour as he may well have fired us into the play offs.
  10. BP1960
    By that reckoning you'd have kept DU till the end of the season. Fans aren't stupid, they say what they see and will cheer when it's good and give flak when it isn't.

    Even during that spell he was booed at home matches for his 7 at the back tactics. Instead of bigging him up you need to ask why he's lost total control of the team? Fans pay good money to this club and I've no doubt they have been badly let down by the manager and players. If you were served regular poor meals in a restaurant would you still praise the chef and hope he improves with a new menu? We need Gordon Ramsey at this club to tell the board it as it is.

    The most booed off manager I've seen in 60 years. Fans should be entitled to ask why is that.
  13. BP1960
    Even Sheron didn't look interested when he came on and we never thought it would come to that.
  14. BP1960
    Well would he inspire you? He certainly hasn't done with the players on match days.
  15. BP1960
    Basically we have a plethora of lazy players and a manager who can't motivate them. A double disaster whammy.
  16. BP1960
    My observation is he's lost his love for the game and the players know it. This comes across in his downbeat interviews. I feel he ought to retire and find some enjoyment outside the game. We can't carry on with a manager who cannot motivate his staff.

    My outfielders retained list is as follows;
  18. BP1960
    There's absolutely no reason he shouldn't have been inspiring the players to a play off position, that's his job and he's failed miserably. Even pub teams players can put in plenty of effort so why not this lot?
  19. BP1960
    He's half hearted, runs in fits and starts and easily dispossessed - same with Dallas, and that's the front two Mellon selected. It's no wonder goals have been scarce. Even Tollitt, Willoughby or Reid would have put in more effort than them and probably have scored more.
  20. BP1960
    The managers half hearted interviews looked to have reflected on the team. A manager is supposed to motivate even the poorest players into putting in 100 % effort and we've seen none of that. His position now has to be questioned by the board as DU was rightly sacked for similar turgid performances.
  21. BP1960
    Oxford commentator says Norwood doesn't look interested.
  22. BP1960
    Where's the urgency?
  23. BP1960
    Is Dallas playing?
  24. BP1960
    But we can't have scouted players at the time like Freeman who had injury problems. Appears to me more like agent recommendations.
  25. BP1960
    Is it player recruitment? Oldham Rugby have assembled about 20 new players who have soon gelled and are flying.
