All I was saying was that he was entitled to an opinion no matter what frequency his support is. But I agree with you both in regards to personal attacks and accusations without any substance. That should really be left off the forum. I think the situation in regards to the running of the club can be discussed without resorting to it getting personal.

I agree, all you fans giving Derek grief for staying away and then coming back to support his team and voicing his opinion like we all do. Should be ashamed of yourselves. By having ago at his opinion this is really going to encourage the fans that the club needs to come back to BP.

Matt Chambers twitter account makes for interesting reading right now.

I don't care as long as it gets results. It's this kind of attitude from the fans that forced the club into the mistake of sacking Ronnie Moore, thus holding the club back and into the state it's in now. So for the fans who are more concerned about the style of football rather than the results and climbing up the table. Your the ones holding the club back. I think Phil Brown would not be a bad shout.

I think he has already had his last drink at the last chance saloon judging by SC comments.

Bye bye Paul, thanks for the cup win. But your time has to be up now. We need points and we are not getting them.

Because back then we could afford to sack shez, but now we have no money? So we are stuck with the current situation, until money comes in from new investment or new ownership. Cost! Its the only logical explanation.

Because we either can't afford to sack him or lack the ambition to sack him? That would involve taking a risk and we know the club management in recent years don't like to take risks, unless the fans give them no choice.

I can just picture the video that you would put together for Furman, the art in the sideways pass or in Wes's case the art of loosing your head when your team needs you and get sent off.

I have to wonder why Dickov picks Furman and Wes over this guy, that video proves what a tool Dickov is right now.

Agreed. He will not get the sack because our piss poor club management don't have the balls or the ambition to do it.

Well at least his tactics got results unlike the shower of :censored: we have now!

There are a couple of good websites that will show the game. I cancelled cable 6 months ago and all my TV viewing including sports is done through the internet.

Same here, I too saw it in Nova Scotia last season.

Great result today! Although I am frustrated in there lack of motivation and effort to do this week in, week out. Especially Simpson! Hopefully this will be the kick up the ass they need to do this. And not just the attitude of the modern lower league footballer to only show there talents when there under a bigger spotlight! But well done all the same!

Its up there with Graeme Sharps Sami Hypia decision.

He had a good 6-9 months of doing something with my chums as you put it. But failed! Before they had there clear out(some were still there after 6-9 months Jobson, Henry, Halle). Need I remind you that my chums achieved more for our club than any other player has done past or present.

You must be Colin Harvey then?

We should of been at that point when Ronnie Moore was in charge!

I agree that excuse is becoming very lame! Look at Tramere!

Supported Latics for 24 years and I remember the time when Sharp was manager, worst manager during my time and possibly the worst in the history of the club! The reason for this was he had the majority of the players still at the club from the Royle era and did nothing with them except give them free transfers for other clubs to benefit from and near enough put us to where we are now! His time as manager still annoys me to this day and the fact he released my favourite player of all time "Rick Holden" when Rick still had a lot to offer! Then went on to replace him with either Paul Rickers or Toddy Orlygson, who were not in his class! The fact that Sharp is now a tour guide at Everton says a lot for his management skills!

He is just towing the club line, remember 2 seasons ago they made Dean Brill sound like Gianluigi Buffon in every match report on the club website! When we all knew he was crap. With comments like that from Gordon is why we have a group of fans that are the blinkered brigade.

I thought we shot ourselves in the foot getting rid of him. His hoofball wasn't attractive but people have got to remember we were and still are a league 1 club and not in the Premier league. If it was getting results, which there was the potential at the time then who bloody cares how we play! I don't care how we play as long as it gets results, which equals promotion, more money for the club and more fans. Not the piss pot predicament that we are in now.
