Monty Burns Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 excellent. thanks Andy. l'm naturally cynical at extended business structures, but thats jus bc lm a Anarcho-Communist so l can fuckoff total trust in all of the characters so therefore total trust in the set up, leaving just the Football to focus [mostly] on. what a treat . echo Binmans sentiments that a flying start to 2023-24 is imperative.

Monty Burns Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 l'd be pretty demorolised if l did any of the ACV work, bin that off it's pointless. seemed a great idea at the time and in principle but to be so easily sidestepped in such an obvious manner which we all failed to see is rug pulling of the highest order .

rudemedic Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Was it a 10-2 aggregate thumping, using the literal definition or was it a 7-2 aggregate thumping using the standard football definition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aggregate scores usually only apply to 2 games, one home, one away. Hence why I question it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlossopLatic Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 10-2 or 7-2 either way its not good. I don't think we should measure the progress of the side purely on the basis of how we did in the 2 games against Wrexham but it does show that we really are quite a way still from a promotion achieving team. I didn't go but having seen the scoreline some of the initial reaction on social media at Half time and to be quite frank I logged off and have stayed away since then (its not good on here when we lose at the best of times but a pasting it can get abit depressing) as Winston Churchill once said defeat is one thing humiliation is another. What a manager says in the pressroom and what he says in the dressing room should be 2 very different things. In the press room you should be a diplomat, in the dressing room he needs to be honest and I hope he was honest with them. I also hoped that they will have got a beasting in training today and possibly even been in yesterday morning to have gone through that performance. I expect a reaction on Friday. What we can't have for the rest of the season is a downing of tools it will show slack standards. Any players thinking just staying up is good enough this season, and are now just going to go through the motions for the rest of the season then we need to get rid of them because they won't have the mentality to be part of a promotion chasing team. Its vital that the management team drill this into them for the remaining 6 games of the season. Saturday should act as a wake up call that standards haven't been met. One of the biggest failing of our club in the last decade or so is the churn of managers. You have to go back to 2013/14 season for the last time we didn't change the name on the managers door during the season. For any club that is insanity the results in that time show it has been disatourous while not the only reason we've failed during that time it certainly played a part. The whole culture of the club has been reactionary for far too long and it has too change. That's going to require nerve in the boardroom and a belief in what they are doing. We can't have a situation where the tail is wagging the dog. The board can't bend to mob rule in the stands. Simon Corney once admitted sacking Ronnie Moore based of a slump in season ticket sales was a mistake, a mistake the Rothwells and the Royles would be wise to learn from. Listening to the fans is one thing. Bending the knee to them is another. However we have to be objective and if results completely tail off between now and the end of the season then I wouldn't be against relieving Mr Unsworth of his duties as it would show he isn't running a tight ship. Their is a theory that David Unsworth is unsackable due to his close relationship with the Royles. This idea simply doesn't wash, we are just moving away from this reactionary culture that has failed us. We've all seen how much money the Rothwells have been prepared to stump up in the last week. Their is no way they are going to let that investment be fritted away. Frank Rothwells persona is that of a loveable Grandad, who wears a flat cap drinks John Willie Lees and is the life and soul of the party. Don't let that fool you, underneath that flat cap is a shrewd business mind who has probably sacked more people than he can remember but has probably only done it when it is the last resort. We would be wise as fans not to underestimate him. So too would Mr Unsworth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
