....... and he would have come out with Chris Coleman courtesy of the Egyptian! Precisely why I added the words "metaphorically speaking", my friend. blueyes.gif But I didn't want your qualifying phrase to get in the way of my joke!! bluebiggrin.gif Well clearly, I DID! tongue.gif tongue.gif

Shut it bawbag.

Just thought we needed another poll... tongue.gif

Shepherd went to LIDL for a manager when he should have gone to Harrods (metaphorically speaking).

Gotta love Oliver for that comment haven't you.. :shock:

says who? Voice of the people, Alan Oliver for one, said that Martin O'Neill was Shepherd's number one choice. O'Neill himself did not deny it when asked, but said he wouldn't comment on it. Do you seriously think that Shepherd did not even try to get O'Neill? If the answer is no, then why not? given that he didn't seem to try to get anyone else who was available. I think you'll find that Alan Oliver later changed his mind and claimed we never even spoke to O'Neill when he was spinning his propaganda about how all the fans wanted Roeder as the new boss. I know that, well he never can make his mind up about anything, can he? just spins the club propaganda to suit!! I don't know if Martin O'Neill was approached or not, no one does, but most of the papers all seem to think that he was. Maybe they are wrong about that but the fact is O'Neill was available, as was Hitzfeld. Ranieri practically begged for the job, Houlier was rumoured to be interested, yet we ended up with Roeder. We ended up with someone who drives a Peugeot, you mean. Wonder what sealed the deal for FFS?

Or are they are simply telling it like it is? Something that the local rags (well the Chronicle in the main) seem incapable of doing. No no, don't get me wrong...it's a good article. Just gives me an overbearing sense of doom reading it in black and white in a "quality" broadsheet paper, that's all. If this, and any other articles from national papers, can give FFS the nudge we need to sort things out one way or the other, then fine. However if all it does in the end is exacerbate the misery of us fans, and give others (Mackems etc) a nice free dose of schadenfreude then I'd prefer not to see it.

Once the vultures from Fleet Street get interested, then you KNOW it's terminal. They're rubbing their hands with glee at the prospect of another Leeds United on the cards.

Would you prefer slapstick? bluebiggrin.gif FS: "Roeder these results are SHITE. I'm ganna pezzle ya". * Lurches round desk to grab hold of Roeder with arms outstretched. Slips on banana skin & lands with feet in air * FS: "Arrrrghhhh me arse !!!!!!!" * Roeder runs out of door * Aye. That worked better for me like.

Aye.

Never mind that this decision by Shepherd seems to be motivated by greed. What does it say about the state of our finances? THAT'S the question I fear we should really be asking.

This place is rapidly becoming an online version of Depressives Anonymous. I'm now sufficiently despondent to be thinking crazy things like "maybe relegation would be a necessary evil..." so yep, bring it on, let's have Robson Mk.II - The Terminator.

Hope it does turn out that way, tbh. blueyes.gif

I'm with you Bluf! Honestly - nothing good will come of getting rid of Fred right now. It's like the fanbase is going into self-destruct mode. I'm no fan of FFS, but the trouble right now is the players are clearly down, the manager's got no strikeforce and absolutely no clue what the hell he's doing.

We'll be relegated. Don't think I have much more to say.

My reaction: Hope Krul and Luque keep their places for the Sheff game.

TBF, faced with a choice of Colin Murray or John Barnes, you'd have to go with Murray. blueyes.gif

Whatever floats your boat... gay.gif

Oh, the irony!

Sheringham though... still going strong. Anyone else now thinking "if only" bluesigh.gif

Can't help wondering just how many of these "injuries" are legit. Sounds like the typical sort of absenteeism you'd expect to see at any badly run company with poor morale amongst the staff, tbh. Only difference is these fuckers get paid multiples of the average person's annual salary per week only to bleat about how stressful their job is. Take them out the back and shoot them, that's what I say. blueupset.gif

Aye, while he's at it, he can bring in Steven Pressley and Craig Gordon too.

No. He's had his chance. He deserves to rot in the reserves and at best struggle to make the bench. :shock: Please tell me you're either : (a) Joking (b) Certified Insane
