Whether this is true or not (and it sounds plausible enough), it's exactly what I feared would happen as a result of the amateurish show of strength by the fans ringleaders. I hope True Faith, The Mag and the rest of the rabble rousers are reading this.
I rate Venables as a coach, he's exactly what we need as a short term appointment. I hope him and his wife overcome their doubts and take the opportunity. We need a manager.
I think it's unfair to blame the fanzines, everyone was a little....hectic a couple of weeks ago, I know of people who weren't taking their kids because they knew how it was going to be. I was fucking livid myself, even cheered the banner which I later realised was silly, people wanted a focus, and that was it. I'm not blaming 'us' btw, just saying there were mistakes made by many parties, supporters included, me, you etc.
Not really a response to you, but I quoted you anyway, we all make mistakes
I don't blame fans for being livid at what happened, but those who supposedly speak for the fans have an extra responsibilty. If you are going to organise and set up protests in the name of the fans, through publications and in print, at least you should think through the consequences.
Perhaps so, but they're not professional journalists, just supporters who happen to write about it, carried along with the rest of us who lost our rags a bit, the important thing is that the future is more important than the (recent) past.
I have nothing to do with any publication before you ask, only rarely read either.

Terry V's Black and White army!
We're not going to get anyone better right now, I say go for it.
After much depressing thinking, I actually agree. One day we'll all look back on this and laugh.
It's definitely just resigning yourself to what's on offer rather than wishing for an ideal. I hope the laughing day is sooner rather than later. I'm even having trouble with gallows (Gallowgate?) humour right now.

Cheers, you did right, whatever anyone thinks of TV.

You would think a media source owned by Murdoch would ....oh, wait.

The fact we've heard nothing more suggests to me he's rejected the post. If Sky knew anything in the first place.
He was quoted saying more talks would be held today pal.
Oh right, well shut me up!
I'm just getting the news from here, apparently not very carefully.

It's not going to happen, but yes. Only way I can see him returning to management is in the Championship or lower.....oh, wait.

Shearer has to be careful what he says as well, what he actually thinks might not be broadcastable.

Oh I see what you mean, the cockney gangster bit as well as Souness. No, I was just bemoaning the terrible state our club is in when they're seen as the best we could hope for.
I skipped out on going to the game last night, even left the pub at half time, I really can't remember doing that before. If I could stop caring I would. Can cope with the highs and lows, but this feels like a roller-coaster which only does downwards. Could be worse, and will be if the mackems beat us next month. I'm expecting some long overdue abuse from them.

and monkey heed has to have been added for a laugh.

No, just agree that it's a realistic list, and some of them would likely refuse.Can anyone moaning about Venables answer this question:
"You need an emergency manager to come in for one month. Who do you appoint?"
If you can't come up with a satisfactory answer then shut it.
souness
dalgleish
curbishley
peter reid
howard wilkinson
etc
etc etc
al preferable to a 3rd cockney gangster
It's come to this. We're going to get fucked over on Saturday.
You agree with that abomination of a post?
Just to reiterate, the name of SOUNESS is included in that list.
*edit* By 'come to this' I mean we're barrel scraping, as no decent manager would touch us.
-
I don't hate Londoners at all, some of my best friends etc. OK we have a laugh about it, but really, if you know the people with the banner, please tell them to cut it out. It makes us look like dicks apart from anything else, and we're getting quite enough humiliation on the pitch.

So, anyone up for a visit to Molineux next season?
I hope so as thatll mean we're still in the premiership
Good positive thinking. I'd just go as I lived in Wolverhampton for a few years, so I could make a weekend of it.

I only watched the first dreary half in a pub, nipped home at half time as I'd forgotten my baccy. Was there long enough to see how bad it had got. Decided to give the rest a miss.
Phoned my mam even, she remembers when we were good. She had nothing positive to say...

Is it fair to discourage the use of the cockneys out banner now? I know it's been discussed lots, and everyone has the right to express their opinion, but it isn't helpful.
Maybe not the right thread, but I'm not jumping into the huge threads with this, it's sort of relevant.

I'm sure that's not the police helicopter overhead....

The Carling cup is the only realistic thing we can do well in this season. The players need our support at such a difficuilt time and if they look round and see that theres only 15 thousand there then thats not going to do them any favours at all.
I see the reason people are boycotting the game, but at the end of the day, supporting the team is far more important in my opinion. If you want to boycott something, then boycott the merchandice etc, not the games
I agree, but some people probably aren't making a protest by not going, they just guess it could be a particularly miserable game, regardless of the result. I'm still undecided, let's face it, it'll be easy to get tickets on the gate.

Sorry, are we not allowed youtube clips? I'll know in future.
You've been here two years, no excuse whatsoever.
Strangely I don't lurk every day, just an occasional poster, thanks for your input. Now go away.

Aye. New rule.
Understood boss. Reading should have scored an own goal to be sporting, though it could be seen as taking the piss out of the officials.
