Mick Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 And if there is one manager that genuinely had the injuries excuse, it's Roeder. And yet our best results were when we had players injured and he had virtually no say in who he picked, he was shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy84 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 It's going to be Carver. So painfully obvious and inevitable. In typical NUFC fashion his appointment will be confirmed on the 25th May in the hope that come August everything will have blown over Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ElCid Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 It's going to be Carver. So painfully obvious and inevitable. In typical NUFC fashion his appointment will be confirmed on the 25th May in the hope that come August everything will have blown over If they appoint Carver there will be the biggest storm of fans chucking their tickets in the history of this club - if not the footballing world - just cannot see them taking this risk and the fat c*** will no way want to lose millions (and it would be by the number of cancellations, league placing and relegation next year) by a stupid decision as even he is not that daft. If he does though (I just can't see it) then it fully illustrates his two goals are to make money of the tv dosh with the second one deliberately and blatantly wanting to p*ss the fans off.

SUPERTOON Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Clutching at straws, but surely appointing Carver would be the surest sign yet that he is going to sell next summer. Everyone knows his only care and worry is staying in the premier league, appointing Carver 100% guarantees relegation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone knows his only care and worry is staying in the premier league, appointing Carver 100% guarantees relegation. Again if so, he is not going to risk relegation and as a result force the selling price down if he was going to sell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Main reason I think Carver might get it is that Ashley's proven himself to be an irrational smart-arse that loves doing the opposite of what anyone who knows football would tell him to.

NG32 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Is he f***. We were very poor under Shearer but not this level of bad. Shearer also looked like a man who would have gotten up to speed with management eventually, he should never have brought Dowie with him though. Carver is just completely and utterly clueless. We were poor but a different kind of poor, this complete and utter "why bother" under Ashley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Nice to see Carver instilling confidence in the young lads: Dimitri Bourandanis, @Mitcho1992: Why do you think Adam Armstrong or Olivier kemen HAVNT got more minutes surely they wouldn't do any worse. Mark says: JC doesn't want to blood them too early. He mentioned Adam Campbell the other week when the Armstrong issue was brought up. He said being over-promoted too early had "ruined" him. Also he said Armstrong hadn't been playing particularly well in the reserves to justify it. That's the man-management skills he gleened off SBR in action right there.

TRon Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Also he said Armstrong hadn't been playing particularly well in the reserves to justify it So the only reason he keeps bringing him on in the 90th min must be to score brownie points with the local fans. Nice touch wor John. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
