Tooj Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 So apart from Unbelievable's brother-in-law and himself who else has saw much of Douglas? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuy_O Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I see these differing views and can agree from both sides at times. Thing is though, it wasn't just bad form. It was just about everything. The style, the formation, the set pieces, him and his gob. The utter nonsense he spouted once we were safe, thinking were stupid with some of his bullshit stats. He doesn't deserve another go, 5th place or not, last season was as poor a performance from a manager as i can remember. From games he decided to give up on, Man City away, Brighton in the cup, the first 70 mins against Benfica. To continue to hoof every ball into the box whenever we get a free kick. The continued selection of Jonas. The list really does go on. He deserves nothing and should have been sacked multiple times last season. But as much as i dislike him, he has my support for now in the hope he can gets us playing and performing well, and if this lad Douglas will aid that, then brilliant. As unlikely as that is. Aye. If this continues into the new season and it's clear that mistakes are not being rectified or learned by, then it's pretty obvious something is majorly wrong with the manager and his staff. For instance if we're all sitting there first game and it's shite free kicks and corners from the off. It'll just prompt the question if the staff have even done anything on the training ground.

They were pretty open about Pardew, then Carver and finally Steve Stone having a go at getting them better. Plainly obvious none of them is good enough to do anything about it, which is a joke for 3 professional coaches, an absolute joke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 The 25-year-old will now not be moving to St James' Park and Sky Sports understands that the decision was made by Kinnear. It is understood Kinnear has already identified other defensive targets for the club to move for this summer. Can't wait to see what treats Kinnear has in store instead.
