Ryan Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 If ever that was a bog-standard average appointment that epitomised the fact they're not coming up for a while, this is it. Yep Think this just cements my thoughts that they're just going to be a mid-table Championship club for years to come. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Easiest thing in the world is to go for another one off the merry go round of Mclarens, Bruces, Moyes blah blah blah. This is a massive change in direction with a manager who knows this division inside out, who knows how to do well in this division even though he has worked in smaller sides but has served an apprenticeship of 600+ games as a manager. This is his biggest stage by far, it will give him the scope to test his metal in the Premiership if he makes a go of it and for me he is the perfect appointment at the perfect time. No point in appointing Billy Big Bollox then giving him £2.50 to spend. https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/absolutely-delighted-with-this-appointment.1375073/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallsendmag Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Apparently he's a better manager than Rafa although I'm pretty sure Benitez came out better in the head to head last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being promoted from League One and guiding teams to the lofty heights of finishing midtable is hardly an achievement. This team needs an instant return to the PL. He's a complete nothing manager and in no way will ever get this mackem team anywhere near promotion. As was proven last season, "knowing the division" is a load of horseshit.

Dave Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 It's an absolutely average appointment. Might work out, might not. But it's hardly inspiring for a club that desperately needs change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Might have been mentioned but I'm sure someone posted something on here a while ago about how Grayson had been an utter arse to Andy O'Brien when someone in his family had died and he demanded he played a game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can really see them getting off to a rotten start, and he'll be under pressure after 10 matches. Brilliant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
