He's incredible and it's class how he's unanimously adored but my guilty pleasure is to read from page 560 as a reminder it wasn't always this delightful, a fair number of people had turned on him

Blimey. Just did this. Would recommend to others.

Just reading back. Supporters really are the pits. You know it'll be the same the next winless run or cup exit too. 

Noticed you liking one of them mind

Had reservations when we signed him but kept quiet about them, but nailing my colours to the mast now. He's shite and we'll do fuck all bar go down with him in charge. Feel free to bookmark this.

I remember on the morning of the Leeds game, somebody was already putting Leeds (a) on the loss sheet. When it was reasonably pointed out that that was a bit silly, said poster told us to come back at full time. It was stupid even if we had been turned over (and it’s easy to forget that Leeds were strong favourites) and really does illustrate this need people have for managers to fail. All a bit weird.

Think Bruce would have done better points wise tbh, he just flukes it when he needs to. Howe has no luck, we're going down with him. 

 

 

Yikes

Wet blanket managing a team with no arsehole, is it any wonder we shit the bed so often?

 

1 shot on target against a team who have lost 6 on the bounce, and even that came from Watford's fullback tripping over his own feet. 

 

He's shit. I've been telling you all for weeks. He's made absolutely no impact on this club, the job is way too big for him.

 

Wow...

Bizarre time anyway. I'm still not fully shifted from the negative mentality change which the club has done so well to remove. I still don't fully believe, I'd still be on the boo box with the scorpions as Im not sure I'll ever shake the bad things ready to happen to us.

Optimistic Nut liked that post as well?

 

There were posts of that ilk I went back (like that) and liked the last time that page was linked to remind people what they'd posted.

Bet you've never been wrong before either have you? 

 

No one at that time calling him the second coming of Christ either. There's been a massive change of opinion, at best people were neutral, now they'd let him shag their lass and hug him for it. Trying to gain some kind of high ground is canny pathetic.

That prick Adam P was another one. Think the day it was confirmed it was going to be Howe he slagged him and the club off for the appointment. The next day he was kissing his arse trying to get a glimpse of him.

Wanting him sacked midway through January and after 10 games in charge and Benitez who himself had just been sacked by Everton on the same day as that Watford result to replace him was as shite a take then as it is now imo.

And yet people are doing the same thing in the Gordon thread right now, some just never learn.

Guess you always supported Joelinton & Murphy, even Almiron. Not a bad word said. ?

Despite the original ask being incredibly difficult?

 

I'm quite the opposite. If we go down, I can't think of many managers of a better standard who would be prepared to take on the challenge.

 

This is my first post after page 560, admittedly 28 pages down the line.

 

I think I can hold my head up high with this one.:aww:

My brother who has played a bit of football and I’ll defer to regards footballing knowledge had concerns about Howe coming in. He was worried that the defensive side wouldn’t improve at all which desperately needed sorting. I think some of his concerns have been proved right so far. 

Whats your brothers thoughts thesedays?

If it hadn't been for Howe, those opinions would have been 100% valid still. ;)
