thewellander Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Roed: We'll get European spotApr 1 2007 By Neil Farrington, The Sunday Sun Glenn Roeder last night guaranteed Newcastle fans European qualification next season . . . If the club stays relatively injury-free. The United boss concedes that a top-six finish is beyond his side this season, but sees it as a certainty next year - fitness permitting. "Next year, injury-free, we will return to a season where European football is guaranteed," promised Roeder. And the manager vowed to ride out any criticism that comes his way in the meantime. "If you do well you get a pat on the back and if you don't do well, you get a kick up the backside. That is football," he said. "You get judged every game. "I love football and the business, and I accept that responsibility. If you only want to get patted on the back, don't become a manager." It irritates me that he won't acknowlege even for a second that he has played a role in the bad form of the club. Once again, he mentions the injuries, and he claims that the fans are only down on him because the club aren't getting results. Basically, our specific gripes about him are just the rumblings of the ignorant masses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Roed: We'll get European spotApr 1 2007 "I love football and the business, and I accept that responsibility. If you only want to get patted on the back, don't become a manager." So fucking accept some of that responsibility damnit!!! Examples might be: "I erred in Holland" "My team selection against Man City may have been too negative" "I can totally understand the fans frustration when my tactics and substitutions turn out to be wrong" "Making Scott Parker club captain was a mistake" Etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooBoo Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 He's beginning to sound very desperate. Making promises about next season already translates into "yep, i know this season has been awful". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 He is fkn mental if he thinks he can get this aquad to play well enough for the last 7 games to finish in a EUFA spot, I think we will be very lucky to finish in the top half of the table at all..

Mick Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 He's beginning to sound very desperate. Making promises about next season already translates into "yep, i know this season has been awful". He's not only making promises for next year, he's got the injury excuse in early. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzzieMandias Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 The rest of the sentence is pretty silly too: "we will return to a season where European football is guaranteed." Return! Guaranteed! When was European football ever fucking guaranteed at this club? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Knightrider Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 The more I read, the more I feel the board are thinking "here's some rope, see if you can hang yourself" he isn't going to convince or fool anyone and if anything, is making things worse for himself.
