JamboAndrew Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 1 hour ago, Sir Gio said: I don't think she has helped herself by extending the process. She should have been planning for this in August. It's a long time for the players to be in limbo I agree to some extent. She said she wanted to give Craig a round of fixtures. She said she made a mistake and gave him too long. And in hindsight maybe should have started tentative enquiries re a replacement sooner. She was clear and above board and gave her man time. She showed we stick by our managers and don't go behind their backs or make knee jerk reactions. There are several ways to look at this. Could she/should she have acted sooner? Does in the longer term, a reputation for treating managers better make us a more attractive proposition? Time will tell. We absolutely are not in the situation we should be in. I'd hope lessons have been learned. And Ann has admitted mistakes have been made here. I like how she conducts her business, and I like the fact we seem to be taking a little longer and getting the right man, even though it seems a tougher job. Rightly or wrongly she has taken this route to get the man she thinks is right, rather than getting someone in quick. Time will tell. I just am not a fan of the outrage directed at her that gets personal and is painted on bridges. It's only a minority doing it. But it does paint the wider support. And our mysterious benefactor is an asset I'd rather we don't dissuade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think it’s the perfect game to start, he’ll see exactly who the shite bags are in the team and those who are prepared to stand up and be counted. They’re one of the best teams in the league so he can see what needs done to get anywhere near them and on a personal level he’s not expected to win so it’s a free(ish) hit for him.
