JimmyCant Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 1 hour ago, Smith's right boot said: Load of shite. No, the clear evidence of us performing well in the league under him is evidenced by his league finishes with us. 1st 3rd left us in 2nd/3rd 1st Can't be any clearer than that. Really can't be. If you don't see the correlation between league placings and that being evidence of overall performance for the team over a league season then I am unable to help you. How is evidence that a manager who did well 5 years ago enough to convince you he will do well again next season. That’s just hope. It’s not evidence. We’ve had 2 fairly recent returning managers who did well first time round and were abject failures second time round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were all eating a bit of humble pie and giving him a bit of credit for a change - me included. But bafflingly - we let him go. Now if we were going to sign someone younger and better I’d say ok fair enough but that doesn’t appear to be the case- he’s gone public saying smith will go back to playing on the right. Smith doesn’t have the legs, ive been saying it the whole season. His lack of legs and getting beyond the midfield have been a huge problem. A blind man can see that surely. Then he compounds that bizarre decisons with an equally bizarre decisions to sign a keeper who in the event that we need him isn’t god enough. I don’t trust the guy at all. He won’t make it till Christmas. I'll have 50p he does He has a habit of getting League campaigns right, bad League Cup would see pressure amplified. I'm an optimist, not sure Logan's legs were any better than Smith's mind you, but definitely agreed its a position for legs. Actually one that might have suited Clare better had Stendel tried a 3. I like the idea of Gino, Boyce and GMS, midfield not being addressed would have been my biggest criticism for the year and still remains my worry. Would be where I would judge him on strategy.

Personally I’ll be renewing my season ticket in the hope/expectation that the folk in the immediate vicinity will be reasonably well behaved and positive, as they generally are. League cup games are more problematic. I’m inclined to give home ones a miss but might make an away one if it’s a ground with terracing where, as you say, you can move away from the morons.

As people here have been keen to point out, football is a form of entertainment. What the haters have to remember is that they are potentially disrupting other people’s entertainment (not to mention causing upset to very young fans). They don’t have a right to do that simply because they want a change of manager/chairman. As far as I’m concerned it is or should be support the team during games or GTF. If a few balding, red-faced middle aged men get thrown out and subsequently banned from the ground, I won’t shed any tears. Aye, that'll work. "the haters" I thought "the haters" were told repeatedly on here ( re "football is a form of entertainment".) that if they wanted to be entertained they should **** off somewhere else.

This season we won promotion tho, so league wise we done well. He could have easily been sacked for the sc performance, he wasn't. He was never getting sacked for the league performance, we won it, easily. Whoever is manager will suffer defeats, we shouldn't sack folk after every one we think is shite, that would be madness. We should sack folk for a consistant run of poor /bad results ( for example one that takes us to 10th after the first round of fixtures or to bottom of the league after 30 games played, but that never happened under Robbie. He's also not been sacked for his sc shocker, so I'll move on. Moving on, the evidence is that under Robbie we'll be consistent in the league but poor in the cups. Getting us high in the league and back to where we belong is priority atm I think, and hopefully he improves his cup record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
