'I'm no fan of Allardyce, and I can't wait for his inevitable replacement which will hopefully come sooner rather than later.'

Fuck me! That's the second line of a NOT Allardyce out thread.

Re: G&S vote of confidence meeting has jeopardised this season
Hairy , how does that make them panic buys?. Anyway , cresswell, kouyate and zarate all started didn't they so hardly the same 11. Oh and before anyone claims I'm sticking up for our manager . The fat cunt should have also started with valencia or sakho up front. I'm just not sure how the manager persisting with cole up front means all our signings are panic buys.

Weve signed very well this summer.

Sams the problem

The purpose of the thread was to criticise G&S' handling of the vote of confidence. The quote you've highlighted out of context was just an aside.

North Bank 9:51 Sun Aug 31
Re: G&S vote of confidence meeting has jeopardised this season
chelmsford we've hardly evolved though have we, 3 seasons after our promotion and 6 of the 10 starting outfield players yesterday were regulars in the side that came third in the Championship.

chelmsfordhammer 9:55 Sun Aug 31
Re: G&S vote of confidence meeting has jeopardised this season
North bank, so how does that make our signings panic buys?.

franksfat&slow&wank 9:56 Sun Aug 31
Re: G&S vote of confidence meeting has jeopardised this season
We have the players like Ernie said, let's see what this fat cunt serves up

North Bank 10:00 Sun Aug 31
Re: G&S vote of confidence meeting has jeopardised this season
They're not, but it's pretty much the same team that unspectacularly got promoted, in our third season since promotion he's hardly progressed the team

chelmsfordhammer 10:02 Sun Aug 31
Re: G&S vote of confidence meeting has jeopardised this season
North bank, erm where did I say he has? I just pointed out that it wasn't the same starting 11 as three new signings started the game. I'm not sure why that should be up for debate as it's a fact.

Athletico Easthamico 10:02 Sun Aug 31
Re: G&S vote of confidence meeting has jeopardised this season
We will have to wait until we see the team for the Hull game.

I assume Song will be playing, Jarvis, Jenkinson and Sakho and/or Valencia.

If we are shit in that game I suggest it may be time to panic.

Re: G&S vote of confidence meeting has jeopardised this season
There is no way to get our message across to the board. 80% wanted him out, and they kept him. 44% odd didn't want the new badge, they changed it slightly and went with it anyway.

Had a quick look at the stars from last season and this in the league:

P 41 W 12 29% win ratio

P 21 at home, W 7. 33% win ratio


How has this cunt not been sacked?

peroni 10:13 Sun Aug 31
Re: G&S vote of confidence meeting has jeopardised this season
It's a very good opening post V.

The problem with Sullivan and Gold isn't their lack of commitment or unwillingness to spend, it's simply that they're not very good at their jobs. They definitely love the club, they're just very shit at what they do. Their record as chairmen pretty much illustrates that. Both at Birmingham and now with us.

clack 10:14 Sun Aug 31
Re: G&S vote of confidence meeting has jeopardised this season
Good article, flying V.

Demanding the most 'direct' manager of the last 15 years to suddenly change his whole footballing Outlook, and then trying to graft South American ball-players onto his direct tactics is asking for the mess you got yesterday, in my opinion.

Far Cough 10:15 Sun Aug 31
Re: G&S vote of confidence meeting has jeopardised this season
But we didn't play direct yesterday did we, I don't know what it was but it wasn't direct?

Yes. This thread is completely different from the Dildo Brothers get Sam out thread.

chelmsfordhammer 10:21 Sun Aug 31
Re: G&S vote of confidence meeting has jeopardised this season
Fc, I didn't think we did . We did try and pass it through midfield , unfortunately our midfield were incapable of passing the ball to their own team mates.

Sir Alf 10:21 Sun Aug 31
Re: G&S vote of confidence meeting has jeopardised this season
The problem as we all suspected but now know is that the owners are asking the manager to get results but not using his tried and tested system. Players bought are not ones to fit that system. So its like buying a formula 1 car for a motocross race.

Yesterday, Southampton's system of pass and move, possession based football with lots of movement was seen to run rings around our team. All members of their team were moving, they are instructed to move the ball on in 1 or 2 seconds and to get it back asap when out of possession.

Us? BFS only knows the direct approach, to a big target man, and then win the knock downs or "second phase". The rest of the system is based on defending deep in numbers etc...

BFS and the new style mandate are incompatible. Its as simple as that. G & S messed up :-(
