Re: Rumour Mill
I won't start worrying until the owner, whether himself or through Mr Rice utters the immortal words..."Don't worry about the money."
Re: Culture Corner
Sad news of the death of David Lynch.
In a world where the word genius is casually thrown about, he was the real deal.
Re: New Manager Vote
Schumacher is a great choice (why I voted for him), he's a young-un at 40, learnt his trade at Everton, then Bury & worked wonders at Plymouth to get them to the Championship, he moved to Stoke & kept them up, but as is ever the way in the cutthroat world of Stoke they chose to sack him after 2 wins out of 5 at the start of his second season.
Re: Rumour Mill
RC did say we'd have the best entertainment in the league, but he said a lot of things, she's getting on a bit now but aren't we all?
Re: New Manager Vote
Have any of these managers got experience of coming in mid-season at clubs who have had a superb start to the season but just hit a slight lull (4wins out of 10ish sort of fare) and going great guns?
Or is that too specific?
Re: New Manager Vote
Schumacher won this league playing really attractive football with a similar system to ours. He also showed at Stoke that he wasn't afraid to eschew style for substance when it was really needed in the fight for survival. Harshly sacked there.
Re: New Manager Vote
Can we just take a pause to appreciate the use of the word "eschew" there?
