Neither did McKeown! I took it as they've played well this season

Ah fair enough, odd he didn't mention Collins then

Hopefully this statement isn't empty words...

WHS.

Some will look for any excuse to hit him with.

Good statement - no digs, just trying to unify.

All this statement does for me is offer an extremely worrying insight into Fentys mind. He genuinely believes we have a team that can kick on. He's either very naive or very stupid, we've got some okay players yes. However, we've got rid of our midfield, we played FOUR strikers yesterday because of this.

On top of that, the team is littered with journeymen and loanees.

Naive or stupid John, which one is it?

Whilst I am by now means a J.F. fan  we have to realise we are, for the present inextricably linked.

Whilst I feel he poor decision making is entirely responsible for our current position we will achieve nothing by pushing him into a corner  

The time has come to constructively engage with him to turn things around,the first pre-requisite is to get rid of Slade no matter how much we protest and make our feelings  known we are not going to bludgeon him into a decision.Let us by reason discussion and persuasion convince him as to why Slade has to go for the team to progress.

Every war has to end sometime.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

He is getting better PR advice I will give him that.

The small crowd were fired up by the protest, which lasted for part of the first half but then died as the team were pushed back by a very average side.

The rest is really fantasy land. I don't think anything seems to get through to him just how bad things are.

Wow.
Another fairly well scripted press release and one that doesnt point fingers and lay blame elsewhere.

Substance of it will no doubt have objectors but it appears some lessons are being learned at least.

Think the above post about PR dvice is correct. What does concern me though is that he says he would not use those words were he on record rather than off it. He should just have come out and said "hands up, am wrong and I apologise to anybody who may have taken offence at anything I said" By coming out with what he did say it leaves any official staement now open to interpretation as to whether or not he means it?


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.
