Jolley interview

We had 14 points from 11 games last season at the end of September and a GD of -4. We have 5 from 8 now and -10 GD. We have to win the next 3 games to equal last season's effort, yet everyone says we are definitely a better team  

What beats me is how a financial banker or what ever..with a few , what seem to be useless badges can tell seasoned  so called pro footballers how to play, Its like a gas man telling me how to re wire a house , His  experiance is virtually nil  and will be seen as just that by the players.. some have said that he has lost the dressing room and players are not doing as he says,, am beginning to wonder if he ever had it this season. Its showed through in todays interview that he didnt realy know what to say , and i dont think for one minute he knows what to do

just watched the interview. Can talk without saying alot

I take it when you say "some" that refers to people who are not in and around the dressing room? The "useless badges" are internationally recognized and according to most former pros or experienced managers really difficult to earn.  

Ask yourself this are you a supporter or a fan? If it's the former then do what you do best get behind the manager and the side if it's the latter carry on getting on the backs of people who will be working really hard to get things right.

He's proved himself and worked his way up to get to consideration for this job. I have a lot more respect for people like him (and Slade) who weren't pro-footballers and have had to prove themselves working their way up through the leagues. Just because someone was good at kicking a football and can talk knowledgeably in front of a camera doesn't mean they have mastered the art of management (e.g. Gary Neville).

1 yes been said on here a few times,
2  Supporter ? if you mean someone that has been going since before they put the current floodlights up  then yes....and i dont doubt for one minute that people are working hard to put things right, just it is plain that it is not working and all these badges are as much use as putting an ashtray on my motorbike .....

By this logic managers like José Mourinho  and Roy Hodgson would by excrement while Paul Gascoigne would be managing Barcelona.

Why o Why o Why do we persist leaving no  one up  when we concede a corner? Personally this infuriates me, its just nonsense!, i played long  enough to know if you leave one up, your opponents will bring two back, if you leave no one up
you have no outlet and the ball comes straight  back, not rocket  science Mr Jolley, you are no better than that idiot Slade in that respect.

Interesting fact Rob.

Trouble is last season we got rid of our best players mid-season. Although we were already on the downward slope that made it irreversible.
