John McGovern ex Forest skipper on Clough "Would i go out for a drink with him?" Not a chance
" Would I run through a brick wall for him?" All day long
That's what you want
Winners
Look at PH Not in same league as Clough obvs But... when he came in at Scunny one of first things he did was get rid of Hamill...bad apple... you can f*ck off mate! Since then they have improved loads
Bit of old school never harmed a club

I'm sticking with my original theory; although they got 50 c.v.s they were all shiite and the board are desperately wishing Limbrick to fluke a win, so they can use it as the excuse to appoint him. And it has the added bonus of being the cheap and easy option. My evidence is that every time previously we've had advance warning as to who's been interviewed and who is likely to get it. This time ,apart from stockdale, there has been absolutely zero news or rumour
The board may have some idea about just keeping the ship afloat just long enough for some other fool Shutes to buy it ....... so they have no incentive to do anything exciting like spend money.

By the law of averages Fenty must pick one decent manager in his 20 year spell.

Would be fuming if AL got the job. Not even a single goal so far. Would not put it past Fenty though.

The longer fenty holds off getting someone in the more money he is saving. At a guess he and MJ wold have come to an arrangement of 3 monthe pay on leaving. just a guess but prob not far out. and fenty wont want to be paying double out if we are not in trouble..As he will see it no doubt. Hoping AL will come goodish in that time. AL has had some good teams to play while being in charge and i dont see us getting anything out of the scunts game , but i think we are just going to tread water for now no matter what

I sincerely hoped we might have someone in ahead of Saturday, which will be over a month since Jolley’s sacking. A month in which we haven’t scored.
I fear a humiliation on Saturday, the kind of which many of us will not have seen before. Bath, Chasetown et al were humbling - this, being Hurst and our old enemies, would be something on a different level.
I hope I’m wrong, I really do. But I’ve not seen much in the last two months to give me the confidence otherwise.

Wouldn't Hurst be doing us a big favour if they won comfortably on Saturday? Wouldn't it force Fenty's hand? Surely not even the arch inertia man could ignore that humiliation? Could he? The worst thing would be another blank draw and even a 1-0 win would not signify the start of a renaissance but both would more or less guarantee no change of manager until New Year at the earliest, and then it is "well let's see what he turns up in the transfer window ............ " and before you know it we are in February.

Problem is RRFC there will be nothing happening in the January transfer window... JF has already stated on tape that Jolley spukned all the cash in the summer. He states it will have to be "one out, one in" which is great, only we don't have a player in the squad we could offload because no one would take any of them!! So be it AL or a another who's manager, they will only has this squad to play with until 25th April.

To be fair to AL we should’ve scored at least 2 goals on Saturday. He can’t be blamed for 2 easy misses and a disallowed goal that looked ok to me

Bet Tisdale's hoping for a call from Brovers. Just a hop and a skip from his home town of Bath.
