Best Place in my Life

Quoted from devs

Funny how when Hurst brought on a defensive sub and we conceded he got slaughtered
Ollie does it and it's "ah well, never mind, fair play for him taking responsibility!!!"

The love in is strong - love is blind

the difference being ;

Hurst - " i dont agree that bringing Danny Parslow on effected the game and cost us 2 points"

Ollie " i cost us the points by going defensive, i should have brought a striker on"

Exactly. Hurst would never admit he made a mistake or in fact many of the our recent managers. Olly, on the other hand , admits he made one and holds his hands up to it. It's refreshing to hear a manager say "I got it wrong" as opposed to the majority who blame everything but themselves.

And it isn't certain it made a difference anyway, could have been a draw still with cardwell on the pitch. Could have even been a defeat. And likewise if he'd left it unchanged. It's not as if Hewitt gave the foul away to allow them to score.

‘Best place in my life’ seems a bit of a dramatic title for a thread.

I’m very optimistic compared to how I felt a few weeks ago, though it needs to be remembered that the Salford win needs to be credited to Anthony, and there’s three weeks of the window to see what recruitment can be done.

For a change, there’s a buzz. You feel that there’s something more than a managerial change happening. But it must be tempered with the reality that we’ve had many false dawns in the recent past. However, this does feel different.

Old Codger I think Pete was cross-quoting Ollie himself, may be wrong though.

Watch out! Kim Il Dicko will have you sent to a re-education camp.

I was sort of waiting for that! True. Slapped wrist.

I'm just glad we have an enthusiastic manager that likes to play attacking football. It helps that he has a high profile and can attract better quality players to give us a go. They are more likely to want to come here and play for a manager that has helped others to raise their game and climb up the pyramid, than they are for someone like Jolley.

Some managers just have the force of personality to get others to buy into what they are doing, and make unfashionable clubs more appealing.

If IH can get us out of our seats a bit more than previous managers could, then that'll do for me. If we lose, i want it to be 2-3 instead of the inevitable and all too familiar 0-1 bore fest.
