Neil Cox rightly or wrongly lambasted his players after they were beaten 4-1 by Morecambe this week....

......but bizarrely he dropped these pearls of wisdom in amongst his rant at his players

"Thankfully, we haven’t yet delved as far into the realm of farce as Grimsby Town. Players hosting ridiculous (yet fashionable) so-called “gender reveal parties” in breach of lockdown regulations? Check.

One player sent off for headbutting a team mate in an actual game? Check. Relegation? Well, it looks like going that way..."

I think they're fine for this season but they look like great contenders for next season to me.

He’s not wrong though is he


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,

Those quotes look like they are attributed to the jouranlist writing the article - not Neil Cox.

Just read it definitely written by someone claiming to be a journalist.

As distinct lack of professional class goes, I’d say that’s up there in the upper echelons of classlessness  

He ain’t going to be on a job much longer anyway

Just to be clear Hagrid, are you referring to Fillipe’s comment about classlessness or being out of a job, or both?

You and I and most of us here would say it is embarrassing to go out of the league for a second time

There is one man I can think of though who seemingly won't have the slightest bit of embarrassment as he walks away with his payback for "leading" us there

It's bizarre people actually think these comments are attributed to Neil Cox, they part of an article written by a 'Journalist' not an extract from an interview.

There you go making comments without actually reading the article.

Oh what an absolute professional, deflect detractors by having a go at someone else, you'd expect that comment from a supporter but not the manager.

On a similar level to a Chairman/ custodian telling Lincoln how to avoid relegation?

I unequivocally withdraw the above comment, I thought it was a quote from Neil Cox. I've now read the article and realise it is the reporter , actually stating facts. I'd rather support a team that has things going on than the number 1 boring club in Lincolnshire.Check.
