Solihull (A) Match Thread

Quoted from Fillipe Noche

So it’s time to start looking at the new owners is it?

I wondered how long that would take.

Hey come on everyone stop panicking. We’ve got a great new civic pride, our community is now really engaged, the scotch eggs are amazing, our Chairman writes in the Guardian, and a new CEO who loves the limelight and is really photogenic.

With all of that, the football is secondary and we should be counting ourselves lucky

Wondered which pile of manure you’ve been hiding under. The air’s been fresher since you’ve been away.

You can go forth and multiply again.

Quoted from MuddyWaters

I’m far from a Fenty apologist but that’s not strictly true. JS even said that there was money left in the bank by the previous owners.

Not the same thing at all OC.

We’re still 3rd and 4 points off top . Ball cleared off the line at 1-0 . Would’ve been a decent point away from home against a good team regardless of the size of opposition in our eyes .
We’re going through a sticky patch but have got the players to stay in the top seven , the budget to add to the squad in January so it’s really not looking as bad as it’s being made out isn’t it ?

Quoted from Fillipe Noche

No Hagrid, I’ve never actually met the woman. But it strikes me that she’s breezed in here all celebrity like, and it seems to me that she’s loving every minute of that far too much.

We don’t need people like that on board. We know what happened last time we had a ten bob celeb in the club. It was all me me me.

I’ve got no problem with Jason and Andrew being the focus quite often. After all, they’ve put their money where their mouths are and have brought something to the table. And so they should be featured, and let’s face it, publicly accountable.

Thankfully Fenty has gone.

Quoted from DB

Your not suggesting this was your friend John Fenty?

Ah you beat me to it! 😆

Quoted from KingstonMariner

Well then if you’re talking about the good side this season, that should be to Hurst’s credit!

And you don’t remember rightly either. Only a couple of people said if we’re not challenging for promotion by Christmas Hurdt should go. One of them was probably you.

Tbh i have been in the camp that gave him a chance even tho i did not believe it was good for him to come back here..  I dont know whats wrong but the buck stops with him . and there was more than a few that . he has done nothing  .Whats his win rate  ?  

Quoted from Davec

Paul Hurst said he feels we did enough to win tonight

flipping deluded idiot, if anyone needs proof he is not the man for the job and should never have been re-appointed that comment says it all

Time Stockwoods and Pettits started concentrating on football matters instead of fannying about trying to impress and folk feel good off the pitch.

Quoted from dapperz fun pub

She’s managed to get 6k crowds in regularly in the space of a few weeks your boss/ mate/ brother never manage that in nearly 2decades. You clearly don’t like her for some reason

How long do you think that is going to last ? Anyway I suggest the early season form might have had something to do with that rather than the better catering, glass screen on the Youngs Upper and the nicey nicey approach of the new (not really football people) owners
A fan zone is not going to pack 'em in in January and February if the team is mid table

Easy not to care about the experience of fans attending games when you never flipping go.

Old Noche certainly knows how and when to poke the hornets nest. I suggest everyone ignores the relic.

We've lost some footy matches; it happens.

Short term blip in a long term re-build, or more serious signs of getting it wrong? The answer to that will become apparent over the next couple of months.

For me, the object this season was top 7, hopefully top 3 and winning the league was a long shot. We are still in the mix and PH has to find a way to win matches again. If he doesn't or can't, then have an inquest, but I suspect it will be a bumpy ride until January.

It's quite feasible we won't see another win for a while judging by current form and the standard of the upcoming opposition. Or we may just be surprised- that's the beauty of football.

There's always the next game.
