    You just make things up as you go along. I suppose Greg Abbott is a liar as well?

    And I give him credit for that. It was a good achievement and nothing would have given me greater pleasure than seeing Stuart take us up. But he didn’t. He then started well but when things went wrong he couldn’t turn it the same as before and I think that his greatest strength is his biggest weakness. He is to close to the players great for creating team spirit and togetherness when things are going well but when the whip has to be cracked it doesn’t work.

    Where did I say that I said Robinson was a development squad player with different coaches I doubt he would have an input on Robinson and the others Abbott brought them in

    He wasn’t given chance to turn it around. He might have done but at the first sign of a dip he was fired.

    Don’t you find it surprising that there is so many unsubstantiated rumours coming from so many people who like to keep their names secret

    if that's the case then why did he only mention 3 players (Law, Taylor, McGowan) as being his own signings in his interview with WOAP?

    I don’t know whether the rumours are true or not but peddling them serves no purpose. The problem will always be the same; some have heard the same snippet and agree and others just want to ignore that there may be some truth in them.

    For what it’s worth, I was in the latter group until it blew up in my face around 12mths or so. I denied the rumours circulating on here on the eve of our P.O. game against Fleetwood. Turns out it was all true all long and Rahic (even then) wanted McCall out because they did not see eye to eye.

    So for me, I take every rumour of this type as a pinch of salt, or should that be a dessert spoon of salt...! ;)

    I didn’t mean they were his own picks but as part of the committee nobody was signed without his agreement

    so are you accepting that his say in recruitment was limited?

    Great post Dave but you missed off the very best quote from those articles and I mentioned it just after McCall’s sacking.

    >>> Latest figures revealed that 70 managers lost their jobs last season with 56 sackings. Parkinson, now approaching his five-year anniversary at the City helm, is the fifth-longest serving in the English game.

    “It’s unbelievable to be there so long and very positive,” added Rahic. “But it’s the same in Germany where coaches only last one or two years.

    And are these clubs that often change managers successful? I don’t think so.” <<<

    He didn't. His words were 'Taylor and McGowan were the two I really wanted'. He then talked about Taylor being the best player for Peterboro against us, last season.
