    I bet his head is spinning with all the offers he has had since we fired him
    I understand Barcelona have made an approach but the big problem is he can not speak the language :confused::confused:

    You would have hoped so but can you see him getting the funding required

    And I doubt McCall would have ever got another job if we hadn’t come in

    Well after that gutless performance even I accept a play off place is a lost cause but still cant understand why Stuart made so many changes.

    no, but surely this time he has asked and had adequate answers. If the promises are not forthcoming during the close season he should call them out and leave

    What's that got to do with your comment about Bowyer getting Blackpool promoted (which I thought he was keeping as a secret by the way)

    You say that without a hint of irony.

    just in case you hadn’t noticed we just employed someone who was fired from his last two positions and wasn’t exactly turning offers down from top level or bottom level clubs.

    That's why I think we will be looking for yet another manager come the end of the season

    Write this season off, the team clearly isn't good enough. I've seen way too many games like today over the past 2 seasons to know the whole culture at the club is toxic. Start at the very top, this club needs direction and ambition. Don't even bother to think about the eleven on the pitch till this sorted out.

    Had to do this a few times. Actually it was fairly quiet down the middle. They were not that animated when they scored. Noticed the difference between the two sets of fans. City made loads of noise .......until the scored (against the run of play). Then it just went fairly flat.
    Felt we couldn’t dominate the midfield. Cooke was fairly anonymous, Devitt ran about a lot, but did little, Mottley-Henry was he really playing and Connolly was quite subdued and did little. Novak doesn't attack the space’.
    Perhaps a weird perspective of the game, as it was me and a friend swimming in the Shark Pool! o_O

    if he does walk my esteem for him will rise. If he is still here at start of the season I will presume what ever he was promised has been delivered and he should be held responsible for the results with no finger pointing up wards or backwards

    You missed the bit, ‘Very, very’. But we did behave ourselves (as we always do).

    I think McCall was just glad to get the offer. Lets be honest, he was never going to get offered another managerial job in the football league.

    I think some City fans did manage to get in the Salford end. D512F61B-A091-49D2-92D3-64DAE7E3BB96.jpeg

    Bowyer was out of his depth here. The problem is he shouldn't have been given the job in the first place and we sacked him far far too late.

    His recruitment was awful and he was just DULL!

    There is no way made McCall will walk out in the summer, who the hell would employ him if he did that. Let's be honest he's a very average manager and there is probably only Julian Rhodes who would offer him a job after his Scunthorpe failure. I hope for the clubs sake he succeeds but while I'm not at the @Norman Corner@Norman Corner end of our political spectrum I'm one of the doubters about him. I will guarantee he will still be our manager this August, how long he lasts into the season will be results driven as is always the case.
