    So "We need to interview every experienced manager six or seven times" or whatever they said, excusing why it took SO LONG, and now we have...

    ... This.

    Wow.

    No words.

    Tell me where Blackpool and Charlton were five years ago, when the protests started (clue: above Huddersfield) that's the point I'm making

    It's a myth to think that protesting ever makes a difference as, at the end of the day, someone has to have money to make the change. Possible owners will run a mile if they think they have an unsettled set of customers, i.e. fans - hence why Blackpool constantly get nowhere

    I'll give you Coventry, even though they've not improved their position during this time, simply because they've genuinely had it hard for about 10 seasons

    Not saying the fans shouldn't be pissed off - but this idea that it's the noble thing to do and if only we all take our placards around to Edin's office it will all change, is naivety in the extreme

    They didn't work coaching the first team squad, that was Stuart and Kenny Black with Steve Banks taking the keepers, you post anything to justify you comment, they were not even involved when Grayson took over that was Glynn Snodin.

    LOL! Everyone noticed the 'since the weekend' bit from Edin.

    Basically, nobody wanted the job and so we asked around and the guy who serves tea at half time in the McCall suite was a bit interested, but then said no and then at the weekend Collins said he might be interested in the job, but only if the guy who sweeps up in the main stand didn't want the job.

    Come on @Fordy117@Fordy117 and @Ricc@Ricc now is the time for you to shine. As I’ve said on other threads, you want R&R out and to protest about it.

    Create a thread about it and get organised. Take the lead.

    Simple said - put up or shut up.

    Where's that stat come from?

    You might think the reaction on here, twitter and the hilarious T&A comments section proportionately reflects the fans

    It doesn't. You nearly always get the extreme negative posting comments. The fans who wanted better, but are prepared to give this manager a go and keep faith in the board are likely still to be the majority

    You only have to listen to comments at the matches, its amazing how many just turn up for the match and have no interest in what the 'chattering' is outside of them

    They'll be surprise, disappointment - but little more

    I think we all should calm down. Michael Collins has shown he is more than up to the job, he has led our under 18's to a frankly excellent 10th out of 13 teams.

    If that doesn't make him a leading candidate I don't know what does.

    champions by christmas.
