    He looks terrible, I think he was saying he couldn’t say anything because he wasn’t composed. I agree this not fair that he should be in this position

    Why the sympathy for Abbo and the hounding of the other two?
    Abbo is as much to blame, if not more, with his poor recruitment these last 2 summer's, and now part of the coaching team

    Abbott hurts as much as we do of that I don’t doubt, equally he’s trying his best. Would I prefer someone who cares less but is more effective? Yeah probably, the fact he’s propping up two dummies isn’t his fault.

    Any measured response apart from "we're shit and everyone currently at the club is out of their depth"?

    In what way does he look ill? He doesn’t look ill to me. I know he has been ill but he’s looks pretty well considering what he’s been though.

    How many of his targets must get kicked back by rahic

    It must be frustrating as hell when he nails a target only to be thrown out over wage demands etc

    To me he looks completely drained and fed up, like he'd rather be anywhere else at the minute

    Sean Scannell?..reportedly paid a sizeable transfer fee for him, and he hasn't come here for peanuts, that's for sure. Mind you, that was probably a Collins signing anyhow.

    Have you knowledge or evidence that a realistic target of his was doomed because we couldn't match his wage demands?

    I posted this yesterday on the 'Fleetwood Mission Impossible' thread. It seems appropriate as a response to your question:

    "Greg has, through his service to the club over the years, earned himself a lot of credit. Because of that, he has, so far, avoided a lot (but certainly not all) of the flack directed at the owners and other coaching staff.

    Given the way things are going, I'd be delighted if Stuart got him out of this club, before too much of the vitriol is directed towards him."


    I'm not saying he is blameless (we don't really know the answer to that), but he deserves some respect.

    He looks shocked and not really with it. He might have wanted to speak, but then decided against it.
