Indeed couldn't agree more the recruitment in the Jan window is looking better and better to me the options we have now are genuine threats not just a roll of the dice to see if it works. We'll see Orient style performances more and more now I think but as you say I suspect T&S Will be putting the graft in to give us a way to counter it.

 

The saddest thing is that our previous failings in the period between the Stuart leaving the second time and the third time, are probably down to either lazy management or dinosaur management. Grayson has proved in his job at Sunderland, here, Blackpool and now at Fleetwood to be the latter, Stuart (3rd spell) was the latter, Bowyer the latter.

I've totally discounted the former leader of the IRA (Michael Collins) and Hopkin I think was lazy management because he didn't research teams enough. When he did (and we played a 4/2/3/1 or 4/3/2/1 in that purple patch around Christmas we were more than good enough to stay up.

 

This is why T&S are such a breath of fresh air for us. They come with new coaching and tactical ideas, but also a thirst to learn, game on game, to look anew at what our players' capabilities can achieve and how best we can use their talents. This thorough attention to detail is not what you get from dinosaur managers who, despite being mediocre at best in their managing careers, continue to throw the same old shit at the wall. Y'know, if T&S do ultimately 'fail' - and I'm not sure what the measure of that would be - they've brought new thinking into the building. And Ryan Sparks is smart enough to see that.

 

O's sacked their Manager tonight!.

 

It had been a long day....I'm good and well done on today's win

 

In fairness, although the goals were sloppy, we still restricted them to only 3 shots on target and one of those was the penalty. On another day we'd have easily come away with at least a point.

 

O!

 

Calling folk idiots for having an opinion, strange perception of life and living you have.
