Most liked posts in thread: Martin Drury WTF?

I would extremely worried if we appointed Drury. Yes it would be great to prove a substantial amount of fans wrong. It would be an enormous risk to take when the fans are already feeling we do not have enough resources to make it in league 1.

 

Lots of immature posters looking daft now. They took one little, daft rumour and ran with it.

Never mind lock the thread, lock those accounts out. Not grown up enough to have an account.

 

Absolutely spot on...ive bought my season ticket because i want it to benefit the club but wont be going to every game and after 60 years of supporting the club I dident think i would ever say that...
At the moment most city fans have there chins on the floor we need a lift but the sounds coming out of the club don't inspire confidence I really hope these two in charge prove me wrong for the sake of our club.

 

I’d wish him well if he got the job. But, we’d be an absolute laughing stock, and it wouldn’t do him or us any good at whatsoever...I almost want it to be true, just to watch the meltdown, but I’m not sure I’m so far down the “couldn’t give a *@?$” road, just yet.

 

Unfortunately they've sent a life-long seasoned hard core supporter to the brink of couldn't give a feck anymore. I won't go over that brink, i'll pull back. However, how I wish somebody with common sense could take the club from them.

 

Stop now Park. It's silly.

Nobody is saying that he's 100% guaranteed to be a failure, just that given his profile it's by far the most likely outcome.

People are judging him on his results (they're shit) and whether he developed players (he didn't) and to expect any other outcome is just being positive for the blind sake of it.

 

Oh this thread is comedy gold. The local knuckle draggers foaming at the mouth because some idiot misheard a rumour and a flurry of bets were placed.

fecking brilliant......

 

Funny thing is some actually went for it, some on here actually thought it wouldnt be a bad appointment!!!

 

I’m done here. Park is seriously trying to find positives of possibly appointing Drury. He’s the only one but Jesus he’s deluded.

 

I'm sorry but if we appoint from within i wont give the current board any credence what so ever.

 

I mean... There's appointing from within - usually your number two - and then there's appointing a coach who isn't even your number two...

And never has been...

And actually has previous....

And actually did fail already...

At non league level...

Yeah, this is a wind up that further illustrates how clueless the bookies are (not that they care, because each duff bet is money in the coffers).

Do NOT take the betting odds seriously

 

Bit embaressing mate I gave her a £5 note and there were several guys behind waiting to put bets on as she gave me my £4.50 change .

 

I know how a bookmakers work, that has no relevance to some forum members dictating what people can and can't speculate on.
Knuckle draggers was it, seems your bloomers were the ones in a twist.
Calm down, stop being rude and enjoy the diversity of opinion

 

No chance Fordy is going to be our new manager?

 

We've already had this debate over in the manager rumours thread

 

Sometimes the bullying on these forums is simply wrong

 

They'll wake up when the club hits the wall.

 

He has a reasonable resume for a coach, or possibly even the development squad head coach if he's done really well (which I haven't noticed...)

Assistant, possibly, at a stretch, but that would be a heck of a promotion.

Head coach of Bradford City, though?

Absolutely ridiculous.

If a chairmen has designs on such a wild move, he should have been laying the foundations months ago, promoting the guy in the media, and highlighting all his successes. That way it wouldn't sound so stupid.

But they haven't.

Which, again, tells you it's a silly rumour.

 

Thank god for that. Close the thread.
