    At least he played for Wrexham. He's getting the games he needs.

    He just needs a decent pre season!!!

    One goal against Blackpool got the kid a 3 year deal, only Rahic could have done a deal like that with a straight face.
    I bet his agent couldn't believe it when they were summoned to Rahic's office and confronted with that very good offer.

    Please don’t patronise me Rod. I’m not daft.

    I’m unfairly treated and punished by the moderating team, and because no one has pm’d you to report it it isn’t happening? Okay.

    it’s only my response when I’m challenged by mods, because they like to ban me from threads, PM me warnings and threaten to ban me, but when I respond to question it and defend myself I get ignored.

    he wasn’t a poor manager in his second spell. That’s just a silly thing to say.

    Seriously, the word kn0b is censored on here? Jesus wept. This place makes mumsnet.com look edgy.

    Iv'e had similar experiences. I said 'Dûcking great!" once in a completely harmless, none abusive context and it was edited out because I used a naughty word. I then received a notification explaining how it was unacceptable but I can opt for a more PC alternative If I wish, so I changed it to "bloody great!". I mean what even was the point in that?Something similar also happened a couple of days ago in the politics thread where my perfectly fine post was once again needlessly edited.

    The mods seems to take great joy in modding this forum and giving others a telling off. They are part of the reason this forum is devoid of any humour and why other good posters don't frequent as often.

    He worked in the same situation as Stuart, but he doesn't seem to get much credit.

    He came in as head of recruitment pretty much the same time Stuart did; they assembled the squad that nearly got promoted and hung around in the play offs in spite of Rahic's influence.

    I wondered if he will be remembered as having done an excellent job, particularly given what we know about the levels of interference from the board room at the time?

    The first spell certainly highlighted what a rookie Stuart was. However, his second spell illustrated how 'improved' he'd become. OK, certainly not a great Manager, but much much, more than 'poor', IMO. To work with the team, and 'put up' with ER against him actually showed how good he was. Not the best, but far from a poor choice.
    The big difference for me is the fact that many of PP's signings will be remembered for years to come, yet only one or two of Stuarts. PP's 2013 achievement won't be bettered for many years to come.
    A point to note ........ Neither PP or S Mc actually managed a relegated BCAFC team ! ;)

    That season Stuart got us to Wembley lets not forget that he inherted the basis of a very good side from the previous manager, he added to it and took us one spep further which was an achievmet in its self when we consider the back ground conditions he worked under
    His football at times was very cautious to say the least none more obvious than his Wembley team selection of both starting his 11 and his subs.
    Maybe poor was a little harsh but when compared with Parkison he defiantly comes second IMO even accepting the constrains Stuart worked under with regards the mad German.

    Presumably Jurgen Klopp is a poor manager by the strange working in your head.

    After all, he hasn't achieved what Bob Paisley did ......

    Only in your world @NorthernnMonkey only in your world

    Stupid comparison but not unexpected from yourself.

    Bob Paisley did it many years before Klopp arrived at Liverpool, where as Stuart was our manager following Parkinson's departure.
    Give your head a shake.

    Doesn't seem to matter how poor strikers are,
    playing for us, once they move on, they start
    scoring for fun!

    It's us,we must coach it out of them....
