    Teflon Abbo, at least Mason had the courage of his conviction to walk.
    Abbo could be a politician the way he points fingers at everyone else and accept zero responsibilty .
    Anoher charlatan in our recent history

    I'm sure McCall was fully involved in all players brought to the club...........just a minute who was it that arrived at the training ground unannounced with boots slug over his shoulder was that Kai or the German keeper ;).

    Look, McCall is here and he needs time but the honeymoon period is over.

    However, Nathan Jones on Quest tonight can't help but think if Rhodes wasn't just about season tickets he would have been in the frame.

    With regards to Bradford, not a thing. Unless I missed it. Only thing he commented on the Newport v Bradford game, was his happiness for Michael Flynn getting back to winning ways

    He should have been given the job. Rhodes just turns to the default option of bringing back McCall as it’s popular.

    Didn't you stay up to watch the boxing mate? Fury hammers AJ for me if they ever get it on.

    Anyway, Jones didn't say anything. I just think if Rhodes wasn't thinking short term and season tickets that Jones would have been a serious contender for the job here.

    Already talking about sacking stuart is pure bedlam. Was saying this with bowyer and im saying it with stuart.

    Give them time. This expection to get good results as soon as a new manger comes in is just stupid. I'm giving him two transfer windows myself.

    Bowyer didn't need time as he was the wrong manager from the off.

    I hate it when people say this manager needs 2 transfer windows. Do you think that we can afford or will afford to get quality players in?

    For me we do have to see changes quickly, we need to see increased attacking play, we need to see effort, we need to see fight, we nee to see high press. You can't just say we need more transfer windows as can next Jan then what? Rebuild again with a new manager- too late!

    McCakl does need time but he has to show he can kick us on again and make a difference.

    Love it

    Managers need to make changes quickly, can’t say they need transfer windows and we can’t wait until next January.......but

    McCall needs time!

    Love it

    Like the Illuminati the Cult of McCall is everywhere.

    He needs time to prove himself again mate.

    In my head I want to see changes now. I am not having him complaining we have a big squad but need practice matches to see the players because for the last 4 games he's named near ebough the same squad.

    For me we need to give him at least until Oct/Nov but if it's not working a decision needs to be made quickly. We can't be messing about like we did with Bowyer when many people knew he had to go.

    Absolutely agree.

    What I was trying to highlight was the double standards that are applied because the manager is Stuart McCall.
