I tend to defend managers coz I believe that the managerial merry-go-round never helps a club. The general rule of thumb is that the more managers you sack – the worse it gets! (Indeed. Look at the case of one Scunthorpe Utd.)
I am supporting the Vice Admiral for different reasons. He is the best I’ve seen in years. Inspirational.
He’s got: players moving off the ball – something not seen since the latter days of Hurst. Following a plan. Playing for and covering each other. Working really hard.
In addition, he has got the best out of a pair of CBs who had been looking quite ragged.
Beestin and Butterfield playing well. Young uns rising to the challenge and so much more.
If we hadn’t been playing pretty much all the top sides every week for a small eternity – would certainly have had plenty more points to show.
A month ago he was saying that new players were being lined up. (Hope they haven’t all gone elsewhere!)
Must be given the chance to showcase his talents. BTW – he never impressed me all that much as a player.
