Hill stated many weeks ago that his focus is the rebuild for next season.
I fully applaud this logical thinking.
Results, at the moment, are of zero consequence. If we lose every game by six – it just doesn’t matter. Let him experiment with what he’s got – especially where the youngsters are concerned.
I refuse to criticise until I see that this incredibly capable manager is unable to make this rebuild work. (Even then … can we pretend that restraints from on high have not stymied him?)
I really detest folks getting on the back of people doing their best in impossible circumstances.12 users thanked author for this post.
The less work to do a GK has – the fewer goals will be conceded over a season.
Without even a trace of exaggeration, Rory must have had three times the work to do of any typical mid-table GK.2 users thanked author for this post.
Well IA, I texted someone familiar with boardrooms and similar regarding what had happened and his unprompted response was, “He’ll be part of any consortium, then.”
I interrogated him further last night and he listed a number of interpretations of the actions but said that was the most likely.I listened to some complex logic which did make sense – but ultimately, it can only be supposition, of course.
My personal view was that Simon had seen that it was all such a dog’s breakfast that a man, known for his effectiveness in high powered roles, had simply escaped from what he may have considered to be a Putinesque situation.
Even so, interestingly, the pair of outlined pieces of creative imagination are not mutually exclusive.
I certainly predict that the chairman and his clan will be trying very hard to rid themselves of this turbulent football club and its grossly unappreciative fans.

The trouble is that some people make no allowances for bad situations.
Let me put it another way.
Let us imagine that you have a team which has four or five players each with a heavy plaster cast on an arm.
Now when that team loses – do we blame the manager? – If so – then why?On a similar line, Nuttall had minimal support again today. Some neat touches first half and worked hard but took stick from supporters.
Every single time we have a lonely young striker leading the line – we pillory him. We have fans undermining confidence. Do we never learn?1 user thanked author for this post.
I couldn’t disagree more, BS!
Fence painting brings: pride, self-satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment. It brightens up your environment and makes you feel good inside.Whereas, watching the Iron offers none of those things.

As for the podcast – if that were all about us just having heard him speak for the very first time – we could all feel uplifted.

What on earth was Alexander playing at? – Obviously not ‘obeying orders’ – as he got the order of the boot for it.

Odd game.
First thing and the most important thing – as a team, they were two divisions better than we were.For the first time in a while the central defence was abject.
Why so awful in defence? – Surely, the absence of Grant was like being smitten with a two by four about the head.
So many good bits amongst the horrific bits.
Disagreed with Hinds about ‘lack of effort’. A number of players performed well. The others were just not good enough.
Bang goes my theory that Taft is better not being alongside Manny.

2/10, IA.
Whole seasons can drift past and I don’t give a two or worse.1 user thanked author for this post.
In the NL we have a bevy of up and coming youngsters (provided we can hold onto them) AND a good handful will have picked up experience in a very tough environment this season.
GK has come of age – if we can keep him.
Delaney is our best CB but I can’t see him staying.
Onariase as a backup I can accept.
Do we want the new improved Millen – or do injuries scare us off?
It was the CM which largely did for us yesterday.
So many other random comments I could have made but we need a SPINE and players with PACE!
A few players with a touch of class would be rather pleasing.
Retaining and recruiting is not going to be a nice job. Stopping the slide is essential. Offer me mid-table next season and I’ll snatch your hands off now.
Consolidation has to be achieved.1 user thanked author for this post.
