    Situation wasn't handled in the best way possible he says. How many times have we heard that :/

    So if we'd have played like we did that day, and Leeds got two injury time penalties and we drew 2-2, they'd have got rid of Flicker. If we'd played *****, and scraped a win via a last minute own goal of comedic quality, they'd have kept Flicker.

    ******* lunatics.

    So Seriously the club made a decision on the basis of one game - dumbfounded.

    Its problably for the best though as I dont think Higgy would have kept us up last season and he has change to gain experience and maybe come back at a better time

    But it's been all the managers we've had recently that have been the problem. Each of them.

    Jeez and I thought 4 months after saving us last season was bad.

    Coin tossers.

    I'd heard this (about Higgy and him not getting the job) from another source but I didn't believe it at the time. Gobsmakced.

    Good old donald...

    The whole manager hunt was a complete farce and im 100% sure it was driven by opinion on here. When odriscoll turned us down Butcher was touted on here and he got interviewed. Then Higgy and then when we beat leeds they dropped higgy and put flicker in charge who then went on to pretty much put the club over a barrel to make his and the players lives a living luxury - not to mention re-signing all the muppets that got us into the **** in the first place.

    And dont get me started on John Stones :(

    I'm pretty certain everything this season has been driven by opinion on here. Anything that is suggested on here enough times gets implemented, and they have mentioned that they read this board.

    I agree with all that, except I like the youtube vids. Unless it's a player that's doing it instead of training, I don't see how it hurts performances.
