Onwards and upwards. The profile of the club has risen over the last 9 months. I wish him well. Won't get to ott about it because I'm pretty sure Murphy and Mowatt leaving will be a tripple whammy. So not going to waste any nervous energy right now. Up to board to get this summer spot on otherwise we could be next season's Sheffield Wednesday
o/t The Hawthorns at 550 ft is the highest football ground in England/Wales ( don't know about Scotland - are you there Ian?) VI - you've made a mistake leaving Barnsley - but Good Luck in your new job.
Does YT’s response regarding the length of time before an appointment suggest someone is already lined up?
Honestly, I think it's weak. One day someone is going to have the ba**s to stick around a few seasons and back themselves. Going to West Brom isn't backing yourself, its taking the first bit of cash that's waved in front of you.
VI did an unbelievable job. Deserves his chance to move up (if that's how it turns out). I won't miss vertical football unless we turn to a sideways and backwards possession game.
You've got to admire what he achieved last season and the way he went about it....how he made us hard to beat the never say die attitude of the lads the organisation and the 5th place spot in the league plus his stubbornness to change tact when it was calling out for the ball to be played on the deck...yet we stuck to the virtual high press football he enjoyed....so a massive thanks for the happy memories Today he joined one of our rivals..... Tomorrow is another day VAL WHO....
Thank you soooo much for that unforgettable season big Val. Not always pretty but the way he had us applying the team was outstanding. Good luck in your new venture big lad, ill be very interested in how he works with better (x prem) players.
