    I hate to do this, but Brittain has confirmed what I said in my original post. Another concern that was ridiculed. I originally said the players have been given a play how you want freedom with no clear guidelines. Brittain tonight confirming the forwards are playing off the cuff. It stinks.

    You was/are right. Can tell Britain hasn't been playing for him. You think MS will be sacked tonight?

    Haha! Not quite! I do stand by my post though. And think realistically you need to at least give a new manager until Christmas until you can make a fair judgement.

    I get everyone will say we’ll be down by then but we probably won’t be and if it looks like we might be I’m fairly sure we won’t have to worry because I (Paul Conway) would have already sacked him if that were the case!

    Would you care to bump it now or would you like a few more weeks of utter garbage being served up by Schopp first.

    Ok, you were right. Not even YT has been back on reminding us how many games we've played.
    He has to go. It's absolutely mind boggling how he is still in a job. More lives than a cat. SCHOPP OUT! and take Vic and Oduour with you.

    It's astonishing to read this post now with the benefit of hindsight, particularly seeing the reaction to it at the time it was posted. It was a brave thing to post at the time, as the response to it that followed would have been inevitable, and entirely predictable, but it has proven to be undoubtedly the most prophetic post I can recall seeing on this Board.

    Kudos to @Robert_Goulet for calling it out at the time.

    Maybe Robert Goulet is the pen name of Bobby Hassell? (or equivalent)

    I was one who said it was highly pessimistic but actually it was spot on.

    Definitely someone with reliable contacts within the club, at the very least.

    Absolutely. Some mentions of things we couldn't possibly have seen from the outside at the time it was posted in pre season.
