I'd like to say something possitive about Mattis......

Kyel Reid?

probably the most one footed player we have, on the right? Again, no guarantee that wouldve worked either.

 

We already had McCann so why sign Mattis?

Why not sign some cover for out wide, or is that too obvious?

 

Can't see any reason.

Don't think he's a bad laiker messen, but still don't know why he's here.

 

Agreed , Kyel Reid on the right is not the best idea.

Why not go with a 4-3-3 if you dont have the players to play 4-4-2.</p>

With Hayes and Reid playing wide of Nardiello , with Togwell , Howard and McCann in the middle.</p>

 

Davey prefers his own signings, obviously. nt

 

Got to be a better choice than Togwell being there, surely?

He looked so out of place it was untrue.

 

Ask Gord.

Davey didn't sign McCann.
He did sign Mattis though.

Have a guess which one got a start on Setdi.

Unfortunately - you can't unplug this game of Gord's fantasy football 2007 & start again if we go down.

 

Davey must not be a fan as he has replaced him already with Mattis.

A very puzzling signing.

 

Presumably because the manager at the time wanted him.

Oh, we didn't have one.

 

RE: Agreed , Kyel Reid on the right is not the best idea.

4-3-3 is on page 37 of the big book of coaching. Think Davey's only up to page 34.

 

RE: Ask Gord.

How was Jokewell AM?

 

We needed a player to put his foot in

Wallwork showed that. we tried to get Williamson, Mattis is a similar type player. McCann is cover for Howard at the moment, or rather, competition for places. How long had we been saying that we had 11 players and no one to challenge them for their positions?

Moan, doom, gloom, Davey out, blah blah blah. Fickle.

 

Page 33:

"How to turn an attractive football team into a pile of monkey shat".

I think he's simply doing what he knows.

 

Not fickle at all , Mattis looks anything but a foot in merchant if Saturday is to go by.

Haven't changed my views once since Davey took over , so there is no fickleness on my part.</p>

The fickleness is from the fans who wanted Ritchie out , then after to getting served up even worse ***** under Davey are telling everyone else how much better it is.</p>

 

Twas a good laugh.

I got the following into a ten minute interview:

(1) Blackpool Tower
(2) Scrambled jets
(3) Airedale Terrier
(4) Border Collie
(5) Robbie in midfield

That's all I can remember - but the farmer taped it, so I'll have a listen later.
According to him I sounded like Howard Donald ... kinell fire.

Andy Firth was sound though - decent bloke.

I also enjoyed him introducing Mr Knowles as "Rib Noodles".
Class.

They have a predictions league.
I chose Preston to win 2-1 with a Preston defender (Alexander) scoring first.
I wasn't that far away really.

 

RE: Page 33:

He's doing what any new manager of a relegation threatened team does - try and stop leaking goals.

 

RE: Page 33:

It's working.

 

RE: Twas a good laugh.

get it on mp3 and mail it me. how the **** did you get airedale terrier in?

 

What a load of garbage.

Mattis "puts his foot in"?
Knackers on a stick.

He's the furthest thing from a defensive midfielder I've ever seen.
He was the furthest midfielder forward for the entire match.
Howard was doing his "McPhail role" from last season ... which almost makes his presence pointless.

He's not as **** as he looked on Setdi ... but he's not a defensive midfielder.

The team selection on Setdi was baffling.

Anthony Kay.
"Here's the captains armband".

 

Well ...

... he asked what I thought of the Manager & new signings.
I said something like "We'll all get behind the Manager because we are BFC fans ... but he is an Airedale terrier when it was obvious the fans wanted a Border Collie".

I also said Mattis looked decent in league two - but he was being thrown in at the deep end ... so he'll sink or swim.
Unfortunately he should've come out for the second half in scuba gear.
