    ...True, if said manager had messi, ronaldo, pirlo et al playing for him and he still had his team in the bottom three then maybe, just maybe he might be considered crap. However, lets put another scenario... lets suppose the manager was forced to buy 11 lumps of lard because of long-term financial constraints and told to keep his club in the league. The said manager, with only animal by-product to work with would struggle against athletic, over-paid human beings who would be able to run around and kick a ball. Even if the said manager tried to improve the quality of the lard on a budget and with only lard wages being available the lard he bought would still not be good enough. Only over a very long time span would the said manager manage to inter-breed the lard pieces and be able to mould a team that started growing limbs, capable of running about. Some managers aren't miracle workers with lard and even though they can select their own lard they have to shop at cheap lard shops or even go cap in hand to the butcher and loan lard in the short-term.

    When some fans slag some managers off for having lard I say again that the slagging is not necessarily a good thing. It misses the real issue.

    p.s. I am not fatist in any way

    Keith hill might have signed a load of lumps of lard but for some reason he insists on putting the lard in the sink instead of the chip pan. He's signed some vinegar too and instead of putting it on the chips he's pouring it into his cup of tea. He's signed a tin of aldi special buy mushroom soup which he has happily emptied into his bathtub instead of a bowl and instead of putting a slice of bread either side of his cheese and ham slices he's lined them all up in a neat little line in front of each other making the sandwich much thinner, less effective at being a sandwich and in actual fact just a load of disorganized mess on a plate.

    Dont forget that Hill was given the job because of his reputation as a lard converter, in my opinion we need to swap 5 or 6 lumps of lard for a couple of lumps of lurpack.

    Quite right - too much Saki and over-devotion to the Emperor

    Thats just the sort if ***** keith would come out with

    Just to confuse everyone and get them talking about what it means rather than discussing the real issue that he is doing a **** job and hes flapping about like a fish out of water.

    For me if we dont beat blackburn today the don should come down to the dugout at full time with his p45.
