Too long never read, can someone summarise

You turned in to Chief Sitting Bull, Kenny lad?

 

[KenyonLedford]

No, I was going to make the answer longer beginning with "me:" but then suddenly grew exhausted. I thought about
correcting it, but I don't know this 'milky' fella and decided he wasn't worth the time.

It's weird talking to you and you're not an old woman flipping the bird

 

[BlueStevie35]

We never should of appointed Samuel Allardyce

We're teetering on the edge of the Abyss, a potential "Sunderland 'til I die" oblivion, we might now be getting a points deduction for FFP - got to get that grammar correct though.


Quite right too

 

[Mr K.Dilkington]

Think I'll take two chickens.

If that is what your furrowed brow gleaned from it while slowly moving your lips then that is what you gleaned from it.

"If the board had any confidence in their OWN non-suckness, they would stick with the
manager they hired and have the courage of their convictions to ride things out and give
the players a chance to produce or perish under ONE system."

And "non-suckness"? You're really in no position to judge others.

 

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Well, this is lively.

Our players are chickens and it's eggshausting

Mate I didn't want to do this, but you've been reported to the voices in my head. they will be conferring about you at odd hours.

Players need the continuity of one coach and one system. One belief and one expectation.
Each new coach says, "I know you used to do it THAT way, that's why you are terrible. But
it isn't your fault. Now we'll do it THIS way and you won't be terrible."

After Three games lo and behold they ARE still terrible. These players have been terrible
and killed the last 20 managers or whatever the number is now.

If the board had any confidence in their OWN non-suckness, they would stick with the
manager they hired and have the courage of their convictions to ride things out and give
the players a chance to produce or perish under ONE system.

When you change managers after EVERY loss how are we to tell which players are worth
keeping? Which ones play bad because they're trying to fit in the new expectations? Which
ones are not going to be worth keeping no matter the manager?

Have all these managers been THAT bad? Or are our players just that bad? Would one of
those managers have succeeded by now had our board and fans shown the nerve to
ride things out?

This isn't a dice game. You can't just keep rolling dem bones again waiting for the winning
numbers to show up. We don't have any money left to put on the table!

I'm sure our board is biting their nails right now wondering when to throw Frankie overboard
and bring in the next guy to fail. Frank was the wrong choice to begin with. It's like we
bought a hot looking car on the internet and now we're stuck trying to get the thing to
run and our mechanic doesn't take credit.

Do your homework, bring in the right man. Let him bring in his players. Let him work
his system all season long and see where we are. Because this way there is no way
of telling who is at fault.

I do like what the one poster said. "Win our home games and we'll be fine" I go with that
and let's do things right this summer and all next campaign.

Can you summarize this? I don't like long and drawn out illustrations of simple matters.

I gave it a succinct summarization earlier for another mouth breather. Ask to see his notes.

I dated that lass for a bit as well.
