Brilliant Step, a team that would've won the league and the FA Cup? I love it.
Although there was a time, especially when O'Neil azlmost landed Gudjonsson (the Chelsea one).... Imagine how that might have changed things?!
I hate what happened too mate, truly. But he's doing a job now and the FA are satisfied with what he does with the U21's...
Prior to PT tooking over we had finished in the top ten in the premiurship for four consecutive seasons. Only four other teams had done than
Manure
Arses
Chealse
Liverpool
and little old leicester. That was one hell of an achievment
During MON's last season we feared nobody and beat most, no teams wanted to play us. (The Grinders, wehat an excelent name that was)
The we got Collymore, With stan I have no doubt that we had a team to that could beat anyone. We just needed a manager that appreciated the stans ability and was willing to work hard to keep stan in line. If PT had any brains he would have emplyed an anterage of bouncers and psyciatrists for stan. he was worth it.
MON knew what stan was worth and he would have got the best out of him. PT did not have an effing clue so he sacked stan. Thats a man that knows football talent when he sees it
Also PT did have the option to bring in Gudjonsson for 4.5 million, but he bought a second division donkey for 5.5 million, again, excelent bit of managment that was. He certainly knows how to pick them.
During PT first season we went eleven games without loosing a game. It was easy and we where top of the premiur and if MON had stayed I have not doubt, none at all, not even a little bit. That we would have won the premier and the FA cup and if you think differenty its probably because you where to young. MON learned from Cloughy and MON was going to repeat what Cloughy did. MON. knew it. read his book
As for PT managing the under 21's, He could do that before he came here and did a good job of managing the under 21's. That because selecting the best under 21's is easy, compared to managing a team with limited resources.
PT is a wanker and allways will be.
PS: Lennon was good, but he wanted out as soon as MON left and he played shite that season.
We did not start lossing until the 12th game when Flowers went of injured and PT started to play Rocye in goal and the rest is History.
The only thing PT was good at was blaming good players for AA inabilty to score. Effing Wanker. I hate him so much that, if hull come up I am going to sit behind him and abuse him all match.
Do I need therapy
