My Eighth Penneth

I have to say, it's been a long while since I typed anything of any substance on here, been bemused by the whole situation for a couple of months now. But I feel i've got to have a stab, all the other youths are doing it at the minute, so why not, hey? (sorry poor joke, R.I.P. and all that).

Anyway, back to the champagne football that Ollie has been serving up. Worried. Very worried.

We are worse than we have been under any manager since perhaps Craig Levein's last month or so. This chap's a motivator and yet he's managed to de-motivate a squad that was already very fragile. What Holloway we thought was going to bring to the table was a knack of getting players to punch above their weight. We might have massive problems in this team, but there's still some quality amongst it. Yet we've got worse. We've proven that we don't have a mean defence at all, unless we play 7 defenders and at least 5 of those play across the back with the 2 others having a party in the mouth in the middle. We cannot score goals, but then that's been the problem all season so to be fair to Holloway he's not caused that problem.

I just cannot see where we go from here? Changing the manager probably isn't going to help, but Holloway must shoulder a little bit of the blame for what's happened since he's taken over. We're actually looking less likely to score than we did under Megson and that for me, is unforgiveable. I've always been worried about Holloway's tactical nouse, but I thought his natural ability to get the players motivated would at least make us competitive in this league, but so far we're a million miles away from even some of the football we served up under Rob Kelly (dare I say!!!).

It will be interesting to see what Ollie does this month in the transfer window. Myself, I think if we get a right winger, and 2 central midfielders who can attack, pass and defend in tandem, a new goalie and a left back, then there's no reason what so ever why we cannot be a top 12 side at this level. But I think we should be about there already without any incoming faces, this league is full of shit houses, I cannot believe how much of a shambles we are.

As i've already said, changing managers again, I couldn't face it. What's the point? Who would we get and will they really make any difference? Just like will a few new players actually make much of a difference on the grand scheme of things? I'm struggling for ideas, it's 4 seasons we've been scampering about the relegation zone. There's not many teams that continue to scrape by without taking the plunge, I fear we don't have the luxury of thinking we'll be alright. We look more clueless than we've ever looked before and being a massive Milan Mandaric advocate, I have to say, he's not made a blind bit of difference in terms of making us a success. I hope that won't continue for long, but to be quite frank i'm at the point where i'm starting to not give a **** any longer, which was exactly like I was when we had The Foxes Trust and the other goobers in charge.

Let's face it. The whole club is filled with cretins. A takeover and it's still full of them. It's almost like putting on a fresh pair of boxers during a 5 day stint of this pissing out of your arse and mouth virus. It won't and hasn't made a blind bit of difference because as you slip them on and sit down with a coke and a smile you've found yourself with another entire pant full.

Horrible times.

I suppose it's a case trying to ride the storm out and allowing Holloway a free reign for the time being, I fear with money though, he'll not know what to do with it and as we continue to lose, he'll be flicking twenty spots at more Hungary folk than the Salvation Army.

I'm pinning all of this firmly on Sacha Lennart's shoulders. He's got a lot to answer for.
 
Don't really rate it at all - yet more speculation which won't help.

We do not need this bollocks. IH is our manager now, and although it will take time, we need to stand by it. End of.

Wooooooo get you !! You are lovely when your'e angry Alex.
 
Load of cobbler IMO, I'm not saying the sun shines out of IH's arse, but it just more reactionary drivel. MM has been in charge for half a season in which he has been able to have an effect, (bar sacking Kelly there wasn't much he could do last season). IH has been here 2 monthsish. This is all impatience to the nth degree.

What I don't understand is that people who spout this go on about how we all know there are huge problems in the team, yet except IH or whoever to work miracles in 2 months and 5 days of transfer window.

Ridiculous.
 
I reckon Ric Flair suffers from bi-polar disorder. Two wins and he'll be ecstatic again.
 
It's true. I've had all kinds of rear end problems. Luckily I like to wear nappies so haven't had any boxer changing problems. Just goes to show though. I am not alone.
 
He's gone too far but IH has to start accepting some responsibility for the piss poor peformances and stop bleating about what he has inherited,its starting to wear a little thin and its no excuse for some of the spineless performances under his management.
 
there was a time on here when some would have paid 50 pence just to hear him fart
