HE'S STILL BETTER THAN JONES

Tue Jun 14, 2011 8:04 pm

This understandable mixture of dissapointment, fear and underwhelming. He's not my choice at all, I'd have preferred even Mark Robins.

However, we must remember one thing

He is still better than Dave Jones :D :ayatollah:

Sadly, even that's not true.

Jones has a better win percentage than 12.5%...

Don't you think that win percentage is harsh and doesn't put anything to perspective other than to show your dislike for the choice of manager?

At least we won't have a November blip

Just start it from August instead

Nah, in fairness Luke above me makes a good and valid point. We will just have to wait and see.

And you think Shearer is a better candidate than those linked based upon what?

This was a golden opportunity to drive on from Jones. We needed someone with experience to rebuild the squad. To get us up. Instead we've gone for someone living entirely off his career as a player.

That is the most stupid comment I have ever heard. Only 8 matches as a manager and he only won one of those. He has a long way to go as a manager before he can even be compared to someone like Dave Jones.

It was in jest. It is the internet, don't take everything so seriously. And don't go calling things stupid, just because you don't agree with them.

And for the record, he could turn out by december to be better than Jones. A Guardiola. Or he could end up a Stuaunton, and have us in the shit. It's a big gamble.

Nobody knows. I know what I think, but I'd better not say seeing as I am so stupid :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
