What? Really? :shock:

Would you pass on the name/details of someone who gave you such information?

If you would, then that's clearly why you don't get any (info that is) ;)

The last few weeks Warnock was no

Not exactly true warnock gone on record several times about of his love of dalman. The info of warnock getting harris in was from a player himself!

I said I would give Harris this season to be able to sort out a squad for next season

Although I'm growing inpatient with the lack of backbone from certain players !!

If you build it they will come

Up to you all , it’s what I was told this afternoon.


Makes total sense! I’m surprised the others have broken ranks but what a piece of work VT is! Even now that the cash flow is far less than in the Prem, he’s still penny pinching.

Put it like this - Warnock got on well with Tan, but he wasn’t a yes man and he got the squad to give 100%. I’d have him back in a heartbeat.

Interesting choice. A bit left field but I like it tbf. Has Milner disclosed a managerial ambition?

Surely the question raised is what is point of Dalman and Choo?

It's about time this club had some stability. It will do us very well in the future.
Norwich was always going to be tough, we have 3 centrebacks out and no right back. Wilson is off form but undroppable.
We saw today when Moore came on how different we were, played some decent stuff and if it werent for the poor form of Wilson and the annoyance that is Bacuna (wish he would pass sometimes) we couldve had a few more goals. Defending down our RH side has been awful for ages, but bring back osei tutu and Mozza and it makes a huge difference.
Harris may not be our Premier League guy, but he could easily be a Toshack to a Speed, or a Pearson to a Ranieri and lay a foundation for this club that will benefit us for years.


You’ve made some really good points. He does seem to have an eye for spotting good players, based on his limited acquisitions to date so he may not be the worst person to spend in Jan. I don’t think Harris will take us up but there are some positives to him staying. The playoffs are starting to look well out of reach - we’d need automatic promotion form over an extended period to get there now - so a new manager at this stage would be massively up against it. I do think though, that the next few games should decide Harris’s fate. We can’t keep losing and naively hope for the best.

The more I think about it the more I believe Harris will remain as the man to get rid of the high wages and bring in cheaper replacements.


Makes sense. Our Slade mark 2

Agree ;)
