But none of us are quite sure exactly why we hate him we just do....apparently.

not serious in the slightest!

kerry red's post suggested that people don't appreciate him at the moment and will only do so in hindsight, that's just not even close to the truth
Ah. Just scanned the thread and didn't pick up the subtlety.  Apologies.

and if he hadn't we would have argued he isn't a strong enough manager... what people fail to grasp is that he has completely changed the footballing culture at the club - it's now a culture where the manager rules the player and not the other way round... gone are the days (whilst PDC is in charge) when a group of players who don't like the training regime or team selection could decide the fate of the manager/club... yes we have lost money on players signed and released but the success on the pitch and the team ethic has far wider benefits for the longer term...  

The difference between us and say Bristol City is that they have spent money, retained their existing culture and are failing - we have spent money and invested in a culture where players come in knowing exactly where they stand with PDC and STFC - they fuck about then they can fuck off...  we're here to win stuff not just to be also rans...

Well said that man.

Off the back of MacPhlea's post (and at a tangent to this thread, sorry), Bristol City have today revealed their Plan B for potential redevelopment of Ashton Gate should their proposed relocation to Ashton Vale fail to be approved.

Interesting read that, the following bit -

"Rebuilding Ashton Gate would mean that plans to build a new Sainsbury's superstore at the ground would be ditched.

But majority shareholder Steve Lansdown has promised to pick up the whole bill to rebuild the ground if the funding cannot be found from other sources."

Whatever we think of City, they know that their owner will pay for it if they can't get funding from elsewhere, so no reason why their ground redevelopment won't go ahead if they can't get the land for their new stadium. A bit of good news for their fans to have after there awful season on the pitch.

Been away for 2 weeks can someone give a short summary of where we are re takeover and players brought and sold .....

Cheeky sod!!!

What gives you the right to find out like that. Read through hundred of pages of drivel and arguments just like the rest of us had to. :-)

In conclusion - we don't know a lot.

Do sometimes think his ego gets the better of him. The amount of players he's signed, fallen out with and fucked them off down the road is frightening.

Where as plenty of managers in the past have stuck with shit players for far too long. How many years did Pook play here as a pro. 6 years!

Under about a 100 bloody managers. Now that's frightening.

Not sure if this has been posted or not, but this was on Banbury FC's forum regarding the fans meeting with Jed last Friday.

Quote
Jed reiterated his commitment to Banbury, confirming he is the owner and his involvement with Swindon did not change this.

He is speaking to the FA and Football league to ensure he can continue with both clubs.

Bringing consortium's together is part of his business and if any club are in trouble he would try to help, the issues with Luton hurt him and he doesn't want to see another club i the same trouble.

He didn't want this to come out so soon and he was very unhappy with the press, he wanted to protect the rest of the consortium from the press.

He's loving it at Banbury and only a call from Luton could change this, he was meeting with planners yesterday to look at possible new sites for Banbury

Its just Ben and Mex only really, and possibly Yeo. 

Hope this helps.

Is the guy smoking crack? He does know he won't be able to continue in both roles until past the end of this season right?
