Some of you defending a Scott Lindsey appointment after weeks of this.....I'm fucking lost for words. What would you lot complain about?
Unreal ain’t it? 😂 Like someone said earlier on in the thread, imagine if Power had done it? It would be labelled as a cheap, desperate and uninspiring appointment. Fact is- it’s all those things. Hope he’s successful and gets us promoted, but nobody with an ounce of intelligence can say this is the ideal appointment. |

I didn't have a mobile phone until 98 so everything was radio or ceefax..
I didn't realise it was that late. When was the dodgy Greek ousted? I recall all the shit around Macari leaving and the subsequent win lose at Wembley.
I also heard grapevine, jungle drums and every other unofficial avenue that the fall out was due to a female wanting to be on the board, she was refused and sang like a canary about the goings on. I think she was high up in the automotive industry. Rover or Honda
Think you're conflating Diamandis-era boardroom turmoil (Andy King, Seton Wills, James Wills, Sandy Gray, Bob Holt et al) in the mid 2000s with Hillier-era boardroom turmoil (Macari, FA demotions) in the late 80s/early 90s here. Club Tweet! It's the Papa John's Trophy draw. We have Rovers and Plymouth. |

Going for the "we haven't got a pot to piss in, so appoint the cheapest available option" is one thing, but at least under Power it would have been quick and not have involved weeks of dicking around and discussing compensation for the cunt to leave.
If Scott Lindsey is the appointment after all this, then some of you defending......its fucking unfathomable to me.
I'd almost like us to appoint Graham Rix or someone just to test where some of your limits are.
I'm in the totally uninspired camp but not going to slate it as I've no idea if he's any good or not. Can't imagine he's first choice but not going to slash my wrists over it. If he gets us promoted then great - if mediocre then the crowd wii turn pretty quickly. |

You may be right, I lived a broad for a good few years 90s early 00s. Unsure of the dates of our many misdemeanours so I take my hat off to you for remembering the approximate time lines. |

Perhaps we should try signing Adam Johnson…

This is Schrodinger's manager - he's either left the club, or been promoted to manager, and nobody knows until he is observed in a press conference. Until such point, two separate universes exist in which Scott Lindsey is either Swindon Town manager or Charlton assistant. In both of these universes, this forum is full of people getting cross with each other. There is nowhere in the multiverse that this is not true. |

I'd love to believe that Swindon rumours account that they've left. Hopefully he does know a bit now but the blokes a cunt and I blocked him because he didn't have a clue about anything and was clearly just making stuff up.
Hopefully he is right about this though.
Not even because I'm convinced Lindsey would be a terrible appointment, because I don't know. But to appoint him after the last few weeks of dicking around would be absolutely tin pot.
