Title: if we dont win tonight
Post by: Arriba on Tuesday, March 4, 2008, 16:20:41
i will expect to see bart and fatbury outside the arkells with a lynch mob.
or failing that, malpas out chants to by heard at least.

a win will shut the doubters up for a while though.touches wood!

I hope we win, not just because i support the team, but because negative fans ruin my enjoyment. I choose to leave early because the booing at the end annoys me and i have to let others frustrations piss me off. If we win i can see a whole game and not be annoyed with the chav-mongs who boo.

Sad fact is, if we don't play well but win 1 - 0 they will still boo. So annoying!

What makes it worse is that it is all because Maplas isnt "a name"

Most of this negativity would'nt be happening if we were having a poor run under Sturrock / Wise.

and booing phil Smith after his performances over the past 18 months is a fucking disgrace.

I'm glad I missed the teams being read out now. I'd pick Brezovan too if it was down to me, but for fuck's sake...

Same thing happened after Evans did one and King was re-instated. I'm not saying by the end it wasn't time for him to move on, but he was not given a fair crack of the whip from certain sections of the fanbase.

Baignamemanagerloss syndrome.

its the opposite, if we play well but lose 1-0 (like saturday its doom and gloom, malpas out) if we win 1-0 but play shit, it'll be the play offs again!

I reckon it'll be a draw and then all this crap will just drag on until the next game.

King's 'name', or lack of one, had nothing to do with it. He'd done a shit job in his first tenure as manager so it was a nonsensical decision in every respect (apart from financial, which was the only the the board cared about) to bring the prick back.

King's first tenure was not that bad.

I think you should add Kings tenure(s) to your signature points analysis Si.

I'd like to see more of a matrix across the dimensions of points gained/decade played in/division where points gained. In a 3-dimensional pivot table. In your sig.

Interestingly, if you only include the games we won under him, then King averages 3.00

He mopped up the shit given to him though, so bad were things he had to play himself.  McMahon had 1 maybe 1 1/2 good seasons with us but then dismantled the team and replaced them utter shit like Elkins.

Sturrocks average is quite low given it was pretty much mostly a promotion season from the bottom league.  Early days, but Malpas' record hardly suggests the witch hunt some want to begin.
