Really love the lads enthusiasm and general personality, I feel bad as I now think he's not actually that good.
He's ok. Not great, not awful, just ok. Can fill in a few roles but doesn't particularly excel in any. We certainly need better and as that list proves haven't spent very well.

Mind I still think that the players we do have are underperforming largely as a result of poor tactics.
 

  • A set of stars aligned that season in regard to all the "big" clubs being in some form of transition or upheaval that is unlikely to happen again anytime soon.

    You mackems really are a blindly optimistic bunch and always go a bit silly whenever anyone from the outside world takes an interest in you but just to dampen your excitement and dreams of imminent glory for a moment, ask yourselves why these billionaire investors have chosen to spend coppers on a cheap purchase rather than a ready made top club ?
    The investment needed to get from a squad of players and coaches who wouldn't make Championship reserves to being a successful premier league club is several hundred million so why not just spend it now ?
    There's a reason why these people have never invested in sports franchises before and why they've bought a corner shop rather than a top brand.
    You're a strangely excitable bunch and moving on from the Don should be viewed as some kind of progress, even if it's little different to the numerous other lower league clubs who have seen investment from various "gazillionaires", but realistically you should probably be concerning yourselves more with what your going to do with your increasingly unpopular manager and a squad who can't put a run together in the third division rather than dreaming about winning the Premier League.

Fair cop about blind optimism and silliness, they’d never demean themselves in such a way.

Ross has just said "Conversation's TODAY suggest they'll be a sustainable approach given to grow the club in the right way" Or words to that affect. But he definitely said 'TODAY' when talking about the new owners.

Whenever I speak to Geordies, they act as if they have no idea what I mean when I talk about embarrassing videos etc.

I think it's because they just don't think they're embarrassing.
