Maybe I need to quote your own comment back to you?T
No, and no...
I do however think that we pay a lot of money for scouts and a recruitment team, we also pay a lot of money for a manager who knew the players needed replacing.
Why would I be naive to think that when we lose three players they need replacing....
Good question Al. Taking what has happened overall since his appointment, I'd be in the NoIt has been pretty obvious for ages that whatever outcomes arose this season Gary Caldwell was not going to be sacked.
So here is a different question:
If we were recruiting a new manager today would you appoint Gary Caldwell ?
I would suggest that the clubs that comprised the League 1 table last time we were relegated had more resources available to themWe’re not competing against ourselves 10 years ago, we’re up against clubs today most of whom have the ability to generate more cash than we do.
In football ambition has to be backed up with hard cash for it to be realised.
Stop sitting on the fence and tell us what you really think.#StillFuming.
Disgraceful behaviour by Tis that evening for all the reasons mentioned above. If anyone thought a team containing Clinton Morrison, Danny Butterfield, etc could hold a Liverpool to a draw for 60 minutes, they’re a £ucking idiot.
And this isn’t hindsight. I and 6,000 others said it as soon as the teams were announced. It was a stupid team selection, a huge metaphorical pin thrust into our Cup-run balloon.
Tosser.
Still pining for Tis Geoff?Good question Al. Taking what has happened overall since his appointment, I'd be in the No
camp
Nah. If I was pining for anyone it would be Matt Taylor but no, just still unconvinced with Mr Cladwell.Still pining for Tis Geoff?
The league cup run was great. I don't think anyone has disputed that have they. Up until recently our league results where beyond terrible and the fact we only spent a week in the relegation zone is testament to hoe god awful the bottom end of lesgue one is this season. Ultimately league results are the most important thing, cup runs are bonuses and great fun, but league results are all that matters. Irrespective of performance and entertainment we appear now to have done enough to stay up and Caldwell has dragged himself (bar another doomed run) a crack at next season, but we can't pretend that we weren't awful in the league for a huge period of time this season because of a cup run, no matter how good it was.I wasn't going to post on this thread but still, I'm wound up. So here goes. We were 10 minutes away from penalties and a game in the quarter finals of the League Cup. For the first time ever. We got through to the 4th round of the League Cup for the first time in 35 years after not having a sniff of the 3rd round let alone 4th in those 35 years. And after beating a top tier side for the 1st time in 43 years. OK it was a rollercoaster of a season but we should finish the season with one of our top 10 post war league finishes. For me from following City since 1978 that is a bleddy good season. I've known City teams who couldn't keep possession for more than 4 passes then you might have something to moan about. Fully get behind the team then they might have a bit more confidence going forward.
