Massive meltdown from Jon ‘My Way or the Highway’ Beer on the Fleetwood pod. Prob still hungover, but adding that blaming the fans for our poor run after everything they have done recently won’t go down well. With his families links to the club is his seat on the pod now a conflict of interest 😉

His start to the episode with Tagg was classic Jon Beer, David was saying its massive for the podcast
"It's massive for you guys, I've known him for years"

Yes Jon, we're all aware you worked for the club. Get Alfie in permanently, and loan Jon out to BBC Devon for the season. Lovely.

Listen to Taggy on the latest pod interesting .

Jon is okay but he can’t help himself with moaning at anyone
who has option on Exeweb.
I thought it was bloody a nerve to moan at a bit of booing
to a certain player after he was subbed , telling us Don’t bother
to turn up next time ( I didn’t boo by the way but might of inside)
That was virtually the first time for years.
Also we actually go to matches regularly.
if football followEd his example no manager would ever get sacked.

I’ll give GC a bit more time but after the Bolton game the next 4 or 5 games
we’ll have to get a decent points return.

By the way love David.

Decent listen as always

Was all good and balanced until Taggy's closing remarks alarmed me - Caldwell isn't going to get sacked and I think we are going down.

Yikes! For a moment I read that as Taggy said '...I think we're going down'

Bear in mind this was recorded post Fleetwood…

He said some stuff out loud that perhaps aren’t as they seem (to give him the benefit of the doubt) but concerned me nonetheless:

Rough quotes these, recommend listening yourself…

- “people say we can’t afford to sack managers, and that’s true - we can’t”

-“Tis learnt the most from going down, followed by a quote from Readers Digest about a finance guy that lost £5m and his boss says ‘you didn’t lose £5m, we spent £5m on you learning’ or something like that…

-“I think we have the right person, I really do” RE: GC

- “we have a good reputation of 5 managers in 20 years… I would like to say, at least.. even if the fans want a change every 5 minutes”

-“when you have a sensible intelligent person they will learn from their mistakes… what are you going to do, bring the next one in and start again?”

The rest of it he was pretty open and honest and said a few times that it wasn’t currently going well

Not sure he’s one of the main decision makers now anyway

Oh and he used to read exeweb “religiously” until a 2/3 years ago. Wonder if he had a multi 👀
