Some things get confused with when we took on Houllier. That was the first time you knew they were out of their depth.
Is there any point in asking for a McLeish/Lambert explanation, or five lots of compensation?
Quote from: dave.woodhall on January 07, 2016, 05:40:40 PMIs there any point in asking for a McLeish/Lambert explanation, or five lots of compensation?Hollier was ideal for Lerner. Out of work and no compensation. Fits in well with his new austerity plan which he's carried on since. Why you being so touchy about it?

Why you being so touchy about it?Call me mad if you like, but when I disagree with something I'll often say so. Now, again. How does this "out of work manager is all part of the plan" theory of yours square against the next two managers appointed and the five lots of compensation paid out?

I mean it's not like we've done things on the cheap ever since though is it?

I would imagine that would be a more effective way of getting your views heard than shouting in a car park.
