A commuting manager is a no-no. Little wonder Lingy had a breakdown.

I was a little surprised by Brucie telling us on Monday that Lingy "didn't seem at all bothered" in his post match interview after our F.A Cup defeat versus Harrogate, and it really does just come down to whether you are willing to dismiss the words someone is saying and draw a totally different conclusion. From the same interview the BBC got the impression that Ling was "angry" while brucie got the impression that Ling "didn't seem at all bothered" At the time when Ling stated he was "Massively disappointed" I probably believed him. Should anyone wish to re-listen and draw their own conclusion whether Ling really didn't care less, or whether it's an attempted hatchet job by brucie then here's a link ;-) http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/20205318
Presumably he was angry that his woefully cautious tactics had resulted in an embarassing result.

Yeah that was a bit harsh. I can be quite pleasant in real life.

What went on behind the scenes last season will in all probability never be publicly known. It was unknown whether the Board collectively had a pair. Then they did what was necessary and proved they had become the dog's b*ll*cks. They are better for the experience.

From this viewpoint, too many in the past have taken the piss. The Board have been slow to cotton on and it has had a cost. Tintin (AK) comes in, sees it as it is, and the squad is given an enema.

Gone are the days when non league calibre players can pass themselves off as Football League standard.

:clap:

Yes it comes to something when a player like Macklin has been at the club for THREE years. I have nothing against his signing as most signings at this level are risks, but how on earth did we manage to shell out money in wages for him for this period of time.
Most of our players were non league standard last year and some of them were barely Western League standard. Thats why we nearly got relegated. Simple as that really.
