League One - Who manages us?

[tinpot_fox]

I’m waiting for Martin Keown to be revealed as head coach and then storming out of the interview when no one remembers he used to play for us.

Playing possession football is fair enough but you’ve got to have the players to play it otherwise it’s like asking a bunch of one legged people to be ballet dancers. Sure, they’ll give it a go, but it won’t be pretty..

The club must be mad as a box of frogs. Totally stuck on this idle possession until we give the ball away and concede idea. 

This the most concise (at the same time accurate and damning) description of possession football I have seen.

Burnley also interested in Martin according to this chap:

You’re right there and we didn’t have the players who could play that way. How many times did we try, gave the ball away and conceded a goal? It was painful to watch yet we still persevered with it week in week out. I reckon they thought they were Barcelona. 
Just been watching the Lge1 play off semi finals - quick decisive football played with energy and determination.  We’re going to need to match that and if we continue with tippy tappy football we’re going to come unstuck. 
For my money Challinor is the man to build what we need not only to survive but to challenge for a top spot.

Do us a solid here please Burnley

It’s going to be posturing isn’t it, feels like more than a coincidence that this comes out hours after our supposed interest in the fish bloke. Think it’ll be regarding the terms of his contract etc

It'll just be to get more money out of us. Will work as well.

Just had a quick look on the Burnley forum, seems that they're as keen as we are
