  1. It's just great. I think it's his obvious and genuine respect for the club and the fans that has touched me the most. He's got straight to the heart. And it's just wonderful that someone of his quality and professionalism should be actually willing to drop down a league and take this job on, in such times as these.
  2. Just an incredible set of circumstances seem to be coming together here, creating something positive out of all the bucket loads of shit these last years. It really is unbelievable.
  3. Was good to see him be the first to get to Darlow and congratulate him for the pen save, he seems to have been really up for the fight under Rafa.
  4. Couldn't watch the game tonight, but not surprised he's putting it in now it's coming down to the line. Always had a soft spot and respect for him since the last game of last season when he ran himself into the ground, along with Jonas. Showed he cared.
  5. Still can't quite believe this could be the outcome of everything we've been put through by the club these past years, it's unbelievable really. It'll all be on a knife edge until the end of the season, but at least there is now something to look forward to if we can somehow stay in this league, even if it is just a tantalising glimpse at the moment. Rafa could have such a a huge positive impact.
  6. The greatest sympathy to his family. Pavel played a big part in my life as a supporter, lots of fond memories. Was only listening to him on the radio the other week too, incredible really that he should be gone so young.

    Depressingly I reckon we will hold onto him way beyond it being too late, out of plain ignorance. Have to admit to being initially quite encouraged by the coaching appointments, so desperate were things before. But the whole head coach idea being spouted off is proving to be fucked, and comes from those at the club who know nothing. This club desperately needed some leadership where none was being shown, and should have appointed a proper manager with that quality. But I suppose they were never going to see that or admit to it anyway.

    We're the incentive for all the teams below us and will have been for a while, they know we're fucked. You really couldn't get a better motivation. I'm convinced we're better off in the championship now. It's the only chance of getting the club back.

    It's a good start. Hopefully momentum will continue into the next games. Proud of all who have stayed away today.
  10. Rather a nice quiet kind of exciting time at the moment. No idea how it'll pan out, but there's a few interesting names in the frame it seems.
  11. The man banged on about doing the job with dignity, but turned out to be the least dignified manager of the club I can remember. That's part of the cloud that's lifted for me today. Apart from the obvious good coaching skills, one of the things I'm looking forward to in the new man is someone who can represent us again with a bit of dignity, honesty and respect.
  12. Reckon the crowd will be well up for it. A game to look forward to at last. Good riddance to 2014.
  13. Reckon all that shit from the club today about the banners was a pretty clear indication he's staying.
  14. just watching the dignity of Pellegrini on MOTD, and remembering the abuse of our manager towards him. Quite a contrast.
  15. Journo Richardson sounds convinced. Oliver also going with it, laughing stock I know but wouldn't be surprised if he and Richardson, senior journos, have been tipped off. Would be typical of Ashley though. Just can't imagine the atmosphere next season if true.
