That would be a real shame as I’ve always liked MacArthy - that ends if he goes to L**ds!

He was but I guess Darren Moore may have something to say about that. Two games in charge and he can't be far off surpassing the points tally Pardew got!

Post by: drfchound on April 16, 2018, 04:42:25 pm: “Reaction”.

Isn’t that a phrase used by almost every manager these days?

I know it is a favourite of DF.

What I want to know is why Leeds ever appointed Heckinbottom in the first place.

Any other club would have sacked him for the position Barnsley were in when he left them.

It was a shambolic appointment, not quite as bad as Dave Hockaday mind, and it's no surprise to see they've flopped badly under his stewardship.

think me and "mortis" disagree here over Heckin
this is what i posted a year ago -- i was actually looking for a chessie post of mine when i found this little "gem"

As Rotherham prepare to exit the division -- It seems pretty obvious from here that our Dingles friends will have trouble at mill by this time next year -- players get tired of ant football aka "pressing football"
since when was pressing football "football"

barnsley have a very good manager who I expect to get pinched As I said over a year ago I reckon he was involved in barnsley climbing off the foot of the table not that "idiot" that Pistol City paid to take the "liability" off their books

Now over a year later ....

(A) The Dingles are in deep water and (B) as i "said" his bottom did get pinched as he slipped off the leed

that idiot at bristol City was given a ludicrous FOUR YEAR CONTRACT that's why he hasn't been sacked many times -- he's the luckiest manager in football
