Hate to say it, but I'm afraid the players have taken their foot off the gas because they think they can get away with it because Flynn is a 'nice' bloke. You've got to be a hard bas**rd to be a manager and Flynn is not one of those. This is going to end very badly.
-
Mystic Mick eh?
was n`t your last prophecy we were going to be relegated by Christmas?
-
He makes a good point that the lads seem to have taken their foot off the gas a bit, though.
It seems that way, at least.
-

No. It was that Saunders would be gone by Christmas. A prediction that wasn't far off the mark.
-
Far too soon to jump to these conclusions. Does anyone remember Mick's posts during O'Driscoll's time here? I can't, but I wonder if he's ever backed any of our managers?
-
He did say Flynn was a great choice for manager the other week.

Thank you. I've only ever had a problem with Saunders. Looks like he's started to work his magic at Wolves.
-
Given that your opening post is attacking the character (of someone you probably know as well as I do) then are you saying you were wrong to support Flynn or that you now have a problem with him after two weeks?
-
Is it possible for anyone to have an opinion on this forum without getting shot down?
-
No. It's just a feeling I have. He has my full support. He should be given until the end of next season before any judgements can be made. I'm sure JR will sort out this 'weakness' if indeed my feelings prove to be correct.
-
He won't get to the end of next season if we don't go up.
JR will sort out the 'weakness' you seem to have somehow uncovered by adopting Plan B and bring in Adkins, if still available, or Robins during the summer.

But what have been his possession stats?
:chair:
-
You have to be a hard bas**rd to be a good manager do you?
Sean O'Driscoll: Hardest man on earth.
-
You have to be a hard b*****d to be a good manager do you?
Sean O'Driscoll: Hardest man on earth.
I wouldn't quite go that far but yes he was a hard task master.
-

I did post some stats but the thread got removed almost immediately.
-
We've dominated possession the last 2 games, dominated.
And we've lost them both, I think you even realise now that the shite you posted under Saunders was exactly that. Shite
-
It's no good having loads of possession if you don't use it properly. However I do think it is a step in the right direction and hope Flynn is given the time to bring in the right type of players that can use possession effectively.
-

And it mentioned nothing about possession.
-
It is well known on this forum that I think possession is very important. However the overwhelming view of the rest of the forum seems to be that possession is neither here nor there. Therefore I have decided not to post possession stats any more as they are clearly of no interest to the vast majority.
-
What the rest of the forum thinks has never bothered you before!

Even I with my pugnacious debating style have to admit defeat eventually on certain subjects. No-one could accuse me though of not doing a valiant job on the possession issue against overwhelming odds.
It's not my fault if my point of view is always right and most of the rest of the posters keep getting it wrong.
-
I think you'll find that putting your fingers in your ears whilst going 'la la la la la la la' is not a generally accepted sign of pugnacity.
-
You've been proven wrong many many times. Saunders left us in a superb position, you predicted relegation.
You can't get anymore wrong if you tried

Don't challenge him! ;)

Of course it is if the poster is actually interested in having a serious debate and positive contribution towards the forum..........however some posters are only interested in being a WUM/troll and should not be let within 100 yards of a keyboard.

It's very difficult, especially if your name is mjdgreg and you are not a sheep and actually post what you believe no matter what the other posters think. There seems to be some sort of vendetta against me just because I speak my mind in a pugnacious manner and won't be cowed by others with a different point of view.
I welcome any view that is expressed even though the majority don't agree with me. I thought debate was all about discussing different views and not all singing from the same hymn sheet. That would be very boring, and boring I am not (or modest).
-
It is Mick. And I would welcome you with open arms on the day you start to practice it.

Mick,
I've been searching the deleted threads file (we keep a copy obviously) but there isn't a single thread of yours in there about stats and possession with reference to Brian Flynn. Let me repeat that, not a single one!! If you must spread absolute tripe at least try and not get found out at the first hurdle. Amateur!

Mad Mick making stuff up? Never in the memory of man.
What's the date? Somebody write it down.

Wrong. The tread was titled 'Key Stats From Yesterday'. I suggest you speak to Mr Wigley. I suspect he removed it. When I mentioned the fact that I had started a thread about stats he posted the following:

I did post some stats but the thread got removed almost immediately.
And it mentioned nothing about possession.
I've highlighted Mr Wigley's comments in bold. So as you can see he is fully aware of the so called fictitious thread. He is correct that I didn't mention anything about possession but then again I never claimed to have done.
I suggest in future that maybe a discussion between the moderators needs to be held before the draconian act of removing a thread for no good reason is taken. I always thought this forum was very tolerant of people's views ( even though you have locked a good number of my threads) but am now starting to feel that onerous censorship is starting to become the order of the day.
I await your an abject apology that will be accepted immediately so we can put this sorry matter behind us.

:lol: Almost crying at my desk here - what a thread :lol:

Wrong, again, I`m sure Mr Wigley will accept your abject apology, he was n`t even online when I removed it, and for the record I removed it because I`m sick to the back teeth of your intentional wind up posts, as I`m sure many others are on this forum, you`re taking the piss and you know it, you`ve had more slack than most on here, be grateful for that, you`ve ruined Off Topic, I`ll be damned if you`re going to ruin the main forum as well!
That`s my opinion, I have n`t consulted with any other Mod, they may have different views, I don`t know, but as far as I`m concerned being a WUM on the main forum puts you on thin ice!

A thread about 'Key Stats' that didn't mention possession, oh really? Did your three stopwatches break or was there another reason (other than we had 65% possession and lost) for why you didn't include it oh great oracle?
