A very big thanks for the kind words.
Your right - what a communitiy we have here.
Now... I am still out on the descision of TP, so...
TP's job criteria would have been survival - that does not mean win every game by playing atractive "THE BAGGIES WAY" football but staying up. Therefore we have to decide if 1 point was better that losing 3?
Up untill the Ville games I would have agreed the job was getting done. the deffence looked good. but it fell apart from a great height.
A couple of points that were brought up on WM where that the team thought they were safe (via media and fans etc) and have sat back and got complacent. I even heard TP saying this in the post match interview. What's all that about? I'm nearly finished the job i'm doing so i'll just go up the canteen and get a tea and read the paper - Yeah right! like i'll still be in a job tonight.
Secondly, it was said that TP had anounced a few weeks back that during the summer there will be major rebuilding as the present crop were no good - How bad is that? What a confidence knock OR... is it a kick up the bum? I know if that was me i'd be going out my way to prove him wrong and then if I still went the boss would look a laughing stock.
Rightly or wongly, I think you can only judge a manager on his own crop of players.
But at the start of the season we were all saying this was the best collective of players we had assembled for a very long time.
Surely a good manager can work with any player? Yes/No??
Might not win games but the fans should see a good improvement and at least 100% effort.
Could there be a point of the old guard getting their backs up again?
