Yeah, we should call the whole thing off and stick with the bloke who cluelessness has landed into mid-table of the third division.
Still, new grounds and better football. |  |

Do people post this sort of stuff in the hope that, if it doesn't work out, they can say told you so? (And obviously say nothing if it does!). Jeez... |  |

I was gutted the day we sold Gaardsoe, really good player and it seemed to sum up our lack of ambition that we were flogging him for what seemed like a low fee at the time.
Still, he must have been the last player we transferred before he got crocked. |  |

O’Leary was very well-regarded there. |  |

Very much a Burley type of player. I never understood what Royle had against our backline. He sold Gaardsore and run off Veno, Makin and McGreal in a very short space of time. We then had to plug Naylor into the defence and rely on rubbish like Diallo, Santos and Fish who's mistakes cost us promotion.
Then again Royle also had Rueser on the books and didn't use him particularly well either. Had Royle kept Gaardsoe, McGreal, Makin and Rueser we'd never had to loan in people like Elliot, Unsworth and Mahon to do a job for a bit and we'd have probably gone up. Diallo alone cost us so many points in a season we should have walked the league, let alone the Playoffs. | |

O leary didnt take a pay whilst helping at west brom. He steadied the ship behind the scenes and a lot those who worked with him were thankful for his input. Supporters overall were very happy with his help. |  |

I said I'm cautiously optimistic. That way if they do well I can say "That's why I was optimistic" and then I can throw it in the doubters faces. And if they fail, I can just say "I knew there was a high chance of them failing, that's why I was so cautious" and I can throw it in the faces of everyone who dared to believe.
It's a fool-proof strategy. Just got to not reveal the plan before you know the outcome. |  |

Gaardsoe, a very underrated player. |
A better midfielder or defender though?
McAuley was also very underrated. I was surprised to see him make a successful career in the Premier League after he left us. [Post edited 7 Apr 2021 22:27]

Those would be Mark Venus aged 36 who made 21 appearances for Cambridge after leaving us, Chris Makin who may have still done a good job and John McGreal who turned down the offer of a contract to move to Burnley instead.
I would imagine the ability to sell Gaardsoe and help plug a hole in finances would explain his move too.
Royle definitely favoured attack over defence and it was good to watch but it should have been no surprise that the squad was going to get weaker after relegation. | |

I remember old poster Dalliance saying that he bumped into BFJ at a petrol station and questioned the Gaardsoe (sp) sale and was told "Oh, you like leaking goals do you"?
Now I'm not saying Diallo was a great player but one game he executed one of the best passes I have ever seen in my sad sorry life.
He was facing Churchmans but was near to the North Stand just forward of the corner of the 18 yard line and he passed the ball to (I can't remember) but it looked like it was going out of play before curling miraculously past the opposition midfielder into the path of our winger. It was incredible.
It was a bit like the circus bloke who played for Lags Eleven in Scorcher and Score | |

Indeed, I know someone who had a very similar conversation with BFJ about Thomas G and he just didn't rate him as a centre-half in a back four. Just before he was sold he played in a friendly in midfield and that was probably where he would have played had he stayed. |  | | |

his header, away at leicester i think, where he was jumping horizontally backwards and got the ball to pick up pace, and directed it into the far corner, was one of the best headed goals ive seen us score |  |
