Flattered, I'm sure

Well good luck to the bloke. Nice enough person with his heart in the right place. A number of positive ideas but misjudged the scale of rot in the club and the requirements of the challenge. And ultimately maybe not the right person to drag it kicking and screaming into being a contender.

Abusive, I'm sure.

Whilst your infatuation with me is both worrying and flattering, let's get this thread back on topic shall we?

As I said on the first page:

...now, according to some, his legacy (sic) is that the players interact with the fans more than they had done in the previous years. Each to their own I suppose, but when I look at a head coach and his traits, being able to coach the side would be pretty high up on the wish list, as would the ability to spot the areas that nee improving after each game and working on them. I'd also expect his recruitment skills to stretch past jobs for his mates, one of whom was retired but found it hard to turn down the cash on offer.
Joe Grima was a cast iron failure in his time at the Club to the extent that even though he walked after 3 games this year, he'd already destroyed this season in its entirety. The gullibility of Hughes at the season Launch in town declaring that the squad assembled by Grima, the one that had a full off season to gel (except for the mates who rolled up late) was good enough to geut us back in to superleague underlines that whilst Grima was pants, Hughes again has to accept his judgement has cost the club again.

I'm sorry if my opinion doesn't sit well with some on here, but that's the purpose of a forum. To discuss topics from differing viewpoints....not to whine when someone posts something you don't agree with and in my opinion, Grima was a farcical failure and reality TV is probably where he belongs.

If you don't start the personal attacks the thread won't drift. Simple.

And I dared to praise Grima for something, cue the attack dogs from you.

So David Hughes was gullible was he? And that's why we're where we are? Let me remind you of this...Looks like Mr Hughes wasn't the only gullible one around here.
We didn't fail this season because of Grima or David Hughes, we failed because we had no props and ran into a load of big, hard, tough nut, part-time packs who've driven us up the middle. We got found out.
You and Hughes both got it wrong, along with Grima, the players, and many others.

Oh how I wish you'd follow your own advice.
