Having to take extra steps and be needlessly vigilant just to be able to go about your Saturday isn't management.

Exactly. I think it's good to be optimistic and hopeful, but I've seen people say they'd happily give this guy the money they'd refuse to give SISU. I mean hold your horses (cowboy pun), we don't really know anything of him yet.

It's in reference to Valiant.

While I'm desperate for some good to come of this or of anything at all, it does pay to be wary too. I mean, 'new owner courted by Joe Elliott, previously failed to take over another club' rings a few bells.

So guesswork and your own horribly skewed view.

Surely it'd just be evidence that we're a third tier team in the doldrums which is precisely why we're in a position to be bought out and recovered in the first place? I can't imagine it'd surprise him.

Highfield Road didn't 'manage' at all, it saw several residents be blocked in completely on a regular basis. What it had over the Ricoh is general convenience for people not driving.

To suggest we somehow have it the worst just suggests a shocking lack of awareness of the plight of the vast majority of fans. It's all a bit 'woe is me', especially when people claim we're the laughing stock of English football. As if English football cares enough.

Am I missing something, or is it just a fairly generic BBC preview with added Edjenguele saying 'we'd like to win this game of football'?

No top 6 finish in the top two divisions for nearly 50 years beats pretty much anything in the third and fourth divisions.

Soccerbase is usually reliable and that has him on 24 league starts for us so far.

My God, what a professional outfit this club is from top to bottom.

If you look at his other stuff, it's generally syphoned into 'fans zone' or (ugh) 'banter', which allows the Telegraph to regard it as an independent voice they're giving a platform to, if they were ever pushed on such matters.

He's not reporting, he's got a column. By nature these can vary from the general stance of the publication that features them.
