I was making a similar point last week when somebody was going on about lowest wages, no transfers etc. Said we as well not bother then, and just have every club post their turnover and wages at the start of the season, and give the league positions based on that. Would save a lot of hassle.

His "vision" of appointing Coleman when we had signed these players and more, resulted in us finishing one point better off than the previous season and with ever declining crowds and income(Not his, I add) Everybody was always going on about what a hard-headed businessman Ranson was, and would...

Funny how the people who had the RR/SISU combination as 2 halves of the same coin suddenly seem to think that they operated totally independent of each other. Both RR and SISU lying toe-rags, can't understand the people who find Ranson blameless when he has managed to trouser a fortune and left...

I'll match you and raise you a Sawyer, Sears and Stead. Maybe he just didn't have much luck with the letter S?

Ranson "categorically" said a lot of things at fans forums. None of them true though.

Frankie from X-Factor Actually if they really are, then I'm going to make the biggest Fuck-Off SISU flag ever seen. Some things are beyond redemption.

He's been okay, certainly much bigger problems in the team than the goalkeeper.

Fox and Dann, there is some doubt as to who scouted them. Certainly the SISU lovers liked to say that they were Ranson/Thorn signings, though am sure that Tim Flowers said they were down to him and Dowie, and heard nothing from Ranson to say otherwise. Players such as Baker, Bell, Clingan...

I hope they're this seasons Leeds.

True enough, been a lot of romanticising of the Armed Forces in the last few years, something that most who serve don't massively appreciate. All the "Our lads", and "Our brave Boys" stuff all a bit cloying, and Remembrance Sunday often seen as an excuse by idiots to spot who isn't wearing a...

Westwood and Gunnar? What about all the rest of the players then?

Thorn should at least be sacked as scout then?

Mifsud got 17 in a season for us

Sure, but the point is that he wasn't an AT-type with zero flexibility. He kept what he wanted, was allowed to strengthen what he had. That's an important consideration given where the club is now. How could he have been allowed to strengthen what he had if sacked before the new players brought...

He had Dann and Fox available for about 2 games after signing them before he was sacked(Pretty much straight after a 4-0 defeat of Barnsley at home), and we were in the last 16 of the FA Cup, after beating Blackburn away 4-1 in the third round. Not forgetting beating Man Utd away 2-0 that...

So why, with all of Dowies "deadwood" gone, and with apparently so much more superior players since, have successive managers not managed to get as good results as Dowie achieved? Think you're actually recommending Dowie without realising it.

Thought Dowie did very well for us, and hardly a groundswell of opinion from the fans calling for his head. Another Ranson mistake. Remember when we used to score goals?

Not really an issue for us, just hope that the Southampton fans don't make too much noise when they score, as could really do with the rest to be honest.

Not forgetting the "luck" we had when we got the non-penalty against Derby, without which we would probably have two points less, and only one win all season. The Juke penalty miss keeps being brought up all the time as if our whole season would have been so much better if only he'd scored it...

This has been the problem all season: "Patience is a virtue, it is often said, but it is a wasted one if the ball doesn't cross the halfway line. Much of Coventry's first-half possession, though, was strung out between Clingan and the back four" Possesion without intent, is pointless, which...
