Happy Christmas!

That's 2 things! Happy Christmas everyone! 2 days early, and no doubt I'll be on here for a bit on Christmas day (can't spend ALLLL day with the fam) but I'll say it now anyway!

On a shoestring? Decent manager but has always done his best work when there's been money available.

I think a lot of them understand that but are so disillusioned with what's going on that thinking about another manager, ANY other manager, is better than thinking about what's currently going on! I'd like to see a new man in charge because I wholeheartedly feel we should be more competetive but...

Like I said, some people need to do it. It's not done to annoy people that don't want to. I really don't see what the problem is saying something like "my number 1 target would be Billy Davies" (which I said earlier). It was on a thread regarding managership so it wasn't going off on a tangent...

Nah, it's an issue at the moment and the forum is for debating so I wouldn't worry about it!

Erm, I think you're taking this too seriously. Like I said, fantasy is better than reality, it's just musings, noothing more! Some people need to do that, me included!

I think the posts you're on about have been hypothetical. I've posted a few like that but they're purely "if we could afford/attract the right manager, who would I have". No harm in that to be honest - at the moment fantasy IS better than reality.

As in the same subject keeps cropping up? Or something else? Don't cry!

Don't really get what you've been on the last few days? Every comment sounds like a kid having a tantrum because they're not getting what they want?! Just an observation! Share your pains with the group macca, it may help!

Paxman, the poll came from a debate on another thread

Surely it's just for the boxing day match, isn't it?

Did he definitely know though? Personally I don't think he did. Lot of smoke and mirrors behind the scenes at City these days. PS I did actually feel sorry for Quirke by the way

The phrases "crash and burn" and "ruined his career" come to mind! Yeah, knew Clark has had a lot of money, I was hypothetically suggesting he might have here too (this is all obviously set in cloud cuckoo land by the way, before anybody suggests I'm mental!)

Bit unfair, you've picked one player! I would think losing 12 players would/should guarantee the arrival of at least 5 players (that's at a normal club mind). It might not have made that much of a difference, but we'll never know. I'm also not championing Thorn but I'll always prefer his way to...

Ohhh the choice! Well, I wouldn't have Boothroyd back, full stop! So it would have to be Thorn. As for the corner thing - God knows. Like Sterling says, CColeman started it and everyone since has followed suit. It's ridiculous! Invites pressure and in these torrid times, if there's one thing...

I couldn't stand Boothroyd's style personally. You have a point that he ground out results at the start but even then I really couldn't stand to watch it! It was horrible football! But, like you said, he needed investment, which he didn't get. But then Thorn's lost 12 of those players and only...

Yes - in fact I'd want a clear out of most of the players too. There's a negativity surrounding Coventry that's been there for a long time, it's really time to get rid of it (if the takeover happens). And Rich, I couldn't disagree more about Boothroyd - his football was horrible and it left me...

Do you know if anyone's been in touch with Saints fan for a bit of help? I think that would be immense if they did the same thing and had a banner in the game.

Without a doubt. Concise, I would say... and pretty much what we're all thinking! Other popular phrases may be: "Do one", "hit the fucking road Jack", "don't let the door hit your arse on the way out" and, my personal favourite "piss off"!
