come on, so would have.....

"Slade is particularly well respected at League One level and has a reputation for achievement on low budgets, which will suit Coventry City as a club without commercial stadium revenues since they left highfield road"

but for some reason he has only commented about the post wasps access to revenues.

SISU do get they monies worth out of Les 'smoking gun' Reid. No story ever knowingly under spun.

He should be posting on here with a paragraph of spin like that

He doesn't help himself at times but he's always on message, reporting on politics has clearly influenced him.

Sure. It's more akin to bias than lies.

For example, I am a doctor who has decided I need to cut your feet off (for medical reasons).

There is more than one way I can give you this information:

1) "Sir, I've got great news! You're going to save loads on buying shoes!"

2) "Sir, I've got terrible news, you are going to lose your feet and probably also your job"

3) "Sir, I'm a genius doctor who has managed to save our legs, we only need to lose the feet!"

4) "Sir, thanks to NHS cutbacks we can't justify the extremely expensive procedure required to save your feet, so I have to cut them off"

All true, all give a different impression. Spin is the way you tell a story, not its veracity.

Know loads of teachers, every one of them is pissed off with it. All love teaching, just all the shit that goes with it, a profession that's been treated appallingly.

It's not the kids... It's the other adults that make up pointless shit for you to do to justify their own roles.

No, people said nobody would want the job, who was sound of mind!!!! For me it might as well be Russell Grant!!! It changes nothing, other than a 10 game boost stay off relegation. Next year Slade will be knocking Tims door saying well boss i done my part any chance of new players, to which Tim will say oh didn't you know the budget is getting cut but don't tell the fans until i have to sack you or you walk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sound familiar, the Bullshit roundabout is about to spin around again..

Secondly where does Mark Football Venus sit in all this is he now going to walk as he is not in a football position...

Still joke owners!!!!

I'm not pissed off and i'm sure a few more out of work managers wanted the job. I'm just stating the roundabout we are on, but if you want to buy it fair play, hope you enjoy the 10 game bounce and the smiling Tim laughing at trying to BS the fans he is the man they wanted all along!!!!.

Haha, fuck sake. I'm pleased we've got an experienced league one manager who's used to working within a tight budget. I'll leave you moaners to carry on bitching to each other about the owners. It's been done to death.

So the other breaking news is that Gary Caldwell and David Flitcroft were on the shortlist.

That's significant breaking news...
