Have to agree, he was asked if he had any regrets and his only one was believing SISU at the start of the season.
Still, if he didn't like it he could have walked at any time if he hated it so much surely?

Yeah because so many people in this world walk away and quit jobs because they dislike their boss/owners of the company they work for.
I've never understood the whole "if he doesn't like it, why doesn't he quit". He is a human who needs a job to pay bills like you and me.

Don't have an issue with that...so let's treat it like a workplace and conduct an appraisal on our employee....who so far has not admitted any part in the debacle of this season/failure to reach targets.
Read that again carefully....admitted ANY part....not admitted TOTAL blame.....:thinking about:

Bit embarrassing for you, but it was a reference to the mis-spelling of "Singers" from a supposedly reputable sports provider. I am quite aware of our actual origins thank you very much
EDIT: Apologies, that wasn't intended to be anywhere near as patronising as it turned out!

Saying he regrets believing SISU in the Summer and not wanting to do the job because he hates it are two very different things. He's always saying how much he loves the club-not that anyone ever listens. Here's a thought: maybe he means it, and that's why he's put up with the crap he has from the owners?

Of course he has bills to pay, but if I didn't like my bosses and I was having health problems because of the stress I would simply look for other jobs.
My point was just that when asked "do you have any regrets" he didn't mention anything about the football side which I think is diverting ANY blame away from him. If he had said "we have all made mistakes, me, the players etc" then I would think fair play.

I think Nick has a point here this time. Undoubtedly the board and owners are the majority to blame for our demise and they are the reason we have been relegated but the players and coaching team have all made mistakes along the road, particularly the first 4 months or so of the season. A reply like Nick suggested would have been fine here.

The season hasn't finished yet, the real postmortem and review will start from Monday. Hopefully this will identify those mistakes and that he will learn from them.
Oh and he did say on midlands today "we need to learn from what's happened this season and comeback stronger". I believe he included him self in the "we".

Oh well, if you believe that, we'll take that as conversation over.
Face it, AT has made no attempt to lay ANY of the blame at his, the coaching staff and the players' door.
He knew the post-mortems would start and shamefully he got in first (after the Millwall game) when the season wasn't even over....is that looking after you and your own....I BELIEVE that it is.....:facepalm:
