You have to say 0-0 away to the blunts and 0-0 at home to Cardiff looks way better than 0-3 at home to Burton! Carlos wasn't in charge when we lost to Burton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lincs Owl Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 What a ridiculous thread title. Carlos the Clown. That's Liverpool, Arsenal, Watford and Wolves(cup) defeated off the top of my head. You don't get to manage MASSIVE clubs like Sporting Lisbon and Galatasaray (Both much bigger than us) if you're a clown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adzz Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Whilst I'm not happy with the job he did with us this season and our poor recruitment there's no reason to get angry over him. We got to the playoffs twice at least. Let's hope Jos gets us sorted out for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even Alex Ferguson wouldn't get our reserves into the top 6. Because he didn't get them fit enough for Championship football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is he might keep them up this season, but I wouldn't fancy his chances of lasting there too long. That's not just based off his past record, but also down to the recent trend at the Swans. Still - I don't think a crap 6 months makes him a "clown". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thread title mentions clown, at least he has a bit of class about him, unlike some of the fv.ckwits on here. It wasn't a standing start though. Stuart Gray strapped a rocket to his back and lit the blue touch paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a slight exaggeration. He inherited a decent spine of a side which had finished twelfth. You make it sound like he'd inherited a team already challenging for the promotion spots. He added some quality (due to having the finance to do so) and for two seasons running, we weren't too far off from getting promoted. It then hit the proverbial.

That's the manager's responsibility. If you aren't fit you pick up injuries. Why is that concept so hard for you to accept? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His time was up, but I’d give his time with us a 7 out of 10 overall. That couid go to a 6 or an 8 depending on how responsible he was for the woeful recruitment of the last 18 months. No doubt injuries played a big part in his final downfall, but again it’s hard to say how much his input contributed to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
