Beholder Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 (edited) "Bitterly disappointed" Irvine had a vastly inferior squad to work with. Jos is currently looking like the worst manager in my lifetime. Edited December 3, 2018 by Beholder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
room0035 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Doris the tea lady for me, at least she would get them ready to play from the 1st minute in game instead of the one half team we currently have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannofan Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Alan Irvine was a disgrace. The way he clung on to his job waiting to be sacked as we crept nearer to relegation to the bottom division was horrific. Just standing on the touchline with arms folded, completely silent and stationary as the players didn't put any effort in whatsoever. Megson couldn't fail to improve our fortunes after him, it was like Sturrock following Turner. A real no lose job for a manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i used to be sc_owl Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Both terrible but at least under Irvine there was some hint at organisation. Jos is looking increasingly like a rabbit in the headlights. I am giving him the benefit of doubt and assuming he is a decent guy hoping to turn it around and not just someone clinging on for a final payday.

Lord Snooty Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Eustace. Irvine. Jos. Blimey. I actually think there's a case for Turner in the sense I have rarely felt as miserable watching us - though in his defence. He'd inherited us at our worst time in 30 years.

katie melua Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 This is like asking whether you would want Stephen Lennon or Nick Griffin as the Foreign Secretary But to put this into perspective... Jos has only signed Pelupessy, then Hector and Onomah on loan - in the championship. Irvine brings in Soares and Nolan, putting us in a better position until we then only get a feeble 10 points from the last 11 matches seeing us deservedly go down Then proceeds in the summer to bring in Weaver, Otsemobor, Coke, D Jones, Sedgwick, Teale, C Morrison, Heffernan and Neil Mellor on loan. Come January, he brings in Reda Johnson, Michael Morrison, Mark Reynolds and Gary Madine - yet performances throughout that season (bar Hartlepool away) were shocking under him. Who can ever forget Leyton Orient battering us on our own pitch yet we somehow managed to escape with the points. Then the amazing performances away at Exeter, home to 9 men Yeovil, being completely outplayed by Charlton and Huddersfield in successive games. It's a complete myth that people go on about Irvine having nowt to work with yet he bought in 15 players during his time. 15 players to play bizarre formations such as a 2-6-2 formation at home to Bournemouth in an undeserved 1-1 draw. He was a complete disaster in league effin one! Had it not been for Nicky Weaver and Megson bringing in Rob Jones and Danny Batth, we would have more than likely been relegated that season. Relegated with a far better squad and set of players than when we came down the first time. By far the worst manager we've ever had at the club! His football was dreadful, set up was awful and to counter the opposition because their right back was a good player - instead of going for it was typical Irvine. Father Jack Hackett would have been a far better appointment! Then again, I always believe the person that made the choice to hire Irvine was in a state that Father Hackett commonly found himself in!

jonnyowl Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Irvine! Because I from what I can remember the defence was never this bad! Actually I've been going since 1991 and this is the worse defence I can remember us eve having in that time! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
