Although i definitely wanted JL out of wednesday i think its a sad picture seeing him sat on his own at sheffield train station ..for all his efforts you'd have thought the club would drive him to where he needed to be, being a foreigner in a different country , just my thoughts.

His wife's with him. Edge of picture. He's as excited about her as he was about Wednesday.

I think Jos did genuinely have a long term project. I admired it in a way. But it seemed a bit too extreme. And football is results based and as soon as they don’t come the pressure mounts. 

 

I think he wanted to blood the youngsters as he realised a lot of players are old, out of contract and crocked. But you need a short term plan along side it. You need to find a way of picking up points and since the Bristol game we’ve been shocking. 

 

Its a shame because back end of last season I thought he was on to something. Not worked out, we move on. 

Yes, down to National League North & back again.

And ensure continued profits for ownership/shareholders.  Spare me.

And ensure continued employment for many others? 

And the shareholders...usually the  shareholders are the pension funds of normal working people.

 

but hey ho it must be lovely and comforting having  such simple views and taking the high moral ground when you never having to deal with reality.

heard Warnock say only last month " if they sack me the worst case scenario is  I get a pay off spend Christmas at home and then go on holiday somewhere warm in January "...…...jos i'm sure wont be any different.. 

 

Yeah, but I bet Warnock never considered that he'd have to face the horrors of arranging his own train travel, did he?

 

I bet that prospect would have made even him feel quite sad.

In football, long term plans often stretch as far as the next match.

Perhaps predictably, in true Owlstalk style, this thread seems to have gone off track and now seems to have become a "capitalist" versus "socialist" thread.

 

Whichever side on the fence you're on, and I fully accept the point about Jos being financially comfortable, I'm sorry, but you really do need to be a cold - hearted, bitter old bu**er not to feel at least one shred of sympathy for someone - in what is allegedly the season of goodwill - who gets red carded just before Xmas.

 

Yep, it is a bad time of year to lose your job, the reality is he should have been given his cards 6 weeks earlier.

Jos ....he had a very nasty side to him, berating Sean Clare in the Sky post match interview

last season, after the Villa game at Hillsborough, after what I thought was one of the best

displays by an Owls youngster in years.

Onomah was the last one to get the public treatment ... that went down really well with

Spurs fans.

 

Totally and utterly wrong for our club in every shape and form,

but good luck to him elsewhere.

It doesn't rhyme.

I don't think it's a particularly sad picture.

 

Puts me more in mind of a decent festive episode of Poirot. 

Little moustached man at the train station about to depart through the snow on a train to solve some mystery. 

 

As long as the radio Sheffield lads aren't on the train ."But who did it Poirot,  who did it?"

"How many times you ask me this 10, 20, fuckinhell"
