Beholder Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 (edited) I always had a feeling for Jos as a person. He just seemed such a decent bloke. But as a manager, I'm glad he's gone. Edited December 22, 2018 by Beholder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many fans on here were saying sell Westwood to ease FFP, we’ve got capable hands in Dawson and Wildsmith. But as soon as that decision turns out to not be the best, Jos is a villain? He was stubborn and should have took Dawson out the firing lane agreed, but like I said most managers stick to their principles, just look at Carlos and Dave Jones two of the most stubborn coaches we’ve had. And just because we’ve kept a clean sheet against 10 man Preston today with Westwood in goal, doesn’t mean we won’t concede three against Boro on Boxing Day. We were far from convincing this afternoon. I agree his time was up, but calling his disgusting names on Twitter to act big and tough behind a screen? Grow up. You’d probably like the bloke if you had a conversation with him. What has he been getting called? ’dross’ is about the only comment I’ve seen, oh and ‘clueless’ too. But I think they are both quite accurate in terms of ability as a coach. I am also pretty certain that some of our best serving players will have zero compassion for the guy.

You’d probably like the bloke if you had a conversation with him. But neither of those two, plus Jos, combined were as stubborn as Alan 'coaching badges' Irvine. I was relieved for him actually as, if we'd lost today with him in charge, Hillsborough would have been a shocking place to be (even worse than normal!!!) Today wasn't great but we needed a turning point and, with the old lads back plus Bannan to come, it just gave everyone a bit of a lift. Jos can go and have a nice relaxing Christmas now and yes, the Tw4tter users really need to grow up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you have to do is search Jos and c*** into twitter and it’s pretty disgusting to be honest. This period under Jos really has reminded me we’ve got quite a lot of scummy fans.

The Wall Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Don't agree with any name calling etc. But "man gets train" is hardly a story? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I thought it was poor from the Star. They are that desperate to fill space they print that with the ridiculous quote from the person who took the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastleigh Owl Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 How very sad. The bloke wasn't up to the task, that's quite evident, but I'm sure he tried his best. The vitriol directed at him i'd expect from porkers, not from Wednesdayites. Things certainly have changed over the years, we were never like that previously, we were always the decent half of Sheffield, we've become infected by the tvvats from over the dark side. Cut the bloke a bit if slack FFS and wish him well. I do. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N0rtherner Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Hollee Gibson, who took the photograph, said: “He was keeping a low profile and was very quiet. ...and then she snapped photos of him and made a little money (perhaps?) donating them to the Star... so much for letting a "beaten" man just leave in quiet. Since when did we even give a poo how a sacked manager leaves Sheffield? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 That does make me feel sad. I’m pleased he isn’t our manager anymore but he came across as a decent person all be it out of his depth being manager of a club in our position imo.
