We will never know what really went on with the frozen ones but joining the dots seems to suggest Jos did not like to be questioned. Just ask Mr Giddings if you disagree. My guess is that Jos was told the old guard were not going to be offered contracts in the summer, so was looking to give the youngsters experience in time for next season.

Yeah, there is probably something in that. I think Jos got the balance wrong. He could have slowly phased younger players in through the season instead of putting players like Baker, Penney and Dawson all in at the same time.

To be fair, i think the original questions asked were reasonable given how it worked out for JL and the immediate improvement since his departure.

matthefish2002 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Sure Bullen gave his opinions but he is only an assistant and will respect that final decision was not his to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkinsfootballboots Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 So let’s look at a few conspiracy theories posted on here recently...... 1. DC picks the team not Jos......guess that’s a load of rubbish. 2. Jos is sat with a spreadsheet picking the team due to bonuses....nope, he used a dart board. 3. DC stopped KW, Hutch and Boyd playing due contract issues and a million pound bonus for KW......guess that was ballocks too.... Loving the unity on display by the players and of course the supporters the last 2 games, long may it continue but I can’t wait for the next instalment of NCIS Hillsborough to have another good laugh at the ‘ITK’ brigade 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with that and for those reasons I do get what jos was trying to do. The problem was that he was going to get us relegated in the process.

Mountain Owl Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Everyone seems to forget that Bullen wasn't even 2nd in command. In fact that leads me to a question does anybody know if Remi is still there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any fan on the crowd could have improved that team by simply putting a couple of the experienced players back in. The fact Jos just simply wouldn't do it was always going to spark theories that he was having his hands tied. It was just so utterly bizarre that I don't think fans could ever be blamed for coming to such conclusions. I think we can all agree that we are thankful that we were proved wrong.
