Well done Bullen

[steelowl]

fantastic turn round  in a very difficult situation 

He's done really well and so have the players and salvaged some late pride at the end of the year

 

bring on the new year whatever it has in store player sales / new manager 

[gurujuan]

Hasn’t he just However, and not taking anything away from Bullen, I’ve always said Jos was massively underachieving at this club

[WalthamOwl]

Done very well so far, personally still hope Bruce comes in but Bullen deserves a lot of credit. I think these past 3 games also show what a poor job Jos was doing and that the players had indeed stopped playing for him. 

[Mr. Chow]

Partly agree but needs to grow some balls if Westwood didn't play because of a transfer  drag him back into that starting 11 kicking and screaming until he leaves

Well done

[steelowl]

he took some stick a  fortnight ago   

 

 

but even his biggest critics will have to admit if steve bruce had achieved 7 out of 9 points  he'd done an amazing job 

[theowlsman]

Absolutely.

 

Talks a lot of sense too in addition to getting a fantastic reaction from the players on the pitch.

Might not been his decision to make. Club might not want his risking injury.

 

Bullen reminds of when Sean Mcauley was in charge. Done everything and more asked of him when put in caretaker charge but hope there are not calls to keep him on full time if Bruce falls through.

it's not just the 7/9   it's who it was against  2 promotion touted teams away  and but for  ridiculous happening in fergie fantasy time beat both of em

Bullen's said post match that Westwood was never going to play today after speaking with him. But he'll be back in the 11 on New Year's day. 

 

Big praise is needed for Bullen, he looks like he's learnt from the Burton Albion debacle last year, huge improvement. 

 

Bullen has got 7 points from 9 compared with Jos' 5 from 33.

[mannyowl]

Done extremely well and he deserves all the praise possible - however I can't help but think some players are now working hard to impress new buyers or gain contract extensions 

[gurujuan]

The thing is, it’s more than the usual honeymoon period, when a new man takes charge Yes he’s managed to lift the atmosphere around the club, but he’s made significant changes to the way we play, and even utilising the squad to our advantage. As someone who suggested earlier in the month, that Jos should be relieved of his duties, and Bullen be given the reins until January, I’m not surprised at his success. Not perhaps the long term solution, but a steady hand nonetheless

Done it all by simply picking the best players..Who would have thought it?

Well about 80% of the posters on here.

Thats whats worrying...Well done lee anyhow,

but its not been rocket science.

Lee bullen has used simple common sense hasn't he?...its dragged us out of a relegation fight

of course  but equally i think it obvious that they wanted jos out  just a shame it took the clamour at the forum to force chansiri's hand 

 

convinced this league standard is poor and despite our injuries we could've been up there

Short term yes but lets not get carried away, a more experienced manager is essential for longer term IMO

The players are professionals, so I’m sure they gave their all, but they are also humans, and who really would have enjoyed their football under Jos

Mate, I’m certainly not getting carried away, I wasn’t suggesting anything other than a caretaker role for LB. However, for me, the real decision was getting rid of Jos. We needed to release the pressure that was building

yep   i remember saying during a jos out rant that agnes in the tea room could change the mood it was getting fecking dark he'd quite obviously alienated several players 

 

thats not to take away how pleased i am for bullen and how well he's done 

[mcmigo]

Lee Bullen is a Wednesday legend, it is great to see someone like him in the dug out. The club is more than a phase or a transaction to Bully.

 

He is doing a fantastic job. We have had players limping off in games and he has managed that really well.

We have done that, now DC needs to make the decision to take the club forward, fingers crossed he will get it right this time !
