Wizzard1867 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 On 14/02/2020 at 07:28, snaykz said: I remember when we won games under Megson, the opposition fans regularly used to moan that we didn’t play any better than them, we just bullied them into submission. What we wouldn’t give for a team like that now, rather than the weak-willed, half-hearted performances we’re currently serving up. I’m not suggesting Megson as a realistic candidate, but I do feel we need somebody of that ilk, a big character to instil a winning mentality, to give us a bit of a nasty edge and have opposition fans calling us bullies once again. What we have is a young manager who appears to be out of his depth and who some of the players don’t seem to respect. Megson gets more realistic by the day. Same old problems, same old Wednesday.

nilnil Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Seriously just STFU about Megson. That joke got old about 6 seasons ago. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizzard1867 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Seriously, people are judging Megson on the style of football we played in league one, before we could afford to blaze money up the wall on has been millionaire footballers. The players lack direction of how to win football games. We need to start winning football games, that's all that matters. We need Megson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilnil Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I'm judging Megson on the fact the game has long moved on without him. Who else should we go for in that bracket. Curbishley? We do need to start winning games. Megson is not the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurujuan Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I don’t suppose DC has considered that he may have to make a change, so a considered replacement seems a bit fanciful, though not as fanciful as Megson coming back. The problem is, another journeyman appointment, is unlikely to reverse our fortunes, and they don’t come much more journeyman than Megson. Don’t think any heavy handed tactics will coax a performance out of these players, rightly or wrongly, they won’t put up with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fine for L1 but anything above is a joke I think they think that because the pigs have a fan manager then we should have one and everything will be perfect. The fact that Wilder was a good manager before he went there and he just happens to be a fan seems to pass them by. I despair. He’s more Warnock than Wilder.

PeteG_1984 Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 If we do get a 12 point deduction, Gary Megson is one of very few managers I’d count on to keep us up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 If Megson is a football managerial messiah then why haven’t Liverpool, Manchester United or Real Madrid come knocking on his door or come to think of it even Crewe, Hartlepool or Chesterfield? Jesus some of our fans live in the past, let’s get Big Ron back or even Trevor Francis if we want to live in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
