Bullen was fantastic at fan interaction on there, promoting all the good Sheffield Wednesday things going on, and there's nobody else at the club really doing that so it's a big loss. 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But being a long time servant of the club doesn't give him an entitlement to a job. He needs to perform, and as others have noted the coaching has become a bit stale and we're not really improving players. He and Weaver may have their badges, but there's a difference between coaching by the manual and incorporating new and innovative ideas. Not a single person can tell me what (specifically) Lee Bullen has done wrong coaching wise Why? Because nobody has a clue either way. It's pure guesswork He might have been the GOOD aspect of the coaching team for all we know - nobody knows so to call for someone go get replaced when nobody knows specifically what they've done right or wrong is naive 2 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have a well paid job in the public eye then you are going to get some criticism at some point especially in football. Goes with the territory. I agree no one should accept abuse but you have to take the criticism on the chin sometimes in his position. I am not what he specifically blocked me for but I didn't abuse him or even criticise him personally. It wasn't even a comment on Lee Bullens twitter feed or any of his posts.

It reads to me like Bullen is in charge of the U23s and Thompson is a 1st team coach. If so, that'll give Bullen the chance to manage the young-uns and get more managerial experience - if at a lower level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carbone Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 40 minutes ago, SiJ said: Quite. We have some right oddballs in our fanbase. We appointed some new coaching staff, so the mouth breathers start tweeting abuse at one of the current coaching staff? Bizarre. I don’t condone any of it for one second, and it’s times like this I wish Twitter would make people upload ID when they sign up. Would be interesting to see much nasty abuse these people give out when they know Twitter knows their identity. The most abusive nasty accounts are rarely brave enough to show their faces. Until Twitter sort that out, it comes with the territory and any high profile figure has to expect it. They have to have thick skin and ignore it or just not use social media. It’s like on here. A great place for Bullen to read I’m sure if we’ve just won 3-0, but if we’ve had a miserable season and a 12 point deduction, the discontented ones always shout the loudest. Good choice for him to quit Twitter. He doesn’t need that abuse, but it will always happen if a team with a fan base our size doesn’t win every week.

Popular Post waddleisgod Posted August 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 14, 2020 From what I’ve seen over the years, Bullen doesn’t deserve any criticism in all his time at the club, from a player to coach to caretaker manager all he has done is his best for the club and at times been put in some awkward positions but he has shone as a dedicated, reliable and honest bloke throughout his time. Bullen is an asset to SWFC!!!!! 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
