I know him and his opines are as valid as any other Stanley fans, many probably agree with him :)

Re: I want to know ....
 

not many come on here though:rolleyes:

Re: I want to know ....
 

Not when they are based on spurious claims such as knowing the opinions of all the players. Nor are his negative and overstated opines particularly helpful at a time when maximum support is needed for ALL at Accrington Stanley.

That may be true - I happen to think that it isn't. I suspect that many more will acknowledge the difficulties faced by the present manager, and furthermore acknowledge that the decline began under the previous manager.

Re: I want to know ....
 

Hi guys,
Once again I said I was not referring to all the players.

Once again, this is not anti Leam.

Once again, blind loyalty and support wont change anything if the manager is not upto the job

Once again, I fully support the team and club, but 1 win in 16 is shocking and fans have a right to ask questions

Once again, I hope Leam proves me wrong but his track record says otherwise

Lets hope for 3 points on Saturday, we now run the risk of being cast adrift if we dont start picking up points

Re: I want to know ....
 

What your really saying is you hope Stanley get beat to prove your point;)

Re: I want to know ....
 

No, because the point has already been proven.
1 win in 16 games.

Re: I want to know ....
 

Once again - How will Stanley fund this revolution?

For those of us of a certain age, this and other threads are starting to sound very familiar

Re: I want to know ....
 

Once again,how would you change it and finance the changes?.:)

Once again,are you blaming Leam and not the players ?:)

Re: I want to know ....
 

Re: I want to know ....
 

People who think this came from Paul Cook are seriously delerious!! Leam has now had plenty of time to grind out results with the team we have and has even added his own players!! My post is Anti LEAM as he's just not good enough and his tactics and management is taking the club down , simple as. The quicker he is gone from his position and replaced with an actual manager the better!

In a way I hope we loose on Saturday then the penny might drop for most of you and hopefully it will for the board ! In another way we really need the points or it's goodbye football league.

Re: I want to know ....
 

FC:Stanley if Leam went today what happens next. If you are offering the solution it needs to be complete. The board would need to a) pay off leam b) find a replacement (quickly) c) fund a replacement.

A) how?
B) who?
C) how?

Re: I want to know ....
 

It's sad that fans let personal vendettas cloud their judgement. Despite Coley being statistically the most successful manager this club will probably ever see, many disliked him and there were numerous threads on here calling for his head.

However because Leam is liked, because he is "a good lad" many deem him impervious to criticism. If Coley had lead us on a run like this most of you would be apoplectic with rage.

I said the following in the Exeter thread but I think it needs reiterating here:

"I think it's important to remember that we are not just suddenly turning on the team in a fickle display. True Stanley fans don't expect much in a league in which practically every opposition club dwarfs our budget, attendance etc.

However this isn't a five or six game losing streak. We understand the aforementioned problems our club faces and as such tolerate these more than other fans.

This is ONE win since the 20th November. That's ONE win in nearly three months.

Factor in that the manager has absolutely no attacking intent and it isn't rocket science where we are heading.

Also I don't buy this "they aren't Leams players" nonsense. Did he have no dialogue with Cook as his assistant then? Of the team last night Leam signed the following:

Rachubka ("gentleman's agreements" don't keep you in the league. Should have gone for Belford)

Hunt
Hughes
Wilson
Beattie

Aldred was on the bench.

Factor in that under Leam we have absolutely no attacking intent and I'm afraid we are Braintree bound and looking forward to FA Cup qualifiers next season barring a miracle.

I hope I am wrong and have to eat humble pie come the end of the season (is there horse meat in that too?). But at this moment in time.I feel like a deckchair attendant on the Titanic."

I don't post on here very often. Its taken me seven years to reach the 1000 post mark. I prefer to observe and only make a point when I feel I have something worth saying. Henceforth, this current situation worry me and I feel compelled to air my views regardless of how hard certain posters try and shout down anybody with an opinion.

I always thought we would be squeezed out of the league eventually and that our football league adventure would be one for the grand kids. But to see us sink without any semblance of grit, spirit and determination is demoralising to say the least.

Re: I want to know ....
 

Everyone is entitled to there opinion,but what frustrates me more than anything is its always the managers fault.
Over 40% of managers have been changed from the start of the season,are they all bad??.
In my opinion,a tradesman is only as good as his tools and a lot of managers struggle when they cant get the players they would like.
Simon Grayson has taken over at Huddersfield and lost there last two games conceeding ten goals,does that make him a bad manager or have the players struggled to take on board the way he sets his team up.
How can Cooky not shoulder some of the blame?,how many players did he come in for in January?,it answers itself.
Leam ran with these lads but soon realised we were way short on experience and has tried to respond to this.
Changing the manager, who will what his own players(coley at rochdale),will come at a cost,and the penny doesnt seem to have dropped for a lot of fans,WE DONT HAVE ANY !!
There are regular first teamers on less than most conference players,its a fact.
I for one dont want us to go down the road of living beyond our means,so survival and having the odd good season will do for me.

Simon Grayson's the Preston North End manager.;)
