Bits & Bobs

Stats for stats sake.
Carvalhal resigned after 131 games - what's the club supposed to do about that ?
Bruce walked after 18 games - what's the club supposed to do about that ?
Pulis walked after 10 games - when he realised he's took the wrong job.

Monk got 58 games
Luhukay 48.

Are you mistaking them for Watford ?

The three that walked all said similar things about Chairman interfering or trying with team selection why does he need a manager, should stick to canning Tuna.
 
He might have been popular as a player but have it on good authority that there's been some unrest amongst their current players in last few weeks & some are happy that he's gone

Don't know about that but at WBA he had a bad run similar to what he has just had at Donny, got the sack and then Bilac took them up maybe in the back off his mind besides the money was history repeating itself and the risk of another blot on his CV, has Coley said today it's a ruthless profession now and getting worse just results driven and for many no time to build a team and youngsters for the future.
 
why doesn,t he go to them then. who would want any chairman involved with your club if he was a fan of a local rival. doubt even andy holt would be as popular with stanley no matter what he did if he was a massive blackburn fan.

Holt, Marsden and Khan were hardly dyed in the wool Stanley fans.

Any one who helps save or invests in the club is popular, no matter what their affiliations are to other clubs.

Most owners these days are not fans of clubs until they buy them, and who they buy is often down to their budget and happenstance.

quite a lot of these new owners probably do not even know where the club they now own was till they bought it unlrss their geography is far better than mine is on arab states. think fans could not give a damn about the football interests of owners are when things are going well. once things turn sour then its some fans life work to dig stuff up on them.
 
Not yet ..... it isn't signed and two sticking points. Minimum tenure period and break clauses. Hopefully sorted they deserve to be back.
 
I enjoyed the Ricoh, used to take my niece & nephew there (Sisters kids) good family section, they live about 10 minutes away, little Coventryites & it was prior to the days of Cov & Stanley sharing a league. :)
 
Another club with an owner that is disliked by fans sacks manager Harry Kewell leaving Oldham with immediate effect there will always be somebody willing to take it on though.

only in football you,d get about 40 sensible applicants for a job with a disliked owner and a basket case of an organisation who think they could do a good job. in any other walk of life i doubt anyone would apply unless the money was something they could not refuse.
 
have to disagree with jcs summary about the coming M.K.Dons game about injuries he says everybody is in the same boat with it, i disagree cos on the basis that most teams above us have far bigger squads than us so that makes em better off than us in my mind.
 
I don’t know if it’s just bad luck, or not, but one puzzling feature for Stanley is how many of those in their squad who are not automatic first team choices, and thus have played few competitive games, are out injured.
