Didcot Saint Posted 20 January, 2013 Posted 20 January, 2013 Or will the coward stay away, just like he did at the Press Conference on Friday.
Saint Charlie Posted 20 January, 2013 Posted 20 January, 2013 Sure he will be there like normal. If he had gone to the presser it would have been an aggressive atmosphere which isn't fair on MP so not surprised he wasn't there. What he should have done was explained his reasoning better in a statement on the OS.
Didcot Saint Posted 20 January, 2013 Author Posted 20 January, 2013 I would think he is in for serious grief, of which he deserves.
RinNY Posted 20 January, 2013 Posted 20 January, 2013 Or will the coward stay away, just like he did at the Press Conference on Friday. Whatever Cortese may be, he is not a coward. Persuading Liebherr to buy Saints, and agreeing to take charge himself when it happened, took guts. Sacking Pardew when he did, took guts; hiring Adkins (pretty much unknown at the time), and backing him the way he did, took guts. And whatever you think of firing Adkins, however much one may disagree (I think it was unnecessary myself), it was a decision that took guts! Cortese, like most successful businessmen, is ruthless and has a huge ego. A coward he is not. Get a grip, man!

Cortese, like most successful businessmen, is ruthless and has a huge ego. A coward he is not. Get a grip, man! Too true! He is a an impatient driven and ruthless businessman with no room for sentiment at all! it is these exact features of his charecter and his ability to stay focused on his goal above all else that have in fact got us where we are today so quickly whether we agree with his methods like them or not makes no difference to him! I personally like many others think this time he has gone too far and over stepped what is decent but then I like many others feel a degree of integrity and loyalty still have a place in football!
sotonjoe Posted 20 January, 2013 Posted 20 January, 2013 Who cares? It's not as if he's part of the starting eleven.
Pilchards Posted 20 January, 2013 Posted 20 January, 2013 The new manager needs to stand on his own feet so why should Cortese be at the press conference? He will be at the game and he will be smiling as he knows with MP we can reach the next level.
Didcot Saint Posted 20 January, 2013 Author Posted 20 January, 2013 Perhaps coward was the wrong word. How about one of these, self centered, bigoted, arrogant , vile, rude, horrible , egotistical.
Didcot Saint Posted 20 January, 2013 Author Posted 20 January, 2013 Pilchards, the only level we will reach with these two clowns will be the Championship.
Pilchards Posted 20 January, 2013 Posted 20 January, 2013 Pilchards, the only level we will reach with these two clowns will be the Championship. If only I knew you as I would shake on a £50 bet that we will do better with MP in charge than Adkins.
ericofarabia Posted 20 January, 2013 Posted 20 January, 2013 If he does turn up, I suspect the normally empty seats around him might be taken up by a few minders, just in case.

My sentiments too.
September Saint Posted 20 January, 2013 Posted 20 January, 2013 I cannot imagine ever going for a drink with NC. He represents some of the problems of detachment by foreign ( and some British) owners towards the grass roots. However where would we be without him? SISU? That guy who lives with his mum? Some consortium headed by RL? You don't have to like him or agree with all his decisions. After our protest tomorrow lets get behind the club in our fight for survival!

Even worse SISA dickheads with white hankerchiefs or standing outside the ground while the game is on in protest

doggface Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 I have up to now, fully backed cortese but I was disappointed with the Adkins sacking and totally agree he should of been next to his man at the presser. imo he will not show tomorrow in his seat but who knows.
chocco boxo Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 One thing for sure our best player will be starting!!!!!! and NC will probably be sat in the Northam?
slickmick Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 If only I knew you as I would shake on a £50 bet that we will do better with MP in charge than Adkins. This.
pap Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Cortese has turned up and has a fetching winter coat on. The rumours are untrue. He looks nothing like an Ewok.
The Kraken Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 he's also sitting alone He always sits alone. One of the seats has a Markus Liebherr plaque on it; the other, well I guess Nik Nak doesn't like company when he watches his footy.

One of the seats has a Markus Liebherr plaque on it; the other, well I guess Nik Nak doesn't like company when he watches his footy. Well fair play to him, nothing worse than a sheila next to you board stiff and yaking about shoes and shopping all through the game.
ottery st mary Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 :DUncle Nic...Top man or was it Versace:rolleyes:
S-Clarke Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 He looked quite miffed at FT. MP's days are numbered.
Frank's cousin Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 He looked quite miffed at FT. MP's days are numbered. nah slight grin... but probably thinking Lambo should have go one at least - and JRod looked a bit lost out there - hopefully MP will get the ca=oaches working on him - he needs confidence and also looks too eager, needs to be more measured, look up and give himself time.
Raging Bull Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Sky showed him smiling and looking rather smug at the end. I think it was the end anyway!

Frank's cousin Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Jay's got plenty of attributes, but needs to baulk up a bit as well. I ike the lad. but clear case of lack of experience showing at the moment - Lambo may not have had prem experience, but different game and age/experience always meant he could play his gme at thsi level - just sad for him that he's 30+ by the time he got his chance. JRods time will come am sure of it.
krissyboy31 Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 he's also sitting alone He'll win "fan in the stand" one of these days!
Frank's cousin Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 He'll win "fan in the stand" one of these days! Nah, he wasn't waving his program
Badger Posted 21 January, 2013 Posted 21 January, 2013 Nah' date=' he wasn't waving his program[/quote'] Only buys it when he's on the front cover.
