Thedelldays Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 not knee jerk.....my honest opinion.. JAN OUT
benjii Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Would be a great move but I can't see him being interested.
saint1977 Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Nice idea - how are we goig to pay him though? Lowe needs to depart now though, that's the third awful blunder after Grey and Wriggley, we'll never know with Sturrock and Lowe was unlucky with Burley so I excuse him on that one. Think I'd rather have Barclays pick our new manager than Rupert...
Eddie Moliano Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 The whole Dutch thing is certainly a total farce and beyond a joke. However I can't see it changing/
Andy_Porter Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 100% agree TDD. Get JP out now and get in an experienced CCC manager with total control over first team matters. No more Lowe on the sidelines before a game, no more stupid loan deals on the back of the chairmans reccomendation. Offer Davies every penny we have to save us. Do it before it's too late Lowe.

We need a proper manager who knows what it takes to stay in this league.

Legod Third Coming Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Mourinho in NOW. Oh and free beer in the concourse. Well, you started it... No chance. Wish it weren't so, but no chance with Lowe.
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 It will be Hockaday... The next cheap option....... How many season tickets will sell in League one?
badgerx16 Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Nice idea - how are we goig to pay him though? We are paying THREE hapless dutchmen at the moment, that might cover it.
Whitey Grandad Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 It's going to take someone special to turn this shower around. I'm not sure that Davies is that person but any manager who knows what he's doing would be very welcome.
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Agree 100%. The sacking of Pearson will go down as Lowe's most stupid decision yet IMO. Yup!
Andy_Porter Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 It will be Hockaday... The next cheap option....... How many season tickets will sell in League one? Lowe wants shooting if he even considers Hockaday.
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Agree 100%. The sacking of Pearson will go down as Lowe's most stupid decision yet IMO. He certainly has made a fair few.
ALWAYS_SFC Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Lowe wants shooting if he even considers Hockaday. He has done it with Gray and Wigley so don`t rule it out with.
benjii Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Get Hoddle in Should certainly be an improvement.
Fan The Flames Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 As I said on another thread all we need is a few more dutch coaches winkything
Weston Super Saint Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Lowe wants shooting if he even considers Hockaday. It'll be Hockaday. He's cheap, and Lowe can say it's the fans fault for demanding JP's head. He had no choice, there's no money etc etc...
saint lard Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Lowe wants shooting if he even considers Hockaday. You know deep down Wotte/Hockaday will be the next dynamic duo. Thats the way Lowe works.
Andy_Porter Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Yeah, I really wouldn't be shocked at all. We need a strong manager in charge not another "yes man" with no experience.
Mr X Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Agree 100%. The sacking of Pearson will go down as Lowe's most stupid decision yet IMO. along with deciding he knows everything about football when he knows f*!K all I have given this experiment time but enough is enough this along with him being on the pitch on tuesday issuing orders is the final straw. Can't bear to look at his smug face a second longer. call it kneejerk or whatever but till hes as far away from sfc as possible I wont be 100% happy have never liked the bloke and never will, I know someone who met him firsthand and he really is as arrogant as he comes across
Huffton Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 It doesn't matter now, its too late. The team is just not good enough, and will be further weakened in January, no manager will be able to change that without money to spend. Well done Rupert
Weston Super Saint Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Yeah, I really wouldn't be shocked at all. We need a strong manager in charge not another "yes man" with no experience. We're not going to get a strong manager while Rupert can pick his yes men, then line them up like ducks when they ultimately fail.
Andy_Porter Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 It doesn't matter now, its too late. The team is just not good enough, and will be further weakened in January, no manager will be able to change that without money to spend. Well done Rupert There is still plenty of time, give someone like Davies total control and tell him how much he has to spend on wages etc even sell Lallana and Surman. There are players like Lucketti, Perry etc who you can get on the cheap and sort the team out, someone like Davies would make us harder to beat and playing with a bit of passion and confidence. Pearson didn't spend anything and turned are season around in 12 games, give Davies half a season and he can get us out this mess.
saint1977 Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Agree 100%. The sacking of Pearson will go down as Lowe's most stupid decision yet IMO. Yep, sums it up given the circumstances. That's without Wigley, Gray, Sturrock and SCW's crew as well. Too many errors for a CEO and in any other organisation he would have been sacked a long time ago. Time that Barclays did what none of the other muppets will do and swing the axe.

It's GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH BARCLAYS!!!
miserableoldgit Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Get Hoddle in Dalek??? Is that you???
saint lard Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 The two second half goals possibly have spared JP,IF he was to be gottten rid of anyway,which i sincerly doubt
Saint Martini Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 If its not knee jerk then why didn't you post this at any other time during the last week?
badgerx16 Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 call it kneejerk or whatever Lowe is one jerk I think I would certainly enjoy kneeing
Thedelldays Posted 13 December, 2008 Author Posted 13 December, 2008 If its not knee jerk then why didn't you post this at any other time during the last week? i have posted this about 3 times this season..if it helps..will post it again on wednesday
manji Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Loads of clubs have been clamouring to get Billy Davies havnt they ?
Thedelldays Posted 13 December, 2008 Author Posted 13 December, 2008 Loads of clubs have been clamouring to get Billy Davies havnt they ? makes no difference does it...? :confused:
Under Weststand Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 I've wanted Billy Davies since Burley went just what we needed. As i've said before he always gets the best out of what he has & plays to there strength's. He is the sort of manager you love as your's but everyone hates. Just no chance of us getting him & we couldn't afford him even if he fancied it.
Stu Man Do Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 It'll be Hockaday. He's cheap, and Lowe can say it's the fans fault for demanding JP's head. He had no choice, there's no money etc etc... Really? I'm pretty certain he'd just promote Mark Wotte, lets not forget he was going to appoint him as boss before we signed up the messiah, sorry no I mean George Burley.
redstripe Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Davies was my original preference when Burley left. The way his Derby played us in the play offs may save are skins.
harvey Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Loads of clubs have been clamouring to get Billy Davies havnt they ? And ????????????, tbh I'd be happier trying to fight my way out of this league rather than playing inefective football.
Ash Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 If its not knee jerk then why didn't you post this at any other time during the last week? Because it was, it is the dictionary definition of knee jerk. Not many threads like this when we went four unbeaten a whole seven days ago, the same people who didn't give previous managers a chance are doing it again. Anyone with any semblance of a grip on reality would surely appreciate our squad isn't up to much. The fact that Lallana is being held up as one of our most sellable assets says everything. Not saying there is nobody who could do a better job, but seeing as though we aren't relegation dead certs just yet (beat Forest next week and we will be seen points clear of relegation) why don't we for stability for just a bit. Five managers in a year would be excessive even by our standards.
Graffito Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Yep, regularly changing the Manager's really worked for us hasn't it?
rocknrollman no2 Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Yep, regularly changing the Manager's really worked for us hasn't it? How about rather than change the manager,we change the chairman?
saintwarwick Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 How about rather than change the manager,we change the chairman? A chairman with new investment or just a new chairman with the same problems?
saintwarwick Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 not knee jerk.....my honest opinion.. JAN OUT I would love Billy Davies to be our manager just like I prefered him when Burley left but sadly we have no money to get that type of calibre in, sadly we have what we can afford plus Davies is not a yes man.
Fowllyd Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Loads of clubs have been clamouring to get Billy Davies havnt they ? Indeed, and we faced incredible competition to get Poortvliet here...
saintwarwick Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 100% agree TDD. Get JP out now and get in an experienced CCC manager with total control over first team matters. No more Lowe on the sidelines before a game, no more stupid loan deals on the back of the chairmans reccomendation. Offer Davies every penny we have to save us. Do it before it's too late Lowe. That's the problem we don't have any money, we are skint.
saintwarwick Posted 13 December, 2008 Posted 13 December, 2008 Agree 100%. The sacking of Pearson will go down as Lowe's most stupid decision yet IMO. Yup! Pearson wasn't sacked, his contract was up at the end of last season. HTH
