our board is pretty balanced between brexit and fuck brexit (11,000-post thread mind) but there's absolutely no challenging the now-universal orthodoxy of fuck belgiums and everything that goes wrong is belgiums fault and we've lost our soul and boooooooooooooooo

yeah but there are the usual suspects who wanted him replaced with a-manager-that-knows-the-Championship i.e. fucking Steve Bruce or something and players-that-understand-the-Championship i.e. whatever comedy fee they were asking for Rhodes plus the usually circulating shitkickers
plus every point dropped is like a death knell to some of our lot

Steve Bruce IN now............
Mendes has used us to clear duds he has foisted on other clubs. Fosun own 8% of the Mendes agency so they get some of their money back but this is rapidly turning into a joke situation.
His track record is not great and we need to press the eject button now to give someone better qualified a good chance of getting a play off berth.
If the new signings are what we have been led to believe then any combination of them should have enough quality to see off Barnsley. Obviously not. Is Zenga up to the task? Has he got the experience of English football and what is required to succeed. I have my doubts.
This guy has no track record and likely will just scream and hold his head. I have had a bet that we finish in bottom 3 and it looks good.
Better send for Brucie - which we should have done the minute he became available!
it goes on and on. that's from Tuesday night. i fucking despair, don't make me go back in there, please

it took our chairman five goes to realise that 90% of British managers are basically the same arrogant and lazy Brucie type bullshitters with varying levels of luck. Fuck knows why anyone would want him at their club.
Powell used to spend every week admiring the budgets of our opponents and reminding us of how we can't realistically compete with them. Glad to see now him and Pearson have endless money at candy crush they are competing so well. I am probably sounding smug here, but fuck it - even when we weren't top of the table last season it was clear we were witnessing our best manager since the pathe days. football message boards all just seem the same mix of crypto-racism and reactionary fatuous nonsense these days. but idk maybe I'm being a look-back bore - but it did seem much less idiotic and more fun than they are now in the late 90's/early 00's Rivals messageboard era. ours went downhill after Sky bought Rivals and loads of decent posters either didn't migrate to the new board or became absolute tossers, I can't remember which.

― door unlawful carnal knowledge (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 24 September 2016 15:56 (seven years ago) link
it is very disappointing, I hope Leeds get the same ref we had today at their next away fixture
Reading ended up lucky to hold on against 10 today, despite the ref giving them everything, bottling a last man foul on Nahki call and seemingly hellbent on reducing us to 9. Previously we get gubbed in games like this, so definitely taking positives from this one, especially away at one of the better sides.

she was up for election to the EFL's board as its L1 representative, against stefan gamble of walsall, but several dozen charlton fans sent letters to all the other ceos in L1 dissuading them from voting for her, so she has pulled out of the vote, meaning gamble is elected unopposed

"Derby's players were only told about Pearson's suspension three hours before kick-off in south Wales, and the news made for a sense of bemusement inside the Cardiff City Stadium."
The real big story of the day. Allegedly, apart from piles of fucking money from signing on fees, one of the main reasons Butterfield pushed for his Derby move was to gtf away from Powell's insipid management style.

Lack of job security I suppose is the vindication a lot of them will feel for trying to get some hustle bustle on the side. Doing it to put Junior through university to pay off bookie/losses at the roulette wheel. It is hard to justify this type of grift when some of them are already on obscene money, but I suppose the more you have the more you spend.
