I think if I had invested circa £20m in a product and that was all I was getting my reaction would be the same. It's easy to go to the bar and drink away your memory of a match when it's only cost you £20, I imagine it's a bit different when it's cost you £20m. Nothing was as boring as Brentford away this season. They must have had to forcibly restrain mel from kicking the door down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rab a dab doo Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Agree with him or not but Uncle Mel has once again put his hand in his pocket for what he perceives is the long term good of the club. I for one say long may this continue, whether he makes wrong or right decisions his long term commitment to the club can be beyond question.

Sure the Chairman can see the difference between that and a game where we just passed the ball aimlessly between centre backs and literally put no effort in.

Nobody was undermined, everyone was told to book their ideas up. If he had spoken to the players only he would have undermined the manager. If he had spoken to the manager alone, it appears the message may not have got across to the players that performance was unacceptable. All in my opinion and based on what MM has said, which of course is only his side of the story of course. Im sure he learnt his lesson anyway, didnt we lose 3-0 at home in the next game?

People have selective memory to suit their arguments, that along with a couple of games especially in the first half at home are some of the worst football I have seen derby play for a long while. That Fulham game we had 19 shots albeit 1 on target and won 2-0, following on from a recent 4-0 drubbing of Bristol City, yes really boring ? Brentford we have 24% possession and a total of 3 shots. To say it was boring is an understatement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
