Brammie Steve Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 We may not be the best football team in the world but we're in the top one! I may not always be right, but I've never been wrong! As for Brian Clough...he met me once! Now...what were that about changing my mind? Never had to!

Leicester Ram Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 You know what, I hated almost every moment of Gary Rowett’s tenure and strongly disagreed with pretty much every decision he made. Maybe too much. Since he left, I’ve seen some really reasonable posts and well thought out points about his time with us that definitely made me reflect on those decisions he made. And I haven’t changed my opinion one ducking bit, that guy stinks, what an absolute fraud of manager, just make the most unambitious moves possible and fans will lap it up because it’s sensible, try your hardest to keep every game tight and hope you score first, maybe squeeze enough out of your squad to sneak in the playoffs then hope you fluke your way past teams that have actually bothered to develop some attacking flair and know how to score when they need goal, the man clearly did a mad job scouting that summer to sign Huddlestone and Davies, my Nan turned 87 last week and she could have told you to sign them because she watched MOTD once in 2009, honestly she probably watched the one week where Cameron Jerome actually bloody scored for Stoke so she could have scouted him too, not only a boring bar steward but an arrogant one, imagine thinking you’re gods gift because you can get Vydra to score in the championship, fell out with him by the end of the season anyway does anyone actually think he’d have replaced Vydra the season after, not a chance he’d have signed jordan Rhodes or some poo and we would have been even worse to watch, honestly never been so embarrassed at a performance as that fulham away leg, what a bloody joke that was, he can’t wait for an interview too so he can get a nice soundbite, anything to make a name for himself and get a PL job, would sell his kids for a chance to manage in the big leagues, he has wet dreams about doing an interview with Lineker, definitely has a huge inferiority complex because he was a bang average player, can’t believe he left us for bloody Stoke and people are on here saying ‘oooh at least he left us quickly unlike Lampard’ yeah Jesus Christ Gary thanks for leaving your “dream job” at Derby for bloody Stoke, ffs at least frank left for Champions league football, also he only pretended to play 4-2-3-1 because the optics of a 4-4-2 would have exposed him as the Warnock wannabe he is, that’s why we don’t release our team sheets on twitter in formation anymore because it was a 4-4-2 and it still annoys me today, when we release our line ups in number order it looks like bloody Huddlestone and Malone are playing up top, dresses up like a young tactical innovator but beneath that jumper and those trainers is a football dinosaur, what’s he actually achieved as a manager other than finish top 6 with us, you could give the bloke Messi and he’d still finish 5th in the championship, honestly Nugent would still be running around up top doing sod all if he was manager, a fraud, a con man, a FARCE and if he ever came back I’d genuinely go and watch rugby for a bit and I hate rugby but at least I could have a beer in the stands.

Orphanram Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 A few of the early Rowett doubters changed my mind. When he first arrived I thought it was a great appointment, I thought he’d done well at Birmingham and liked him as a player. There were a few posters on here from the get go who highlighted a flaws in his time with BCFC and I thought they were being negative along with a fair few other posters. Over the course of a few months I saw what they were saying was credible and it began to influence my view. It also made me reflect generally when people share views which are critical against decisions made by the club, how the team has performed etc... it’s important the forum has such contributions and posters should ignore the bedwetter, wrist slasher type of insults that invariably get thrown in.

Rab a dab doo Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Your argument has validity to a point. Everyone has an opinion/view on everything. What makes a perceived view to be right or wrong is if this supported a majority or minority of people. i.e the result of a vote is ultimately believed to be correct and winner/winning argument is the one supported by most people voting for it. Whether 'you' personally believe is to be correct is immaterial to the result. Rightly or wrongly we (thankfully) live in country of free speech and ideas, which we are allowed to express. So let the bedwetters, wrist slasher, moaners, groaners, pessimists, doom and gloom merchants all have the day in the sun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longeatonram2020 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Changed my mind thinking this could be quite an underwhelming transfer window. Give it a few weeks and it could be one of the best ones we’ve had for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FindernRam Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 They say with age comes Wisdom! Well I'm elderly and Wisdom is here (avoiding, saying Wisdom has come) so why change my mind! I enjoy the football debates but largely I still maintain my starting position albeit possibly less extreme. The debate elsewhere on depression opened my eyes and increased understanding.

JustOneBiblicalKazim Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 There was a moment when I knew that Rowett was never gonna be the guy, we go 2-0 down in 2 huge games back to back and in both his first substitution was JAMIE HANSON. I can remember when Assombalonga made it 2 and I jokingly said “bet he brings on Hanson”, looked back at the pitch and there he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
