DCFC1388 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Genuinely thought Cocu would be the man to get us up and this season too, especially with how he dealt with everything off the field last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinder Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I thought Nigel Pearson was the perfect manager for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GboroRam Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Can't wait to see Przymislaw Kaczmierczak play. International pedigree signing in the middle of our usual uninspiring Clough jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I thought Pearson,whilst not someone I particularly liked (either his brand of football or personality) would probably get us promoted. watching our pre season game against Walsall was so horrific,I knew within 45 minutes I was wrong.

I am Ram Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 "Smith out !!, Smith out !! , Smith out !!" Me and a few other thousand fans, chanting after losing to Barnsley at Oakwell. Luckily Lionel kept his man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agadirram Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Despair when I heard we had signed Franny Lee. I also have to admit that when my mother told me that we had signed someone called "Gemmill or something like that" , I thought we had signed Tommy Gemmell.

Took the whole family to see that FA Cup game against Chesterfield. Suspected something might be up when he was withdrawn at half time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve How Hard? Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I thought Chris Martin would be universally revered for his service for us but now the mere mention of his name sends some into melt down. Whilst being perplexed by this, I'm happy to admit I was wrong. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbles Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I thought Chris Martin had passed it. I thought Cocu was going to get us promoted. I thought CKR was terrible. I thought Jack Marriott would eventually come good. I thought Mike Te Wierik would be a perfect Keogh replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mucker1884 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I'm not the most opiniated by nature, as some on here may have noticed? That's not a deliberate ploy, to avoid showing myself up on here... I'm more than capable of doing that without offering a strong opinion! But I have to say, I truly thought Cocu would be "The one". It was only gut instinct, but it was much more than blind faith. Still gutted now, that it didn't work out... but it was so the right thing to do to relieve him of his duties. I'm thinking the exact opposite for Rooney. But as each game passes, and each interview is noted, I must say, I am very much warming to him. Hopefully, the subsequent outcome from his tenure will make up for my Cocu-related disappointment! I also had the opportunity of regular visits to Old Trafford (with a schoolmate and his dad, who were both season ticket holders), back in the mid to late '70's, but decided to stick with my local team. I think it's safe to say that, with how the next 4 decades panned out, at least I got that one right! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rammeister Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 1) Jim Smith - why would we want him? How wrong I was!! 2) Derek Hales - As a child I was beyond excited that we had signed the bearded Charlton goal machine. 3) Nigel Pearson - I was very optimistic that his ‘tough’ management would sort us out.
