Day Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 I was expecting this link to appear. Eustace sacked. Rooney takes over. Warne under fan pressure. Eustace ex Derby. Bing bong bash, we have an article to fill a quiet Wednesday morning. JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta, Taribo, nogbad van 50 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roboto Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 I wouldn't be against the appointment if the job was available, but at the moment we have a manager and last night we had a big improvement in performance and result. Lets try and support the turnaround and see how the team do over the next few games. Premier ram, archram, Cb1289 and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadAmster Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Football Insider. Yet another of those click bait sites that only exist to make money from online advertising revenue. I wouldn't give any of them the time of day. admira 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuwtfly Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 (edited) Bizarre timing on this article. Maybe they meant to post it last night predicting another defeat. Then we won 4-0 and they had to change it around a bit... Also did anyone else have a mini heart attack when they saw that @Big Travhad started a thread called "John Eustace" 🤣 Edited November 1, 2023 by Nuwtfly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the impression Eustace is a proper pragmatist and understands how to get the best out of what he's got, whatever it may be. Remember Eddie Howe's Burnley team? They played horrible, time wasting anti-football because that's the style that suited their squad at the time. That's quite clearly not now Howe sets up a team with good players, however.

Kernow Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Have Football Insider ever reported anything accurately as an exclusive? Genuine question. Websites like that either seem to repost stories from reputable sources, or make things up and hope some of it sticks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don’t generally tend to “make things up” as if they get found to be doing this on multiple occasions they lose their Newsnow access and drop down the Google search engine menus. These sorts of stories almost always come from somebody’s agent, and it’s THEM that do the making up bit! Kernow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These sorts of stories almost always come from somebody’s agent, and it’s THEM that do the making up bit! I listened to that Twitter ITK Fabrizo on a podcast being interviewed, said he gets his info from players, clubs, agents etc. but it takes a while to build up trust and won't just publish something without checking the story first. Outlets like Football Insider are a little more open to publishing anything they can get their hands on, this could be Eustace's agent feeding them a line and they have just ran with it. This is what separates the trash from the decent journalists like your John Percy who I'm sure hears more than he publishes. What do you value more, money or credibility I guess.

TomTom92 Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Maybe we’ve held talks and then Bristol sacked Pearson and trumped us. Then for some bizarre reason they’ve ran with the story anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then for some bizarre reason they’ve ran with the story anyway? Suspect, as has been suggested, that this is Eustace’s agent trying to hurry along Bristol City into making a decision. Eustace might have 2/3 job offers on the table and therefore doesn’t want to wait too long on City to make a decision.

Although if I was the Bristol City chairman I’m not sure I’d see that story and feel the need to rush in to a decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were it not for the fact that he is an ex Derby player, I doubt he would be even being mentioned as a potential replacement for Warne. I'd wager that a number of the people touting him on here have never watched a single Birmingham game with him in charge. One good point if he did come here as manager is that, if things were going wrong, the fans could wheel out the affectionate nickname of John Useless, that he was given during his first playing spell with us.
