I certainly didnt expect us to get anything from this game. But I fear for a total collapse in the second half. We have little option to change either. Even with 5 in the middle we're over run and leaving huge gaps. Like I say, didnt expect anything, but its a stark reminder just how far we've fallen away.

Good signing if it goes through. Not ensure whether im encouraged by CH's ackowledgement that he knows we need to strengthen still, or if its acceptance that nowt else will happen. Have to get a forward imo and ideally someone with pace.

Fixed Actually tbf, you weren't writing him off but though I quoted your post I was also referring to some of the tone in previous threads. Still amused by the reply though, fucking hell -

Would you write someone off as a manager after 6 games? Fuck me I dont think whatever he done that game we'd have turned it around, we were destined for relegation the moment KK had to walk from being fucked over by MA. The club was in the worst state going through the worst turmoil in a long time. The only person to blame for us going down in my eyes was MA. As for Shearer, it's a long time before he can be judged as a manager (assuming he takes up the reigns some time). As a player, the figures speak for themselves. I also wish we had him 2 seasons earlier and arguably he came to us when we were on a high. That should have been the final piece in the Jigsaw and done forget what a partnership he and Les started to form. Awesome is an understatement. But, we know what happened next. KK left as the club were floated, Shearer injured and Les sold. KD dismanted the side that was never to recover until Robson came. Despite the at times woeful sides we had out, Shearer was always our top scorer and made a much larger contribution than just the goal tally suggests at times single handedly dragging us through games. Sure, he maybe played on a season too long, but then perhaps that itself only delayed the inevitable as what we had to offer after his departure was some of the worst since we came in the premiership. It was often said that he held the team back as he was the sole importance of the side. Yeah, like we always really flew when he wasn't in eh. -

Still not seen it actually. I take it I should? -
Yep, spreadsheets, databases, websites etc. all really simple stuff. What A levels did you do? Accounts, Maths, Computing (did 1st year of geography and psychology as well but found both boring), never bothered with any of them in truth i was 17 and couldn't be fucked and knew i could pass exams with minimal work when i needed to (i basically read things once and can remember it), didn't bother sitting any of my a-levels bar computers which ironically they couldn't read my abysmal handwriting (which was fair enough i could barely read it, writing at exam speed made it a pain in the arse to keep legible and they wouldn't let me type it). lol actually was walking into my psychology exam and got to the door and thought "i cannot be fucked sitting here getting hand cramp for two hours" turned around and went to see enemy at the gates...rather have had the hand cramp with hind sight. So never bothered with uni and just went to work instead, few years of generic clerical work and keeping my eye out for i.t posts, eventually one came out with criteria of degrees or certain accreditation's. Picked out one of the accreditation they needed, paid a few hundred quid to sit the exam for it without taking the course, passed it first attempt. That got me to the aptitude test phase for the job, came 3rd out of a couple thousand in that (which as my mate who met me for lunch after the test still can't believe how highly i scored as i hadn't slept in 3days and my eyes were bloodshot etc was dead on my feet tbh). Came in the top panel for the interviews (don't find out actual placing for it but top 5 anyways out of couple hundred going for 30 posts), which got me the job. like i said if you don't have the letters after your name you need to know your stuff and get a really lucky break, which thankfully i did with the timing, i doubt it'd be possible to do the same now. Jesus you must be smart then. Don't you regret now not actually sitting those exams but? regret not going to Uni aye more for the experience than the outcome although it would make going for jobs easier than it is now (no degree for me means building up the "or X yrs experience" angle for shortlisting) then i don't know if i'd have the same job as i do now if i did, guess it'd be likely i'd have something similar going on how my mate has ended up down the same sort of path. Never know though, atm i'm the youngest in my office by about 5yrs, rest are all uni grads or in the job/dept for 15yrs+, all my group of friends went to uni only really one of which (the one above) earns more than me, some would be a good 6k a year or more less. Either way happy enough where i am for the moment, do the job i said i wanted to do as a kid (not making mario games mind) and i'm well paid for it, been thinking about taking an O.U degree just to see if i could get one tbh, and with one of those it means i can batter through it quicker than it's intended. Well least you ended up with a job that pays well and that you enjoy. is jobs in the I.T sector hard to get? Yes, they is.
