Like I said still has exactly the same problems that Burnett had. And you know it.

Has everyone crossed out 9th place on their Arnu Bingo card now?

Were you slagging still off when he won the conference or got us into league 1? No.

Yeah I did.

I had 'budget', '9th place', 'it was only bants', 'roof' and 'jonny hoof'

Yeah, he got recruited as a scout for Portsmouth soon after leaving us.

It's a part time position like all scouts. He will still be picking up his full wage and will continue to do so, no doubt those made redundant at the end of the season due to our relegation won't be so fortunate.

Who will be made redundant?

Last time we were close to relegation we were told there would be no funding for the academy sides and so the staff involved with that would lose their jobs.

Nope,but your allowing him to sit 9 points adrift and just blame it on Wayne(something Still isn't saying privately or publicly by the way)is ridiculous.You actually think its ok to have a mmanger with no responsibility because the previous guy struggled.Come and run one of my companies,i could do with going bankrupt.

I think you'll find that I've said he isn't doing brilliant, but pointed out he's doing better than Burnett with the squad Burnett put together. I did think it was too difficult a concept for you to grasp, it wasn't fair of me to ask you to try to understand. I'm sorry. Try to rest now.

Player of the Season.... Is there one... Seriously ?. Maybe O'Brien has a shout at the moment.

I reckon Passley has to be in with a shout too. He's been the only player that seems to be trying outfield recently

Just got in, an eighteen hour affair, and well done to everybody else who ventured into that stand today. Feel yet again why we went so free fall almost from kick-off and some said no but strongly believe it was a penalty, you just cant weigh all over opposite player in the box without repercussions , but the second coming so close afterwards, shocking stuff. We did actually come out second half upped the tempo very well but within a half minute gap after ten or so at the back Pools were up the other end and curtains 3-1 and no way back then. We need to lay it on the table and demand who wants to play for this club and more importantly why has it been so long correcting, and well bought up previous, not having a born Captain and leader has cost us heaps, cant see us getting anything but a beating Tuesday night, Accy good chance but think were be down by Pompey's match. The only thing today that was truly a great experience again the banter and few jars with the Pools fans and some marvelous watering holes.

Think Zavon Hines would end up getting my vote for player of the season. Only one of them that hasn't had a moment during a game of complete and utter ineptness haha

Player of the season? For me Passley, Doidge and Labadie must be in contention despite the latter returning after the season already began.

Labadie with no runners up for me.

What arnu said.

1st Labadie
2nd Doidge
3rd Passley

no player of the bloody year.

Labadie.
