Peter Coates was impressed with his knowledge of our squad, well welcome to the reality of Lesley Mark Hughes's legacy Paul.

Probably optimistic that there's something to work with...

I'm imagining he'll get home and think 'fucking hell, I'm managing Stoke!'
And then he'll say to himself...
'fucking hell'

As much as I think Eddie is a decent guy I think he needs to go and Lambert start afresh with his team & staff. He will be thinking we need a massive injection of pace in midfield & up front..

Something along the lines of ‘how the hell do I get a side fit and teach a lot of basic defending in 4 days’ !

Looking at his face he is probably thinking I can’t wait to get some defensive training into that shower of shit

Still bewildered as to the fact he’s actually landed this job, and devastated when he goes to open the warchest and finds nothing in there other than a Dominos leaflet, a moth ball and a picture of Hughes, with an imprint of Coates’s penis on it.

I hope he thinks fuck me that defence is a balls up, left back needed desperately and who the feck is that pensioner in midfield.

First 2 goals were very good goals that should have had someone challenging them both, that's positioning though and can be drilled in to them
We're definitely not hopeless, i'd say a Left back like Bauer, a midfielder to replace Fletcher and a Striker that can strike should be on his mind at the moment
There's a difference between losing 3-0 and getting battered 3-0, we could very easily have gone in 2-2 at the break had Ireland been sharper, definitely something to work with as far as Lambert should be concerned

Worried about our fitness because there isn't much he can do for it at this stage of the season. Otherwise he may be rather pleased though.

I hope he’s thinking,
“I’ve been gifted a great job and one I hardly deserve based on my record. But I’m quite excited now and Ill pay back the chairman’s faith in me by keeping up this disorganised, unfit, shambles of a squad with some basic footballing nous. “ oh and Peter I need about £40m this window on 4 key players. You’ve got no left back, no striker and you need at least one possibly two centre mids
“ see you at Clayton Wood at 7am

He's probably confused because he's had all out abuse, all day, from all forms of social media yet our great away fans sing his name for 10 minutes!

I hope so but I have my doubts.

I think if peiters can get back I think we can limp trough the rest of the season with fullbacks I think a defensive centre mid and as you say a centre forward we can just scrape by

He's definitely not had a single moment to study social media and he should stay away from it in the next 2½ years. He's never going to get any help from this lot. I can only imagine that he's thinking things can get a lot better from now on.

I hope so but I have my doubts. If he walked in to an interview and told Coates why we're shit i'd hope he'd have the balls to be very clear about what's needed to stop us being shit Old pete needs to understand that this is shit hitting the fan time and not something that can be fixed cheaply

I hope he isn't having a George Burley moment! I would lay a bet on him thinking why the fuck has Mark and his team spent £18 million on that lard arsed pussy Wimper, wait until he see's the other two of our £50 million investment in action

Only a million? He deserves ten if he can keep this utter myopic abortion of a team up.
