Are crumbling by the week.
I know tonight is on AN but he's not alone in deserving criticism.
Wonder if we'll have a video from Tricky this week on the back of no wins in 4?

The club shall endeavour to populate the changing room with Cultural Architects
We need to turn the ground into a Sonic Cathedral of Sound
Players as Warrior Monks not afraid to play in an inverted converted 'W' formation of passion
Thou shalt not covet the assistant referee
Forgot the 5th one

One thing the club get absolutely spot on is the timing of the meet the manager nights. They're always when we've had a few wins.
Imagine if we'd got one this week!

Reading a couple of quotes from Martin does make me worry, have we appointed David Brent?
The owners just don't seem to have the nous to appoint people with the desire and ability to win

Perhaps he meant pillows…..after all, they are nice and comfy which is what the players and managers enjoy so much.

I thought I'd give it watch last night. After 2 minutes in the Mrs said do we really have to watch this it's boring, to which I agreed.

Livin la Vida loca’s latest FM save is going monumentally tits up. Another charlatan our inept board have had their pants taken down by.
Johnny boy needs to start listening to some football people n not his bet 365 buddies.

We should be like Doctor Who and bring back former Pillocks in an multi-shit-Stoke manager anniversary edition of "The Five Pillocks" Pillocks Prime: Jones, Rowett, Lambo. I cant bring myself to call MoN a Pillock so i'll go retro old school and bring back CotterillGuest Pillock: Kamara (he is fun so hologram cameo only at the start) Most screen time would of course be given to current hotseat Pillock: AN |

Off the pitch and behind the scenes we are doing plenty of good things. There are still things to improve…club shop merchandise for example.
All that said, it’s all irrelevant if the fare on the pitch is crap. That’s the be all and end all and everything is undermined by the manager and the team on the pitch. Something has to give at some point.

Tricky Ricky still 'helicoptering around and zooming in' when required.
I've done a whole tonne of these corporate courses which are little more than psycho babble and Ricky is the first person I have ever seen who takes any of it seriously to the point of parroting this utter bollocks.
He's completely crackers!

The blokes got the easiest job in the world. If it goes tits up, blame the manager and he gets the sack. If it goes well, it’s all down to his “five pillars”. I have to wonder where the accountability lies in these kind of roles, the lines of responsibility are very blurry. |

Always on the manager is where the blame goes. Just how John wants it. They need to get a proper DoF in and create the environment for them to go and pick managers who suit the style we as a club want to play. And stop this hit and hope manager after manager bollox. Its proven it isn't working and only will when they fluke one. Pulis spoiled them and did the whole shooting match for them. They've been lost ever since apart from the 3 good years from Sparky. And let's face it Sparky inherited Pulis's spine. But soon lost control of the discipline despite the great football. And we all know what's happened this last 6 years. Depressingly predictable. |

Ok but what if they can’t pick a decent DoF either? If they can’t recruit a decent manager, or sign decent players, where’s he coming from? It just seems like a very cushy number to me with no clear accountability. |

It just seems like a very cushy number to me with no clear accountability. My point is the philosophy has to change. Don't wait for a manager to come and put his philosophy in place, create your own and put the working inside the club with decent senior management. Then you hire managers when required with all that in mind. That way we know on the whole the ongoing recruitment is pretty much what any new manager will want barring the odd few. Got to be better than this constant rebuilding and 20 signings in a window guess work bollox🤔 |

But sadly a very dangerous one since he appears to have AN in his back pocket and carte blanche over everything. We need him gone, quick smart, as they say in the USA. |
