Congratulations Nigel Clough

[FriethBlade]

Taking a Mickey Mouse team to the championship. All the Adkins apologists on here will claim it was Hasselbanks team but if you hadn't gone up they'd have been crowing it was your fault !

Well done Adkins on playing the kids in midfield...oh I forgot you didnt, Hammond , Woolford and Coutts justified your team selection

 

[Bladesman]

Just...only just taking them up.

Anyway congrats to him maybe he can come and collect some of the shit he left behind here.

 

[Finn Keane o' Balmaqueen]

Best thing for us.

Beard's on his way already to the Keepmoat.

He's even failed with Burton, given that he seemingly did his best to fuck them up.

Fuck Clough and his fanboys.

2 points off champions just?

Yeah I should think Adams and Brayford will be on his shopping list...then Adkins can spunk the money on more 30+ year olds with no legs

Im sure we would have taken that just only just mind
just 19 more points than Adkins got

Do you think Wigan did well?

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Yes, congratulations Nige. You've come into a decent set-up with a settled confident team inheriting something that didn't need changing, and delivered the results that over the course of the season would have seen that team finish in the lower parts of the playoffs. Luckily, the points tally you inherited meant that this was still enough.

 

[Rodley]

Send him Coutts CV

 

[YES Blade]

Fuck Clough and his boring anti football

 

[Roygbiv]

Surely nobody can think Clough has done anything but hinder Burton since he's been there. None up front next season for the Brewers

 

[northsomersetblade]

I reckon Burton will get 20 points next year, when the Clough magic kicks in

 

[Harry's Game]

Well done Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink for giving Burton such a head start that even a bozo like Clough could not quite fuck it up.

 

[Tyler Durden]

Do you think Wigan did well?

Did he take them up too? Blimey.

 

[Bladesman]

Fuck Clough and his boring anti football

Donny go down to 9 men and Clough brings a defender on.

 

[nowtfancy]

Did he take them up too? Blimey.

No.
Just wondered how people reconcile their thoughts that Wigan have done a good job at getting out of the league while clough fucks up at burton to finish 2 points behind them.

Bear with me while I scroll down the league to where we have moved on to.

Whilst you're there check Hasselbainks record....

 

[mosbolad]

Same points as us over the last 10 games, 14.

F#ckin well done Clough and your sycophants!

 

[blade too long]

Whilst you're there check Hasselbainks record....

were they promoted when Hasselbaink left early december

he saw them over the line
Adkins never got near the line
or the play offs

hasselbaink got 42 points clough 43

Erm... who else's fault would it have been had they not gone up? Hasselbaink's?

They've undeniably gone backwards under Clough (and become incredibly boring) yet they've somehow rode their luck and clung on. It's a pitiful reflection of the division. Nothing could prove how poor it is more than Burton getting promoted.

Adkins didn't take over a team already pissing the league....

....Here to help.

 

[Roygbiv]

I'm stunned people seem to think he's done well there. He has picked up as many points as Adkins over the past 10 games with a team that was flying when he came in

I can only imagine people don't realise he hasn't been there all season

 

[metalblade]

Well that's one less relegation slot Rotherham have to worry about next season.

 

[Ricky]

It goes through me when I think back to that home defeat to them. Those points got them up. Couldn't have just beat Burton and drawn with Walsall could we? Or even drawn with them both, or just Burton... FFS!

Looking forward to seeing them flounder in the Championship all season though. 24th spot is already sewn up. Be surprised if they score more than 30 goals.

hasselbaink got 42 points
clough 43 of their 85
diss him all you like
he will be facing Aston Villa and Newcastle next season when we are playing Northampton thanks to Adkins
Adkins didnt get near 43 points in half a season

 

[Roygbiv]

They will be hilarious next season. I feel for their fans because once the novelty of the championship wears off they will die of boredom.

They'll genuinely be wishing they stayed in League One.

6 months versus 3 months.

Even for you that's weak.

august sept october november and 1st game in december is 3 months now
clough took over in december
and one game in may is not a month of games

he left after 20 games when on 41 points to be exact
clough has won 44 points in 26
was all he needed
still far more than Adkins managed for us
