Bettis Speaks

[Varkanoid]

Looks gutted keeps looking at his shoes too which is odd

Thats where his script is written on his socks.

 

[BlairBlade]

So you’re blaming Wilder for all this?

Well obviously not for my position on my socks. He’s not the Messiah, you know.
Maybe it is Wilder’s fault for Bettis spending so much time during his interview looking at his odd shoes.
Odd I know.

 

[Chabuddy G]

He made sly remarks like that at Palace and Leeds as well. And like you say, his behaviour at the Cardiff match said it all.
Chris will get the best reception a former manager or player has ever seen, I know that much.

Yep. I think he’ll either take the Celtic job or take a year out so don’t suspect it’ll be next season but when it happens it’ll actually be quite awkward for whoever our manager is at the time

 

[ZoneManWilf]

I've seen some incompetence in the boardroom of SUFC but putting Bettis up with a "Busy time at the Lane" takes the biscuit.

The only conclusion one can draw from that is that the owner sacked Chris but hasn't got the nerve to tell us himself - or why!

Indeed
"A busy period at Bramall Lane"?!

Fucking hell.

 

[BlairBlade]

So the delay was negotiating socks in lieu for Knilly?

Is Knilly a sockman?
I must go and have a chat with him.
Unless of course he’s off to Celtic Park.

I wonder (hope) if Abdullah will sell SUFC when he realises he is going to have lost hundreds of millions of pounds when we don't get promoted next season. You don't get promotion by getting rid of a top manager and replacing him with Tindall who got sacked from his last job after a few months. Abdullah is even worse than Chansiri! (Sorry, I forgot we are not allowed to criticise the board. Obviously Abdullah is our best owner ever!)

 

[S64 Blade]

Weird interview. I look in better nick and I’ve been drinking all evening.

 

[Sean Thornton]

Walked into that one

walked?

 

[RecordBreakers]

What investment? Premier league prize money

Still has to be invested back into the club ffs

 

[Bladesman]

Bettis doesn't look too happy. Him and Chris seemed to have a good working relationship.

 

[s4-blade]

Fucking rat.

Get in the don

 

[Yogi]

walked?

Tripped

 

[Alf Tuppers Shorts]

FXxk does that mean he’s related to the Queen of Dumplings Diane Abbot.

 

[Paddy1]

Maybe he’s got a hole in em

Or he’s just telling fibs cos old Princey’s told him to

 

[Harry's Game]

He couldn’t look more nervous if he’d been invited to a meeting at the Saudi embassy

 

[Bladedog]

Still has to be invested back into the club ffs

What..to buy the property ? Use his own money..oh forgot..he ain't got any..FFS

We ain’t replaced him with Tindall but don’t let facts stop your narrative

Not that bad yet he's better than mccabe but money wise not that much. Also Tindall is only here until end of season people reacting like he's permanent manager

 

[Sean Thornton]

Tripped

Whoosh

 

[YorkBlade]

The board are due some real hammer in the coming days, imo.

Jason Tindall and his whole family are also massive Hammers fans

 

[Shrblade]

Should be enlightening

Enlightening? Pathetic more like. He is a lightweight.

 

[Hartley Hare]

I am no employment lawyer, but given the apparent desire from the board for a director of football position to be created, and recent comments against this from Chris, maybe his hand was forced?

Is this in effect constructive dismissal, with a mutual agreement and golden goodbye to avoid a later compensation claim?

[Bladezz]

Worst interview I’ve ever seen.

 

[Rodley]

Weird interview. I look in better nick and I’ve been drinking all evening.

Got a right stare on.

 

[west_yorks_blade]

Weasel words from someone clearly embarrassed to be nominated to deliver them.

Jason Tindall

From Wiki

"Tindall was appointed as manager of AFC Bournemouth on a permanent basis, following the club's relegation from the Premier League. He signed a three year contract with the club.[16] On 12 September 2020, Tindall took charge of his first competitive match for Bournemouth, opening the season with a 3–2 victory over Blackburn Rovers.[17]
Following a run of poor results at the start of 2021, Tindall was sacked on 3 February 2021, with the club eight points outside automatic promotion places.[18]"

Sacked after 5 months - hope he's a better coach than a manager

 

[Robboblade1889]

I mean.. the prince came out and literally said "he'll be the manager even if we don't win a single game" so.. begs the question.

Dane is it absolutely conceivable that Wilder the man who don’t forget orchestrated our ride is in the right here? I know you planted you flag as I have done but this is a complete shit show. Bettis is very good when interviewed previously this looks like a bloke who has been shoved out there with a script. Only time will tell but I think you and a few other in here will reflect in this in 12 months and realise what a catastrophic error is was.

 

[007]

Don’t trust this man

 

[S64 Blade]

Got a right stare on.

Me or Bettis?
