Good point :)

Not sure if his argument with the director was during the 1955-56 season when we got relegation but he did lead Man City to win the league in 1968, the FA Cup in 1969, the League Cup and the Cup Winners Cup in 1970. Managed England in Summer 1974

Mercer, like Bruce and the failed Martin Peters, saw the Blades as a stepping stone to better things (from their perspective) and IMO there was no way they would have remained loyal, when a better offer presented itself.

Fast forward to today. No one, but no one can criticise Nigel on his loyalty to the clubs he has managed. IMO he has been a little premature in assembling a squad capable of playing in the league above ,but who are unlikely to gain promotion to that league .. However, as every man and his dog knows, a couple of big hairy arsed attackers could turn it around. Note Nige by big ,I mean well over six feet. tall, fed on raw meat and released from captivity for the duration of the game. Or just normal family men who can produce the fecking goods PLEASE.

This is a myth. This team would not do better in the league above. Have you watched Championship football recently? The players are fitter and faster than in league one. They would eat our scrappy non scoring midgets alive.

What Clough has assembled is a team that cannot compete physically and doesn't score many goals. It is incredible that he has signed so many central midfielders (to give just one example) and not a single one of them scores goals. It is a gigantic waste of resources.

And yes, we have beaten some PL teams in Cups. That's very admirable, and all of those wins were deserved. But that's a very small sample size.
 
I can't believe this petulant and pointless thread, started with no intention other than to provoke a response, is still open.

Threads like this ruin the forum.

It flies in the face of the forum's no name calling and no personal attack rules, but because it was started by Silent Blade, this seems to be fine. 

Oh, and despite not giving the most witty or intelligent response, at least mark hones managed to spell "you're" correctly.

This place is becoming a petty, insult ridden playground where poor grammar is taking over.

When twats attack other twats retaliate. If you want to defend a twat it's up to you.

There is nothing worse than an overeaction by a small minority to a bad defeat!

I'm not trying to defend anybody. If saying his post wasn't the most witty or intelligent is defending him, well, you wouldn't want to be in the trenches with me, hey? :)

Besides, much like in real life, everyone on here's twats. Other than me, of course, I'm just an arsehole. ;)
 
Fuck you all, you fucking girls. I'll have the lot of you. Come on then.... Come on..!!!

Au contraire, petulant overreaction to the overreaction is, in my view, worse. It just wastes board space by making no point other than trying to start an argument.
Latters, do you think anyone (who has no professional football experience) is being a genius for telling Mr Baki or Mr Phipps that Clough has done things wrong??

I don't think they're "being a genius", no. Do you think they shouldn't have the right to make such comments without being referred to as "know alls"?

Are you of the opinion that because someone who has no professional football experience, they have no ability to judge whether Clough has done things wrong?
