“Every club I’ve been at there’s a bit of pain and when you get through it it’s so worth it.”
The pain lasted 2 years as I remember.

Well I would use the term mentally ill but there’s definite some kind of narcissism going on.

Yes, I’d say narcissism and self delusion.

 

[Dr. Winston]

Once he gets the sack from Rangers he's maybe got one more Championship job left in him I reckon. Some club owner somewhere will be mad enough to think that the Southampton promotion was down to him and not the parachute payments.

Once he screws that up he'll be battling Garry Monk for lower league scraps.

And it wasn't so worth it either.

Apparantly the symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder, which IS a mental ilness, are:-

• A pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior)
• A constant need for admiration
• A lack of empathy for others..

Quite spooky.

Sadly, I dont have the skill or will to superimpose his stupid gurning, look at my hair, chops on it.

 

[swansvalleyjack]

But look at the stats guys, what is entertainment or winning compared to those

"The passing style being adopted under Martin meant centre-half John Souttar attempted 131 passes in this game, the highest of any player in the opening two weekends, the team overall attempted 709, again the highest of any team"

Forget about him guys,he's long gone and history.

 

[Copamundial]

This all day long, was so crap yet we have an eight page thread about him!!

 

[CurtessECarr]

I've tried but he's my Freddie Kruger.

 

[cadleigh]

Sadly I fear people will be saying same thing about Sheehan in few weeks.

What, that he throws players under the bus and never accepts responsibility for himself? Unlikely, as one of the things that people like about Sheehan is his honesty and willingness to be self-critical.

 

[Neath_Jack]

Sadly I fear people will be saying same thing about Sheehan in few weeks.

Some have been calling for that for weeks already. They’ll tell you that they don’t want him to fail, but they do so that they can say they were right all along.

Sad state of affairs.

 

[bakajack]

I've tried but he's my Freddie Kruger.

One two Russy's coming for you
Three four never his fault that we're poor
Five six possession statistics
Seven eight his style you must appreciate
Nine ten you'll never win again

 

[Swanjaxs]

It's the process init.

 

[Andrew - North Hill]

Must admit, as much as I loathe Russy even I thought he couldn't possibly screw things up in a two horse race. For once I appear to have overestimated him.

It's not really been a two horse race since they were wound up and had to start again in Division 4.

They managed to pinch one title under Gerrard but that was thanks to Covid and the fact that Celtic thought it was a good idea to bring back the dinosaur Neil Lennon. Either side of that they haven't really had a sniff at winning the league.

I'd imagine in 10 years time Celtic not only will have overtaken them for league titles but they'd have put quite a distance between them too.
