Ok I get it Andrew, you don't like Sheehan but his side is 7 unbeaten, in the 4th round of a league cup, our best start to a season for at least five years and 7th in the Championship.

One day you'll get over missing Matt Grimes because frankly we dont miss him at all - the (minimum) three midfielders we have who are better than him prove that

Not liking Sheehan is like hating Alan Curtis or hoping Bambi’s mother takes a bullet (apologies if that was a spoiler…). He’s literally the most likeable manager we’ve ever had.
Williams - not likeable
Duff - not likeable
Martin - not likeable
Cooper - not likeable
I could go on but you get the picture. Even legendary managers like Laudrup and Rodgers obviously had massive egos and were not really that likeable. Adorable, but not likeable.

I think that’s actually harsh on Williams - I think he was extremely likeable and honest.

I really wanted it to work for him… sadly he was a little out of his depth

Bit difficult to lose 6-1 when the opposition only has 3 shots on target mind...

I respect that you're actually responding to posts tonight (and only logging in under the one username for once), but you're still shit at this trolling thing.

Who are you ?
Honestly, never noticed you post before

He always looked cross to me. I wished him well as a manager, but I wouldn’t have wanted to go for a beer with the guy. Plus I think he generally was quite honest much of the time but I’ve seen plenty of posts where people have said he threw players under the bus so that’s not good.

I'd always look cross too if my results were that wobbly!

We definitely have a discernible style of play.

High intensity, win the ball back quickly, high up the field.

Don’t feel were there yet with out attacking style of play, but 9 times out 10 it’s infinitely more exciting than under Williams and Martin

With respect (and I mean that, MM) - that's 'simply' not good enough for a Cloob that's steeped in proper innovative, leading, bleeding edge differentiation. That's what the likes of Grimbsy do.

Our Cloob has far more depth, differentiation and discernible identity - it's our USP, has been always will be

Sheeezy ain't giving us a USP, it's the quality of our richly assembled players who are stepping up to give us that, most likely despite Sheeezy not because of him, by all accounts

Last 16 I will take
Grimsby or
Wrexham v Reading or
Wigan v Wycombe

Would be great to have another final match even if its only a Quarter Final

Just caught the last ten minutes OMFG

I caught the last half-hour.

Wonderful.

Spot on Dapsy, we SO rode our luck and managed a smash n grab in the dying embers.

Picking faults is a must in our ongoing lurch towards the Next Level.

Top posters like yourself should feel free enough to speak up and openly express your feelings about our faults and hefty, weighty negatives.

So, what would you say our weighty negatives are right now ?

Having to read another of your tedious posts gets my vote as a weighty negative right now. Please go to bed.

Quorum, quorum, quorum, quorum

You've spelled Quim incorrectly

I nearly did my back in running around the room when we scored at the end.

My wife broke a set of glasses.. thankfully a cheap set of reading glasses that she was holding.
